Lounge and luxuriate at Thirteen. (Photo courtesy of Thirteen)

Ideally, we would have waited until Week 13 of Center City Sips to spotlight Thirteen Restaurant and Bar, but at we just couldn’t hold off.

Here’s the deal: Thirteen offers its seriously generous Sips menu Wednesdays through Saturdays from 4 to 7 p.m. (with a short encore on Sunday nights from 11 p.m. to 2 a.m.). That’s a lot of Sippin’!

And the space is just awesome. Located in the newly renovated lobby of the Marriott Downtown, this lounge-like spot, flanked by an outdoor terrace, is a terrific choice for mingling over cocktails and light bites. And if you stay past 7 p.m. (when Sips concludes), Thirteen will take 15% off your dinner bill.

Thirteen is also notable for its sports-spectating assets (gargantuan center TV with two smaller screens on either side), so this may be your go-to spot to watch the Phillies avenge last night’s loss to the Reds. And (knock on wood) keep Thirteen in mind come playoff time.

Here’s Thirteen’s celebrated happy hour lineup (after the jump):

Drinks:
- Draft beer ($2)
- Wine: Snap Dragon Cabernet and Chardonnay ($3)
- Cocktails: Leblon Breeze ($4) and House margarita ($5)

Appetizers:
- Contemporary American: Seasoned fries ($2.50), Wedge salad ($2.50), Pork sliders ($2.50), Cheesesteak hoagie pizza ($7)
- Caribbean twist: Jerk chicken skewers ($2.50), Beef empanadas ($2.50), Garlic chili shrimp ($6)
- Dessert: Mojito sorbet
