Upscale open air rooftop bar that provides a fantastic view of the Empire State building . Drinks here are potent, I can tell from the quality of Whiskey used! Lively vibe and service right on point👌
This small Midtown operation employs a retractable glass structure to seal in the warmth in the fall. Seasonal drinks roll out in early November, but there's no wrong season for a Strandhattan ($20). Read more
Easy to access, fabulous view of the city (especially the Empire State Building). Not a lot of seats, but a great atmosphere. At least worth visiting once for a drink and the view.
The pictures give this view no justice. You must experience drinking in the shadow of the Empire first hand. Also, ask for the cute and ever pleasant host, Michelle. The service was great
$9 beers, $15 cocktails. A nice atmosphere - chill and classy without being too fancy, touristy, or douchey. And to top it off, an incredible view of the Empire State Building.
This must be the best view of the city: you are staring right at the Empire State Building. Sunday around six is the best time to come, when it's more relaxed and less crowded.
fairly small rooftop area (and has a retractable one for colder months!), but has an amazing view and good vibe. probably better on a weeknight, less crowded.
Best place to have a break in front of the Empire State Building, in a big sofa, with soft electro music & good cocktails. Afternoon becomes quiet, night becomes magic !
Top of the Strand is an intimate rooftop bar/lounge at Strand Hotel NYC. Our retractable glass rooftop allows for spectacular NYC skyline views, 365 days.
