Over the Charles Rooftop Bar

The best reason to come here is the view, and here's what you need to know about that. Only the tables along the outer walls have a view of the river. You can see the Boston skyline from all of the tables, but not the scenic river. What's more, they refused to seat our party of 2 at any of the perimeter tables, saving them all for larger parties. If you're a party of 2 and you arrive later than 5:00, don't count on getting a good seat. [I will say that the stressed out hostess did finally give us a good seat for our 6:00 reservation ... after I swore we would stay only for one cocktail and be gone by 6:30. Which we were, for the record.]

Very nice view overlooking a great part of Boston. I think it’s the most complete view of Boston you can get. However, expect to pay around $20 for a cocktail. Still worth the view though.

Amazing view of the cityscape. Pleasant ambience. The food was tasty, although a little overpriced but I guess the view compensates for that. We had ordered the korean bbq wings and Mediterranean platter for sharing, both were good. For large plates, the fried chicken sandwich, the hotdog roll and chicken flatbread were tasty. They had an elaborate drinks menu with beer, wine, cocktails and mocktails. The tequila sunrise was particularly good. Wouldn't recommend the mocktails. The staff were friendly and happily took our photos. Although there was a rush hour 90 min limit to the sitting, we were there for almost 2 hours.

We loved it! The view at night is beautiful, the service is outstanding - I asked them to bring a dessert or drink written “Happy Birthday” and they brought a cake with my boyfriends name on it and the whole experience was really great!
