Rooftop @ Revere

A Sky-High Date Night at Rooftop@Revere My partner, The Queen, and I decided to try Rooftop@Revere for a spontaneous date night, and it was an excellent choice. Located atop the Revere Hotel in the heart of Boston, the journey to the rooftop feels like a mini-adventure. You enter through the sleek hotel lobby, find the dedicated elevators (look for the "RR" button!), and ascend to the city's skyline. We didn't have a reservation on a Thursday night, but the friendly host was accommodating and seated us promptly. We were immediately struck by the vibrant atmosphere and the breathtaking, panoramic view of the Boston skyline. The entire space is open-air, perfectly designed with string lights, lush plants, and a mix of seating—from intimate tables to luxurious cabanas lining one side. A live DJ was spinning a great mix of current R&B and hip-hop, which created a fantastic, upbeat vibe without being overwhelming. It was the perfect soundtrack for a cool evening breeze and a night out. Service was efficient and attentive from the start. Our waiter came by quickly to take our drink orders, and we were soon enjoying our cocktails while taking in the stunning surroundings. While the food took a bit longer to arrive (just over 30 minutes), it was well worth the wait. The dishes were served hot, delicious, and very tasty. Overall, our experience was fantastic. The combination of great service, delicious food, an incredible view, and an electric atmosphere made for a truly memorable date night. We'll definitely be back, perhaps next time we'll book one of those cabanas! Highlights: · Breathtaking views of the Boston skyline · Vibrant, trendy atmosphere with a great live DJ · Tasty food and well-made drinks · Friendly and efficient service · Beautiful, Instagram-worthy design with cabanas and lights

The view is pretty and drinks are okay, but a little of the pricer end for the quality. The service was pretty slow, and Im thinking theyre understaffed. The rooftop wasn't that busy, and we were sitting in one of the communal areas (not on the bar top) and it was hard to get service there. If you go, just know you may have to flag people down to get service. He was very nice, but again- I think understaffed since they able to circulate around the space well.

I was at a private function and everything was perfect. Everyone who was taking care of us were great. The food was fantastic and the views to die for. Only wish it wasn't a rainy day so we could enjoy outside.

I stopped by for lunch. It was very quiet. The servers were great. Ambiance great. Food was spectacular. I had the shrimp lettuce wraps and it was delightful. The people at the next table had lobster rolls and fish tacos and they looked amazing as well. Very pleased with the experience.

Excellent host and service! This was a super easy and convenient place to visit and had solid food choices. Drinks were great, the menu could be bigger and the food has more room to “impress” but it’s definitely a good choice for some bites and drinks on a rooftop with a beautiful view.

Beautiful view, greatly decorated, but just everyone needs a lesson in hospitality. We came here for a private ticket event, but were surprised we also needed reservations to have a table. Most of the service staff was dismissive of our problems and could not care less. Definitely won’t be coming back. ps if you’re having a watch party for a show that requires audio and video, have proper audio and video.

Took 40 minutes to get some cocktails. The server had no idea about the menu, food was bad. They advertized 4 of july fireworks and you couldnt see anything. Also overprice crappy drinks we couldnt even finish them

We attended for a ticketed watch event. You’d assume that included the opportunity to see and hear the event they were marketed. When we expressed that we couldn’t, they were hostile. That’s the last time I ever step foot in that place

Drink was good, we expected the lavender to be bath-bomb-y as it often is but they did a good job. This place is very expensive and was absolutely empty when we got there at about 9:30 on a warm Friday night. View was good, only south is really visible, there aren't many green spaces or much else. It's basically just an upscale patio that's a maze to get to when winding around the hotel. We waited by a host table for 5 minutes before realizing no one was coming out so we seated ourselves and ordered drinks. Bar tender apparently "lost our receipt" after 15 minutes so we had to sign again, but he assured us we wouldn't be charged a second time.

Drinks are ok. Four stars for the vibes up there. The service is great and the views are beautiful. It's always a chill time. There's music to

Sean and Mere (Mary) are great bartenders! I am shocked at the low review score because I've been here twice this week and everything has been great. The views and vibe are amazing as well as the service. If you like rooftop bars, I highly recommend Rooftop at Revere.

