360 Rooftop Bar

Should You Book 360 Rooftop Bar?

If you're choosing between rooftop bars in St. Louis, 360 Rooftop Bar at One S Broadway holds a positional advantage most competitors can't match: it sits atop the Hilton St. Louis at the Ballpark, putting you at eye level with the Gateway Arch and Busch Stadium in a single sightline. That view is the product, and for many visitors, it justifies the trip on its own terms. The question is whether the full experience — drinks, service, atmosphere — holds up alongside the scenery.

The Space

The bar occupies a dedicated rooftop level, meaning you're not sharing floor space with a hotel lobby or restaurant overflow. The layout is open-plan with indoor and outdoor sections, and the scale skews large rather than intimate , this isn't a 12-seat perch where you linger for hours. It works well for groups who want a shared wow-moment rather than couples seeking a quiet corner. If a private, low-key setting is your priority, the room format will push back against that.

Value Per Round

Specific drink prices aren't published, but rooftop bars at downtown Hilton properties in comparable Midwestern cities typically run $14–$20 per cocktail. That's a premium over street-level bars in St. Louis, where you can drink well for under $12 a round at spots like 2nd Shift Brewing or 4 Hands Brewing Company. Whether that premium is justified depends entirely on how much the view and setting matter to you. For out-of-town visitors who want to orient themselves to the city, the price-per-round makes more sense. For locals seeking the leading cocktail value, there are sharper options below street level.

The bar has evolved in recent years alongside downtown St. Louis's broader hospitality push, with increased competition from newer rooftop and refined venues across the metro. That context matters: 360 is no longer the only refined option in the city, so the view premium needs to earn its keep more than it once did.

How It Compares

For rooftop and refined bar experiences in St. Louis, 360 competes primarily on view rather than drink quality or value. If the Arch sightline is your reason for going, it delivers. If you're after a craft program or a more neighborhood-rooted feel, look elsewhere in the city's bar scene.

For cocktail craft at a similar or lower price point, Jewel of the South in New Orleans, Bar Leather Apron in Honolulu, and Julep in Houston represent what a serious cocktail bar can do when the program, not the panorama, is the priority.
