Lina Rooftop Bar in BrisVegas

Rooftop Indulgence in BrisVegas: A Review of Lina Rooftop

By www.BrisVegas.com.au

If you’ve ever wanted to sip cocktails poolside while pretending you’re in the South of France — minus the long-haul flight and questionable airport snacks — Lina Rooftop in South Brisbane is your golden ticket. Perched 12 floors above the bustling streets below, this sun-drenched stunner blends European beach club chic with sky-high Brissy vibes, and yes, it absolutely delivers.

Lina Rooftop isn’t just a bar — it’s a full-blown lifestyle. You walk in and BAM — there it is: a jaw-dropping 30-metre infinity pool glistening like it belongs on a postcard from the Côte d’Azur. Around it, plush daybeds and cabanas invite you to settle in, sip slowly, and watch the world (and the skyline) go by. It’s more boujee than a Real Housewives brunch, but that’s what we love about it.

The view? Oh, just a casual 180-degree panorama of Brisbane’s glittering skyline. From golden-hour sun-kissed towers to twinkling city lights at night, this is your backdrop for rooftop revelry. Perfect for date night, girls’ night, or just treating yourself like the main character you are.

Now, let’s talk food — because Lina didn’t come to play when it comes to the menu. Chef Kelvin Andrews has curated a Mediterranean-style lineup that feels like a love letter to coastal Europe. Think chargrilled king prawns with chilli garlic butter, lamb koftas with smoked eggplant, and the kind of burrata that could make you cry tears of joy. The grilled baby octopus with romesco sauce is a must-try — it’s tender, smoky, and downright sexy.

For those chasing a lighter bite (maybe you’ve got that poolside pose in mind), there are gorgeously plated salads like the roasted beetroot with whipped feta or the watermelon, cucumber and mint combo that screams summer on a plate.

Cocktail-wise, Lina’s bar game is strong. The signature “Lina Spritz” is dangerously sippable, combining elderflower, sparkling wine and a touch of citrus for that perfect rooftop refresher. Fancy something bold? Try the “Coastal Negroni” with a gin-and-vermouth twist that hits just right as the sun dips below the skyline. There’s also a wine list that globetrots from France to Australia with elegance — plus plenty of bubbles if you’re in a celebratory mood (which, let’s face it, you will be up there).

But here’s the kicker: Lina isn’t just about pretty views and prettier people. The service is slick, the vibe is upbeat but never pretentious, and the entire space is designed to make you feel like you’ve escaped the ordinary. Whether you’re lazing in a poolside cabana or toasting with friends at the bar, it’s got that effortless wow factor that defines BrisVegas glam.

Hot Tip: Book in advance if you want poolside access — it’s a hot ticket, especially on weekends. And don’t forget to follow them on Instagram (@lina.rooftop) for serious rooftop FOMO.
