Iris Rooftop: Where Glamour Meets the Sky in True BrisVegas Style
Iris Rooftop: Where Glamour Meets the Sky in True BrisVegas Style
By www.BrisVegas.com.au
High above the buzz of Brunswick Street, nestled on the rooftop of the chic Hotel X, lies a little slice of sky-high heaven — Iris Rooftop. She’s got curves, cocktails, and killer views, and she’s every bit as fabulous as her name suggests. Think European beach club meets Mediterranean daydream, splashed with Fortitude Valley sass and that unmistakable BrisVegas flair.
From the moment you exit the elevator and step into Iris’s world, the vibe hits you: plush lounges, breezy palms, champagne flutes clinking, and that glorious 270-degree panorama of Brisbane sparkling like a glass of prosecco in the sun. Whether you’re here for a long lunch, a boujee date night, or a “just one drink” that turns into five, Iris sets the scene for rooftop revelry done right.
Let’s talk food, because Iris doesn’t just serve looks — she serves flavour. The menu is Mediterranean-inspired and perfect for sharing (or not, we don’t judge). Start with the whipped hummus with chickpea panisse and green olive oil — silky, savoury and dangerously addictive. The zucchini flowers with ricotta and honey are pure rooftop decadence, while the crisp calamari with chilli aioli practically flies off the plate.
Feeling fancy? The dry-aged sirloin with salsa verde is a meaty masterpiece, and the whole market fish (often served butterflied and blistered with lemon and capers) tastes like something straight from a Greek island taverna. Don’t sleep on the sides either — the patatas bravas and charred broccolini with almond cream could easily steal the show.
Now, onto the real party trick: the cocktails. Iris brings her A-game with a creative, curated list that’s both playful and potent. The “Golden Hour” is as dreamy as its name — vodka, elderflower, and citrus, with a shimmer that catches the sunset just right. The “Santorini Sour”, a tangy gin concoction with citrus and blue curaçao, is basically a holiday in a glass. Want something a bit cheeky? Order the “Valley Girl”, a punchy passionfruit number that’ll have you dancing before dessert.
And speaking of dessert — if you leave without trying the churros with dulce de leche and chocolate sauce, we may have to revoke your BrisVegas card.
By night, Iris glows. DJs bring the heat, the champagne flows, and the skyline twinkles like the city’s in on the fun. The crowd? A dazzling mix of locals, influencers, lovers, and people who just really like cocktails with a view. Iris isn’t just a rooftop bar — she’s a mood.
