"This is one of the best locales in the city…for views, which are hard to appreciate after a sweaty slog up the hill... The comfort level varies but the rooftop cafe in the parkside setting is good." Full review
"Housed in a former observatory, this offers (predictably) good views, best taken in over coffee or beer from its rooftop café."
