Rooftop zamalek

Restaurant Bar

😐 I went to the place one time. I ordered cream mushroom soup, rice, a bottle of wine, chicken pane, potato fries. What I liked: - The view is mesmerizing. - The space is large. - The lighting is warm and beautiful. - The way wine was served with ice cubes and goblets was lovely. What I disliked: -... People often mention view, good, beer, Nile, service, nice, drinks, menu, music, Good,

    I went to the place one time. I ordered cream mushroom soup, rice, a bottle of wine, chicken pane, potato fries. What I liked: - The view is mesmerizing. - The space is large. - The lighting is warm and beautiful. - The way wine was served with ice cubes and goblets was lovely. What I disliked: - I ordered a bottle of wine from a certain brand, and it was not available, I ordered another and it was not available either, I had to order what was available and it was not the type that I used to order. I suggest making sure you have sufficient quantities of the drinks listed on the menu. - I ordered multiple meals and were not available, I suggest they buy a bigger fridge. - Prices are a lot high, I don't know why, the price of a bottle of wine was twice as much as it was in the store on the street. - Some of the staff were unfriendly, didn't speak well to us, others were excellent and friendly. - The place is a roof of a hotel, I suggest replacing the name of the place to be the roof of such a hotel, since what you can reach is the name of the hotel.

    Great view of the Nile! Getting there is a bit strange, but once you're there, it's worth it.

    I always loved this place! Very vivid and dynamic, full of young people enjoying time. The place oversee a wonderful view of the Nile in Cairo. They offer ice-cold beer, other alcohol are also available with a decent menu of appetizers and snaks. It is an excellent place to chill with friends after a busy day, where you can enjoy the view, breeze and music. Staff are friendly and quick, the prices are really excellent too.

    I'm gonna mention my experience as someone who is enjoying the lunch there not the liquor. We ordered alfredo pasta, cream mushroom soup, and chicken platter. PROS 👍 ■ All food was delicious especially the chicken platter. ■ Staff are friendly 🤵 ■ View is chilling and beautiful. ■ Fewer flies are present as it is located as a roof compared to ground floor restaurants. ■ Place is quiet and empty during daytime. CONS 👎 ■ No car parkings. ■ Few seats that overlook the river. Follow me @ my IG account @Review.products.eg

    Good place to have something to drink with a nice view of the Nile. Otherwise, I don’t recommend eating here, and the service wasn’t something to remember fondly.

    Prime location overlooking D'Nile 😂 Great place to kickback and have a drink over looking the Nile River in Egypt. One of Cairo's little gems. Prices are totally reasonable. Beers are 50LE and staff are attentive for table service. You can BYO and pay corkage too 🍻

    Great view cold beers but the food is not recommended. They ought to fix it up more and make it a proper club and take advantage of its amazing setting.

  • 4/5 Walid Z. 2 years ago on Google
    View is awesome, service is good. But the place is a little bit old and some decorations are broken. Food is good little bit expensive compared to quantity and quality but still acceptable as the view is a real awesome. Also you can enjoy hard drinks in a very reasonable prices. Overall I liked it so much. There are a minimum charge with only 100 LE but you will ofcourse pay more so no need to worry about it.

  • 1/5 Hadeel I. 1 year ago on Google
    Rip off at the entrance to buy a mask for 5 egp. Stupid rule that they dont apply to everyone. Claiming it's for the elevator. They dont even care if you put it on they only care that you pay. Very annoying and rude security staff. He let people after us without mask.

    The view is absolutely magnificent! The rest is horrific! Terrible hotel that looks like something from a horror movie. The rooftop cafe is so old and destitute, it looks like a place from a post apocalypse world! We were coming for food but looking at the plates in the neighboring table, we didn't even bother to risk it!

  • 5/5 Abdelrhman E. 4 months ago on Google • 17 reviews
    If you're looking for a quick beer with a view that's not going to break the bank, then I would highly recommend it. And under no circumstances you should buy food there, maybe French fries and that's it.

  • 2/5 Thu Hoa N. 2 months ago on Google • 12 reviews New
    The view is nice, but the way up is in a very shabby elevator. There is a 150 minimum spend each person, i got 3 straws and they're all broken, the drinks all taste questionable. If you want to pay just for the view, i guess? But I'm sure there's other rooftops around with the same view and better quality.

  • 2/5 Khaled T. 3 years ago on Google
    You got yourself a drink at moderate price with a view on the Nile! Nothing else. The place itself is humble, service is not professional and not according to standards but you won't be bothered it's okay enough. Good for group of friends, if you want to impress someone or have date, definitely its not the place for that.

