The Place

The Place

Pier Top occupies the 17th floor of a Harbor Beach tower in Fort Lauderdale, and the floor itself rotates — one full loop delivers unobstructed views of the skyline, the waterways, and the Atlantic horizon without leaving your seat. The bar opens at 5 p.m. Thursday through Sunday, closing at midnight on Thursday, 2 a.m. on Friday and Saturday, and 10 p.m. on Sunday. Valet parking is available, and the rooftop is reached by elevator.

The crowd skews toward date-night pairs, special-occasion groups, and anyone willing to meet the dress code. Signature pours include an Espresso Martini and the Dirty Oysters — a drink finished with caviar and gold flake — which signal the general price point and ambition of the menu.

The dress code is the one thing to sort out before you arrive. Women must wear stylish pants, dresses, or skirts. Men must wear long pants and closed-toe shoes; dress shorts are permitted on Sundays only, and jackets are encouraged. Entry is 21 and over without exception.
