This is my favorite place in the Seattle area, offering a speak-easy mountain top lodge feel with climbing and ski decor. Service was friendly and accommodating. The drinks are delicious and pricey but you're paying for the exclusive 360 view of S. Heaters and blankets for the outdoor seating. Dogs allowed - should I say less!?

The drinks and the food are ok. But the view is outstanding, especially near sunset. Nice spot for a group hangout.

Love this rooftop, I went here a couple of months back. It's a nice spot to go after work, for date night, or just because. Went here on a week day, shortly after they're opening time. We enjoyed happy hour dhared the nachos and smore's and each ordered the bacon sandwich. The nachos are made in a cast iron skillet and the chips are potato chips. It was surprisingly delicious, wasn't sure how I would like kettle chips versus tortillas. Everything is a good portion size and you can definitely share. I took my sandwich to go, but I had a bite before leaving because it was nice and hot. The views of the city are amazing and there's also live music (dj) at certain time. Pricing is reasonable and the customer service is top notch.

5/5 for ambiance and one of the most unexpectedly spectacular views of Lake Washington AND South Lake Union. My group and I got there at sunset and it was breathtaking. The space as you enter the hotel is also super swanky. If I was a UW student, this would have been in rotation for fave study spots. The food is fun. Think: millennial glamping. You have a few spreads to choose from that have good dips, crackers, and pickles to others with smoked meats. The drinks were strong and delicious. The finale for us were the s'mores. Super fun and nostalgic. Roasting your marshmallows may take a while if your group is larger like ours (8). Only downer is that parking can be a bit tricky and seating may be a bit cramped if it's busy. Bonus is they're open late though - 1 am. So glad to have found out about this place.

What beautiful views! Our group of 5 made reservations for the rooftop bar in the UW Graduate hotel on a late Sunday night. The location is named The Mountaineering Club and apparently used to be a personal apartment awhile back. Now it's a beautiful 360 degree bar, restaurant with the most amazing views! We had some snacks and a few rounds of drinks and took some wonderful photos. Liese N was our server and was patient and friendly with us. Parking is difficult as it is pretty much anywhere in the U District but we found a pay lot about 2 blocks away. We loved the Campsite Spread which was a charcuterie board and not so much the Sea-Ranch popcorn (seaweed and ranch flavors. Yuck!). Others had the Butter Bean Hummus for a snack. The cocktails were pricey at about $17 each but we knew we were paying for the view as well as the drinks before going. I ended up having a few bottles of Rainier Beer at $5/bottle to help. Overall, this place has very wide ranging and spectacular views with lots of heated outdoor seating nooks. Great for drinks with a view!

I've come here a couple of times for the food and views! Usually, I don't expect much about food at rooftop bars but here is pretty good! The salmon dip was interesting as the whole salmon was a chunk so it was a little difficult to dip. Other than that, we enjoyed food and drinks. Reservation is highly recommended. Their employee would check our reservation on the first floor, and get the elevator for us. Our server was friendly and attentive. The facility was beautifully decorated and the views were perfect on a not-raining day! Parking is street parking in the Udistrict.
