Avin NarasimhanJune 7, 2015Let's be real-- you come here for the water views. If you're expecting to be blown away by the place itself...can't help you. Get a strong drink and a seat outside, and enjoy the atmosphere
refinery29August 3, 2014Watermark houses a sophisticated dining experience that is meant to merge unparalleled views with top-shelf dining. Killer cocktails, American eats, and design make this a spot that’s not to miss. Read more
- Brad GaroonJune 18, 2015A simple, understated, but excellent burger. The tomato was unnoticeable, which is the best thing you can say about a tomato on a burger, and both the patty and bun had a wonderful flavor. Read more
christina mcleodJune 1, 2013Tough opening night but they made up for it in free cocktails. Watermelon press cocktail great, tasty hot dog with bacon. Will give it some time to settle in but welcome addition to the neighborhood.
Justin BartonJuly 15, 2013Newly rebuilt pier that has double deck . The Watermark Bar is not overly expensive, the drinks are decent and the views are amazing. The crowds also aren't big, a better alternative to the seaport
Marie CarmenOctober 21, 2017Nice place in Fidi to grab a beer. Outdoor seating right on the water overlooking Brooklyn.- Dallas ShortOctober 12, 2013Awesome views, great place. Feels like a sports bar on the water. The service is ehh, but they are busy.
HenaliOctober 17, 2014Food is ehh but view is beautiful during warm weather. A great new bar to check out in FiDi :)
Lili RamirezJune 11, 2019Cool place! Perfect for summer. It sucks that they have 3 TVs playing Fox News! Annoying!
Russell HirschornOctober 15, 2017Very small bar right on the water with outdoor seating. Mermaid drink looks cool, but tastes like crap. Nice for a scenic drink in good weather.
IGJune 12, 2014FREE tip! Avoid this place please!!! Go Anywhere else on Greenwich St If you really want a nice place. ;)
CBS New YorkJune 12, 2015They're serving a special Frozen Margarita for NYC Cocktail Week (July 13th through the 17th). Read more
Nancy LeeJune 1, 2013Watermark signature burger sooooo good !!!!! Drinks need a lil more liquor tho !
Kris MinksteinMay 17, 2013Looking forward to this place opening. Drinks on the pier are going to be perfect this summer
KattJuly 13, 2015The view is beautiful and relaxing... The bar serves drinks in tiny cups..food over priced
Erica BMay 16, 2015Amazing views, terrible service. Only 2 beer choices on the menu. No bathroom at all- you have to walk down the pier to another building, compete with tourists, and wait for 1 stall. Not worth it!
Ashley YangJanuary 22, 2014Cocktails were great! There were only three beer options and they were overpriced.
Brandon McGrawJune 1, 2013Avoid. Tables outside are hoarded by two tops that refuse to leave long after they've paid. Management unwilling to accommodate more communal seating. Food and service are sub par even when seated.
DiviaJuly 26, 2015No restrooms..a big NO to an outdoor place...expensive cover price for an average bar...view is great..drinks are well mixed..!!
Pierce PiersonJuly 7, 2013I got the bourbon drink and not too strong but there's definitely booze, just too much sour. Overpriced but nice view.
Victoria BathaAugust 16, 2014This place is awful. We ordered simple food half hour ago and it still isn't here. It isn't crowded. We were just told that our waitress left to go "help in the kitchen"...? What? Never again.
Marie La RueJanuary 18, 2021Standard bar food, nothing fancy here. Scenic harbor views. If you’re not a tourist, don’t bother.
Kirby BevisJune 1, 2013Terrible service. Took 30 min for me to get my first drink. Cheeseburger doesn't come with fries? Bartender is reading off an ingredients list when making cocktails. Cocktails have no alcohol n them
Dulcita CocoJanuary 12, 2024Way too overpriced for the drinks and service rendered. Beautiful views, though.
Nazary NebelukJuly 23, 2014Great view but mediocre service and kinda pricey. Tiny selection of beers
Yuri SerafiniAugust 15, 2014Waited more than thirty minutes for a hamburger at 2 p.m. (not even rush hour)
Anna DohertyJuly 13, 2013Service was horrible and the food was over priced. The sangria was tiny, and way too sweet. Loud pop music playing killed the mood.
JessicaMay 25, 2014This place sucks. Service is terrible. No one even came over to take our order so we walked out!

"The house cocktail (The Jungle Bird) is a refreshing mix of tiki and Campari. The crispy rice bites were delicious and made for a nice snack. Service friendly too."
Matthew Ferguson - 7.8
"Private, heated booths in the outdoor “lodge” have fun, laid-back dj music. Mezcal Jenny, Tiki Chalet cocktails did not disappoint. Braised brisket quesadilla and molé chicken nachos were delicious."
