Brian WellsSeptember 11, 2011Go here for brunch and enjoy the cool, open air and scenic Manhattan skyline from the rooftop. Come back at night for the lively crowd. The drinks are expensive but the atmosphere can be electric.
Raphael MbarekJuly 8, 2017Nice view at night. The atmosphere is a bit cheesy "made for masses". Have a drink there and move on or before going home ✌🏻💤
New York HabitatFebruary 25, 2014With amazing views of the Empire State building, this bar offers great music, an eclectic crowd and a a great rooftop view for the warmer weather!
Kate💎💋❤September 9, 2019Nice view of the Empire State Building and cool place to chill after a long day. The cocktail list has nothing special.. I tried the white sangria which was ok!
Benjamin La MadridAugust 12, 2015The raspberry mojito is amazing, made with real fruit. It's a must have on a summer evening taking in the views
IFLYtheworld.comJune 5, 2013Best time to go here is sunset. Have a drink and watch the Empire State Building and the NY skyline while the light is changing slowly.
Heartee VillaluzFebruary 26, 2016The view is definitely awesome. They have the igloos to accommodate visitors for free and they lend coats too! Even though its really cold out in the roof, they have heaters too!
Naty GAugust 19, 2018No cover. Super nice place. Lounge, house and latin music. The rooftop views are great. I loce it
N AvedisMay 8, 2019Very touristy. Personally not my kind of place but it is nice to bring guests up here to show the beautiful New York skyline
Julie SosciaJanuary 27, 2019Although touristy, this venue boasts terrific views of the Empire State Building. In the winter, grab a robe and enjoy the views with added heaters and insulated seating.
Natalia QuinteroJune 22, 2012Largest rooftop bar in New York City. Spectacular head-on look at the Empire State, Chrysler, NYLife ,and Met Life buildings. Off into the distance, you can see the Statue of Liberty.Open year-round.
Sue BridgesAugust 13, 2013Great view, friendly staff and yummy drinks. Our server Angelica was adorable and so nice! We had a great time and will definitely be back on our next visit.
David Fajardo PulidoJune 11, 2018Be sure to get at least 2 hours before sunset, otherwise you won’t have a good table. Also, the level below the rooftop was almost empty, that’s another option to have great views of the Empire State
Carina 💖October 20, 2014The best view you could have in New York. There's nothing comparable to this. They have very good cocktails. The crab cake is perfect
Great view of the Empire State Building on the rooftop! Brunch buffet is worth the reasonable price of $30.- Perine WeilandMay 27, 2015Great view on the Empire State Building. I went there in the Winter and they had plaids and bathrobe for visitors to keep warm! Great apple ciders too !
Brian PhillipsSeptember 29, 2013One of the douchey-ish places I have been to in NYC! If it wasn't for friends visiting out of town for the view I wouldn't step foot on the block! Wow this is my first "leave tip"
al viciedoJuly 30, 2011Amazing Rooftop bar with fantastic views of the NYC skyline. Upscale decor, lots of patio bars and beautiful people. One con: Beer selection is limited to Amstel, Heineken, Stella and one other beer.- StrolmFebruary 27, 2016saturday brunch is perfect here. yummy food & good service. nice atmosphere. perfect view over manhattan. and not too crowded.
- New York HabitatMarch 17, 2014With amazing views of the Empire State building, this bar offers great music, an eclectic crowd and a great mix of cocktails!
michael geezerFebruary 24, 2011What a spectacular place to have a stylish NYC night out. The roof deck of this bar is ENORMOUS and worth it for the views you have a direct view of the empire state building. I recommend you sit on- Evan ChenJuly 27, 2014Amazing view of New York City Skyline and the Empire State Building. Drinks are really good too!
Darren DegiorgioJuly 3, 2018Great views!! We went when there was a private party so it was pretty hectic. They need more people working the bar!
Shawn ThorntonApril 1, 2016Don't worry about going on a chilly day/night. They provide warm robes to chill in while having your favorite drink with a view to love.
