    View was great. Drinks were great. Was a nice place. Opened at 6 so we had to get drinks downstairs.

    I attended an event here this week and it was a fabulous venue. The views of the Atlanta skyline are beautiful! The outdoor balcony allows full views from the Mercedes Benz stadium to beyond the Westin Peachtree Plaza. The seating on the balcony is nice; there are 2 large decorative wicker rocking chairs. The food was good. We had samples of the pork fried rice, which was delicious, hummus on a cucumber, also good, and sushi. The service was great as the server was constantly bringing out dishes as soon as the serving platter was cleared, which was within seconds lol. This is a lovely venue for drinks, a meal, or special event. I can't wait to return!

    The views are worth the cover of $5! I loved the cocktail menu as I think they have classics for all pallets. Keeping it simple, but classy if you will. Didn't try any food. There was live music, and it's spacious enough that if your vibe is party, professional, or chill you can find that place!

    Yelp has done it again, selecting location with a wonderful ambiance. The service was stellar with tasty food and amazing cocktails.

    Love love love this rooftop right in the heart of downtown.. opens at 6PM.. we had to pay $5 cover charge since there was live music this Friday evening.. the views uptop are really nice and they have nice patio seating outdoors to enjoy the city views when the weather supports it.. they have cute indoor socially distant indoor setup.. and the bartenders are amazing.. they do have the best Manhattan in town (hands down).. i also asked them for a martini and it was good so was the baileys/kahlua cocktail and the old fashioned.. we did have multiple orders of the manhattan though.. Since we were there at 6PM it wasnt as crowded with folks socially distancing and all.. but the crowd picked up when we walked out around 10.. lovely rooftop to hangout with friends and enjoy the city view.. kind of expensive but at places like these u pay for the view more than the drink!! Highly recommend to folks in Atlanta!! Cheers

    R&B night is VERY nice. A great mingle situation for sure. Menu and drinks could use an upgrade, but overall nice atmosphere and terrific scenery of the city!

    Saturday, 11/06/2020 - Sky Lounge is beautiful! We had a great time. There's is a $5.00 fee for non hotel guests. The person singing had a beautiful voice. He's very good. There's a bar. There's 2 bathrooms for men or women, 1 stall in each. The set up is beautiful here. The view of Atlanta, GA is gorgeous from above. Pros: 1) beautiful set up 2) great musician. 3) very clean: tables, chairs, cups, bathrooms, etc. 4) nice bartenders 5) people stayed their 6ft apart and masks are worn. 6) there's food you can order. 7) the view to Atlanta is beautiful! Cons: 1) I have no cons. Conclusion: this place is very cute, very clean, people nice, service good, drinks good. Great place just to hang out, laugh and have a good time. I would go here again. Our experience was great!

    Came here after my MBA commencement. Nice rooftop bar. It was a little hard to find at first because you have to go around back of the hotel to get there. Security checked us in to go up the elevator before they closed. Thanks, dude! LOL We got up there and it was packed, but we still had no problem getting our drinks at the bar right away. The views were they best part of it to see Downtown Atlanta. You might have to just squeeze your way to the view you want to take a picture of or wait for patrons to move/leave. :P

    I love the view from rooftop bars. Discovered this one while wondering through Centennial Olympic Park and looking up at the surrounding buildings. Saw the lights and checked Yelp to see what it was- yep a rooftop bar located on top of The Glenn Hotel. So we walked over on a Friday night around 8:30pm. Through the front hotel doors turn right, then left pass the desk to the back. There's a space to check ID, and if you're not staying in the hotel, to pay a $5 charge to go up. Two cocktails ordered from the bar, $27 plus a tip. It's not a huge bar, but the view is pretty darn cool. You can walk around three sides to check out downtown Atlanta. There are only a few tables, no seats at the bar, and a couple of sectional couch seating areas. We stood at the rail in a couple of areas and took in the night lights while sipping our cocktails. Enjoyed some live music from a solo guitarist in the corner.

    The view from the balcony.

    Not the most lovely place. View was nice from balcony, but there is not places to sit and enjoy it. It is standing only. There were these patio type couches that were extremely low to the ground without cushions so people we standing on them. The overall feel was not great. The floor plan was not set up nicely and it was extremely dirty. It was gross. Cocktail was okay-standard. The bar area was dirty as well. We stayed only about 10 minutes. And there was a $5 cover charge. Not worth the cover even though it was only $5. Don't know if this is typical, but will not go back to find out.

    Refused cushions because Atlanta had a 10 percent chance of rain. So I was told sit on the metal.

Take the pool elevator to the 6th floor from the lobby and you're in the party. The setup was a mix of sofas, long high top tables and seats at the bar. There could be reserved seating but mostly looked like first come, first served. We eventually got seats from gentlemen who were willing to get up. But it's a dance party so you won't be seated long. The rooftop bar was extremely busy so we got drinks in the lobby. The service on the rooftop and lobby bar was over extended. They needed more staff to support the crowd. Eventually we ordered food as it seemed more staff came in to help. We shared chicken wings and the flat bread pizza. The wings were a good size and come with potatoes. More like breakfast potatoes, not fries. They were rather salty and not very good. The flat bread pizza was tasty. Their menu included other starters, sandwiches, salads and desserts. We had cocktails - old fashioned, vodka and cranberry, and a Moscow mule. Good size and tasty. Overall, the band - The DJ Wright Band and DJ Eclazz were why we came! Definitely check this spot out.

The spot is huge with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, so you aren't cramped while trying to catch a vibe. The 1000 Masks cocktail was smooth and balanced, avoiding the sugar-trap I expected from the blueberry syrup. We started with the Yuca Parmesan Truffle Fries--solid crunch and the truffle wasn't aggressive--and the Togarashi Tempura Veggies, which were light and crispy. I went with the 5Church Lamb Burger Sliders for the main; the gorgonzola fondue and red onion marmalade combo was a heavy hitter, though the lemon-dressed arugula kept it grounded. The food was a solid, reliable choice--nothing that'll change your life, but definitely tasty enough to keep you satisfied while the music does its thing. If you want a laid-back, intentional atmosphere without the extra noise, this is the move.

    Beautiful views, but the service and the food left much to be desired…read more I ordered chicken skewers, 2 mocktails, artichoke dip, and yucca fries. The chicken skewers took forever to come out. You only get two of them, and they are served over a bed of mixed greens. They lacked seasoning and flavor. The artichoke dip was extremely oily and had a very strange texture--it was thick and spreadable. The pita bread tasted old and stale. asked for a fork and the waitress forgot. When she brought my fries, she realized that she never brought the fork, and still didn't bring it. I ordered yucca fries, but she brought regular fries. The mocktails were served in these foggy old cups. Even the customer next to me commented on her own cup and said it looked like someone had drank from it. They add 20% gratuity to ALL bills--I was by myself and it was still added. 5 Church is pretty good, but this place was not at all. I paid 65 dollars for my meal, which was absolutely not worth it, given the quality and service of my experience. Looks good for IG but I won't be coming back to this rooftop.
