The latest “It” place, Z Hotel features a 5,000-square-foot rooftop bar accompanied by an amazing view of Manhattan, plus crispy thin-crust pizza and $12 cocktails.
The perfect rooftop escape that is still manages to be a well-kept secret. On the 14th floor of the La Quinta hotel serving outdoor drinks and views of the Empire State Building.
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 !
Solid rendering of German foods and beer, unbeatable spot for summer day drinking! But... Rude (and hectoring!) waitstaff, poor service, bad attitudes.
Grab a few and plan on staying for awhile when its nice out - the backgarden is on our top urban oasis list.
Have al fresco brunch here on Sundays with great views of the High line and the Standard. We enjoyed the Mac & Cheese Bites, STK and Eggs and Brioche French Toast.
La Piscine, the rooftop pool and restaurant at the Americano. Unlike city-funded pools, this one comes with daybeds and cabanas, cocktail service, light fare from the Latin-French menu. อ่านเพิ่มเติม
Speakeasy-style bar that feels like having drinks at your rich friend's house. Excellent cocktails and a beautiful patio. Reservations recommended for peak hours.
On top of a 19th-century townhouse sits this German-inspired beer garden. You’ll have to journey through two floors of crowds and thumping music to get there, but it’s worth the fresh air and steins.
Great place to work from during the day. Not too crowded, good music, free wifi.
Hit the rooftop, and try a fried pickle with your bourbon-glazed burger. Toppings are endless--but we recommend caramelized crush walnuts and bleu cheese. And don't forget the truffle-butter steaks.
Nice lounge right next to Times Square. They have fun cocktails and tasty snacks. Make sure to check out the roof top, which is heated and covered during winter time.
NYC [Do] One of our favorite spots in the summertime. Sky Terrace has great views, cocktails and the most comfortable lounge chairs-- heaven on a sunny day!
Make reservations .. Almost every seat is reserved in advance yes! On the roof -- even the picnic benches and sofas
The rooftop restaurant of the Gramercy hotel from Danny Meyer. Breakfast is the thing here, especially the no-holds-barred cereal bar.
Grab a table early on the corner at this Alphabet City beer garden. After a couple of Spatens, take a stroll to East River Park.
Very fun atmosphere for pre-dinner drinks. Grab a cocktail and head to the back benches to enjoy the unique lighting and ambiance to set the mood for a great date. #vday
A block or so away from Grand Sichuan, Chop Shop offers peace, calm, and fusion. With its quietude and humility, it's best for: an unassuming date.
You’ll find fun and games on this Williamsburg bar’s 2,600-square-foot brick patio. Grab a beer or cocktail and sit at one of the tables made of wood reclaimed from a Rockaway Beach boardwalk in 2010. อ่านเพิ่มเติม
Show up early (the roof opens at 2 p.m. on weekends) and grab a wooden booth, which comes with an umbrella to shield you from the afternoon sun. There's a solid selection of beer, including Fosters. อ่านเพิ่มเติม
Some of the best al fresco dining in NYC. Generously portioned guacamole for the value. Freshly made chips too!
What'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. อ่านเพิ่มเติม
New to the hip Williamsburg food scene, these spot serves up delicious tacos (especially the beef cheek tacos) and delicious margaritas (our favorite is the Watermelon). Try to snag a seat outside!
Views are amazing. Top 10 Rooftops in NYC!! Must have reservations for the rooftop on the weekends or an in with Jamie. The bar small bites are good. Try the conch fritters.
Perfect afternoon snack: a $7 Greek yogurt with fresh berries and honey. Huge outdoor patio and free wifi makes this a great place to work, too.
Do you like cheap beer in big styrofoam cups? Then this is the place for you. Nice outside porch and surprisingly solid bar food. Down to earth bartenders and plenty of TVs for game watching.
Best place to spend a summer day (or evening) in Hoboken. Always a great selection of food trucks (best lobster rolls around) and great (but pricey) drinks. Amazing views and atmosphere - very trendy.
Surprisingly low-key, casual rooftop bar with a pretty nice view, but they close a little early.
With a miniature golf course and outdoor waterfront seating, this Red Hook bar and restaurant is a great spot to enjoy a leisurely drink on a warm and sunny afternoon.
Located in part of the historic Hittleman Brewery, the bar is stocked with twenty kinds of champagne and three hundred varieties of beer. The massive space also includes an outdoor music venue. อ่านเพิ่มเติม
I love this place. Especially in the summer..waterfront. boats, great food, drinks and entertainment, parties, friends, great staff....who could ask for more? Try it! Can't lose....EVER.
