- Oysters and Rene's delicious cocktails galore! Come early to score a sunset view. There are seats at the bar while you wait for a table. The perfect summer hour-long getaway if you beat the crowds.
- WillMcDAugust 9, 2014Great place to spend the late afternoon. Cocktails and oysters are their specialty. For a refreshing bev highly recommend the Sherman's Cup.
- Noah WeissJuly 8, 2017Frying Pan for adults. Try to skip the crowds and get a cocktail by the front, with seating.Upvoted Sep 10
- Ben MackeyAugust 10, 2018Boat ✅, amazing city views ✅, oysters ✅, cocktails ✅. What is not to like about this place in the summer?
- Morgan McKeeJuly 6, 2017Sunday funday! Delicious oysters and rose to enjoy the sun on the weekend. Sit down to enjoy yourself and try a few apps or crowd around the bar. Either way drinks and food are flowing
- Valerie SAugust 23, 2017Come for a quick drink or bite with fantastic views and atmosphere on the Hudson. Super friendly service. Reservations are needed for sit-down service. Also can get a little rocky on windy days.
- CharlottesSeptember 28, 2015Best date night of the summer. We sat at the oyster bar up the back and enjoyed 2 dozen expertly shucked east coast beauties and unobstructed sunset views across the Hudson. Magic
- Josephine SonSeptember 14, 2014Finally made it here at end of summer. Lovely spot, especially to watch the sunset. Get some cocktails and oysters of course and just enjoy being on a boat in the middle of the madness of NYC!
- Nikhil GadreAugust 18, 2018Although a bit overpriced (you WILL pay for the views - which are beautiful, looking out to the Jersey City skyline)... but the oysters are well worth it (and a good wine selection to go with it)..
- @thirstyJuly 8, 2016We love oysters and wine and sitting in the sun, so Grand Banks is the obvious choice for summer time drinking. Located on an old schooner ship, it's got a super-cute vibe and tasty food and drinks.
- Matthew CaldecuttJuly 17, 2015Stumptown Coffee and quality lobster rolls with oysters. It's a small menu, but it's a good one.
- StefanieNovember 3, 2015Where has this place been all of my life. An amazing faux escape from Manhattan for lunch. The lobster roll is the only thing to order, of course!
- Julie SosciaJanuary 27, 2019Only open in the summer starting mid-April. Enjoy being on a boat in the Hudson River! Everything is delicious here, especially the Lobster Roll. Also a great assortment of fresh oysters.
- The New YorkerJuly 22, 2014“Naked Cowboy oysters from the Long Island Sound, along with creamy, clam-shaped Kusshis from Vancouver Island, supplemented several truly small plates.” Read more
- Marc SchneebergerJuly 16, 2017Great tasty oysters. Specially the east coast ones. Wines are decent and the ship itself is amazing! Its a must in tribeca!
- Village VoiceApril 3, 2015What's better than patio drinking? Boat drinking. Board this seasonal vessel and toss back oysters with cocktails before moving on to lobster rolls and beer. Read more
- Josephine SonJuly 26, 2015Perfect spot for the Summer in NYC! Head there in late afternoon and enjoy the sunset! Lovely cocktails and great fresh seafood!
- Time Out New YorkSeptember 15, 2014Kick off New York Oyster Week at Grand Banks. Throughout the 18-day festival, chefs across the city at marquee fish houses and oyster bars will curate menus highlighting riffs on the half shell. Read more
- Blake MorrisJuly 11, 2014This is the best place in the city for a romantic and sexy place to have oysters at sunset. I can't wait to take my wife on Saturday
- Oz LublingJune 15, 2015A great place for a date. The drinks are fantastic. The oysters and lobster roll are top notch. The view isn't bad either 👍🏻
- Sunny KheraJuly 20, 2014Amazing view, venue and delicious food! Must try the crudo, squash blossom and baked oysters - food is really good as are the cocktails and it's worth the money.
- Tara Maylyn Frankel LeavittAugust 11, 2014Oysters you don't often see on the menu accompany your gentle drift on the water with a clear view of Ms. Liberty herself. Warning: it may take a few minutes to get your sea legs.
