It was a quiet Saturday evening on the rooftop. Everyone visibly was there to relax. My drink was good and the view nice. My only critique is that the machine systems on the rooftop, maybe the ac or heating, was a little loud and constricts the mood. They cover it with a greenery surrounding to block it from view. The location is also a little further from uptown. Overall, still nice to check out.

Daniela made the whole experience even better than I expected. She’s super attentive, charismatic, and brings such great energy behind the bar. You can tell she genuinely enjoys what she does, and it shows in both her service and every drink she makes. I’d definitely come back and highly recommend her. Excellent service!

I went before 9pm and it was pretty empty and not much going on but the scenery and the environment was nice.

I took my girlfriend here for Valentine’s day and even though it was raining, it was beautiful. The cocktails were good and strong lol The food was delicious and we were greeted immediately. I can’t wait to experience this place again when we can seat on the outside and enjoy the view of uptown Charlotte

First and last time visiting this place Daniella was absolutely not warm nor welcoming. Service means everything to me. I believe in treating everyone with respect. She was very cold . Not to mention I said thank you upon receiving my drink barely a your welcome, and then when I ask for my receipt she put it in the counter instead of handing it to me. I choose to leave my money and tips I give people are too good for less than acceptable service. Do better. I’m a guest in this hotel!

4 star for the views. Nestled at the top of Le Meridian and Sheridan hotels, this is a scenic gem with a large space. I went during a week day, so I am unsure if there is music on the weekends. The food was ok. The menu is limited. Drinks are good. Service is ok. The atmosphere is relaxing. It is a great space to have light bites, drinks, and conversation.

The biggest issue is navigating the parking lot maze of the hotel (valet wasn’t available) to get to Le Meridien, take the elevator to the top floor, then additionally walk up more stairs to the roof top. The bathrooms are located one level below near the elevator.

I recently visited City Lights Rooftop, and honestly, it didn’t live up to the hype. If you’re looking for a laid-back, divey spot to grab a beer, it might check the box, but the experience left a lot to be desired.
First off, the atmosphere is definitely more dive bar than swanky rooftop lounge, which can be cool if you’re into that. But the music was a major turn-off. It was awful, honestly—like the DJ wasn’t even trying. I asked him to change it up, but nothing changed. The whole vibe just didn’t mesh well with the setting.
I stuck to beers, and they were fine—nothing special but decent enough for a casual night out. The service was pretty average, nothing to rave about. We didn’t get great attention, and the staff seemed a bit distracted.
To top it off, there was some seriously inappropriate behavior going on at the bar. I was shocked to see a couple openly engaging in sexual activity right in front of everyone. It was uncomfortable, and honestly, kind of disgusting. I can’t understand how that was allowed to happen in a public space, and it definitely ruined the experience for me.
Would I recommend it? Probably not. There are better spots in the city with a similar vibe and better overall experiences. City Lights Rooftop has potential, but until they address the music, the service, and the overall vibe, it’s hard to say it’s worth the visit.

Had a great time, amazing view of the skyline. Went on a thursday to watch the sunset, was not too busy. Drinks were pricey but expected.

The view was beautiful, but I did not enjoy my drink, I ordered a Mojito and the taste was not it. The sliders I ordered were good, I was not crazy about the calamari. The music was so chill. It was a relaxing experience for me.

Location is a little on the outskirts of uptown but worth the visit. 18th floor gives an excellent of the city. Small selection of custom cocktails but they are mixed with care! They have a bar bite menu if you needed a quick snack. Staff is friendly and their signature popsicle cocktail looked to be popular out there. Ambiance is relaxing with upbeat music pumping over the speakers. Great place to check out! You can easily kill some time here.
