There’s nothing like rooftop dining, especially when the weather is beautiful. Iowa might not have the skyscrapers of some other states, especially outside of Des Moines, but its eastern cities have some incredible views of their own. That’s the case at UP Skybar, a unique rooftop restaurant in Iowa. Located at The Current, a boutique hotel in Davenport, it serves up delicious small plates along with an amazing view of the Mississippi River. Whether it’s day or night, there is no other meal like this in Davenport. It’s tempting to just sit back, relax with a drink and some small plates, and let a peaceful day while away.

Eating inside UP Skybar takes you to a classy modern restaurant surrounded by windows with a view of the Davenport skyline.
