Best outdoor drinking spot?

Where's the best places to catch some sun/moon and drink outdoors?
I don't mean hanging out with beer in the park, I want some music, a table and service.
So which bars are good?
I like the original Lugas for a sleazy outdoor spot where I can see all the different people that come through that dodgy little street.
Gulou Dajie bar is ok if somewhat... unmaintained. Good place to fall off the roof drunk.
I heard Danger Doyle's has a good rooftop but the service is pretty spotty? Not sure if that's true.
Where else?
I'm sick of drinking indoors.

Too bad the 5:19 is closed.
They had a good rooftop where you could basically get away with anything. Hahaha

try ObiWan in qinghai... nice rooftop by the lake. nice and quiet with good service! one thing to be noted is that it is more or less the unofficial German embassy in beijing at this point.

doyle's is nice man.
service on the rooftop is a bit slow but you can fix that by making your first order count.
here's my recipe to never getting cotton mouth on a drinking night.
order 3 draft beers to start with,
drink the first two all fast-ish like (so they dont get all warm and sh*t)
and when you start the 3rd one start looking out for the waitress
and make sure you order before you get to the middle of that 3rd one.
by the time you finish the second half of the 3rd beer, and maybe a couple of smokes,
there's more beer on the table!
(yeah, yeah, i know there's nothing genius about this whole thing)
also i wouldn't recommend going too crazy with the food there...
although some of the pizza's can lie down nicely after several beers...
or a couple of what-have-ya's,
(which by the way nobody complained about when i was there last time)
rooftop is pretty silent though so just head down when you want some music,
its actually not too bad. pretty standard rock-ish bar scene...
and yeah, what other places?
oh yeah? well, let me ask you this: shut up!

by the way, those guys at obiwan are down for lebowski nights.
call in early, let them know, at least once a week they will let it happen.
just make sure there are at least 10 people.
they got a nice big projector to watch the movie on,
rooftop with a nice view for the what-have-ya's,
white russians for like 15-20 rmb...
you get it, right?
anyone interested, pm.
i have not said no to a lebowski night since the 90's...
there's no jackie threehorn there but they do make a hell of a caucasian...
also, since im on the topic.
whos down for lebowski bowling nights?
get together, smoke a couple, shine those balls, drink them beers,
yell a couple of hundreds of "shut up's" to whoever we call donny that night...
we will not be playing for high scores
(ive broken 200 several times but 150 seems to be a curse for me),
we will be using names from the movie only,
(so no fear of forum and real life characters ever knowing each other for real)
coming over in a bathrobe and plastic sandals, highly supported.
and yes, someone will have to be maude or bunny so,
bitches are welcomed.
have a chinese friend? we need a Woo anyway!
and no, im not talking about the guys who built the railways here...
oh yeah? well, let me ask you this: shut up!
