The Rooftop Guide | 2024

From oceanside terraces with a rooftop pool, to buzzing downtown lounges with skyline views, there is a Fort Lauderdale rooftop bar in for everyone.

Found on Florida’s southeastern coast, Ft. Lauderdale might be a bit of a smaller sibling to Miami just 25 miles south, but this beautiful beach- and canal filled city is well worth a trip on its own. And thanks to the Florida weather, you can pretty much always experience it alfresco and from above, at one of the Fort Lauderdale rooftop bars.

But which is the best rooftop bar in Fort Lauderdale? This complete guide will help you find out, packed with all info you need about each venue: opening hours, dress code, pics, maps and much more. Just scroll down and find the FTL rooftop bar best suited for you.

Rooftop @1WLO

Elevated above Fort Lauderdale’s renowned Las Olas Boulevard and the New River, the Rooftop @1WLO brings a large slice of cosmopolitan vibes to the heart of downtown. Dressed as a garden in the sky, the spacious and trendy rooftop comes with a very lush and natural decor, all surrounded by panoramic views over the FTL skyline. Up here you can enjoy a great selection of hand-crafted, ingredient-focused cocktails, a nice array of wines and a selection of chef driven and seasonal small plates and shareables, served in a swanky, laid back atmosphere.

Nubé Rooftop

Floating on the 26th floor of Hilton Fort Lauderdale Beach Resort, Nubé is the only oceanfront rooftop in FTL. Where the sky meets the ocean, this stylish and modern venue seamlessly melds indoor and outdoor seating options, opening up to breathtaking views over the ocean and skyline. Inspired by its surroundings, the rooftop menu features a whimsical selection of crafted cocktails that reflects a coastal flair, accompanied by chef-curated shareable plates. Blending lounge vibes with elevated dining, Nubé invites to a unique ‘lounge-aurant’ experience.
