This is a hidden gem in Dunedin. They make a mean margarita and always have great beers on draft. The sunset vibe is the best - it's always packed so make sure you head there early to get a spot. read more

Rooftop bar with tasty drinks and attentive staff. Very unfortunate that they don't use the old Prohibition speakeasy location downstairs as an actual bar. read more

Hi-Fi Rooftop Bar - Great sangria with an amazing view. - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Dunedin, Florida

My husband & I live nearby. We first came here on a February Sat evening. Beautiful view, drinks and service. We brought 2 family members here on 4/10/21 in the afternoon. A storm was rolling in and the staff kindly informed us. My mom doesn't drink and the server/bartender was happy to create a mocktail for her. We had time for 1 drink and then everyone headed to the hotel lobby. That's when we noticed their awesome historical exhibit, the old speakeasy entrance. All of the staff at the hotel & lounge we've encountered were incredibly welcoming! From the complimentary valet to hosts, front desk, bartenders, servers, etc. They make you feel like VIP, even if we're just there for a drink. We love this place & will keep coming back. Thank you! read more

This is a very cool and trendy rooftop bar overlooking St. Joseph's sound in Dunedin, right off Edgewater Drive. If the weather is good, there are awesome sunset views if the weather cooperates. Even when it is "Florida hot," there is usually a nice breeze in the evening. I'm giving this 5-stars because I have never had a bad time here. That being said, it is not perfect. You usually have to go to the bar for drinks--table service is spotty. While there is some food available, it is very limited. And.. drinks are pricey. However -- parking is easy -- valet only -- and is free for bar guests. Try the "Cool Cat" - it's a vodka martini with basil. Great summer drink. read more

Hey, you can't beat the cool location & vibe of the panoramic Gulf water views of this rooftop bar. The food is really good, like the meatballs & flatbreads. The bartenders are affable, prompt, & attentive, even when it is packed with people. However, & this is a big however, the mixed drinks & craft cocktails served are VERY light on the liquor. If it had been on one or two occasions, I would say it was just a bad day, or an untalented bartender. But, I have been to this rooftop bar about 15 times, & every single time, weak drinks with too little liquor added. Otherwise, I would give 5 stars, aside from this egregious error. Personally, if you want a more personal experience, & much better cocktails with ample liquor, go inside to Fenway's indoor bar. It's much more intimate & certain days of the week they have excellent live music. read more

If you're looking for a fun sunset experience in the Tampa area this bar is a go to. As the sun is setting the bartenders choose one person to play the symbols as the sun finally sets. We went for cocktails before having dinner downstairs and we're not disappointed! read more

A beautiful view, good drinks, fun staff, and a great place, for they made up events

Super rude! We were looking to have a going away outing here, and I was condescended on for having brought a cake. "You can't bring outside food, this is a restaurant. Did you get management approval?" Gee, didn't realize that "Bar" is synonymous with "Restaurant." Thanks, but I'll never visit this place again. Lost out on 15 people paying for $10 drinks. read more

We spent an exteded amount of time at the rooftop bar while staying at the hotel. The rooftop has a great view of the water and a nice breeze. The cocktails are pretty good up there and they are helpful with accommodations for gluten (for example substituting Tito's vodka which is GF). The vibe and atmosphere is nice during the day as well as at night. read more

Great views atmosphere and service! It was in the mid 80s but the breeze coming off the water was wonderful! Lots of different seating choices! read more

Beautiful view. I recommend this place for drinks only, not food. The food menu is limited and average. The burger was equivalent to what you can get at the 5 Guys fast food burger joint, and it would have cost a lot less! Nothing to rave about. I was very disappointed because this is a boutique hotel property under the Marriott Autograph collection and expected higher quality, because this is a real upmarket spot. I am a world traveler and when you dine at a 4 star hotel, you expect better food and presentation. I was so disappointed when they brought the food in a little box and handed me a package of sealed cheap plastic cutlery that was so flimsy I could barely stick it into my burger without the fork tongs breaking and plastic edge on the knife couldn't even pierce the food! Presentation is important and I would have accepted a paper napkin but please provide proper eating utensils! The food here is pricey. This is not acceptable for a high end boutique hotel! It really tarnishes the classy image of the property. Hotel Manager I hope you read this and will take this into consideration. Even mediocre food looks and tastes better when presented properly! read more