JarrodOctober 29, 2013Great views. Make sure you dress warm if it's brisk outside. They have blankets to get under, but still it's quite chilly. That said, get there just before sunset and watch the city change.
Alex AlbertMay 4, 2018The guys are a bit too touchy touchy feely BUT the music was amazing. The drinks were normal but triple the price. The rooftop was the highlight of course and that’s free
Sarah SMay 2, 2014Aside from the killer view, the best part about this place was the traffic jam that occurs when everyone stops at the rooftop entrance to take their official Instagram of the skyline.- Lears FoolNovember 23, 2015All about the view. But you can even enjoy on a chilly night, thanks to the heat lamps, and not having to wait for service.
- Bayan BamukhayyarNovember 26, 2016Amazing views of the empire states building - a good time but mainly full of tourists.
Grégory Lemaire Van H.February 11, 2014Exclusive clubbing, awesome view inside and outside. One of the best paces i've been to!
Chris MetzAugust 11, 2014The view is amazing, great atmosphere. Perfect spot to meet up with friends in the city.
Sebastian GrippoFebruary 9, 2016This lounge has the best view of NYC, it is a great place to hang out. If you go to Manhattan this place is a must
Jacqueline OliverioDecember 31, 2012Love the Red snuggle robes for winter weather. Best view in ths city! Recommend the blueberry lychee martini! I <3 NY
Kevin SetoDecember 30, 2017Check out the heated rooftop igloos in the winter. Grab a boozy hot chocolate or apple cider and enjoy the view.- Tamika JOctober 1, 2017The crowd is mainly tourist and the outdoor picnic furniture. The people only drank beer and water. I’m use to the past rooftop experience with top shelf liquor and bottle service. Not going back!
Josh CollinsApril 14, 2014Amazing view. Free to get in. Drinks were pricey, but you're paying for the view. Bartenders use the jigger / pony devoutly, so don't hope for a heavy-handed pour
Stephen ShamusSeptember 28, 2019I normally don’t rate something unless it was poor (shame on me), but a gentleman named Jonathan went above and beyond at the comedy show last night. I saw many people complimenting him. A++
NearSay NYCAugust 2, 2011230 boasts one of the city's most 'lavish' and amazing vistas. Don't just take our word for it! Malaysian Shrimp Salad is to die for!! It's grilled pork, scallion, green mango and papaya. It's delish!- Hartje UtrechtMarch 7, 2015I liked this rooftop bar! Yes, the drinks are expensive and the service isn't that great. But the view was amazing and on cold days they have heaters and fleece snuggies.
Amber SolettiApril 13, 2014Hot after-work singles party happening here on April 25th from 6:30-11:00pm.
Bebo GonzálezMay 8, 2012Open Rooftop Area and a 1st floor dance floor. All you need for an amazing night. * Used to be a kept secret…. now be ready to have some $$ on hand to get in.. or avoid the line.
Nazan OsmanoğluNovember 12, 2017My best place in Manhattan at night. High quality and convenient prices.
Lucy MariaJuly 15, 2022Beautiful views and overall fun spot for brunch and late night! Always have a great time here!
Natalia BakerOctober 14, 2014A touch touristy and overpriced to get up there (girls get cheaper entry), but worth the views of Empire State while having a drink. Indoor bar available if it's cold.
Stavria K.August 1, 2015Amazing view, plain cocktails with some kitch details in the design. Not unexpected as tourists love that place!
Alper BahçekapılıSeptember 20, 2016A must see view of Manhattan. Moderately priced. If it's on your way, just have a quick drink.- Chrissy KMay 26, 2016There is a rooftop and a on indoor lounge. Great decor in the lounge. Great views
Janice ChowSeptember 13, 2017Worn out, old, dodgy bar. Super touristy. You can't even see Empire State Building because it's blocked by some wooden boards. There are so many better rooftop bars in manhattan.
Paloma NarinesinghNovember 19, 2015The view is spectacular. There's a great flow of energy. And the drinks are soo good! Definitely recommended.

"Time your trip with the sun. With wide windows and amazing views, the heat will magnify and seats can get uncomfortable. You can't beat sunset though."
