When the weather is just right, there is nothing better than enjoying some food and drinks on a rooftop. Here are 15 of the best rooftops in Atlanta!
One of my personal favorite rooftops is Rooftop L.O.A.! Located in West Midtown on top of The Interlock, this rooftop has ample and comfortable seating, gorgeous skyline views, and fantastic cocktail service and bites. Plus, it’s where I hosted ATL Bucket List’s 8th Anniversary Party!
St. Julep is located on top of the Kimpton Sylvan Hotel in Buckhead, and it is such a fun and eclectic spot! Serving beautiful and colorful drinks, delicious bites, including soft-service ice cream and corn dogs, St. Julep is a must-visit rooftop.
Drink and dine at Grana! This Italian restaurant is located at Piedmont Heights, and is known for it’s wood-fired Neapolitan pizza, handmade pasta and meatball flights. With fire pits, open views, and amazing food, this rooftop is perfect to welcome spring!

Have an unforgettable evening on the Palo Santo rooftop.

Located at the Bellyard Hotel in West Midtown, this beautiful terrace is decorated with greenery and comfy chairs to relax in.
