Top of the Gate DC is an energetic and sophisticated Washington DC roof bar, perched on top of the superb Watergate Hotel Georgetown, located along the banks of the Potomac River. Given the location, the rooftop is also known as the Watergate Rooftop Bar.
From the 15th floor terrace you get spectacular 360-degree views over the Potomac River, Key Kennedy Center, Washington Monument, Arlington bridges and the rest of the DC skyline. You can even wave to Virgina.
Luxurious and modern in decoration, with a large bar counter and lounge areas with fire pits, this is an ideal place for some vibrant and fun after-work cocktails with your colleagues and friends. The rooftop can also be reserved for private and special events.
From the rooftop bar you can order delicious and handcrafted seasonal cocktails, choose from a fine of wines, or try some of the smaller bites, including gourmet pizzas, tapas and shared plates.
At the moment, Top of the Gate is only open during the warmer season, and it is a great spot for sunny cocktails with fantastic views, as well as fun happenings, from rooftop yoga to live events.
