I remember when revolving restaurants were the ultimate travel splurge—sky-high dining with a constantly changing view. If you’re anything like me, you still get a little thrill from that slow spin above the city. These restaurants were often tucked into the top floors of sleek hotels or high-rises, serving up a full meal alongside a 360-degree panorama.
And while they’re not as common as they once were, I’m happy to say you can still find these retro-chic gems all around the world. From Canada’s iconic La Ronde, which has been spinning for over 50 years, to Egypt’s 360 – The Revolving Restaurant with views of the Nile, you’ve got options. So if you’re in the mood for a little culinary nostalgia with a killer view, I say go for it—you’ll enjoy the ride (and the dinner).
