    Beautiful space, great drink, and great views! Location and Parking Located in Midtown, Parking is located in the underground deck immediately below the restaurant. They validate for 3 hours. When you exit the deck, exit the side where Rumi's Kitchen is. If you exit the other side, you will need to walk all the way around the building for access to 5 Church and Virtue (ask me how I know lol). Venue and Atmosphere When I visited, Virtue was decked out for Christmas. There were plenty of lights, trees, and poinsettias overlooking Midtown. Outdoors, they had comfy furniture and fire pits roaring with plenty of heat. There are two bars so the space never gets crowded with revelers waiting on a drink. Service Service was prompt, courteous, and efficient. Food and Beverages I had two drinks: the signature drink, Holy Water, and the Rum Punch. Both were strong yet flavorful. To be honest,I wasn't a huge fan of the food. The chicken and beef sliders were good, and the crab dip was also delicious. The sushi tots and coconut shrimp lacked flavor. Because the food wasn't consistent, I took off a star. Verdict I'll definitely visit again in the spring, so I can fully enjoy the outside with warm weather.

    Full Disclosure: This review is only about the drinks. I have not tried the food at the establishment. Ambiance/Vibe - Is REALLY cute in here. On Fridays (and I think Saturdays), there is a DJ that makes this prefect for gathering with friends, a date, or just to go grab a drink. I love that the inside opens up to the outside with accordion style doors. The "rooftop" is cute as well. I only put it in words because in my mind, a rooftop is at, or very near the top of a building. This is essentially on the 2nd floor. So, in my mind, it's more of a terrace top... but you do have a cute view of the surrounding area. Pretty good seating (the seating indoors is very nice, patio seating is nice but feel like it could be a little better - it just doesn't seem as nice as inside), and of course, it wouldn't be #Atlanta without a #GrassWall! The wall lends itself to great photo opps. 4/5 Service - The service was good, and the waitress was attentive, but I think overall could've benefited from 1 or 2 additional wait staff. We got our drinks in a timely manner, but when we had some additional people join us, it had gotten busier around that time and took a bit longer for the waiter to get neck to our table. 4/5 Food - n/a Drinks - I ordered the Naked Belle and a beer. My friend ordered the Peachtree... something. We enjoyed our drinks but we reeeeeeeeally enjoyed the Naked Belle. That lime foam on the top is just.... ugh! . 5/5 Final Verdict - Lord Wellington Approved. This spot is located in/above 5Church, so don't look for a sign that says "Virtue." It's perfect as either a starting point for your evening, the main event, or a night cap. They automatically add gratuity to each check. And be aware that while they do validate parking, their security guard handles it, so if they are not around, you're not getting your parking validated. So #ProTip, get your parking validated when you arrive (if security is there). 4/5

    Maybe we can on a wrong night, we were visiting from NY and this place had decent reviews so decided to check it out. We ordered a couple margaritas and the bill came with automatic 25% gratuity which is pretty high considering we only had a party of 2. The DJ playing music was not good music was excessively loud and didn't seem to have control of the crowd. People were not enjoying themselves

    Hand Cut French Fries

    A few weeks ago, I visited Virtue's Rooftop holiday pop-up bar. Seating for the pop-up bar is first come, first serve. Luckily, we were able to find a seat on the couch under the covered portion of the rooftop. Our server was super nice and helpful. We had dinner reservations at Saints + Council, so we just stopped by for a few cocktails and a small bite before our dinner reservation. The rooftop was completely transformed with holiday decor. The menu had a good variety of holiday cocktails and treats. We opted for the Christmas mule and gingerbread old fashion. I also ordered a side of hand cut French fries. The cocktails were tasty and the French fries were hot//fresh. Everything is a bit pricey and there is an automatic 20% gratuity on all bills; however, we enjoyed our experience at the holiday pop-up bar.

    we came here for the valentine's day pop up to celebrate a friend's birthday, and it was super cute! the menu prices were a little steep and the food wasn't remarkable, but the drinks were yummy and gave a little buzz. our servers were really sweet women and helped us take photos on the balcony after! would recommend this place for a cute date night or girls' night for yaps & drinks.

    Egress cocktail
    Danielle S.