The bar's backyard is outfitted with bright blue and red tables and benches, tiki-hut roofs and funky Pacific Island-themed torches and decor. It's a fun little hidden gem. อ่านเพิ่มเติม
A beautiful outdoor space, a great pinball machine, and most importantly, a carefully selected list of American and European beers. But ignore Thrillist's tip - it's NOT a "beer garden!"
if you're ever in BK during the summer hit this spot on a friday, saturday or sunday! OFF THE HOOK!!! Get the cuban corn and a mohito.
With cocktails, beer, and $1 oysters daily until 7pm, the Narrows is a Bushwick favorite that also features a welcoming backyard and a handful of late-night snacks.
Mozz grilled cheese is so sweet n yummy :) french fries are good too! Nice backyard and a cozy bar space with a friendly staff
Nowadays is like a giant suburban backyard, complete with grass to lie in, picnic tables, and a sweet ping pong table to challenge your friends on. อ่านเพิ่มเติม
Great quaint neighborhood place with cute rooftop, friendly staff. Pork Betty bento is great.
Sit at the bar or on the terrace, Paris-style, shoulder to shoulder, and people watch.
Great brunch. Good vibe, outdoor seating, and a more interesting menu than normal. The trout po boy and the socca egg dish both standouts.
Great neighborhood spot. Burger, fries, coffee is great here. Designed and owned by architects (I think) next door, extremely cool. My dog loves it too cause he gets tied to an anchor with us outside.
Order new American plates (fresh-pressed tofu with sous vide pumpkin and smoked tomato, house-made cavatelli with a trotter ragù) while hanging in the backyard garden when it's nice out. อ่านเพิ่มเติม
seriously hidden gem with beautiful skyline and sunset views - floating bar on the greenpoint waterfront - old bay fries - chill crowd - what more do you need on a weekday summer night?
What a beautiful and delicious addition to the neighborhood! A charming backyard, negroni on tap, incredible service, and fresh pasta for sale to-go.
Super casual dog friendly spot with great drinks, food and games. $25 CC minimum so if you are lying to yourself about just having one drink, bring cash.
Outstanding Italian food served by cute and charming Italian waiters. Grab a table outside and dive into a plate of Spinach Gnocchi and a side of Meatballs. Make a reservation!
Small neighborhood bar with outdoor seating. 12 taps of, surprisingly rare, craft beer. Events on a regular basis and great service.
They serve food, and the #1 cause of under-drinking is hunger, but here, you'll never have to turn down a 6th day beer because of your whiney stomach or low blood-sugar. Plus, jenga and a firepit. อ่านเพิ่มเติม
Thanks to its sprawling back patio, this place can be a total sh*tshow in the summer - but get yourself an order of grilled corn and that perfect cuban sandwich.
“Neighborhood spot” and “mindblowing food” -- take advantage of the all-day spot for brunch, breakfasts, or dinner any night you want something just a little more elevated than your usual go-to.
This place is everything you ever wanted and more. Artisanal groceries, bar with tons of local options on tap, insane menu(hello bacon and caviar topped potatoes) and an outdoor area to top it all off
Can get crowded especially week days after work. Clean, hip vibe. Outdoor space in front for the summer. Tables in the back, good for groups.
Great selection of beer (lots of things you might not find elsewhere!) for solid prices. It's cozy and dark inside (clearly a great date spot), but there's also a big back patio for larger groups.
The beer revolution marches further east in Crown Heights with this joint featuring 20 taps, and pitchers of beer for those warm, sunny days in their sprawling shady backyard.
Come for the great craft beer selection, but stay for the free popcorn and the backyard seating!
Check out happy hour on the back patio: Rain or shine, drafts are $3, and well drinks are $5 from noon to 7pm daily. อ่านเพิ่มเติม
It's the perfect upscale but not stuffy date dinner. Menu often changes, but we loved the lamb porchetta, carrot crepes, trout, and chawanmushi. Tasty cocktails, too; enjoy them in the big backyard.
Awesome patio spot in the summer, great for early Saturday afternoons. Love the grilled cheese, every single one is amazing! Try a few during happy hour when they're $5 each
Visit the Black Tree sandwich guy in the back past the bar. They now reside in LES too but you better believe these seasonal/local produce gems got their start at The Crown Inn. They're phenomenal!!!
If you want to feel like you’re in Italy, drop by Anella’s flower-bedecked backyard some summer evening, far enough north on Greenpoint’s Franklin Street to feel like you’re on the frontier. อ่านเพิ่มเติม
Very cool spot from the owners of Attaboy. Tiki inspired cocktails, a great yard, and plenty of space inside and out for hanging out with friends.
Definitely a must go place especially on sunny days. View towards the Statue of Liberty along with the greens of Wagner Park is one of the best views in NY. Liked their menus in overall.
Super chill place with great service and delicious food. Great selection of beers and big outdoor space. What else could you want?!?!
The food here is great, and same with the service, but I'd avoid coming here before 8pm unless you want your ambiance to be screaming kids.
