This bar has one of the best views in Shanghai! The cocktails are OK and expect prices to be on par with other places in the Bund area (around 90~110 RMB).

- Lester AmaraNovember 6, 2018Good service and ambience. Food and drinks are a bit pricey, however the location and picturesque view of the skyline at night make up for it. Reservations are a must if you wish to be seated outside.Upvote3Downvote
Ankur BanerjeeMarch 4, 2018Chilled out place with a nautical vibe and great views of the Shanghai skyline over the Bund. It's bit hidden and usually not that busy. If ordering a sharing item of food, it even comes in a boat!

Dan CastellanoMarch 21, 2019Fabulous speakeasy overlooking The Bund, drinks are pricey but standard price and worth it if you consider the ambience and view. Patio seating and brunch on weekends.

Kaitlyn ReedNovember 13, 2017No more happy hour specials but you really can’t beat the view of the Bund. Enter the hostel, take the elevator to the top floor then go up one more flight of stairs. Bar to your right.Upvote1Downvote
Rost DanAugust 23, 2019This rooftop bar is on the 6th floor of a hostel. Great view relaxed vibe and mostly you can find a seat. Beer by glass from 60RMB. Staff speaks English.

Dang LeMarch 4, 2015Not much of a selection for beers, other drinks vary. The prices are a bit high. You're paying for the decent view though, so it makes sense. Make sure to go on a clear day to make it worth it.Upvote1Downvote- Lars GinnerupSeptember 29, 2018Great bar with outside terrace with view of the Bund. Friendly service and well-made cocktails.

KEMay 10, 2019Don’t get the quesadilla, it’s actually only 1/2 a quesadilla. Ridiculously overpriced. Atmosphere is a bit corny. View is fine, but not worth it in my opinion!
