Sky By The Water

If the skies above Birmingham have ever looked a little more luminous, it's probably because Sky By The Water is casting its own celestial glow on the city's social scene. Perched atop one of Birmingham's premier destinations, this cocktail bar and restaurant is as much a feast for the eyes as it is for the palate. The venue serves as an oasis of luxury and tranquility, combining panoramic views with artisan cocktails and culinary artistry.

A Dazzling Space Above The Clouds

Step out of the elevator, and you'll be greeted with an immediate sense of elevation—not just in altitude but in ambiance. The bar’s floor-to-ceiling glass walls allow an unobstructed panorama of the sprawling cityscape below, which becomes especially magical during twilight hours. The space itself is awash in soft, muted tones, illuminated by chandeliers that seem to float like tiny galaxies above you. Pops of green from strategically placed plants contrast with the natural wood and marble finishes, adding an organic touch to the modern design.

The Drink Menu: A Constellation of Flavors

Sky By The Water takes its cocktails seriously, curating a selection that appeals to both the traditionalist and the adventurer. Their talented mixologists pay homage to classic cocktails while incorporating imaginative twists that elevate the experience to new heights. A particular favorite is the "Elevated Elixir," which marries gin, elderflower liqueur, and Champagne with a hint of citrus. It’s the epitome of refreshing sophistication. Seasonal ingredients play a significant role, and you may find your favorite cocktails reinterpreted with an infusion of fresh fruits, herbs, or spices depending on the time of year. Attention to detail is evident not only in the carefully balanced flavors but also in the meticulous presentation. Each drink arrives as if it were a miniature masterpiece, sometimes adorned with edible flowers or a sprig of herbs.

Culinary Pairings: A Match Made in Heaven

The food menu is far from an afterthought and perfectly complements the cocktail offerings. Here you can find an assortment of expertly curated small plates, sharing platters, and desserts. Local produce shines in each dish, whether it's a plate of fresh oysters or a velvety panna cotta. Their famous sharing platters are perfect for groups looking to experience a medley of flavors while enjoying their cocktails.

Social, Yet Intimate

The atmosphere is relaxed yet sophisticated, creating an ideal setting for a variety of occasions. Whether it's a romantic date night, a casual get-together with friends, or a corporate event, Sky By The Water caters to every need. The staff is attentive and personable, adding to the overall exceptional experience.

Special Events: Nights to Remember

Sky By The Water also hosts various events throughout the year, from live music performances to cocktail masterclasses led by their in-house mixologists. These events often sell out quickly, solidifying the bar’s status as a sought-after venue for those looking for an experience beyond the ordinary.

Elevating Birmingham’s Cocktail Experience to New Heights

Sky By The Water is not just a bar; it’s a sanctuary where the art of mixology reaches celestial levels, and every sip feels like a moment suspended in time.