Wiew is veri amezing custumer service is okey nice clean place afther 5 pm over 21 if some one waana visit here with famlly kids go before 4:30

The vibes at Rooftop at Revere are amazing! It's completely outdoors, plenty of tables and a bar area. The day my boyfriend and I went, it was a bit gloomy, but we still had great views of the city. We ordered two lobster rolls and the tuna tartare. The food was delicious! It's slightly overpriced, but since it's in a hotel + has good views, I expected the price to be a bit above average. It was a bit understaffed but the servers worked so hard and really hustled haha. I recommend rooftop revere and will be back! Overall rating: 8/10

I went here for cocktails last week and the it is a beautiful rooftop experience with a stunning view. We made a reservation the day before and when we got there, there were still many empty tables for a Saturday night with good weather. I loved their exclusive Barbie menu (we went on premier weekend) and ordered our pink drinks off of that. There was a live DJ playing good music but wait staff was a bit absent/aloof.

If you want to blow a ton of money on this place, go ahead. You'll have to wait 30 minutes in line before you get a drink, only 1/8 of our drinks were good. It does have a nice view, but unless you're celebrating a big occasion, it's not worth it. A vodka cran is difficult to mess up, but somehow, they messed up two. Don't waste your time here.

The worst bar ever. Service is nonexistent, you must catch servers as they past by and hope you get a drink. The host has no control and can't even get the staff response to issues. STAY AWAY!!!!

Come here for the views, period. Drinks were awful and just tasted off. Food menu is limited. I recommend reserving a table online a few days ahead of time, because if not, you will stand in line for at least 30 minutes to order a drink at the bar. Service was just ok, not super friendly, but she did check on us quite a few times. The views are great, and there's nice spots to take pictures. Music is pretty on point!!! Dancehall/hip hop vibe, depends what night you come I guess. Also, sucks that they close at 11 on weekends. UGH it's too bad though.... finally one of very few rooftop bars in Boston, but it costs $300 to sit on some couches? Get it together. I may give it another shot sometime, or try Lookout.

I stopped by here for drinks with a group of friends. The view was beautiful and the drinks were good. The only reason for the 3 is the quality of the food. We ordered chips and guac and flat bread. It wasn't horrible but it just tasted like food you can get at the groceries. The $$ is not worth.

Lovely restaurant, perfectly located in upscale hotel near theater district. Discount parking on weekends a super bargain. The food is exceptional. I had perfectly prepared Miso Salmon, friend had the cod and loved it, and my son had a delicious burger. Doug, our waiter was attentive and helpful. My new GO TO theater district restaurant.

This was a fun trip out even in covid quarantine. The tables were more than 6 feet apart and it was not that cold yet even at night. The drink options were maaaany, very much limited food menu. We had the churros, chips and guacamole, charcuterie & cheese, and hummus. The cheese was very good, two types of cheese one sharper and one only slightly sharp and decently nutty. The drinks were all very good! The sangria was nice, tasted a bit strong but still very good. The secret garden was delicious, very citrusy and yummy. My friends got the sparrow and it was quite strong in tequila flavor, but they still seemed to like it. I wish there was a few more food options and a little more variety in the cheese, only 2 types for 18$? I would maybe come back here if it was warm out and summer.

So, first - this does NOT look like the pictures. The pictures on here and on the website make it look much newer and sleeker. Second - I waited several minutes for a host to greet me, and then I finally popped outside and asked someone if there was a host. Food-wise, I was frustrated that the menu on their website is out-of-date. I scanned the QR code on the table and got a completely new menu. The phone number on the website is out of service, too. So they need some updating. But - the food we got was delicious. I went with the short rib flatbread and my husband got the burger (with a fried egg and bacon). I got the white sangria, which was super tasty. The music is loud, but that's the vibe. I felt I wasn't young or hip enough to be there, but then I realized there was an interesting mix of people of all ages. Our server was super friendly and helpful, although service was quite slow (which was fine - we didn't have anywhere to go). The bathrooms are currently closed, so you need to wander through the hotel down to the floor below, but I'm sure that's a Covid issue. Overall, it was a nice experience, just not exactly what I expected.

