We went to Loft last night for the first time since April 2025 and honestly we were shocked at how much better the whole vibe was. The staff were way more friendly and actually paying attention, and my friends and I all noticed it as soon as we walked in. Also, huge shoutout to one of the bouncers, Logan. I slipped coming down the stairs in my heels and was literally about to faceplant, and he caught me so fast. I wasn’t expecting a bouncer to be that sweet… or that cute, honestly. He made sure I was okay and didn’t make me feel embarrassed at all. We ended up having such a good night and we’re definitely coming back more often after this. 💕
I am rating this bar a 5 simply because of the amazing service we received from Rinada. She was kind and helpful and made the BEST lemon drop I had in my life!!! Honorable mention is Robin with the stache and lushes locks, come for the lemon drops and lushes locks 🫶🏼
Loft Bar & Bistro is outstanding! Delicious food, great cocktails, and a vibrant atmosphere. The rooftop seating and friendly service make every visit special. Highly recommend! 🍸🍽️🌆
There was no wait on a Saturday at 6 pm. The staff was friendly and attentive. Quality of the food wasn't outstanding, but the service more than made up for it. It's a great place to get friends together and share small plates. They turn the restaurant into more of a nightclub after 10:30.
We were lucky to get a table as this place had three private parties going on. We managed to eat in the outdoor tent area which was cooler than inside but still ok. We each ordered appetizer size food and was a perfect amount for the not so hungry. Prawns were cooked perfectly and paired well with the mixed greens. Our waitress, Nicole, wasn’t so great. She poured a taste of wine and left the table with our bottle for all of us to pour ourselves. She was not attentive and seemed very quick to try and run away from us. We will be back for the food and hope we don’t sit in her section.
Renata and Robin gave us the best lemon drops i’ve ever had! incredibly talented and such great service! WE HAD THE BEST TIME!!
What an absolute nightmare. We had our 30 year high-school reunion tonight. After we had a great night I called out a dangerous individual innthe restroom and ended up face down with a choke hold from a security guard for no reason.
