Great vibes here! I hadn't visited since they first opened until a couple of weeks ago, and I had a fantastic time. They have a DJ on the weekends, which definitely amps up the energy. The rooftop is first come first served, which seems to work well for their team. They offer shareable plates and super tasty cocktails! What we tried: +chicken sliders; 8/10 +steak crostini; 9/10 +parm fries 7/10 +caesar salad; 8/10 +paloma cocktail; 8/10 read more

Super upbeat, trendy rooftop for drinks. I'm usually here on the weekend so it might be a little bit too crowded for me to enjoy the atmosphere. If I'm in a 6+ group, I will not be able to hear everyone. Some of the drinks are made a little bit inconsistently. I do enjoy the livelier setting so I would stop by here if I'm in Carmel for a night out. Drinks: Not my fave espresso martini 6/10 Watery cranberry vodka 4/10 Lychee summer cocktail 8/10 - fruity, my friend's was tart and mine was sweet Banana rum and winter cocktail 5/10 meh, not sweet enough for me, banana is pretty artificial read more

3UP Rooftop Lounge - Winter specialty cocktail: contains banana and rum - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Carmel, Indiana

I've been to 3UP Bar many times and always love it. it's consistently a fun experience. The drinks are always great, and the vibe never disappoints. It's especially cute in the winter when they decorate everything extra cozy and festive. It seriously transforms the space and makes it such a fun place to hang during colder months. I'd highly recommend it for a cute girls' night or a cozy date night. It's also a perfect spot to grab drinks before or after dinner. One of my favorite go-to bars in the city! read more

3UP in Carmel feels like a legitimately worthy VIP experience for the area. It has a premium feel from the moment you arrive, and the whole place leans into that in a way that works. The doorman is a trip and honestly a great part of the experience, adding personality right up front. It is the kind of spot that feels especially right when you want to dress up a bit, be out for something that feels elevated, and be around other people who are clearly bringing that same energy. read more

First time going to 3up rooftop and I was pleasantly surprised by how nice it was, the views and friendly waitstaff. I arrived at 7pm on a Friday and had no trouble immediately finding a spot outside. We were given a menu and regularly checked on throughout the night. Unfortunately I didn't have the biggest appetite so I only ordered apps but my friend had the steak tacos and said they were delicious. The salad and Brussel sprouts were very standard but I'd say this is a great sports for a girls night like we had, date night or pre game/ birthday! read more

Great fun on the rooftop. Nice fireplaces, great atmosphere. Excellent seating. It does get busy and it does get very loud. If you can snag a seat in one of the coves, grab it. It helps a lot with the noise. The food I had was flatbread and fries. They were good. My wife had a veggie board, but it was gone when I got there. She said it was good. read more

3UP is conveniently located on main street in Carmel. It's a rooftop lounge that serves a ton of specialty cocktails and food. I came with a group of women. Service left so much to be desired especially for the price. You're paying nearly 20 dollars for a cocktail and the food is on the high side. I ordered the fried chicken wrap. It was pretty good. They came with fries that were overly seasoned. Our server never refilled our water. For the amount of people there they absolutely need to hire more staff. There's only three stalls in the building and when the restaurant is packed there's a long line. I think it's okay to visit when they aren't extremely busy but service left a lot to be desired. read more

I've been here a few times and it's always a good experience. This time was particularly great bc we had such a wonderful and attentive bartender, who was friendly without being overbearing. Our rosé and espresso martinis were both good. The ambiance was nice, with it feeling lively, but not too loud where we couldn't have a conversation. read more

The atmosphere is great! When I last went they still had the inside decorated with winter garland and other decorations. Super cute! It's not the biggest space. Then outdoor area is great! But the heaters are mainly under the patio. And the fireplaces are quickly taken. I do with they have a few standing tables and more portable heaters. We got a table inside though! Our server was amazing! I don't remember her name, but she was fantastic! I split a flatbread with a friend and it was super good! The fries are so so. They're a lot like the ones at Steak 'n Shake. I love those! Just not for the price here. Apparently they're known for their espresso martini. I tried it. Not the best I've had. But not the worst. Other drinks are better. Not my favorite place to go to, but we had great service, and the aesthetic is great! read more

The 3UP Rooftop Lounge is a very cool place for drinks, food, conversation, and music. Service was a "little" on the slow side, but I think that's because this is one of those places that requires one server to cover about 100 tables. That's a slight exaggeration, but you get the idea. I guess that's the world we live in now, in the post-Covid reality. The food was surprisingly good, and the drinks were also above-average. The two tips I can offer are as follows: a) After several drinks and a few appetizers, you may find yourself several hundred dollars lighter. It's a little pricey here. That's because of the premium that all Carmel Monon-area restaurants charge; you're paying handsomely for the privilege of occupying this ultra-premium space for an hour or two. So, be mentally prepared for $16-$20 cocktails, being that that is what they have here. b) After many, many, many failed attempts to find a table here during the past year, apparently the secret to not getting shut-out is to arrive between 5-6pm. If you show up at 9pm with an entourage, expecting to sit down at a table, that's probably not going to happen. This space is simply too popular and too small for that. read more

I love 3UP! It's a great place to hangout with friends. Very trendy on the inside and the rooftop is spacious with a perfect view of downtown Carmel. The service has always been great and they are very attentive. The drinks are always very good as well. I usually come during the more chilly months so I can enjoy the fireplace outside. Highly recommend! read more

The doorman had great vibes and really set the tone for a fun experience right away. We came on a very busy night, so it was a little tough finding a table, but once we got settled, a server quickly came over with menus. We ordered the Parmesan truffle fries, and they were amazing! We also had a couple of drinks and really enjoyed everything. Overall, a great place with a fun atmosphere. read more