This review lacks two stars for two reasons. 1) I made a reservation for a table only to arrive to every single table being already taken because they allowed too many people in (what good is a reservation if you can't actually reserve anything). 2) we ordered a pitcher of aperol spritz only to find out after that they had run out of Prosecco and replaced it with club soda-yuck. I'll give it a generous 3 stars however for its incredible ambiance and views of the city, perhaps I caught this place on an off night- but idk

Literally the only good thing about this rooftop is the view....And that's only partially true. We had a reservation for 8PM. No signs in the lobby that only two people were allowed at a time on each elevator so there was a line to go up once we all figured it out. The upstairs area had a hostess stand with a hostess running around outside and a line quickly forming. The hostess finally started to move the line along and took a couple in front of us who did not have a reservation while we had one all along. We were finally seated and our table was above...The parking garage! This rooftop isn't that high up by any means, it's smack in the middle of the floors of the hotel. Our "view" was the bar, the garage, the emergency exit, and maybe a snippet of the Boston skyline. Since you have to order food to get alcohol we decided to go with the cheese board. Four slices of cheese, two crackers, one piece of bread, and a ton of salami. A ripoff for over $20. The drinks were good (we each had the bourbon cocktail) but at $17 each it was a bit small and served in a plastic cup. I get the use of plastic especially during COVID but $17 for a tiny drink? Music was in and out. The crowd moved on quickly. This is more the place to go for a quick cocktail and a photo of the sky.

Ok Drinks, Kind Of High Priced, Good Views From The Edge. So this bar/lounge area is located on the rooftop of the Revere Hotel in Boston. It is a great location and has some good views of the city from up there. The drinks were pretty high priced and the sangria was ok, but has a frat party feel to the tiny ice filled plastic cup... Ice and wine do not mix in my world... They have a somewhat limited bar with only Angry Orchard Rose cider, and the Rose is the worst product from Angry Orchard... Service wasn't bad. They never came to see if we wanted more drinks, maybe you are supposed to go to the bar each time? The word may never know... It's a cool area otherwise for a meeting or small get together. I really want to 3.5 star it, but cannot rough up to 4.

If I could give this place -5 stars I would. I made a reservation 2 weeks in advance for my birthday, and CONFIRMED the day before my reservation at 7pm on 8/15/22. When my party arrived at the Rooftop at Revere, it said that it was CLOSED for a private event. I asked to speak to someone about the situation because I was really confused. When I spoke to one of the managers they said that they were closed for a private event that "just popped up out of no where". (There we're a lot of people checking into the hotel for that company, so I truly find that hard to believe!) And they said to speak with the restaurant manager in Rebels Guild, and they said that they started calling everyone at 6:30pm that day to let them know that they were closed. They offered us balcony seating, to make up for the experience. We agreed to that, and got the set ups and water. Then we were left alone for over 20 min, no server in sight. After 25 min we decided to leave. We ran into the manager on the way out and let him know what happened. He just said "sorry." No customer service skills at all! We left and ended up going to Atwood Tavern in Cambridge and that was amazing! Never again will I make reservations or recommendations about either restaurant again!

Great views in the evening with some good cocktail options! Service could've been a little better.

I would not recommend this place, but it did give us a good laugh and a good view. The drinks are very mediocre and a little overpriced, but this is what you'd expect at this type of place honestly. I did expect cuter decor than what they had, and my chair was broken. Because of covid, you must order something to eat along with your beverages. We choose the snack mix, which was the least pricey item. It was 7 dollars (even though the menu said 6!) for a small dish of burn popcorn with some nuts and m&ms. Some people would have been very upset with this, but we just thought it was funny! I will say that the tables are spaced far apart and it felt very safe. Our poor waiter seemed tired, and the service was pretty slow. I cannot speak on the hot food served here, but overall I would not return. However I was happy to be able to go out safely after spending so much time indoors the past year.

