LH Rooftop Review
Perched above the Chicago River with sweeping views of Michigan Avenue, LH Rooftop at LondonHouse Chicago delivers everything you want from a rooftop experience: stellar vistas, thoughtfully crafted drinks, and a lively yet relaxed atmosphere perfect for dates, celebrations, or an after-work unwind. From the moment I stepped into the space, the skyline felt like part of the décor — the river, bridges, and city lights frame the terrace in a way that instantly elevates even the simplest cocktail hour.

The rooftop is open daily from late morning until midnight, and the balance between daytime energy and evening glamour is handled beautifully — daytime visitors can enjoy a bright, airy vibe while nights bring twinkling lights and a convivial crowd. Food service runs until 11:00 PM, so whether you’re stopping by for a sunset snack or a late dinner, there’s flexibility to match your plans. (londonhousechicago.com)
Drinks are a clear highlight. The bar leans into hand-crafted cocktails made with premium spirits and fresh ingredients; bartenders clearly take pride in their creations, and there’s a pleasing mix of classics and inventive options that make ordering feel like part of the experience. Bar service hours are convenient for both lunch and evening gatherings, which makes LH Rooftop a reliable spot for everything from a casual meet-up to a celebratory night out.

For colder months, LondonHouse goes above and beyond with Rudolph’s Rooftop — private, heated igloos that offer a cozy, Instagram-worthy way to enjoy the skyline. The igloos are available seasonally and are designed for groups who want a semi-private dining experience with panoramic views; they come with a special sharing menu, which is ideal for gatherings. During my visit the igloo concept felt festive and practical — an inviting way to keep the rooftop alive in winter without sacrificing comfort. (londonhousechicago.com)
If you prefer an indoor setting, LH on 21 (the indoor bar and kitchen on the 21st floor) is a perfect complement. The menu is globally inspired with small plates and heartier entrees, making it easy to pair thoughtful bites with cocktails before or after taking in the rooftop panorama. The indoor space is stylish and comfortable — great for quieter conversations or for groups that want to start inside before moving up to the terrace. (londonhousechicago.com)
Practical details matter and LondonHouse nails them: valet parking is available, and the hotel’s central location at 85 East Wacker Drive puts you within easy walking distance of downtown attractions. The staff I encountered were professional and welcoming, adding to the sense that LH Rooftop is as much about hospitality as it is about the view. (londonhousechicago.com)
Overall, LH Rooftop is a top pick for anyone seeking a memorable rooftop outing in Chicago. Whether you’re sampling seasonal cocktails, booking an igloo for a group, or enjoying a leisurely rooftop brunch, it’s a spot where the city’s best elements — skyline, river, and great hospitality — come together. I’ll definitely be back.
