We reserved an igloo, very cute inside but that was about where the positive experience ended sadly. We arrived for our 7pm reservations and it took 15 minutes to be seen by a waitress. Waitress was not attentive despite what seemed to be a lot of table runners. The igloo dripped water on the inside, no one showed us how to work the lights or the speaker inside. The bar food was mediocre at best. $85 min per person but we were told we were way under despite having met the required amount so purchased wine bottles to go. We were rushed out of the igloo in advance of our two hour reservation, even after we mentioned that we were not even able to order until 7:15. Very disappointed in the experience.

We visited Kennedy Rooftop for my friend's 30th birthday, and it was an amazing experience. From the manager to every staff member, everyone was incredibly kind, attentive, and welcoming. We stayed in the igloos — they were warm, cozy, and created such a comfortable atmosphere. When we stepped out of the igloo, the downtown view was absolutely beautiful. Overall, we had a wonderful time and would definitely come back! Highly recommend!

I had such a great experience dining in one of the heated igloos at Kennedy Rooftop. The igloo was warm, cozy, and the skyline views made it the perfect winter night out. We ordered the Sliders, Buffalo Chicken Dip, and the Mushroom Pesto Flatbread with smoked gouda, pesto, and truffle oil. The service was so friendly and attentive throughout, and there is even a speaker in the igloos you can connect to! Overall, a really fun and festive winter dining experience in Chicago for a date or a group outing. I’d definitely come back and recommend it to anyone looking for a cozy seasonal spot with great views.

We had a lovely time with the girls. I originally booked incorrectly and when I reached to correct the Manager Vola? Was able to correct it without issues. Will be back soon for the rooftop experience

The Kennedy Rooftop absolutely exceeded my expectations! The views of the skyline are unreal. Seriously one of the best rooftop vibes in the city. The space feels modern, fun, and super inviting, and the staff were so friendly and attentive the entire time!
The drinks were great, the food came out quick, and the whole atmosphere made it the perfect spot for a night out with friends. If you’re looking for a rooftop that has amazing energy and stunning views, the Kennedy Rooftop is definitely the move. Highly recommend!

Our server was horrible. She's got bald hair and tattoos. She was mocking us, making snarky comments. Got the manger involved. Drinks on them lol and nachos were disgusting they removed them from the bill thankfully. Will never be back

Once seated we waited 15 Minutes for server and another 10 minutes for water. Server did her best but she was all over place. There was a high school event that staff was mainly attending too. Which kept other guest from going outside which was purpose of our visit. Event goers were suppose to be done at 6:30. But didn't leave until after 8pm!
Kennedy Rooftop on the 7th floor of the Hyatt in Wicker Park is an absolute gem! The views of the Chicago skyline are stunning and create the perfect backdrop for a night out. The cocktails were delicious, and the vibe was just right. It was lively but still comfortable. I had good service from my waitress, Fernanda, who was attentive, and friendly. If you’re looking for great drinks, a great atmosphere, and some of the best rooftop views in the city, Kennedy Rooftop is a must-visit! A plus that’s it’s located in the hotel and free and convenient parking nearby on the street.

We had a questionable issue with my dish. When the manager came over it was more of a confrontation vs customer service. It got sorted out however unpleasant and we had to contest the final bill because it reflected the gratuity & tax inclusion of the removed dish.

The rooftop has the best views!!! Such a good spot to take a visitor. The drinks and food were all great and it’s a really good brunch spot