DISAPPOINTING AND DIRTY. Rap music blaring, with slow service and overpriced drinks that are terrible. No wonder the place was empty. The view is parking garages. The private cabanas are available at extra cost and they are DISGUSTING. THE CUSHIONS ARE STAINED AND TRASH FROM PRIOR GUESTS REMAINS ON THE FLOORS. The entire place needs a refresh and to be overhauled by management. A total zero. Do not waste your money here.

I spent last weekend in Boston, and the weather was perfect for rooftop bars and dining. It was perfect enough that we looked for rooftop meals/bars almost every night. I gave the Rooftop at Revere 2 stars because one of two drinks was good, and the view is wonderful. My partner wanted a glass of wine, but all they sold was half bottles - this isn't terrible, but by buying a half bottle, she was locked into her choice for at least to drinks. The food was terrible. We ordered two flatbreads that sounded good. One was a basic mozarrela/tomato/basil and the other was a chicken tikka masala. The basic one had a balsamic drizzle that had potential, but the lack of flavor in the bread, cheese, and basil meant that it was the only flavor, and the flatbread as a whole was quite underwhelming. The chicken tikka masala was dry and flavorless. Even worse for both, is that when they were delivered, they were barely warm, if not air temperature. I realized that was the case because the kitchen is not with rooftop bar - I saw cooks bringing them off the elevator in room service containers and taking them to the rooftop. Our waitress was inattentive. We weren't given water or silverware, and when we asked for napkins, we were given paper drink napkins. We saw other patrons with cloth napkins, which would have been preferable, because the balsamic drizzle was so incredibly sticky that it took two small paper napkins to get it off my fingers. If I'm in Boston again, which I plan to be, the Revere will be on my list of places to avoid. It could be amazing, but it was a huge disappointment, and not worth the $80 bill at the end of the night.

Visited the rooftop bar at revere and was disappointed. View was so-so and most importantly the bar tender was very unfriendly. The bar was not well stocked and just didn't provide for a great vibe. I planned to hang there for a bit but left after my first drink since it was lame.

I am not that type to leave bad or good reviews, but this time I will coz I don't like people that come here to say bad things, DONT LISTEN TO WHAT ORHERs SAY! Great Place , good food good drinks , we ordered lobster salad and it was GREAT!! Stay safe!!

It was hard to get reservations but when we got there they didn't even ask for our name the place was empty. The service was super slow we had to ask about our food 4 times. When it finally came (over and hour and a half later) it was tasteless and warm at best definitely not hot. We were never asked how the food was. We were given plastic forks and little square bar napkins. Due to the insane wait for the gross food it was comped so they did make that part right. The drinks were good but on the higher price end. If you do go just order from the bar and have a drink to enjoy the vibe and then go someplace w better food and drinks. Most of the photos on Google and there website are from the private space not where you actually end up.

Overall: A must-go place during the summer! I arrived around 4 p.m. and there was no line. The rooftop is very spacious, modern looking, with lounge sitting and high-top tables with nice views. Super casual vibe during the day but as the sun sets, expect people to be more dressed-up (not everyone). There's a DJ playing songs and they do take requests. It is 21+ unless you're a guest of the hotel. Drinks: My friends and I sat at one of the lounges and we had an amazing time. The drinks are highly-priced and served on plastic cups, which is a downside. The server was very attentive, but drinks can take a while to arrive during peak hours. Definitely order one of the watermelons!

I stayed at the hotel and went upstairs only to be severely disappointed. For one, the hours of service do NOT reflect the actual hours of service. If you say you serve food till 11, I don't want to hear that the kitchen is closed at 10pm. Also, super inconsistent. I got a cocktail with no ice in a plastic cup, and then saw another customer get a drink in "glass" a few minutes later. We only had cocktails, because "kitchen was closed", so drinks were great, even though served in plastic cups, on a rooftop bar that claims some sort of "high end experience". Hell, I have had a better experience at a lobby bar in Manhattan at a Hilton. Lots to work on Shane. Manager needs to step up his game, or get out. Staff was strong and really pleasant.

