Our story

A little of Rio, above the rooftops of Kathmandu

Copacabana began with a simple idea: take the warmth and colour of a Brazilian beach and lift it onto a rooftop with one of the best views in the valley.

The concept

Where Latin America meets the Himalaya

Named after the famous shoreline of Rio de Janeiro, Copacabana is a 360° rooftop lounge, restaurant and bar perched atop the Everest Bank Building in Naxal. By day it's an open-air escape with panoramic valley views; by night, lanterns glow and the music starts.

The food travels as freely as the mood — tacos, burritos and nachos from the Latin side, momos and sizzlers from closer to home, fresh prawns from the grill, and a cocktail list built for sunset. It's a place for long lunches, first dates, big birthdays and everything between.

One rooftop, two names. Copacabana Kathmandu also operates as Barrack Rooftop Lounge by Copacabana — the same venue, the same 360° terrace atop the Everest Bank Building in Naxal.

What we're about

Four things we never compromise on

Tropical at heart

Palms, lanterns and a beach-inspired terrace that carries a little of Rio to the Himalaya.

A kitchen without borders

Latin-American plates and Nepalese favourites, cooked side by side and meant for sharing.

Made for evenings

Live music, DJ nights and a full bar turn the rooftop into the city's golden-hour stage.

Genuine hospitality

The thing guests mention most after the view — warm, attentive, unhurried service.

Come for the view. Stay for the night.
