The Best Rooftops in Houston for Drinking and Dining With a View

Take in spectacular views of Space City while enjoying cocktails, pizza, steak, mezcal, and so much more

In Houston, rooftop bars offer something for everyone — epic dance parties with DJs, romantic evenings under the stars, and picturesque skyline views with a buzzing atmosphere. Though pleasant spring temperatures make for the prime time to enjoy a rooftop, summer days on these sky-high, often shaded patios can feel like the perfect staycation under the sun. Add in playful cocktails and mouthwatering dishes, and it’s all the more reason to bounce from rooftop to rooftop. Whatever the occasion, consider one of these rooftop destinations for bites and booze with stellar views.

This map has been updated to include Bungalow Downtown Dining, Terrace 54 Bar + Table, and Mexican Sugar Cocina and Cantina. The now-closed bar El Big Bad has been removed.
