  If you are not a drinker or handicapped I'd pass on this venue. Boozy vibe with good music otherwise. The view is nice, but make a reservation if you want a piece of it. Even at 2 in the afternoon on a Saturday it was packed. Wasn't overwhelmed by the food menu.

  This is not a negative review for The Rooftop Bar, but a descriptive review of once in a time of when odds happen. I came to The Rooftop Bar after 9pm and they had a wedding scheduled the next day. The Rooftop Bar's view is great from the top floor out looking the ocean. The had a glass cover over the pool due to a private reserved party the next day, so they had a glass cover which looked very cool. Heres the odds, we ordered a Banana Brulee, unfortunately they were all sold out the Bananas liquor, so we ordered a Cloud 9 and Midnight cold brew. Here's the odds again. We were served 2 Cloud 9s. We also ordered the Smores desert cake, not sure on the exact name of it. Here's another odds... since I had to wait for the correct drink to go with my desert, the gram crackers were very soggy. But overall the experience was great. The service seemed very busy at first, but genuinely a very nice and welcoming staff. I would go back again.

  Views are rhe only exceptional thing. Drinks were horrible. Apetizers okay. Service marginal ( ar best) Music is bothersomely loud making any conversation impossible, unless you want the entire place to hear it. Left early since the entire ambiance became hostile somehow...

  Beautiful views, but a terrible happy hour value. While the ocean view from The Rooftop Bar is nice, their happy hour is a complete disappointment. The drinks are heavily overpriced for the quality provided. The food options on the happy hour menu are practically missing, and the portion sizes are microscopic. They rely strictly on their location to attract people instead of putting effort into providing a high quality happy hour menu. There are much better, higher-quality happy hour experiences elsewhere in Oceanside. There was no uniformity behind the bar. Regular Street clothed employees were behind the bar doing odd bar work. Even the bar help should be dressed appropriately and uniformly. And then to top it all off if you do go here expect to receive an unknown service charge on your bill. Personally I would not have tipped so much if they were charging a vague service fee
