Brisbane Might Be Getting a New Rooftop Bar
Developers have lodged an application to take over the rooftop at 200 Adelaide Street.
Why have a drink at ground level when you can sip cocktails with a sky-high view? Why indeed. Thanks to Brisbane's love of rooftop bars, grabbing a beverage at great heights has become one of the city's favourite pastimes — and there's always room for one more lofty watering hole, isn't there?
In news so fresh, the bar in question doesn't even have a name yet, 200 Adelaide Street is the latest address to flirt with turning its roof over to tipples. Developers have lodged an application to transform the heritage-listed building's top floor. Sure, it's only seven storeys up, but, given that the site sits on the corner of Adelaide and Edward Streets next door to Anzac Square, it'll boast quite the scenic vantage point.
As well as the obvious boozy offerings, the proposed 323-square-metre venue will also a kitchen, plus a variety of eating and drinking spaces spanning high bar tables, lounge seating and casual dining. Landscaping-wise, a hanging garden is planned to give the place a suitably sub-tropical atmosphere, as well as plenty of other greenery around the site's edge and on trellises.
Yep, when Brissie embraces a trend, we sure do go all in, with the Adelaide Street bar slated to join other recent high-rise additions such Sixteen Antlers, Sazerac, Eleven and Eagles Nest. We can only assume that someone's cooking up a rooftop burger and doughnut bar somewhere around town. Now that'd be the ultimate combination of everything that this city loves.
