The story
Perched 98 to 107 meters above the Elbe, Clouds - Heaven's Bar & Kitchen occupies the top three floors of the iconic "Dancing Towers" on the Reeperbahn. Designed by star architect Hadi Teherani, this striking skyscraper has been a landmark of the St. Pauli skyline since 2013. The restaurant offers a panoramic view over Hamburg that is as dramatic as the architecture itself.
Clouds has earned a Michelin recommendation for its commitment to quality and a sustainable approach to international cuisine. The kitchen emphasizes fresh, seasonal ingredients and caters to a range of preferences, with dishes suitable for both vegans and vegetarians.
During a period of renovation, the main restaurant has temporarily paused, but the Clouds kitchen continues to operate on the 22nd floor. Here, guests can book an exclusive private dining experience for groups of 15 or more. The set menu is a showcase of refined international cooking, featuring starters like creamy burrata with cherry tomatoes and basil-infused olive oil, or freshly sliced roast beef with homemade rémoulade.
Main courses highlight prime ingredients: sliced beef fillet and Black Tiger prawns are served with sides like wild broccoli in lemon-almond butter and roasted baby potatoes. A selection of desserts, including a chocolate cake with a molten core and panna cotta with blackberries, rounds out the meal. A vegan menu is available on request, featuring dishes such as grilled artichoke hearts and creamy risotto with forest mushrooms.
The experience extends to the open rooftop terrace, the clouds Heaven’s Nest, which provides an unparalleled vantage point over the city. The bar offers a large selection of drinks, and the entire venue is designed for both intimate dinners and celebratory gatherings. A private parking garage is located within the building.
While the main restaurant works towards reopening, the private dining offering ensures that the exceptional quality and sky-high views of Clouds remain accessible for those seeking a memorable meal in Hamburg.