- Nikki BogopolskayaAugust 9, 2014Go for a glass of rosè on the gorgeous deck but skip the wait for dinner. The line may look intimidating on a warm summer night but moves very quickly, stick it out.
- Mike SingletonJuly 16, 2014This Hudson river oyster bar is fantastic. Expect it to be packed, so try visiting during the day (opens at noon on weekends).
- Daniel McDonoughMay 24, 2015Awesome spot to grab a drink on the water. The line moves pretty quick so don't worry.
- Britt BanterSeptember 13, 2016Stunning summer view on a moored boat that transcends you to the Sein... Fantastic service and cocktails.. I can't get enough. #Magical #perfectdatespot
- AditiOctober 13, 2016beautiful and great cocktails (try revolution)! Oyster selection was delicious and the fries are really good!
- Jennifer GallardoJune 16, 2017It rocks...like, a lot. And also, so many douchey guys in Ray Bans. We sat at the bar which was fine but I don't think I'd venture to eat or do more than a couple of drinks when it's crowded.
- Julie SosciaAugust 1, 2018Note lines and extra wait times on the weekends, due to the smaller size of the space. On a boat, the views are gorgeous..make sure to try the lobster rolls!

- Matthew SpectorFebruary 15, 2015Oysters and rosé. This newcomer to Tribeca is a grown-up version of thr Frying Pan. Great for groups.
- S MJanuary 9, 2016Love this spot!!! Go on weekday nights for a drink. Weekends are madness and not much to say about the food menu so just go for a drink on a weekday.
- Swen GrahamSeptember 27, 2014Fun fact about this fun frigate: you can bring along your furry four legged friends to hang with you while you sip rosé
- rama dasAugust 15, 2014I am albe to give you all kinds of smm service. facebook like, Twitter follow, instagram follow etc as much as you need at a cheaper rate. With a super fast speed. (ramadas07) thats my skype idThanks!
- DoubleDeuceJune 14, 2015I mean, it's probably the best boat that you can sit in and have a drink on the Hudson while tethered to a pier. Aside from this place, always practice safe boating.
- IrmaZandl ZandlSlantAugust 9, 2014Fabulous if you get here at 4pm when they open. By 5pm the place is jammed. Boat is rocky so if you get seasick may not be for you
- Ashley ChanAugust 13, 2016Really fun place to brunch. The boat is docked but you get a nice breeze and clear view of the Hudson River! Get the oysters and some cocktails.
- Mike FriedmanSeptember 3, 2016Summer menu is loaded with treats: Heirloom Tomato & Watermelon Salad, Sea Scallops with Succotash + Soft Shell Crab Rolls. Plus... Oysters.
- Ryan HaighAugust 9, 2014West Coast oysters, Old Bay chips, ceviche and lobster roll were all incredible.
- Eric MorrisAugust 15, 2015Awesome location/view/venue but a tad overpriced. You can get better oysters elsewhere as well. A lot of fun though despite the long waits.
- David SAugust 6, 2014Any West coast oysters, the crudo and the old bay chips are fantastic...and the view!
- Mike SingletonJuly 16, 2014It's a smaller boat than the frying pan so expect some rougher seas than you're used to. That, or you've had too much.
- Elliot WehnerJuly 11, 2015Cool breeze off the Hudson, good selection of beer and wine but due to some agmt w the park can only serve the cocktails on the menu.
- Cameron ParkerAugust 30, 2014Great cocktails, well done renovation of a beautiful boat outfitted to be a great bar and restaurant. The bathrooms are even nice!
- Pir GranoffSeptember 1, 2015Great date spot. Awesome setting and views. Gets absurdly crowded though. Be careful if you get sea sick, as well.
- Natasha ZuluagaJune 21, 2015Great place for an afternoon or after work drink. Don't bring your big group - keep it small to avoid waiting on line.
- Swen GrahamJuly 29, 2014You have to order food to sit at a table, but the ceviche is a nice light addition to your drink selection
- Staff PicksAugust 29, 2014Catch the sunset while you sip on a cool cocktail near the Hudson at this beautiful spot. Bonus, they have oysters. Read more
