Edge Rooftop

The views were absolutely stunning, and the cocktails were top-notch. This place is perfect for those impromptu hangouts when you haven't made a reservation. It's just the right spot to catch up with friends visiting from out of town in a laid-back setting. Chelsea, our server, was incredibly sweet and went out of her way to make sure we had everything we needed.

If it hadn't been freezing that night, we would've definitely stayed longer. The fact that it's on the fourth floor of the JW Marriott made it so convenient - when we got too cold, we just headed downstairs to the lobby bar without any hassle.

I'll definitely be returning. Can't wait to experience it again.

Nice view and vibe.
I didn't stay long, just had drinks and appetizers with friends.
Unfortunately, it was a little too windy to stay in, especially with long hair all over the face
However, it's a great place for an evening of viewing Austin's skyscrapers and chill.
I'll definitely be back.

I made a reservation for 12 (their max size) for my friend's and my birthday. They asked what the occasion was when I made the reservation, but that seemed to be of no importance (last year, we got free birthday shots at Zanzibar). The bar is only on the fifth floor of the JW Marriott, which was kind of a disappointment when we stepped into the elevators that went from floors 5-24. There was no signage in the hotel lobby for Edge Rooftop. The view wasn't very good--there was only one side that has an okay view of a few buildings.

The cocktails were pricey, which was expected, but we weren't even paying for a good view. I got the Sunset on Congress, which is a cocktail with gin and aperol. It wasn't bad; my friends liked it more than I did. My friend who got the Mexican Candied Paloma said it was inferior to the ones he is used to. I tried it, and the tajin on the rim seemed to be the only good part. The Sangria on the West End came in a large glass, and it tasted watered down but not bad. I tried my friend's Lady Bird mocktail, which we both agreed was too sweet. Finally, I had the Texas Sipper, which was so bubbly and tasted like I was drinking Topo Chico (which it has). For food, my friend ordered the California Bowl, which she thought would be like a quinoa bowl, but there was barely any quinoa and a lot of leaves.

The service was mixed. We had weird experiences with three different servers, one who seemed very disoriented, and two who appeared irritated by our request to adjust the level of the fire. The fire pit was very nice as it was a chilly evening.

Chill and open space on the 5th floor of the Marriot Hotel.

It wasnt too busy on a Friday night, there is plenty of seating and the view is really nice of downtown and the Capitol. Its also next to a pool that lit up at night and its quite relaxing.
Romantic for a date or if youre going in large groups there is definitely enough space.

The drinks were good, we had the old fashioned and blended pina colada. Pina colada has a considerable serving that me as a light weight cant finish it all but very refreshing and sweet. They have some eats/snack options too.

Two friends and I went to the Snow Much Fun event and it was definitely overhyped on social media. They have some picturesque decor and it "snows" every hour on the hour, but with the wind the snow blew back onto the building so it was pretty anticlimactic. Despite that, the view from the rooftop was really pretty, but if you're going there to feel the Christmas spirit, don't get your hopes too high.

The drinks were decently priced (about $15-20/drink - which is pretty good in comparison to the other Christmas pop ups around town). We went on a Friday night and had a reservation, which I highly recommend (when we checked in, others that didn't have reservation had a two hour wait). We stayed for about an hour and most tables were empty. Our server was really nice but she barely checked in on us.

Y'all! What a wonderful experience. Using OpenTable I made reservations for Monday night. We arrived on time and they seated us immediately by a fire which was warm and cozy. The drink menu and bar food menu had wonderful light snacks and mixed drinks. The appetizers were great and the hot buttered rum was nice. The best part? Well, the snow of course! It was like being in Denver on a rooftop bar when it snows. The lights, the incredible service and the snow made this a terrific evening.
Jingle all the way!

Great service from start to finish. This place has a great view of the immediate area. It's big with plenty of different styles of seating. We walked in past the bar, not knowing we were supposed to be seated by the hostess. She came over and told us we could find just the right spot first, and then come see her for a seat. We did, and she did! It was a bit windy and chilly, so we sat at a hightop table by one of the many gas fire pits. Our server, Carloine, was absolutely one of the best servers ever! We were there just for a drink and dessert. Although their dessert options are very limited, we've never met a Key Lime Pie we didn't like, so that's what we shared. It was a bit on the sweeter side than the tart side....delicious! I didn't peruse the whole cocktail menu because we wanted a glass of Cabernet or Red Blend. They have a few of each to choose from. We both had one of their two Cabs. The wine was very good too. We had a nice quiet, relaxing time without feeling rushed or pressured. It's a really modern, classy place to have an after dinner drink.

Great rooftop bar on the 5th floor of the JW Marriott. Nice views and a great spot to check out a sunset. It has a small food menu, mainly small plates, so don't go hungry. But service was good and friendly . Good drinks als

This spot located inside the Marriot Hotel has an incredible view of downtown Austin!

We came on a Friday night and it wasn't too busy or too wild to have a good conversation with friends. This is a great place for a date, catch up with friends, or if you wanna impress someone with the view.

Drinks were a solid 8/10. No copper mug for the Moscow Mule, (iykyk). The Texas Sipper was delicious and the Tito's paired well with the elderflower and blood orange. The seats were comfy and we sat immediately with a reservation.

Our server was incredible and always made sure we had a drink in hand and extremely attentive. Every server and bartender in here were working hard for a Friday! Kudos to them.

In all, if you want less of a club vibe and more of a lounge + drinks experience overlooking Austin, this is the way to do it. There also was more bars and restaurants inside the Hotel.

I planned a small corporate holiday gathering at Snow Much Fun - featuring a menu of festive cocktails, hor d's and hourly fake snow (foam party anyone??) It was a fun and cute holiday vibe and defor. Prices are definitely hotel prices. The service was attentive.
