Great views but very busy, we didn’t get a table so sat on a bench which was fine. Good atmosphere as the weather was so nice. Would I come again? Not so sure, we queued to get in the bar and queued for drinks only stayed for one round, then went to a smaller rooftop bar around the corner.

I shouldnt have been surprised, but I was astounded at how beautiful a view this bar has of the city. The prices are very reasonable, we had cocktails and food all for under $100. The cocktails are pretty boozy too and who doesn't love that! The rooftop is heated so on decent night you can sit under the outdoor heaters, I was also able to take off my coat in February!! The igloos are lovely too. The staff were great too and great service at the bar. I Highly recommend this place. Add this to your list now!

This outside rooftop bar with igloos and fabulous views of Manhattan is an experience! The igloos can be reserved, or you can join with others. The igloos are heated. There are also plenty of tables if you want to sit outside, and there are blankets available. You can order food and drinks, the menu is typical pub food.. You are not there for the food but for the experience. You can order hot chocolate if you don't beer, by the way! It was very crowded the night we went, but that added to the festive atmosphere.

Ordered food and was given a number for the table, I informed them where I was sitting so they could find me easily. After around 45 minutes a member of staff approached us with a surprised look on his face, clearly surprised that he had found our food order number. He then brought us the food, it was cold and had clearly just been sitting in the kitchen for a while. I went to the bar and told them, they looked surprised, and asked me to bring them the food, they didn't suggest that a waiter came over. They said that they would get the chef to cook the food again. No apology, just made me feel like I was inconveniencing them. The waiter returned the food to the table about 5 minutes later, guess what, it was barely warm and they had just attempted to reheat it. I complained again and I asked why they had lied to me about replacing the food, I was then accused of having my food order number under my table so they couldn't find us when the food was ready. The staff were arguing with me and blaming me for there incompetence. I asked to see the Manager, which seemed to inflame the situation even further. Eventually I spoke to the Manager who was very apologetic and refunded us our food cost in drinks vouchers, which I was happy with. Really not a good experience when staff lie to you and accuse you pf causing the problem.

Well what can I say, was really looking forward to this experience but what a disappointment!!! Firstly on entry the downstairs door guy couldn’t have been any more rude if he tried, self opinionated upstart, not sure why he’s employed in that role as he doesn’t promote a good front for the business. Eventually got up to the rooftop to find our table wasn’t even ready and when we sat down it was dirty. When we eventually got food ordered it was less than appetising. Cold burnt fries and the chicken burger wasn’t much better. When the server asked us if everything was ok we told her about the substandard cold food, she was happy to change order but to be honest by this time we just wanted to finish our drinks and leave. Think they’d be better not selling food at this venue and just advertising it as a bar, ive enjoyed better food at McDonalds, we thought the guy that came out the lift we got in to go up was joking when he said ‘don’t do it it’s crap’ Even though you hv prepaid for this meal they still take your ID and bank card and hold it until you leave. Avoid at all cost, you will get a better meal from a street vendor. Xx

Big disappointment from my trip to NY!
1. I had made a reservation like a month before I went there and I had prepaid $240 for 4 persons ($50 minimum spend/person + tax). Please don't do that, it's a trap. You can easily go there even without reservation and just get whatever even under $50.
2. Doorman and waiters were RUDE!
3. Food and drinks are TERRIBLE! I ordered nachos and could not even eat 2 of them. Total waste of money.
4. The place looks and feels so cheap, totally different from the photos they publish. Around the rooftop there is a fence with greens and you cannot even see any view unless you go to a specific part of the rooftop where you can see the Empire State Building.
Would never go back!

Our food was an hour late. When we asked where it was they apologised and said they would provide our meals with no charge which was nice of them. We had prepaid 200 dollars which is non-refundable so we was advised to spend it on drinks which we did.
When I checked my bank the next day they had not removed the meal price. I sent a complaint to their accounts team which was dealt with promptly however I was told no refund as the food was ordered AFTER the complimentary food was offered (so we ate 2 meals each???)
I was also told there was no way I could prove this happened which I find a very poor way to deal with your customers.
So to summarise I purchased drinks with my prepayment credit which I never would have bought if I had to pay for the meals. A new approach to upselling? Probably not just a very poor approach to a customer complaint.

A terrible experience. Delayed to gain access to igloo booked. Staff were incredibly rude from start to finish from server to management. Unable to cancel and gain a refund. Told we need to leave on time despite delayed access. Worst experience in terms of service, cost and food. When food was delivered no cutlery arrived, we asked for some and advised ‘we will see what we can do’ we had to eat with our fingers !!

