A Cocktail Lovers Guide to NYC Rooftops
May 1st, 2017 | Bar & Nightlife
Spring has sprung! Head to these rooftop bars for sumptuous craft cocktails with stunning city views.
ROOF AT PARK SOUTH
Cosmopolitan sights of the Chrysler and Empire State Building compliment this copper-sided lounge. Sip on expertly executed drinks from an easily navigable cocktail menu that categorizes libations based on drinkability and fanciness. We suggest the Count & Countess, which is a white Negroni infused with a fruity grappa and a smooth toffee-like oat whisky.
Roof at Park South, 125 E 27th Street, New York 10016
GALLOW GREEN
On the west side, nestled on the roof of the famed Sleep No More, McKittrick Hotel, you will find a garden as appealing as it is mysterious. Peppered with fairy lights and the remnants of an old train track as decor, the high ball cocktails and vintage eclectic feel with set the tone for your spring evening.
Gallow Green, 542 W 27th St, New York, 10001
POD 39 ROOFTOP
Panoramic views spanning from the East River down to the Freedom Tower, and up to the Empire State Building, make this a buzzing after work spot. Known for their tequila inspired cocktails, made by master mixologist Sam Anderson from Freeman's and Hotel Delmano, try the Weathervane for a mix of rye whisky, rosemary, ginger, Campari and lemon juice.