Dine outside in the back patio and enjoy amazing Falafel, Babaghanouj, Lentil Soup and Z’aatar Bread.
Backyard, spacious seating, great jams, and awesome beers on draft? I hesitate to write this tip as I don't want any spillover from Pearl's or Heavy Woods to find my new favorite neighborhood bar.
Ambiance, outdoor seating option, for lunch get the shrimp tacos & chicken quinoa bowl. Ask for coffee ice cream for dessert. Service was great. They have outlets and a beautiful space for working. 🌿
It's super quiet and actually feels like you're dining in someone's backyard. The team plans to fire up a smoker once summer officially gets going. อ่านเพิ่มเติม
I never get tired of their fish tacos and micheladas! Spicy mussels/Mexican corn/chopped salad also great. Outdoor seating is especially lovely when the weather is nice.
This Bowery-adjacent cocktail bar unveils a backyard garden as soon as the temperature rises, nearly doubling in size. During the week it’s laid-back option for a frozen strawberry margarita. อ่านเพิ่มเติม
So good! Get the crab wontons!! Oh and save room for dessert. They do s’mores in the back garden in the Winter.
Watched the sunset from here and took in breathtaking views of the city. The outdoor games are a fun addition and make the ambiance more playful.
Awesome spot with fun events. Go early, buy a bottle of wine, and linger with friends and good views.
Incredible!! Every dish was so flavorful (scallop, beef heart, and sweetbread skewers and lamb belly entree were amazing). Super friendly staff but can take a while to get a drink (only 3 bartenders)
Came for brunch, sat by the window and had really good food👌🏼. Get the Parmesan French toast!
Nice outdoor space. Great modern French cuisine. Fresh and simple. Get the carrots and the trout.
Everything! The vegetables are locally grown and exceptionally prepared. The menu is beyond. We ended up ordering basically the whole thing. I honestly can’t give this place a high enough rating.
Tuna tartare was to die for. Ambiance and vibe was perfect for a happy, warm Sunday evening dinner before the start of a busy week!
Good for groups with patio seating. Reasonably priced though servings are on the smaller side. Beer and wine sold too!
This bar is one of a kind!!! Gorgeous and great price. I am trying the oyster and the frozen drink right now. I would give it 10/10
Such a hidden gem! Get here early to snag a picnic table for a few drinks with a fantastic view
One of the most unique restaurants I’ve been to in NY! Great way to experience Governors Island
This 1920s-era art deco panoramic balcony on the 26th floor of the Beekman Tower, allowing you to sip craft cocktails and eat avocado toast on a historic and legitimately cool rooftop terrace.
I imagine this place would be great in summer but with roof deck all covered up in winter it’s just another bar, nothing special
Great sandwiches, ambiance, and an eclectic cheap beer selection. Highly recommend for a casual night out.
Brunch of potato latke (more pancake than potato) with shreds of smoked salmon $11. Good almond cappuccino and outdoor seating
Best patio in Brooklyn? I love this restaurant so much. They change up the menu a lot, and it’s always great.
Sipping wine out of a pricey Zalto stem is an activity typical of more formal surroundings, but at Charlie Bird, you swirl a smoky Rodano chianti riserva while nodding your head to the Notorious B.I.G อ่านเพิ่มเติม
Go when weather is nice, sit outside with a bottle of wine, and order spinach gnocchi.
Great brunch spot with outdoor seating. Order the avocado toast with crab & poached egg 😍😋
The happy hour is great value, not just oysters, but other small portions as well. And of course the drinks. Nothing special but good value.
Subpar service but nice atmosphere. Secret garden in the back. Decent burger, and good brunch menu.
Classics done right: bacon cheeseburger, fries, and onion rings are all great. Also a big plus that prices are not expensive at all!
Brunch is awesome! Anything with the fried chicken is finger licking good.
They welcome you with an amazing smell of pastries. I tried the quiche with eggplant. It was delicious. They sell beautiful small jewelry. It is an amazing breakfast place that everyone must try.
All my favorite things in a local bar - cheap, good food (even some healthy), huge backyard area, always the right level of crowded
Industry Kitchen boasts an impressively large dockside patio, so you can people-watch and boat-watch outdoors while picking through a pot of mussels
The laid back vibes inside Midnights’ Williamsburg translates onto the summery outdoor patio. Two daily happy hours make the bistro light-lit patio a fine place to spend summer days. อ่านเพิ่มเติม
Pretty cool bar tucked away in the middle of nowhere of LIC with some dangerous views of the Manhattan skyline; sunsets are incredible here. Unique finger food selection and great drink options
Even if you’re sitting inside at Rosie’s, you’ll still get to feel like you’re dining al fresco. อ่านเพิ่มเติม
