Whitlow’s Expanding Upstairs With Rooftop ‘Fu Bar’

Whitlow’s is expanding — upward. The 15-year-old Wilson Boulevard institution has just received the building permit for a long-anticipated rooftop deck.

The wooden deck will have casual tiki bar theme and will be called “Fu Bar,” owner Greg Cahill tells us.

It will be massive — with room for up to 286 people. Food will be served and there will be about 50 tables for outdoor dining. The menu will remain the same as Whitlow’s this year, with changes possible for next year.

Construction is set to begin Monday and Cahill hopes to have the deck open in September.
