we spent five nights in venice last year; two places to have a drink - the terrace bar of the westin - views of salute are unbelievable!! second, go to the rooftop of the hotel danieli for a drink. Both places are awesome and the memories you'll have will last forever!!!

Thanks again to everyone for the replies. I have one more question. We can just walk into these places if we are just having drinks right? Are they typically open all day or only during the lunch and dinner hours? Thanks again!

Thanks again to everyone for the replies. I have a couple more questions.

We can just walk into these places without a reservation if we are just having drinks right? Also, are they typically open all day or only during the lunch and dinner hours? Thanks again!

yes, you can just walk in; the drinks are not inexpensive but the view is worth it. you may also get some complementary snacks (at the rooftop of the danieli they were quite good!)

The hotel La Calcina's restaurant has a lovely wooden deck/patio facing the canal which name begins with G (sorry, can't remember). I don't know if they serve dinner there, though. We had brunch there last May. It is a very nice restaurant, excellent service, pretty blue umbrellas, and a view across the water of pretty architecture. Very peaceful. Not outrageous prices, good menu.

Didn't mean to post!

Website is http://www.lacalcina.com/HTML/en/cal...ina_1b_en.html

And I typed the name wrong: Bar Ristorante La Piscina

The umbrellas are now off-white, not blue, just to be precise.

My daughter and I had Mother's Day brunch there. I highly recommend it, if you can get a table outside for the view.

Sorry for all the typos!
