If you thought Kangaroo Point was just about cliffside climbs and river views, it’s time to raise your glass—literally—at Sunsets Rooftop, the newest high-altitude hotspot bringing desert flair, sky-high vibes, and cracking cocktails to the BrisVegas bar scene.
Located atop the Linton Apartments, this cheeky little oasis offers 360-degree views of Brisbane’s shimmering skyline, with front-row seats to the Gabba (so yes, you can sip a spritz while the Lions roar or the cricket smashes on). But don’t expect your typical rooftop aesthetic—Sunsets is pure Palm Springs meets Outback chic, complete with cacti, soft coral hues, and sun-drenched vibes that’ll make you feel like you’ve stumbled onto the set of a Coachella afterparty.
And let’s talk about the menu—because what’s a rooftop without something delicious to sink your teeth into?
First up, cocktails. They’re not just drinks here—they’re desert potions. The “Desert Rose” is a spicy little number featuring chilli tequila, watermelon and lime—sweet, sexy, and packing a punch (just like your last Hinge date). If gin’s more your jam, the “Sun-Kissed Garden” is a fresh and floral blend of gin, elderflower, cucumber and lemon that tastes like spring in a glass. And for those who like their sunsets with a little sparkle, the “Golden Hour Spritz”—Prosecco, blood orange and bitters—is basically a boozy postcard.
Not a cocktail connoisseur? No drama, darling. There’s a stacked wine list, a solid rotation of local craft beers, and even a few zero-proof elixirs for the responsible legends among us.
Now, onto the food, which leans heavily into Mediterranean-meets-Middle East share plate territory. Think falafel with labneh, spiced lamb skewers, and crispy halloumi fries that deserve their own OnlyFans. The beetroot hummus with flatbread is a table-starting must, and the chargrilled chicken with tahini and pomegranate will have you contemplating a second order. Feeling fancy? The prawn tostadas are light, zesty, and utterly Instagrammable.
But what really sets Sunsets Rooftop apart? The vibe. This place isn’t trying too hard—it knows it’s hot and just leans into it. With chilled DJ sets on weekends, soft desert lighting, and plenty of lush lounges to laze on, it’s the kind of venue where one drink quickly turns into five… and suddenly you’re planning a trip to Joshua Tree (or at least the Valley Pool).
Whether you’re on a first date, a girls’ night, or you’ve just finished yelling at the footy and need a classy reset, Sunsets Rooftop brings the sunshine, the sass, and a little slice of magic hour magic—BrisVegas style.