Fun place in town to have a few drinks and watch the sunset. During tourist season (November - February) seating can be limited. They just stared adding small snacks to the bar menu. Update: July 2019. Still a fun hang out that attracts a nice crowd. Be forewarned that seating can be limited especially on weekends. It doesn't help that they remove all the chairs from one side of the bar to make it standing only. Still a great sunset view read more

Hi-Fi Rooftop Bar - Hummus and crackers (left) and Roasted Garlic and Herb spread - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Dunedin, Florida

Great spot to enjoy the view & have a cocktail! The view is fantastic! Come early to see the sunset - at night you won't see too much. I heard you need to get here an hour before sunset if you want to be able to see it or else the place is too crowded.. Very windy - bring a jacket if here in the evening! read more

Great cocktails, awesome view! Service was good, not great, but they were a little busy (glad to see it). We also ordered food and it was a bit better than bar food...flatbread we wanted was sold out, got the other one. Would go back for drinks and the view again. read more

The food here was delicious and so was the sangria! Perfect for a girls brunch day! The only downside was all the bees! I'm absolutely terrified of them so it made my anxiety sky high the entire time lol if you don't mind bees though it's an awesome place! read more

Bring your EpiPen, there are bees flying all over the place. Great views, average service, and are kids allowed or not? Our friends 6 month old (in a stroller) got kicked out but on this visit there are kids running all over the place. Would be nicer if they had some snacks or even offer peanut butter and jelly Sammy's, zero food upstairs. Back for Mother's Day. More bees. read more

Hi-Fi Rooftop Bar - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Dunedin, Florida

This place looses one star since you have to eat your ordered food from a plastic box and eat it with ditto utensils...not compatible with the otherwise perfect setting. It is a BAR after all and NOT a restaurant so...come here for drinks. read more

The renovated Fenway Hotel is a nice addition to the area. One of the best parts is this new rooftop bar. The have cocktails, wine, and a good selection of craft beer. I had the burger and fries. It was delicious and a huge portion. Try to get here at sunset and you'll definitely enjoy your visit. read more

Hi-Fi Rooftop Bar - 3rd floor entry - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Dunedin, Florida

We enjoyed cocktails at the interior bar with Ava as our bartender. She was extremely welcoming and has a wonderful energetic personality directed to all of her guests. We enjoyed craft cocktails even a special whiskey bramble she made my husband. We enjoyed her cocktails so much, after spendi g time on rooftop deck bar we went back down to enjoy another one of her delicious drinks. We come to Dunedin often and will definitely come back to visit a new found favorite read more

Great food and service. All the staff was nice and accommodating. My son was in town and he wanted to go bar hopping with his mom. We started at the Hi Fi Rooftop and we never left until we went home. Once we arrived and he saw the view, then talking to the staff about their favorites on the appetizers and menu. We ordered one app at a time the first was incredible, the meatballs!! My son travels quite a bit and so he wanted to eat the pork belly, I not had it before (scaredy-cat to try), Wow it was delicious. We saw a customer returning her pork belly because...... she said it was burnt. Apparently she didn't understand that that's how it is prepared. I have told many friends and are coming back again and again. You have a special place up on the rooftop. Keep up the great food and service! read more

Beautiful place to watch the sunset- even on a stormy evening. A friend who lives in the neighborhood recommended this place and it was perfect for our family. We were lucky enough to have Eva as our waitress as well and she didn't disappoint. She had great tips about the menu and she's a mom so she knew how to take care of our two boys . Great spot for solid food, great atmosphere and beautiful views. read more

I absolutely recommend this place to any that is looking for a cool place to just chill and enjoy the nice Florida breeze. The set up is super dope there's areas to just out an relax. I only had cocktails here but I believe they also offer bar food. The ambiance is super chill and relax no need to get dressed up to come here. This place is beat to come during the later afternoon early evenings the breeze feels so nice. read more

