Overview
Floral-themed and insta-worthy rooftop cocktail bar in the popular 5th Street District.
Perched on top of the Binaco Tower in Uptown Charlotte, Novelty House Rooftop is a modern and beautiful rooftop bar, taking the energy of the 5th Street District vertical.
The bright and open-air terrace is decked out with flowers and more flowers, both on the walls (including one extra Instagram-friendly with a 'Wish You Were Here' sign) and above, offering a bit of shade. With views on all four sides of the tower, here you can look out over the skyscrapers, as well as Uptown's largest mural by local artist Alex Duncan.
A perfect venue for elevated after-works, Novelty House Rooftop serves crafted cocktails, assorted champagnes, local beers, seltzers and other refreshing drinks. Try the signature 'Higher Love', a watermelon Red Bull-infused Mojito, or share a bottle of bubbles with friends.
The rooftop fun usually continues well into the night, most evenings with live DJs raising the atmosphere even more.
Primarily a rooftop cocktail bar and not a restaurant, Novelty House does not serve a food menu. But, during private events and the occasional weekend brunches, nearby restaurants and catering partners will be used. Speaking of private events, the rooftop is a fantastic spot to rent for a birthday party or similar, but during regular hours the rooftop works on a first-come, first-served basis.
Tip: One floor below Novelty House Rooftop you find Havana Smoke and Reserve, an upscale cigar social club with a full bar, and also small patio overlooking Uptown.