    This was a cute place to have a drink with friends! We were there at 5:45 on a Saturday night, and it was not crowded, but more people were coming in as we left. The space is nice and chill (until they started turning up the music for some odd reason), and the waitress was kind and helpful. A couple of us ordered the Egress cocktail, which was beautiful. It was pink with a tiny edible flower on top. It is a vodka cocktail, but reminded me more of a gin cocktail since it was a bit herbal. It was also way sweeter than I expected, so go for this one if you like really sweet drinks. The chairs are nice and cushy, and the place feels intimate. Good for conversation!

    Love a rooftop bar and love people watching and this cute little spot is perfect for that. Stopped by here for a drink after dinner and would come back for sure.

    The ambiance was 5/5. The views are lovely, the live music was a blast, and the fire pits are a nice touch. However, this place is ran like it's a club with the amounts they're charging. For example, an espresso martini they charged $12 for the shot of liquor and then $8 for espresso. Definitely felt like a scam. I was also served a drink with a lipstick stain on the glass. It can be hard to order a drink even when it's not ~that busy~ compared to how a rooftop place on a Friday night can get in a place like Miami. Would recommend as a stop in but wouldn't stay for more than a drink or two.

    Lamb burger sliders and beekeper cocktail
    Mariam C.

    I visited Virture Rooftop yesterday with a friend and we really enjoyed our experience. The music was great the photo opps were abundant, and I just loved the decor. We both had the lamb burger sliders that were flavorful and delicious. Our server was very helpful and made sure we were completely satisfied with everything ordered. I originally ordered the Beekeeper cocktail but it was a little too spirit forward for me and our server was kind enough to get me something I'd like better. My friend and I both ended up having a peach cocktail that we loved! I can't wait to come back.

I sat at the bar and had a little light banter with the bartender who is a brother looking to be in his late 30's-early 40's. When I asked about two fruity cocktails from the menu, he flat-out said he wasn't going to make them. That alone was off-putting. Trying to move forward, I asked what he specialized in, and he said he'd "come up with something." I agreed--but very clearly stated: no rum, because my body does not react well to it. After watching him make drinks for people who ordered after me, he eventually handed me a cocktail I never even saw him prepare. That already raised a flag. I took a few sips, and sure enough--my stomach immediately started reacting the exact way it does when I've had rum. When I asked what alcohol he used, he said, "I don't even know." That response alone tells you everything you need to know. At that point, I reminded him I specifically said no rum. Instead of taking accountability, he tried to argue and backtrack. Let me be clear--when a customer tells you not to use a specific liquor, you don't ignore it, guess, or "forget." That's basic service and basic respect. This situation completely threw off my evening, as I had plans afterward and ended up feeling sick. To make matters worse, I reached out to management and received no response. That lack of accountability speaks volumes. At the end of the day, this wasn't just a bad drink--it was careless service. This staff does not prioritize customer care, and that's a problem. If you choose to visit, be very direct, pay close attention, and don't assume your requests will be respected.

Rather than just finding out, he went ahead and made it and brought it out with the group's drinks. When I saw how good it looked, I decided to order one too. The presentation of the drink was very nice and it had a good creamy flavor to it. This drink was a nice way to wind down the evening. As someone from TX, I did think the drinks were a bit on the pricey side but it's not surprising with it being the ritz. I liked that the bar had a fun yet casual ambiance and there were plenty of people around. We did ask what time last call was and were told midnight so we didn't hurry to order a second drink. Unfortunately, when we ordered another at 10:40... we were told they had closed which was frustrating.

They hold a jazz night every Tuesday with live music for a nice chill, yet fun, vibe. Just a warning, the space inside is pretty small--typically there's optional seating outside, but it's really chilly at the moment (although they have heaters)--but there's more seating downstairs in The Victorian Atlanta plant shop. I didn't realize that the two were connected! FYI, if you sit downstairs, you'll be seated next to where the live music performers will be playing, so it will be louder there. As for the drinks, I tried the Zombie. I loved it so much, I ordered a second one instead of trying a different one! It tasted sweet and slightly tropical with the rum and spiced liqueur. It also had some absinthe, which I was worried about when I first ordered it since I hate the taste of it (not a big fan of black licorice flavors), but I didn't taste it at all! Overall, this place had such a great vibe to it!
