Perched atop the 14th floor of the Via Catarina parking structure, LIFT Rooftop offers some of the most breathtaking panoramic views of Porto—stretching across Bolhão Market, Clérigos Tower, Porto Cathedral, and even Vila Nova de Gaia . 🔹 Ambience • A trendy, garden-inspired setup with modern lounge seating and strategic greenery creates an airy yet intimate vibe . • Live DJs spin mid-week through the weekend, while calmer evenings feature low-key background music—a perfect balance for both party-goers and laid-back drinkers . 🍽️ Food & Drink • The menu leans toward light bites—nachos, cheese boards, hamburgers, salads, and açai bowls . • Cocktails are a highlight: guests rave about creative mixes like the candy-sweet Hawkins and staples like Crazy in Love and excellent sangrias . • One TripAdvisor review notes: “Nice nachos and good cocktails… fun for an evening or two.” ⭐ Atmosphere & Service • Service is friendly and enthusiastic—even helping guests with games—though occasionally a bit slower during busy times . • Accessible for large groups and perfect for watching the golden hour sunset over the city .

We have been here, nice view but the surroundings is not well maintained. Sometimes music is working and sometimes nobody care … My honest opinion is 3/5 It could be better if….