How can you just say no to this place? My husband and I came with 2 other couples on a Saturday night. The service was very slow, had to wait for over 20 minutes for our water and another 25 minutes for drinks after that. We ordered a cheese board and French fries for the table - both disgusting. Cheese board had a trail mix in there with animal crackers, honey had something swimming in it. We decided not to order a meal there and wanted to split the check 3 ways. Our server said the only way they can split is 2 ways. When our friends wanted to give cash and let us pay the rest of the bill with 2 cards, that wasn't allowed neither.

So I took my girlfriend out for the first time there and the service was horrible took almost 2hrs for our food and every time we asked "oh it's coming" then a manager came up and read our orders to us and we says yes it's ours he then says okay I'll go get it 45 mine later still nothing then when the food came it was the worst food ever even though they didn't charge us for the food I still would never eat there. The server didn't really know what she was doing because when ever we asked about the food it's like she didn't know then proceed to tell us almost an hour later oh the ticket was never printed over all I give this place a -1

Great Rooftop bar with fantastic views, plenty of seating, friendly staff and knowledgeable bartenders that can make a very nice cocktail!

Pre covid19 review: There is a fee for getting food brought up. Also a minimum spend for the cabanas, even on weeknights. We sat in the sun and had a good time anyway, on the bosses dime. There are a lot of fruity options for cocktails, and all different sizes for your group (1-10?). They don't have large plates, but you can get chips and dips, flat breads, chicken, etc. Service was slow, even though there was a bar outside and not many people there. Drinks are overpriced. Pool was closed when we went, with no warning posted on our way in. I joked about going swimming, but didn't have anything to do it with. I would have been heartbroken had I brought stuff, and wonder what families staying there do when it is closed.

Not great. Has potential but at least the evening I went they were understaffed. I was given a table that overlooks a parking garage. No one came to take our order after 20 minutes and eventually I tried to order at the bar. Waited 10 minutes there and eventually gave up. I give people lots of slack these days cuz I know everyone is short staffed, but this was ridiculous. Will not return.

Horrible service. waited at least an hour for water and straws, got our food before drinks. we had to ask another server for our checks

Horrible place, very bad service and food is terrible.

I found out about this place after doing a tabata class with Athleta and Republic Fitness on the revere rooftop. They have these classes on Tuesdays throughout the summer. The rooftop bar opens at 12pm and cover is $20 before 5pm. But after 5pm there is no cover! It is a great place to get your tan on and hang out with your friends. The rooftop deck is on the 7th floor, so it isn't super high up. But it is high enough to get a decent view of Boston. There is a full bar by the entrance and there are servers walking around taking drink and food orders. However, it is difficult to get their attention unless you look like a high roller who rolled up in a Lamborghini. One thing that I don't like about this place is that there are always private events here and somehow most of their cabanas and tables are always reserved. But I was also lucky to find a table. The drinks are a little pricey. The beer prices are reasonable but there aren't many to choose from. But this is my new spot to go for the summer!

Want to just relax and have a drink with a beautiful view.. The revere hotel has this real nice roof top with plenty of chairs,tables, cabanas, and a bar how can you say no to that!! Located in the theatre district not to far from all the night clubs and restaurants!!! Non hotel quests get a wristband no cover fee At night it wasn't too busy Cocktails are $12 to $14. The views are beautiful but I wish it was on the top floor as this was half way so you are limited to seeing all of Boston... Overall very chill, not to bright and service was good.. Music was just the right volume...

This rooftop bar does not have anything in common with the bare shown on the pictures...!!! We know that things are different during a world wide pandemic, but this rooftop bar has NO charm at all! Beside the lack of charm, the food and drinks where miserable and the service was more than poor. Save yourself time and money and go to a nicer place

TIP: Ladies, if you find the Sunday events on Eventbrite, you can avoid paying the $30 fee. My girlfriend and I got in for free. This rooftop is a nice place to spend your Sunday afternoon if you just want to catch some rays and chill and drink with friends. I was somewhat expecting it to be a live day party, but when I arrived it was a very chill environment. Parking took me a while to find, but we were finally able to find street parking not too far from the hotel. Parking on a Sunday was also a plus. There is an indoor pool right next to the rooftop, which is open to you and the hotel's guests as well. There was no DJ, just soft music playing in the background and groups of friends gathered around the tables and cabanas, hanging out. The drinks and waitstaff were really good, and the waitresses were very attentive and accommodating of our needs. They have a handful of appetizers to order from and take debit/credit/cash. The only major downside is that they need more umbrellas for the really sunny days. At one point a waitress asked if we needed our umbrella (it was about 85 degrees and extremely sunny) so that would be a plus. Other than that, I would definitely go back at some point. It was an overall cool vibe and experience.

