Set above the city of Madaba, at its highest point, St. John Rooftop is a place to slow down, share a table, and enjoy the moment, just as people have done on this land for centuries.
Madaba has always been a meeting point.
The space unfolds gently, revealing layers of character from Roman forms and Arabic details to modern lines and Middle Eastern warmth, all coming together to feel natural, calm, and timeless.

Our menu is still being prepared, where our food will be rooted in authenticity and made with love, inspired by tradition and shaped by care.
Dishes are designed to be shared, enjoyed, and remembered, the kind of food that brings people closer and keeps them at the table a little longer.
As the sun dips behind Madaba’s rooftops, the mood shifts. Drinks are poured, music settles in, and the evening unfolds naturally.
Whether you’re here for dinner, sunset drinks, or a long night of conversation, moments happen without effort.
St. John Rooftop is where Madaba slows down and the evening begins, elevated above the city, with good food, crafted drinks, and an atmosphere made for conversation, sunsets, and staying a little longer.
