Reservation booked (3 weeks out) for 2 at 5:45pm. Had to wait in a line to get the lift up to the rooftop. I think there should be a separate line for diners with a reservation. First thing you notice as you exit the lift is the noise!! It is very loud, music and general acoustics (I'm not being old)! Although saying that we were definitely older than most. General age group in the 20s. We were seated at a reserved table (which seated 4). Our waitress, Harmony, was terrific, a breath of fresh air. Bar bites menu small but really good food. Great recommendations from Harmony. Ordered the guacamole with warm tortilla chips, which had a lovely seasoning and were served in a brown paper bag. Next Barbacoa taco, truly delicious, packed with meat and so flavorful. Finally a Diavola pizza, salami, pepperoni and mozzarella cheese with a gluten free crust, which was crispy and cheesy. Took a while for the pizza to come out but worth the wait. Good selection of cocktails, ordered Kiss from a Rose, Moet Chandon Rose, lemon and pomegranate. Prices are reasonable. Book well in advance if you to be guaranteed a table. It was so windy that the huge glass windows were closed, which I'm sure helped elevate the noise level. Will definitely go back if I can get another reservation sometime soon. read more

This place is such a cute & hip addition to the Short North. I came here on a Saturday afternoon and it was really fun. There wasn't a wait for us to go up (but when we were leaving there was a pretty long line). They had music playing but it wasn't too loud where you can't hear yourself. Very cute decor and furniture. Almost everyone there was dressed super cute. We were able to snag two chairs around the fire pit and a waiter came over promptly to take our drink orders. It did take a little bit for the drinks to arrive but it was busy so it's understandable. Overall it was a really fun atmosphere and great drinks! I would love to go at night too! read more

Absolutely stunning views that you can't beat in all of Columbus. The line seemed long at first but we got there with a party of 6 around 7:00pm and made it to the elevator within about 25 minutes. The drinks are a bit pricey but overall worth it! read more

Yes, this place is beautiful and yes the drinks aren't cheap and no there isn't happy hour. BUT you feel so alive and rich in this beautiful, LA style rooftop lounge. The food and drinks are awesome. Arrive early because seating is at a premium. Great girls night out venue! Swanky seating and flower walls with awesome people watching....all from Columbus, Ohio. read more

This place is beautiful! The views of the city are great and the decor in the bar is great! We went on a Saturday night and I will say it was very busy; as expected! The bar is not large but has a good ambiance. The drinks a little pricy and the service was slow but this is a good place to visit if you are in Columbus. read more

The food was decent. The quick service was very much appreciated. But it was incredibly loud and there was limited seating.

One of my new favorite places in Columbus! Must visit for a fun trendy rooftop experience! Went with family before a concert and we Enjoyed drinks & small app! Atmosphere was light and the open rooftop was beautiful on a sunny day! read more

The restaurant wasn't very busy( we are a party of 4) , we were seated at a table that was filthy. Waited 10 minutes for anyone to come and wait on us. When the waitress came to the table we asked her to wiped it down. She gave a big sigh and wiped all the food crumbs into our laps. Then 2 men started arguing at the bar. We left. Seems as if there is no management and the place was out of control. read more

Love this place! Great staff and service. Dislike new uniform rule. Their own unique styles have always been apart of making this place vibing! Don't get the music change. Before it had a very organic feel and flow to it. Please bring it all back! read more

The view. This place has amazing craft cocktails and a fantastic view. I love how adorable it is. Well decorated and makes Columbus feel like a bigger city than it is. Gender neutral bathrooms are a major plus. Very cute bartenders. Also some of the most diverse crowds I've ever seen. This place is a hip and happening location for Columbus. read more

Lovely view. Food and drinks are overrated and overpriced. If you go with a good group, it can be enjoyable. I did enjoy their staff, but I'm not sure it's worth all the hype. I think I'd like to go back again when it's still daylight and see what the vibe is like. read more

Very cool spot with a great decor. Wonderful views of downtown and high street. Drinks were good but the view was better. Did not try the food but it looked like typical Cameron quality. Worth stopping for a drink and view if you are in the short north. Lines can get long if you are there during prime hours. read more

The only reason why I am not giving this establishment a 1 star review is because the food and drinks were actually good. My friends and I wanted to go out to somewhere nice for an evening so we chose Lincoln Social. It was a really fun night. We all got some food and drinks and chatted for a while. When it came time to pay our bills, they all looked fine. Everyone's bills were accurate. So we all gave the server our cards to pay. When the server came back with our cards, I noticed that the server used my card to pay for my friend's bill that was significantly more expensive than mine. We told the server this, but he seemed to be in a rush to leave, so he advised me that he will have it fixed since the bills were correct, payment methods were just not correct for each individual bill. He seemed nice and trustworthy so I trusted that. The next day I noticed that the charges were not fixed when I looked at my credit card charges. I called Lincoln Social and explained what happened and whoever I spoke to was very rude - asking me the exact names of drinks that I ordered, ect. Point is, your employee charged me for a bill that was not mine. He had already swiped my card for a bill that I did not agree too. And went further to tell me he would fix it, and it was not fixed. Since Lincoln Social was not willing to dispute, I went through my credit card company who is still going back and forth with Lincoln Social to this day trying to get this disputed. I am not one to be petty about things like this but this is terrible customer service. Let me remind you this was back in December - January, and it is now April. I will never go back or support this business. I have worked in the service industry for years, and if a customer complains about something like this, they are always listened to. This is totally uncalled for. read more

