About The Key Rooftop Bar

The Key Rooftop Bar sits atop The Citadel food hall in Little River, bringing Key West-inspired vibes to Miami's northern edge. The rooftop pairs craft cocktails and a full bar with al fresco dining, letting guests order food from the Citadel's vendors below and bring it up to enjoy with a drink in hand.

The atmosphere is casual and cozy with a trendy edge, drawing a mix of locals, groups, and tourists looking for a relaxed evening outdoors. Bartenders are known for warm, attentive service and recommend favorites from a cocktail list inspired by island flavors.

Some nights bring live jazz, adding a laid-back soundtrack to the open-air setting. The rooftop gets breezy once the sun goes down, so a light jacket comes in handy later in the evening.

Open Thursday through Sunday, with later hours on Friday and Saturday nights, The Key is a go-to spot for a chill rooftop hang in Little River rather than a high-energy club scene.
