Rooftop Views, Golden Hour Vibes, and Your Next Favorite Hangout Above The Market: The Nest at the Thompson Hotel

Seattle Isn’t Exactly Overflowing with Rooftop Bars

Seattle's rooftop bars are a rare find. This makes the good ones, especially during our brief non-rainy months, worth seeking out. The Nest sits at the top of that list.

Perched 12 stories above Downtown on the Thompson Hotel, The Nest offers stunning views that remind you why you love this city. You can see Elliott Bay stretching west, ferries carving their routes, and the Olympic Mountains in the distance. As the city skyline lights up behind you, catching this view at sunset will make you understand why people plan their evenings around it.

The Nest isn’t just about the scenery. The drinks here are exceptional. You’ll find seasonal cocktails that balance craft and creativity. The wine list is worth exploring, and the food pairs perfectly with the view instead of just filling the space. The vibe is elevated but not exclusive. It’s stylish without trying too hard.

That’s why we’re excited to bring our community here for September’s Last Tuesday Happy Hour. This is your chance to meet new people, strengthen connections, and enjoy a setting that feels very “Seattle.” It’s the version we brag about to out-of-towners but rarely take the time to enjoy ourselves.