My husband and I are always wishing we had more rooftop bars like Nashville -- so you can imagine our excitement when we found out we had one in Carmel! This made for a perfect spot for my Bachelorette Party to take a break and enjoy some beverages for the afternoon. It was great atmosphere and great service. And the Espresso Martini was the BEST I've ever had! read more

This place is amazing! I finally had a chance to go in Feb . It was packed and bustling , there was a live music too! All these bring excitement! There are plenty of outdoor seatings for the summer looking towards the carmel arts district which is beautiful. Since it was still winter, we stayed inside. I tried their 2 handcrafted cocktails but i forgot what they were called, seems like the menu might change frequently. read more

The place looks cool on the photos and it does IRL. Beautiful indoor and outdoor lounge areas, nice music. The not so good part: food is average and overpriced for what it is. Very basic and small portions. They also seem to be understaffed (one waiter for like 50 people). read more

We stopped in right at 5 on Friday night and found a quiet seat near the windows. 3UP is so beautifully decorated and felt perfectly festive. Plus my drink was spot on.

Finally got a chance to meet a friend here for drinks this weekend. It was a perfect night for it - warm but not hot, slight breeze. There were fire pits, but none of them were lit (might be saved for the cooler months?). They open at 5 and we met there at 6. There wasn't a line to get in, but we did have to stand around for a while before some comfy chairs opened up. We were able to get drinks at the bar and enjoy some very entertaining people watching in the meantime. There are a variety of good seating options--low, comfy chairs, bar tables, couches, etc. There are a couple of very easy-on-the-eyes servers/bartenders, and everyone was really nice and checked in with us just the right amount. As the night went on, it took a little longer to get drinks, but it wasn't outrageous. Loved the vibe here, from the crowd to the music. It reminded me of my favorite rooftop bar in Milwaukee ... so glad to have this option here in Indy! When we left around 9:30pm, there was a bouncer by the elevator and a long line in the hallway. Make sure to get there early if you don't want to wait! read more

One of the coolest bars in Indy!! The location couldn't be better - right above Anthonys Chophouse overlooking Carmels Main Street. Parking is made easy by finding a spot In the garage attached to the building. You can go directly from the garage into the 3UP building. Head up to floor three and the sophisticated dimly lit ambiance is felt immediately. It just makes you feel fancy! They've got a great selection of drinks, including tons of quality liquor and plenty of bottled beer/seltzers too. I've eaten from there menu here and the sliders were delicious. They've just redone the menu and it's so much bigger so I'm eager to give it a try again. The patio is a hit even in the winter, they have fires and heaters everywhere. The holiday decorations are so galore and so cozy. Customer service is always great. Prices are not that much more than standard bars around here. No other spot like this in Indy! read more

The ambiance is lovely. Had cocktails and enjoyed a relaxing evening. Located in Midtown Carmel. Very enjoyable.

Since moving to Carmel, we've been wanting to try this place. It did not disappoint. The atmosphere feels like you're downtown, not in Carmel. It's a great place to be on a nice summer day! They had live music which is also one of my favorite things in the world! The only thing that is frustrating is it is first come first serve seating. I hate being the kind of person who is staring someone down for a table because it can be crowded on a nice night, but after standing around for about 20 mins, we got a table. The drinks were great. I had the strawberry edged cocktail which was delicious. We also split the burrata which was the highlight of the evening. Highly suggest it! I can't wait to come back and stay longer. read more

I was disrespected due to my race, management did nothing about it. I recommend going anywhere else

3up is a great place to meet for drinks. The outdoor area is wonderful, and the indoor area feels outdoor thanks to the large open windows and doors. We were able to meet at 5:45 for a 6:45 dinner reservation at Monterey Cuisine across the street and all was perfect. We had time for one drink and oysters- staff advised almost all food comes out within 15 minutes which is astounding! This was our second time and I can't wait to return. My only critique is that though I understand its name is due to the location being 3 stories up...it does sound a bit close to "throw up" verbally. I think I'll refer to "that rooftop lounge in Carmel" from now on and see where that gets me! read more

Ambience is fantastic, cocktails are very good, the waitresses and service members are very polite

This place is really fun! The inside is super pretty, area is clean and nice. Drinks are super tasty, but very pricy. Food is good, but also pricy and limited options. Service was good and quick as well. They had live music and the singer was very good! Only downside was the wait to get in. I was with 5 friends and it took us some time to get through the door. Overall fun and a nicer option for going out with friends compared to places around. read more

On a Saturday evening, this rooftop restaurant & bar felt more like a nightclub. The decor is modern, people were mostly dressed up, there was a dj, and the music was very loud. I ordered a margarita and we shared the pizza special along with the brussel sprouts. I would eat those brussel sprouts every single day if I could. Holy cow, those were good!! The pizza was just okay. I expected better with the margarita, but it was just okay. I wouldn't avoid this place, but I'm definitely not recommending it or trying to hurry back there. Well, for anything other than brussel sprouts. Maybe takeout. read more

What a beautiful swanky spot in Carmel! We went to the 3UP Rooftop Lounge for a friends going away party. It was a great location. There is plenty of seats for sun or shade. The service was fantastic! The couch and chair set up was perfect for hanging out with friends. I got the Guava Lotta Spice- it was really good - great complexity and balance. Habanero Infused Tequila was perfection! The table also got some appetizers - the rosemary Parmesan fries and the creamy spinach dip. The fries were addicting! A great place for a cocktail! read more

Wagyu steak tacos were bland, service was atrocious and the bartenders are so slow and un observant it's laughable. The manager? Collin? Just disappeared when we asked to speak to someone & clearly has no control over the crowd in there. Only thing that was worth our time and the money spent was the musical act. They were too good for 3up. read more
