sky bar

Rooftop drinking establishment

A sky bar is a rooftop bar or lounge, typically atop a high-rise hotel, offering panoramic city views along with drinks: We watched the sunset from the sky bar on the 40th floor.

The term emphasizes elevation and atmosphere over the drinks themselves.

Sky Bar is also a brand of segmented chocolate candy bar with different fillings in each section.
