Warsaw has 5 rooftop bars in the BarMagazine directory, and The Roof Skybar leads the pack. This guide covers the rooftop bars specifically; the full Warsaw picture, all 16 bars of it, lives on the city page. Each listing is verified, with the address, opening hours and what to order.
The Roof is a skybar on the twenty first floor of the Crowne Plaza Warsaw at Rondo Daszyńskiego, with an outdoor terrace and a wide view across the center of the city. The bar keeps its own cocktail list, divided into house creations, classics, alcohol free builds and a premium tier. House drinks include Rye and Jam with Bulleit rye, peanut butter and creme de mure, and Collapsed Collins with Chivas 12, carrot, ginger and Suze. Smoked and grilled small plates run alongside, from cauliflower skewers to a ceviche dressed with Bloody Mary. DJs play every Friday and Saturday. Entry is for adults only, and reservations are taken by email or phone.
B-Heaven is the rooftop bar of the Barceló Warsaw Powiśle, set on the fifth floor with a spacious terrace and a panorama that takes in the Vistula. Craft cocktails are prepared by the hotel's mixologists and sit beside a premium spirits and liqueur selection and a wine list built on established appellations and cava. The terrace is presented as the only one in Warsaw with a rooftop pool, which runs seasonally. The kitchen brings Polish flavors together with Italian, Asian and Mediterranean ideas, and gluten free or vegetarian menus can be arranged in advance. The room carries an industrial look that echoes the converted power station it sits above.
Ether is the rooftop bar on the nineteenth floor of the NYX Hotel Warsaw at Chmielna 71, inside the Varso Place complex beside Varso Tower. The terrace looks across the glass towers of the city center and is set up for long evenings, with comfortable sofas, sunbeds, DJ music and a list of signature cocktails. Sunsets over the capital are a large part of what the hotel sells here. The space also works for events, taking up to 150 people, with welcome drinks arranged to order. It opens daily from four in the afternoon until one in the morning, though only in good weather, which makes it effectively a spring and summer room.
Loreta is the bar on the top floor of PURO Warsaw Downtown on Widok, with a commanding view over the center of the city. Doors open at nine in the morning and stay open until one, which lets the room move from a calm afternoon aperitif through to its artisanal cocktails after dark. The current menu is put together like a setlist, every drink carrying a music inspiration tag that ranges from disco and jazz through post punk and hyperpop. Loreta 54 pairs Flor de Caña four year rum with miso, banana and cacao. A full zero proof list and a natural wine selection run alongside, and DJs play from eight on Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
Panorama Sky Bar sits forty floors above Warsaw inside the Warsaw Presidential Hotel on Aleje Jerozolimskie, across from the central railway station. The room is built around the view, with the skyline running out to the horizon and the mood shifting from golden hour calm to a busier evening. The bar describes its signature cocktails as crafted with precision, creativity and top shelf spirits, and the kitchen runs until one in the morning. Weekend opening from early afternoon makes it usable for a long lunch as well as a late drink. Tables are booked in advance, and the room is set up equally for celebrations, business meetings and quieter evenings.
