I feel like New Orleans was a little late to the game with these types of places, but now we have a decent array (typically at hotels like this one). And like most of the other rooftop bars at hotels, you don't have to be a hotel guest to take advantage! This past Saturday evening was surprisingly quiet up there, possibly due to White Linen happening on the other side of the CBD. I wasn't complaining, believe me! It was perfect out there for me and just when I thought things couldn't possibly get better, I saw the cocktail menu. Frosé, baby! Passionfruit frosé, yes please. Also, prices are not as high as you'd expect. My guy got a $3 Modelo. Frosé was $8. Pretty views of the surrounding buildings, fairy lights against the dark summer sky and a slight breeze... living my best life with a glass of frozé in mah hand. Thanks, Catahoula!

We got there just before 12pm, it opens at 11am and only waited about 15 minutes before spots opened up. It seems a lot of people come right at 11am. So by 12pm many people were grabbing their checks and heading out. The bar is really nice and even if you can't sit on the carousel, the bar area is nice too! The bartenders are super nice and friendly. Great customer service and everyone we sat next to was friendly and welcoming. The drinks aren't the best per say but you go for the atmosphere.

Wasn't too memorable, but something told me to stop by this afternoon! Definitely a much calmer and welcoming energy 2nd time around. It's been a pleasure seeing spots (especially Black-Owned) around the Baton Rouge area. I think they really have something special here. Yes, the drinks and the food are great. But there's something about this spot that is unexplainable: the vibrancy of the environment, maybe it's the small groups that will gather and chill on the couch, or have a drink at the bar, or go hangout in the rooftop patio. I don't know what it is, but I will not hesitate to come back sooner than later.

Crowded and happening even on Wednesday night, this is a place to see and be seen, have a drink, listen to music, and take in the night. It definitely takes a while to get your drink because of the crowd, but worth it to spend some time at this space.

While the views are amazing, I do not recommend this place. There is absolutely no kind of vibe on…read morethe rooftop. No music, no food service, or anything that shows that tried to create a nice vibe. It's literally just some chairs on the rooftop. The bar has a bartender, not mixologist, who makes drinks that I can make better at home. The little drinks are served un-garnished in tiny plastic cups and cost $15+. Not to mention they will take whatever tip amount they like out if you forget to close your tab. So my basic plastic cup of lemon, sugar, and a splash of vodka (I can't even call it a lemon drop) was $20. I wish I had taken a photo of how tiny the cups are.

Really disappointing experience…read more Vue honestly felt pretty bare bones to me. Yes, I learned some things about the culture and people of New Orleans and I got a few good pictures but I wouldn't recommend this at all. I was hoping to get a picture with my sister as indicated on the website but I didn't see anyone offer that or see it as an option once we made it there. I thought the mini story in the elevator was fun, short of course but they need to restructure this place I honestly was unimpressed. The website suggest it takes an hour and a half to experience the whole place, we walked the whole place, took pictures, watched 2 videos in well under an hour and a half. The employees were very nice and helpful; maybe I expected to much of Vue but I say temper your expectations.

We also found this to be walking distance from our tourist area hotel, but others may not. I do believe it is close to public transportation. It's easy to let yourself into the hotel, find the elevator and make your way to the correct floor, some roof top bars do make this more challenging than it should be. I do appreciate that this has a Rosie the Riveter theme and found that to be quite unique. I didn't have much interest in the World War II museum next door, but I assume many people go there and then come here for food/drinks after. We sat at the bar, but did be sure to make our way outside to check out the views. It was a beautiful sunny day and I do wish I would have made the effort to get a table outside. The menu contained a lot of tasty sounding New Orlean's type cuisine, but we didn't sample any. Definitely worth a stop off if you are in the area, or just like me and trying to find a semi close rooftop bar.

Whoa, it's one of those places that's deceiving in appearance! Looks small on the outside but plenty of room on the inside! Matter of fact, there was a small event happening when we got there (but nothing big enough to shut it down to the public.) Ordered a hurricane to enjoy as I listen to the live music for entertainment. It was pretty mellow, so it was a good change from the loud (and some dissonant) sounds we just experienced walking through Bourbon. So it was a good place to end our Bourbon Street pub/bar crawl before going back to the hotel for some much needed rest... ... (but the truth is we had a couple more nightcaps at a couple more places before we actually went back. Tee-hee!!!) Hey, it's NOLA. It's Bourbon Street! It's allowed! But yeah, good first run here.
