It always feels like there’s something going on in New York City. Whether you’re off to work or just spending the day wandering the City, people are always around and you can always feel the hustle and bustle around you. But sometimes you need time to relax. Sometimes you need to have a drink and enjoy the view.
New York City is known for its rooftop bars and lounges. With sky high buildings, it’s no wonder that restaurateurs are taking their businesses to the top – literally. Enjoy my personal list of the six best NYC rooftop bars where you can enjoy spectacular views and a cocktail as well!
The Kimberly Hotel on the East Side is one such place to do this surrounded by elegance! “Upstairs” is where you’ll get views of Midtown thirty stories above street level. With views of the Chrysler Building and beautifully designed indoor/outdoor spaces; you may never want to leave!
Rare View Chelsea offers not only a view of the Chrysler Building, but also of the Empire State Building. The wraparound roof offers view wherever you are. Comfy seating and great ambiance at night with candlelit tables will help you leave all the stress of the day behind. Grab a drink or something to eat and just take it all in. Definitely a must for an after work drink and good laughs with friends.
Press Lounge on the sixteenth floor of Ink 48 in Midtown has the views you want in a casual setting. Take a look at the Hudson River while drinking a specialty drink and enjoying something delicious.
There’s outdoor seating and even a glass-enclosed lounge so no matter where you are; you’re sure to be having fun!
The Delancey has been a Lower East Side favorite bar/rock club that offers an amazing rooftop space with beautiful views as well. A few minutes in line is well worth the wait for benches, fountains, and a view of the Williamsburg Bridge. This may easily be the most laid back rooftop that you can find in the City; so grab a Stella and head straight for the roof!
