It combines a casual atmosphere, exotic cocktails, great bar food and smooth tunes with the best view in the city. Chilled music, with live DJs at the weekend, draws a cool atmosphere. This bar is the obvious meeting place for tourists as well as local audience who want to enjoy wide choice of cocktails, great finger food and amazing view over Riga city. Coming to Riga you definitely should visit Skyline Bar - the one and only cocktail lounge in the sky! « less

This bar is ultimate proof that just because people are flocking into a place it does not mean that it has to be good. First: on weekends, they charge 2 LVL entrance fee - no doubt in order to keep those people out who want to come to this roof-top bar just to take in the scenery. In general that... More

Somewhat serviceminded staff with an ordinary "eastern Europe" level of service. Drinks OK, view splendid. Nice interior.

On the 26th floor of the Radisson Blu hotel (5min walk from the Liberty monument), this bar is definitely worth a visit - views all over the city & Monday-Friday happy hour between 5-7pm :-)

The Skyline Bar is located on the top floor of the Radisson Blu Latvija, one of the tallest buildings. You just walk across the lobby to the right and hop on to the elevator. On the corridor before the bar entrance there are windows to look out, but if you're there after 4pm you should definitely grab a chair next... More

They will charge you 2 lats to get in. It has some amazing views! Has chillout music in the background. Great cocktails priced around 3-4 lats each. Lots of comfy sofas etc. At night this place is like a nightclub, but still with a chilloutvibe. There are a few sniper women here however. Women who dress up and approach guys... More

I was slightly taken aback when they asked for 2 Lats to enter the bar, as this had not been the case on my 2 previous visits to Riga. It goes without saying that the views are wonderful, especially if the weather is clear but I wouldn't chose to spend a whole evening there. Riga offers many bars/pubs which have... More

The view is nice and we had great service from a very friendly waitress. The Saturday Night music is geared towards a 30 something crowd, and the dancefloor was at times completely packed. The drinks were reasonably priced, probably expensive by Riga standards, but we didn't notice. I did think they were quite weak. Our fellow guests included a lot... More

We paid an entrance fee to get in to the bar which was a surprise. Upon finding a seat we were served pretty quickly, our order was taken and promptly the cocktails were delivered. The cocktails seemed well priced however everyone in our group of 8 commented on the seemingly lack of alcohol in them as they tasted very weak.... More

A wonderful panoramic view is offered here, that is where the good aspect ends. The bar was busy, but the staff, once the eventually acknowledge y that are wishing to be served at the bar, are rude, arrogant, complacent and will slam the drinks down whilst demanding payment. The whole experience was soured by shocking service, which is an awful... More
