How to choose safely

What to check before choosing rooftop bars in Benin City

Rankings are a starting point. For this category, these are the checks that most often separate a useful recommendation from a risky one.

  • Check recency

    Restaurants change fast. Recent reviews and photos matter more than old popularity signals.

  • Match the occasion

    Confirm ambience, parking, reservation rules, family-friendliness, and menu availability before going.

  • Watch consistency

    Repeated comments about service speed, cleanliness, portions, and pricing are more useful than one viral review.

    • Sarah G. ★★★★★ We order four barbecue fish and they were all burnt on one side,they have really nice milkshake though
    • Okiemute I. ★★★★★ My experience at Confessions Lounge was honestly a mix of good and not so good. On the positive side, the ambience is beautiful. Warm lighting, nice décor, and a comfortable setting that makes you want to relax and enjoy your time. The food itself was also really good, and the staff member who attended to us was polite, patient, and handled our requests well. But my major issue was the waiting time. We had to wait 1 hour and 30 minutes before our food arrived. Another thing that didn’t sit well with me was being asked to move from the seat we originally picked because “a family of four might come in” and they felt the other seats might not be comfortable for them. We agreed and moved, only to find out later that it was unnecessary (we spent an extra 1 hour and 30 minutes there, and during that entire time, nobody sat in our original seat). Suggestion: It would help a lot if they had someone at the door whose job is to seat guests properly from the start. That would avoid situations like that awkward, unnecessary, and slightly embarrassing relocation.

    • Sharon U. ★★★★ Nice place. The staff were professional and friendly. They prepare your food fresh from scratch but the wait wasn't long. We sat and ate at Milk & honey for a while but later went down to the outdoor bar. A bottle of beer upstairs is 2x the price of the ones in the outdoor bar.

    • A.A E. ★★★★★ I visited in the daytime when it was empty. There was no menu provided when asked. I ordered a Strawberry fruit smoothie and instead of receiving a purely fruit smoothie there was 'Holandia milk' added. I don't drink milk. The staff member was well meaning, but I don't understand how a restaurant doesn't have a common menu. Atleast to check for allergies! You are unable to return the product once ordered and I later learned it's because the amount of the discarded order gets docked from the staff member's salary. I was planning to go there on Sunday and so glad I had this experience so I don't go back again and waste any money. I'm sure their other food and drinks are nice but I haven't experienced those yet.

    • Okiemute I. ★★★★★ I had a fun experience at New 22 Lounge. I’m not sure if it was because we arrived at night, but we weren’t able to get food, which was a bit disappointing. However, the customer service made up for it . The staff were polite, responsive, and did their best to attend to everyone despite the crowd. The hype men and DJ kept the place lively throughout the night. The atmosphere was energetic, and you can tell it’s a popular hangout spot because it gets pretty packed after dark. The downside to this is that moving around becomes a bit of a chore, especially with the limited seating arrangement. I think some improvements could be made in organizing the seating, although I understand people tend to move chairs and tables around. The parking situation could also be better. The car park in front of the building is quite small, and the rest of the parking ends up being more “street-style,” which may not feel as secure as guests would prefer. Still, the lighting and overall ambience of the lounge are really nice, and the bathrooms were clean, which I appreciated. Hey! Did my review help you? Leave a like❤️
    • Oghenekevwe O. ★★★★ Serene environment. The love band nailed it. In all I enjoyed myself

    • Odeh N. ★★★★ If you like good food and good customer service DO NOT GO HERE. I made a reservation at 11am and paid 50,000naira to hold this reservation. I informed the restaurant that my husband doesn’t eat spicy food and ordered for “Jollof spaghetti” not spicy. I got to the restaurant and waited over 1 hour to get my food ( even though a reservation was made) to crown it all, my husband’s food was so spicy he couldn’t even eat it. We had to leave. They think they sell class but it’s trash. Very disappointed.
    • Victory W. ★★★★ Easily the best fine dining experience I’ve had in Benin city. Expensive, but worth it. The service was impeccable and the waiters were really attentive. The food took a bit long to come in, but I think the general ambience made up for that. Absolutely recommend.