Great views but mediocre overpriced drinks. Definitely arrive at least 1 hour before sunset as it does get really crowded, if you want a seat or good view. The sunset views are gorgeous here, making the location perfect. We had to valet park as all the street parking is residential parking. Valet is complimentary though, so that's good. The crowd is definitely an older crowd, over 50. I ordered their spicy margarita and watched him make it. No jalapeños were used at all, he used a shake of crushed red peppers. That was a first for me as spicy margaritas are one of my favorite and they are always made with muddled jalapeños. So needless to say the crush red pepper did nothing for my drink as it was not spicy at all. It was not worth the $12! My husband ordered an old fashioned and it was good but they used crushed ice instead of one large ice cube like most places, so the drink got watered down quick. $24 for 2 watery drink is not worth it. Even a glass of wine for $9 was barely a 4 oz pour. Good place to watch the sunset but that's about it. As others mentioned the bees by the bar are out of control and watched one go into my drink as it sat there waiting to be served to me. The bartender did ask if I wanted him to remake it but I declined. It was fine, no bee allergies here. read more

Awesome views and great service for drinks on a Friday night. Didn't eat here, but maybe will try food next time.

Love the views here and the server was so friendly I wish I remembered his name. We ordered a flatbread and it took a little longer than usual so they comped it without us even thinking to ask for a discount which was so kind. But the flatbread and drinks were so good! I can't wait to come here again because it was such an enjoyable time. read more

Hi-Fi Rooftop Bar - Bar view - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Dunedin, Florida

Shocked I'm the second to review this in almost a month since they opened. This is a 4 star bar and there is no arguing the great view. However, you lose a star for service. I get it you just opened, but the servers were snooty, rude, indifferent, take your pick. You also lose a star for expensive drinks. My friend paid $30, before tax/tip for a basic 2 liquor call drink. Nothing special, not single malt scotch. Me, two local draft beers. But really, $60 total for 4 drinks, tax and decent tip? I'll be back, the view is great, just not sure it's worth the "entrance fee." I could spend the same money, get the same drinks, pay for parking and get a better view on Clearwater Beach. read more

If you ever find yourself in Dunedin, Fl, I would recommend a stay at The Fenway Hotel. It's a very cute, swanky hotel that has great vibes and such a friendly and accommodating staff! Even if you do not stay in this hotel, stopping by the rooftop bar or the hotel's restaurant is the move. Their classic burger and Truffle Parmesan Fries were both excellent. You could taste the quality of beef used for the burgers, and the truffle fries were some of the best fries I've ever had! The Heirloom Melon salad was tasty and juicy, and presented beautifully, but unfortunately is only available at the restaurant or bar downstairs (ie not rooftop). read more

Hi-Fi Rooftop Bar - Heirloom Melon Salad - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Dunedin, Florida

My friends and I went here this past weekend on vacation. Let me start by saying we are in our 20s, and not at ALL picky. It doesn't take much to impress us. However, we sat at the bar, and the entire time there were bees swarming around us, our food, and the bar. Bees were landing in our food the whole time we were eating. The worst part was that there were bees actively flying into drinks the bartender was making, and he would fish them out with a literal tiny net and serve them after, telling us this was "normal". There was an open beer bottle that was none of ours, sitting by us the whole time. Towards the end of dinner, there were multiple bees stuck in the bottle, and I saw this. The bar tender was alerted, grabbed the bottle right away and USED that beer to pour another customer's drink! Again, we are not picky by any means but this was extremely uncleanly in my opinion. Regarding the food, it was okay, somewhat bland. read more

One of the best bars in Dunedin! Go an hour before sunset to get a good spot. Highly recommended the margarita - so delicious!

I love it here! It's super busy, but such an amazing view and great bartenders. Nickie remember what I drank (mocktail pina colada) and that I don't use plastic or straws when I visited a second time. Great memory!! Andrea, the bartender downstairs is top notch too!!! read more

Hi-Fi Rooftop Bar - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Dunedin, Florida

We went there for the view but also for martinis. We were very disappointed that they didn't even have martini glasses!! What?? No martini glasses? And when I asked for "extra chilled" I was brought an extra cup of ice!! The food was brought to us in "lunch boxes" and my friend's burger was over cooked!! Very disappointing if not for the view and Jason, our server! He was great and very helpful and we couldn't blame him for the lack of martini glasses and the way the food was presented. Not sure I'll go back; maybe If I know I won't order a martini! read more

Great place to have a cocktail with friends , the view is absolutely gorgeous , the food menu is short but tasty . Highly recommended !

