Gallow Green

I love this place. What an amazing space. From the servers in white tuxes, to the indoor twinkle lights, to the gifted mixologists, to the sultry band. One of my new favorite spots.

Absolutely beautiful rooftop bar/restaurant. Great food in a fantastic setting.

Good rooftop scene in the summer. After 11pm or so, they usher everyone to one of the downstairs bars, where you can enjoy some cool live music. A great change from the usual bar scene in NYC.

Very cool rooftop bar, with many trees and an old rail line to set the tone. Limited seating. Friendly bar staff and interesting (if pricey) cocktails in addition to a nice set of beer and wine. Haven't had their food.

A nice rooftop bar and beer garden where you will extremely thankful to get off the cramped and exceptionally slow elevator. This area of the city seems to attract a good number of European hostel stayers, and the crowd here seemed to reflect it on a Friday night. Make sure you are in the right line for the elevator as the bar and restaurant for the hotel are next to each other and have different lines. It took forever to get up, but the open space was refreshing and nice. You don't get high enough to have an exceptional view of the city, but you do get fresh air and a nice green space. The bar is pretty expansive though the line for drinks moves a bit slow as people are on their own time from the hotel. The beer menu was ok, but nothing spectacular.
