6 editor picks in Miami.
6 rooftop bars in Miami our editors have drunk at, sorted by score. All Miami nightlife.
Sugar on the 40th floor of EAST Miami at Brickell City Centre is the Asian-tropical garden rooftop, lush planting around the deck and panoramic skyline views across Brickell and the bay.
TipNo reservations; arrive before 19:00 weeknights or expect to queue for the elevator. Weekend lines are easier earlier.
Rosa Sky on the 22nd floor of the AC and Element Hotel Brickell is the dual-brand rooftop lounge with panoramic Magic City views, a street-facing elevator and a small plates and cocktails menu.
TipTake the SW 1st Court elevator straight to the roof. Reserve via OpenTable for sunset; happy hour drinks land before 19:00.
Astra on NW 2nd Avenue is the Wynwood rooftop that opened above the mural district, an open-air Mediterranean lounge with hookah, a long bar and skyline views across Midtown to the Edgewater high-rises.
TipReserve via OpenTable for prime sunset windows. The hookah service is part of the experience; weekends enforce a smart-casual dress code.
Serena on the Moxy South Beach roof is the Mexican-Latin rooftop pool bar on Washington Avenue, bougainvillea climbing the walls of an open-air patio with palm shadows over the daybeds.
TipReserve via OpenTable for daybed and pool access. Sunday brunch from 11:30 is the easier window than weekend nights.
The Living Room at Cipriani Downtown Miami is the lush terrace lounge above the ICON Brickell waterfront restaurant, a Bellini bar on a planted deck with Biscayne Bay running south past the windows.
TipOpen Wednesday to Saturday 19:00-02:00. The bar is the easier walk-in; tables require the restaurant reservation downstairs.
Broken Shaker in the Freehand Miami Beach courtyard is the Bar Lab cocktail program that brought Spirited Awards hardware and World's 50 Best recognition to a tucked-away brick-lined patio off Indian Creek.
TipOpen daily from 17:00; happy hour runs early evening. The garden patio is the seat; the indoor bar is the rainy-night fallback.
