The Details

What the rooftop is like

Level 16, half open-air, half under a retractable roof — so the evening survives bad weather. The cocktail list runs from proper classics to a Tweed-botanicals section our bartenders built with the spa's herb garden.

Food is share plates from the Meridian kitchen till 11 pm — think kingfish crudo, lamb ribs and a cheese board that keeps winning arguments. After 8 pm it's 18+ only; earlier in the evening, families are welcome at the tables away from the bar.

Sunset sessionsGolden-hour tables bookable Thursday to Saturday.
Weather-proofRetractable roof and heaters — the terrace works year-round.
Non-drinker friendlyA zero-proof list that gets the same care as the cocktails.
