Suggestions for Museum near New York

Tariq A. • December 20, 2011Definitely plan to spend a good couple of hours here, but it's nearly impossible to see everything in one visit. It's massive! Definitely worth visiting.

Tatyana F. • October 14, 2013One of my top 5 favorite museums in the city. Their exhibitions are top notch, led by knowledgeable guides. This museum is always the highlight of my trip.

Linda D. • May 30, 2016Wonderful museum and art-collection, nicely presented! We had a little drink afterwards in their very cosy cafetaria. We were served super-friendly!!!

Katerina K. • October 10, 2016A favourite by first sight. Beautiful terraces in every level, great views and fantastic collections.

John B. • July 7, 2016It costs extra but worth it to see such an incredible feat of engineering up close and personal.

Caroline D. • December 13, 2015They have a great gift shop and free wifi! Cafe is nice and clean if you want to make it a work day

Paige C. • November 27, 2016Gets very crowded on weekends, but definitely always a fun place to visit with kids!

Alan M. • July 27, 2017Oddly enjoyable very small yet if your in the mood for drawings and a chilled reflecting day it's perfect

Tomas S. • October 17, 2017Best museum so far in NYC. A lot to see from the aircraft carrier, to drone exhibit and walking inside a submarine. Great experience. We squeezed a visit in 1h30m but you might want to take more time.

Tyler R. • November 7, 2010Wonderful shop, which will be bigger and better in new building. Great learning experience. Walking tours are fun!

Arun N. • May 4, 2010Wed evening happy hour from 5-7pm. Great to start your evening there. Not your typical bar ambience in a good way.

Sandra L. • August 30, 2010The Japanese classes here are great, really cheap, and in the evenings. They also go up to a really high level. Awesome way to learn Japanese or pick it back up/maintain it.

Dan S. • March 20, 2016Dark Universe was informative and a spectacular presentation. Wish the seats leaned back though. Makes you feel like the speck of galactic dust that we are!

Courtney K. • January 7, 2016I was pleasantly surprised by how amazing this place was. The collection is stunning, and even on the "pay what you wish" day it's easy to navigate.

Allie J. • May 19, 2014Recently went for my 1st time to see the Degenerate Art exhibit. It's a small but excellent museum. Definitely worth visiting! Security is strict about certain things, only b/c the spaces are narrow.

Matt D. • February 16, 2010Be sure to check out the whole place - I know it sounds daunting, but it is SO worth it and my kids loved it.

Josette • January 26, 2015Great Asia-inspired healthy, fresh food, good vegan too. Great weekend brunch and afternoon high-tea

Sarah N. • April 5, 2015The architecture is awesome, and the exhibits are fascinating. Visited in March 1998, when Art Honor Society @ WHS had their field trip. It was the perfect day, especially for me when I was just 15!

Zeba S. • May 29, 2016Such a vast collection of books! Do visit it to explore its interiors and architecture. Its a book lovers paradise

Richard W. • September 19, 2022This cold war submarine is fantastic to visit. Veterans will tell you how it works and how was the life aboard. A must see in NY.
