Fiat Lux

Overview

Elegant rooftop cocktail bar with sweeping views of Charleston's peninsula.

Set on the 9th floor of the amazing Hotel Bennett Charleston, Fiat Lux is one of the more refined rooftops to enjoy the city from above.

With a prime location in the heart of Charleston, the rooftop bar follows the elegant aesthetic of the hotel, especially at the sleek interior lounge. The adjacent outdoor terrace is a bit more casual, and the prime feature here are the views: sweeping panoramics over the Charleston skyline, including St Matthews Lutheran Church and Marion Square below.

From the rooftop bar, you can enjoy a palyful selection of specialty seasonal cocktails, an expansive spirit selection, locally-brewed beers and a fine array of wines. There is also a Chef's selection of bites, including Duck Fat Fries and a Cheese & Charcuterie board.

Usually open from around mid day to midnight, Fiat Lux rooftop bar comes with a more relaxed atmosphere during the afternoon, shifting towards upscale and stylish as the evening progresses. The premium setting makes it a popular spot for both elevated and buzzing after works, as well as special occasions and celebrations.

Tip: A few stairs above the rooftop bar you find a lovely pool deck, where guests staying at the Hotel Bennett can enjoy swimming and lounging with great views.
