    Unique experience. Great view and fun holiday atmosphere. We went to the 'Snow Much Fun' event and it was a great place to get a drink and the kids had hot cocoa and s'mores. Loved the fire pits all around.

    Isabelle and TJ were amazing when it came to service. The food and cocktails were also tasty and came out in a reasonable amount of time. The only thing I rated less than amazing was the ambiance because the live music that is there is really boring. The acoustic music doesn’t really match the fun and joyful decor of the outside and the attitudes of the works. The music was honestly kind of sad and would be much better if replaced with either a more upbeat playlist or a band.

    Overall it was lovely and the ambiance was great. Our server was fantastic. I wish we could’ve specified to get an area with a firepit or a heater but we had neither. Also the snow machine closest to us did not work for the second hour of snow🫤. But overall it was of great value.

    This is our second time and we thoroughly enjoy it. We brought our kids this year and though I know it is designed more for an adult night out, it would be great if they had more children’s/ teenage drink options. We ordered the charcuterie board as well as the smores board and our kids enjoyed both, however I do feel like the boards are a bit lacking in portion size for the price.

    The Edge Rooftop Bar was amazing and gave me the sensations I was looking for! The Ambience was social but sensual at the same time. I was on a date with my husband celebrating our 19th wedding anniversary and we enjoyed ourselves immensely! Our server Larae (sp?) was superb and so friendly and gave us great suggestions when we asked. Her smile lit up our table and our area. Thank you!

    Food: The food was good, just small plates, but it was pretty tasty. If you’re looking for a full meal, I would not choose this place. Service: The service was absolutely terrible. The hostess was very nice but my particular server didn’t know the answer to a single one of the questions that I asked. Pretty much just shrugged and said I don’t know or I’m not sure without any reassurance of trying to find an answer. Ambiance: The place is very pretty, and has a really pretty view. Parking: Parking prices at the hotel where the bar is are quite steep. $16 for the first hour and $10 for every hour after that if I remember correctly. But you are in downtown so I guess most parking is going to be expensive.

    Thursday night live guitarist singer. The mixed drinks don’t taste great, $16 for a small margarita. The place it’s ok, nothing special just like any other rooftop, expensive drinks, small bites with a view of Austin’s downtown buildings.

    Edge Rooftop BarResponded on August 27, 2023

    Thank you for visiting us and for taking the time to leave a thoughtful review Khloe. We do find that a lot of our guests choose us over other rooftops for features like our live music, our frequent drink specials and our capitol view (we are the only rooftop bar in the city with it!). I hope that you will join us again, maybe for happy hour for discounted cocktails or on Sundays for half priced wine! - Andy Lewis, Edge AGM