Really cool space with some great views of Boston. Drinks were priced rather steeply, especially considering you are served in plastic cups that is first topped off with ice. Once you do get the bartenders attention (which can take a while) they are very friendly.

This place is all about the view. Drinks are reasonably priced if a little on the expense side. Very cool place to bring someone visiting Boston.

Cabana reservation expressly promoted $10 parking. However, they do not validate and don't even own the parking garage, so have no say on what parking price will be!

You pay for the view...this place has the absolute worst service I've ever experienced. Paul Revere would be disappointed. The British came faster across the Atlantic than the servers came to bring our drinks. Save your time and money and go to another rooftop, this place isn't even on the roof lol. My bathroom Dixie cup is bigger than the drink servings. Our poor waitress was new and another bitchy waitress stepped in and took the table from her, this place had no organization. Don't waste your time, there's lots of other better places to go to in this city.

S: place sucks A: worst service I've had in 3 years N: god damnit they ran out if bleu cheese Z: no comment A: I don't have anything to add but it's true

Good location. Can be a bit windy and chilly. Interesting views. What drags the place down is service. 10 or more minutes to get a drink. Servers appear indifferent. Had to flag somebody down both times I visited when staying at the hotel. You think a bar would want to sling drinks!

It's a cute place before the sun sets. The drinks aren't too shabby but I'm not too much of a fan. There isn't much of a view because of all the buildings surrounding it so you're basically looking at buildings if you're trying to look out in the distance. But like, not the cute view of buildings. The sun sets and you're really just stuck in the dark. The decor itself is nice but I'm sure there are nicer rooftop bars.

This is without a doubt the worst experience I have ever had at a bar or restaurant. I'm service industry and normally have a super high tolerance for these kinds of things but everything that happened tonight was inexcusable. My party had a reservation at 9 and when we arrived there was a small line with about 4 groups in front of us. No big. So we wait and wait and wait with no sign of a host or anything. Eventually 2 groups were sat but still no discernible host or anyone came to talk to us. An older couple comes and stands behind us for a second and then immediately go outside and just sit at a random table. We found someone that worked there and told them that not only had we not been greeted or talked to, but that they had sat someone that had jumped the line ahead of other groups. Their response was that they had a reservation, but so did we and the other people in line. We ended up getting sat at almost 9:40(again, reservation was at 9) and after waiting for someone to come get our drink order (another 15 minute wait) they told us they were out of everything from the cocktail list. We ended up leaving and wish that they would have mentioned that while we were waiting in line. The server had mentioned that they were short staffed that evening and that's fine. Shit happens. But if there had been even the slightest bit of communication that that was the case or that they were out of their cocktails it would have made the experience a lot better. To add insult to injury it was my friends birthday and we were trying to take her out for a little surprise cocktail but ended up wasting an hour instead.

Rooftop is correct, but generous. It's outdoor on a roof, but there isn't much of a view. Food menu is minimal. Only saving grace was the service from the bartenders at the bar. Not sure if there was a server or not. Waited about 15 minutes and just went to the bar for a drink. Great for later evening drinks outside, but not for views.

Place has a decent view but the quality of food is very low. The menu is very minimal, and not as explained. I ordered the Memphis chicken and it was spiced so heavily I could not taste my meal. Not very accommodating.

I went to a work event here recently and I was very impressed. The staff was attentive, friendly and helpful and the food was amazing!

Got a Sam Adams beer here the tables were really spaced out which is good. It was freezing and they do not have any heaters here. It was average mostly. View is pretty good!!