We went up to the bar on 4th of July in hopes of seeing some fireworks from the surrounding areas. We were able to see a few small bursts! Not open late enough and limited seating. Staff was super friendly! read more

Okay so the main thing about this place is that they have a fantastic view. That is the reason for the 3 stars and not one star. Unfortunately that's about it. Service is so slow it's ridiculous. We waited 15 minutes for drinks. It was busy but not that busy. Craft beer $7 bottle of Miller lite is $5. Great place to watch the sunset. We did eat dinner downstairs unfortunately that was just as disappointing. The decor downstairs you would think would be nostalgic art deco. It tries but with a marble table and wicker chairs somehow it loses any type of sophistication. It felt more like a cafeteria than anything. Would have been nice to eat outside on the rooftop but they only have three or four appetizers on the menu and nothing really that looked interesting. For dinner downstairs we had the special which was pan-seared salmon with rice and I substituted the broccolini instead of a cabbage. $36 which is way overpriced for what we got. Salmon absolutely no flavor, the broccolini was so tough that I almost didn't want to eat it but I was starving. My boyfriend got the scallops. $29 for 3. Again overpriced but at least they did taste good. Might be back just to see the sunset but other than that no reason to come here again. We were going to have a shot at the bar before we left but we found out a shot of whiskey was $16 a piece. Really? We don't mind paying a decent price for a shot but that's a little ridiculous. Hopefully management will read this make some changes. This place has the potential to be a million-dollar establishment unfortunately it's a million dollars short! read more

Great drink selection! The Mary something Mojito was amazing. Upstairs they had a limited food menu so we had to go downstairs to the full restaurant. read more

Stale crackers and 1/2 the substance of a real charcuterie board. Pathetic for $18. Service was just OK. Not the friendly and welcoming feeling I was hoping for. Can't say COVID19 didn't hurt there Product so will give them another chance per great ambiance. read more

I've been coming to the Hi-Fi Rooftop Bar since it opened. It's one of the highlights in Dunedin because of the view & the sunset and, more importantly, because Elaine, one of the bartenders, makes the BEST Cosmopolitan drink! So if you're in the area and you want to view a beautiful sunset and have the best Cosmo, ask for Elaine, and she will make the best one for you and you enjoy the awesome sunset! read more

Love coming to HiFi and watching the sunset. Elaine is always a great bartender and accommodates all requests, even when it is super busy. I always try to come here when I'm in town! read more

(10/25) First rooftop bar with a view in Dunedin. Great view of St Joseph's sound, on Edgewater Dr. Found out about their rooftop's soft opening on social media, so we decided to check it out. The restaurant was also open, but you needed to make reservations and the hotel itself doesn't open until mid November, I believe. The ribbon cutting was earlier in the day, so needless to say, this place is brand spankin' new!!! They did a great job cleaning up the place and adding little details that bring out the music theme. Still a lot of details like paint and crown molding that still needs finishing, but almost there! When you walk in the hotel entrance, there's a bar on the left and further down the restaurant. The only way up (at least for now) is the elevator, which was manned by a nice fellow who told us the wait was 15-20 minutes because the rooftop bar was already up to capacity. I'm gonna assume that this won't be a problem as time goes by. The rooftop section was a good size, above one wing of the hotel. The bar is surrounded by high chairs all around and there are little tables and couches along the edge. There was a small drink menu... cocktails $13, wines $9 and up, craft beer $7. They had local beer on tap...HOB, 7th Sun, Crooked Thumb, as they should! As of now, they do not sell food, but we spoke to some guy in the elevator who sounded like he knew what he was saying, who said that they were going to be creative with small "plates" he actually said maybe mason jar filled treats. Gourmet popcorn, maybe? (please take with a grain of salt, this was their first night and they're still trying to figure out what would be best). They even had issues with payment, so lots of kinks to work out. We came after sunset, but I know for sure that this is one of the best views around of St Joseph's sound. Actually, it's the only rooftop bar with a view in all of Dunedin!!! This place has been well awaited and we're excited to have another Dunedin gem for locals and visitors alike! read more

Gorgeous way to spend an evening at the Fenway. Great service and beautiful views! Drinks were delicious.