Awesome decor (obviously very instagram-able) The view is pretty amazing given there are just a handful of rooftops here. I don't drink but my friends said the drinks were good, not great. The wait on a weekend is horrendous though. We waited an hour to get to the top. read more

Super excited to try this new spot. Let's start with downtown parking. Other than the construction going on, there are plenty of meters and a nearby parking garage. I absolutely love the entrance to this spot. The floral wall makes for great selfies or photos. I went on a Thursday evening, it was gloomy out and lightly raining. However it was fairly busy. I thought it took a while for bartender to notice me although I was making eye contact and standing at the bar w/ no food or drink. I tried a few things on the drink and food menu. The rose drink was my favorite as it was one of the few sweeter drinks. Sweet drinks are my thing. The sliders were delicious and juicy. However they did need some more seasoning. My fabulous was the birthday cake pop. I couldn't tell you how many of those babies I ate. Prices seemed fair. The decor inside was beautiful. I can't wait to go back in warmer weather and enjoy a evening w/ my girls. Definitely recommend this spot. read more

I went to Lincoln Social on a Saturday around 2 pm (just an hour after they opened) with a couple of people for drinks. Luckily, a line had not formed yet, but it was pretty busy already. We were able to find seating that was not reserved, but they also have tables that are reserved as well. Beautiful views coupled with amazing weather really made it a pleasant experience! The service was impeccable - our server came to us several times making sure we are taken care of. Hands down the best rooftop yet in Columbus! Lincoln Social has a real NYC/Chicago rooftop vibe which I absolutely loved. I would recommend getting there near to the time it opens since it is such a happening spot! You won't regret your visit! read more

Excellent customer service right at the entrance. The service was excellent in getting drinks at a timely manner and friendly servers. The environment is beautiful with the lights as well! read more

We finally got into Lincoln Social on a Sunday afternoon. It happened to be a lovely, clear, sunny day - rare for February. We had lunch nearby and thought it would be nice to stop in for a drink. The view is lovely, the bar is really nice, the staff was attentive - but honestly what ruined it for us was the music. It was a Sunday afternoon - 2:30 in the afternoon and they were BLASTING pounding rap music. Really? We could barely hear one another - we were literally shouting at each other to be heard. I get having that kind of music for the night crowd when its a club atmosphere. But on a lovely afternoon. Very disappointed in what could have been a relaxing break in our day. read more

The name Cameron Mitchel stands for something - at most of his restaurants, but not Lincoln Social. The bartenders are inattentive. That's it. Oh, and it's Barcelona on a budget. Everything else is great. read more

Always a great relaxing place to enjoy the views of the Short North and Downtown from this fun rooftop bar. Also the appetizers are pretty amazing. Try the shrimp taquerias and pineapple smash cocktail. read more

One of the best views in Columbus paired with great drinks and amazing decor!! I would definitely recommend making this a stop to start your happy hour ventures in Short North.

This place is HIP! I went with my husband for a birthday party and we had a great time. The rooftop was beautifully decorated- very trendy. The food was great, too. However, they really only serve light bites so if you're really hungry, you'll want to order a bunch of them or eat before you come. The cocktails were amazing. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars is because it's super crowded. read more

So, I've been here a few times with my most recent visit during the pandemic. I can say that they are taking this thing very seriously and care about keeping everyone safe. With that being said, Lincoln Social is gorgeous. The ambiance gives you the feel of being on a mini getaway. Having a drink next to the fire pit, overlooking our beautiful city on a summer night is my favorite! Some things to remember- the drinks are special but you are paying for presentation. (Obviously great for photo ops) . They don't have a full menu but offer tapas. VERY SMALL bites but tasty and good for balancing the alcohol. The Social pizza (I think that's what it's called) was actually the best thing I've had to eat there. Besides that, the guacamole is ok. Pictured is what was supposed to be a Cucumber gimlet. As you see, it's beautiful but definitely wasn't a cucumber gimlet. The bartender was really sweet tho so I didn't complain. Plus, the music was great, the bathrooms were clean and I was living life so this place delivered! read more

I came here for NYE, I knew nothing about this place before hand. I really enjoyed the time I spent at Lincoln. Ambiance was great, music was great. Their sushi was some of the best I've ever had. I wouldn't order the Scallop Stix again due to lack of value, but all the food was great. It was a busy night, service wasn't lacking. I would definitely revisit this restaurant / bar if I'm back in the area. read more

Great atmosphere, really great cocktail selection, and staff was friendly. I definitely recommend stopping here when in Columbus!

The female bartender was very rude on Saturday, April 9th. Made it feel like we shouldn't be there and that asking for a drink was a task. I usually come here at least once a weekend but will not be returning. read more

The female bartender on Saturday 4/9 around 3:30 was absolutely so rude and unprofessional. Ordering from her seemed like a task and she was talking about our group right in front of us to another costumer. So unprofessional will not be back due to how she treated us and various customers around us. Not recommended unless you want to be treated poorly. read more
