One Croatian bar has been named on the official list of the ‘Best Rooftop Bars in Europe 2022’ released by international travel site Big 7 Travel.

Taking into account online reviews from Google, Tripadvisor and previous media coverage, as well as input from their editorial team on factors including rooftop views, design and drinks list, Big 7 reveal the hottest places to sip in style this summer. 

Included on the list at no. 34 is Buža Bar in Dubrovnik. 

“This is a rooftop bar taken to the next level: a bar on a cliff! Buža Bar lies just outside Dubrovnik’s city walls and because of its popularity, you’ll often find many tourists here.The best time to come here is right before sunset. Enjoy a drink of your choice as you watch the beautiful sunset at Buža Bar,” writes Big 7 Travel.

Coming in at no.1 on the list was the Salling Rooftop and Roofgarden in Aarhus, Denmark. 

“Copenhagen gets all the attention when it comes to sparkling city views, but this spectacular rooftop bar in Aarhus is giving it a run for its money. Part rooftop bar, part conservatory, this breathtaking rooftop space is the perfect place to kick back with a cocktail (or a few). Time your visit right and you can enjoy the live DJ set every Friday night too.

There’s also a glass sky platform 25 metres above the high street and a network of walkways, platforms, art and installations and the Salling Roofgarden. Plus, all that vegetation is contributing to Aarhus’ green transition,” Big 7 said. 

The ROOF at the Reykjavik Edition in Iceland, Kranen Bar in Oslo, Norway, Oroya in Madrid, Spain and The Culpeper in London made the top five.