  • 5/5 kristian l. 3 years ago on Google
    Worth it just for the view, but a nice place for a beer or two as well (they also serve soft drinks and coffee etc). Can get cold on the roof with the wind so keep that in mind if you decide to visit. I'll definitely be coming back!

  • 3/5 Angel 3 years ago on Google
    Great Nile View from the roof top. Stella and pasta we had. It was ok. Views are great

  • 4/5 Marwan S. 3 years ago on Google
    Best place to go with a view and have a drink. However I do not recommend eating there unless it's appitizers or something fried.

  • 1/5 Mohamed M. 3 years ago on Google
    The view is great. Everything else is awful. The food is really bad, the soft drinks are not the best. You can get better service and quality for much less prices. They need to clean and get better chief.

  • 4/5 Omar H. 3 years ago on Google
    I do really love this place as it's a hidden gem in Cairo with a great view, But sometimes the menu is so poor and most of the things are not available which is boring, Also They apply Minimum Charge such as EGP 50 in the morning and EGP 70 in the evening, But over all i love this place and it's amazing view

  • 3/5 Monica W. 3 years ago on Google

    Good place in zamal3k to enjoy the view and have a beer

  • 4/5 The Foodie T. 3 years ago on Google
    It was not bad. Nice view at around the sunset time and a nice open set up. It can be better if they play good music or have a better control with small flies. Got a big beer (stella) for 65 le. Kinda hard to find the entrance but just go into the hotel entrance as it seems to be part of the hotel. Personally a rooftop bar/restaurant can be much better than this place but since many websites/blogs recommended this place I guess there is not much of better option in Cairo.

    The music there is rubbish that it gavr me a migraine, and I had to leave after paying the minimum charge which was very expensive, whilst I couldn't even see the nile because the place was very crowded w mafeesh seats keter. I asked for mango juice or watermelon; which are both in the menu. Yet, they don't have them.

  • 2/5 Abdelrahman E. 3 years ago on Google
    The staff seems to be there against their will. The only good thing about the place is the view that is actually ruined be a seemingly haunted house next to the Nile River.

  • 1/5 Ram A. 2 years ago on Google
    Worst place to hang out at everrr… No hygiene, unprofessional staff, dirty restrooms and a bit pricey with minimum charge 120 LE .. which gives other places more chances. HIGHLY Not RECOMMENDED ❌❌❌❌❌❌❌❌❌❌❌❌❌❌❌

    -food was really good -service was good BUT kind of really expensive foe what it is REALLY not honest with you, they charged without telling you , when you think it’s included. -services is included ,you don’t have to tip, but they will tell you to tip also that the top is not included with make no sens. It’s sad , because we got a good experience until the end

  • 2/5 Dany K. 1 year ago on Google
    Drinks were very expensive (almost 100 EAP for a beer), view was partly obstructed by a net. Food was not good We were tricked into buying masks by the security, even though nobody wore/needs them.

  • 2/5 Marco G. 1 year ago on Google
    Fantastic view. Aatmosphere is cool too. Shame service is terrible. Theyy never came to the table, after I politely asked for help they slapped the menu on the table and didn't even clean what the stuff that was there before us. They then tried to take our drinks whilst we were still drinking them.

  • 2/5 Maud B. 1 year ago on Google
    I've been there twice. Very nice view and I guess it's what we pay for. But the beer is never opened in front of you. The bottle comes wet as it was rinsed and the Meister beer did not taste Meister beer. First time since I live in Egypt they do not open the beer in front of me (Meister mainly). The food is not special. The view is.

    One of the nicest night views of Zamalek. I am not sure if I was there, at the wrong time, but the setting out and music were not at all inviting for me to order anything. There is a minimum charge, so you can't go there and order a coffee only, better go hungry. Average place, but affordable and has nice view of the nile.

    Don’t come here! Das Essen meiner Freundin war kalt und ekelig. Mein Essen war zwar heiß, aber genauso ekelhaft. Die Kellner sind unfreundlich und schauen einem nichtmal in die Augen. Der Ausblick ist gut, aber es gibt keine shisha.

  • 4/5 Shoe Mo A. 7 months ago on Google
    Great location, abit hidden once at the front; basically a non descriptive lobby to a hotel of sorts. Take the lift up to the “4th floor” go up a flight of stairs and you’re there. Good place to hangout in the evening with the Nile view. Local beers are £115 per bottle, avoid the local wine at all cost.

  • 1/5 Malaka A. 7 months ago on Google
    This is the dirtiest place I’ve been in, I understand authenticity and all but u can still do it clean like look at how stinky the menu is. I ordered soap and fries as a safe option.