Visited here twice during our visit to NYC 8th-12th May 2022. First visit was on the 9th in mid afternoon and we visited again on the 11th in the night time after visiting top of the rock to watch the sunset. This bar was a recommendation to us however after our experience i can only mildly recommend it. Make sure you bring your ID.
Firstly the view, its fabulous, you can't deny it if your on the rooftop. Day or night its majestic. But that's the good stuff over.
First visit we only just about managed to get a seat on the rooftop. It was really busy. Bar service was dreadful. The servers at the bar where painfully slow and the drink prices are extortionate. For what you pay i would expect better service. The servers at the bar also have an annoying habit of serving other people before you even though you have clearly been waiting at the bar before the others that get served. Our first visit we put this down to the staff just having a bad day.
Second visit in the evening we didn't fare much better. Was easier for us to get a seat but again the service at the bar was utter tosh. The funny thing aswell is these people expect a tip ontop of a beer/drink costing over $9. Oh dear.
Staff clearly need additional training which seems to be a running theme on the reviews. Also more staff are clearly needed to man the bar.
I'd say its worth a visit but just stop for one drink (if you manage to get one) take your photos of the view/ absorb the view and then leave. Don't make it a session, and definitely don't stop for food either.

Thank you for visiting! Sorry you didn't like our very hard working staff who work their butts off to make sure you are having a cold beer on a sunny day.
We appreciate your visit.

This place is massively overrated due to the customer service, staff talk down to you like you are dirt. Very snidy and rude, some of the worst customer service I have ever experienced in my life. not even basic level of respect when speaking to customers, give this place a miss if you don’t want to be spoken to like you’re trash

The staff is trash, the food is trash, the drinks are trash. It’s a college bar on the roof of a building. Everything is overpriced. Do yourself a favor and come here to check it out, then immediately leave and go to a bar that doesn’t suck. Also, if you plan to go to any of their events and buy a ticket online just know your ticket doesn’t mean anything. On Halloween they didn’t put a limit on the tickets they sold because they’re cheap and the line was over 100 yards long with a two hour wait. They’re just cheap and trash. Don’t go here

Two weeks ago, my friends and I reserved an $800 12 person table for Saturday 8/29 to Celebrate Halloween here for the third year in a row. When we arrived for our reservation, we were told they had oversold the tables and didn't have any 12 person tables left inside. Their only solution offered at first was to seat us on the roof, which we refused because it was freezing to the point they were giving robes out up there (who wants to cover their costume with a robe??) and there was no DJ up there and we paid $800 to be where the DJ is. They came back and said all they had inside was tables for 4 people and that they could seat us there for now and move us when a bigger table became available. We asked if we would receive some sort of compensation for having a smaller table, like some money back or an extra bottle or something, and were told by the manager in a very rude and annoyed tone " You can either take the 4 person table, or I can give you a full refund and you can leave". It was 11pm on Halloween weekend, they know we can't get a table anywhere else at that point which is unfair considering we planned this 2 weeks ahead. Anyways, We gave the 4 person table a chance, hoping they would keep their promise to move us ASAP. Our table was in a busy walkway that obviously wasn't made to house 12 people. We couldn't dance without people passing by bumping into us and spilling our drinks on us. We paid $800 to avoid having strangers on top of us and had to deal with that all night. We were never moved to a bigger table despite staying until almost 3AM.
We were faithful customers here for years, celebrating various Holloweens and Birthdays here and the way we were treated left a sour taste in our mouths and unfortunately we will not be returning.
We are still fighting for some sort of compensation considering we paid for something we did not receive. My friend commented on their instagram and they deleted her comment without bothering to reach out. Not to mention, when we were trying to handle the table situation at the hostess stand, my friend and I were physically moved out of the way by two angry men who were in a similar situation as us and demanded they be helped first even though we were there first. The staff did nothing about the obviously already drunk men putting hands on us and shoving us out of the front of the hostess stand, and proceeded to help them while the men blocked our access to the hostess stand. We did not make more of a fuss about this situation for fear for being wrongfully kicked out after working so hard to plan this night. Beware when making plans here.

Was really looking forward to this experience for our last night in NYC. I was a little surprised to find it was not as refined as it promised to be and was essentially a self service snack bar on a roof top. We got rude staff, who then expect a tip for simply opening and giving you a bottle of over priced Corona ($9) through a serving hatch. Quite what part of this Souless exchange deserves a tip I’m not sure. As such I never leave one on that basis, unless I think the Server has warranted it, with some kind of nicety. I was however prompted by the gentleman serving me that tips are not included in the bill and demanded I add one prior to payment!! In my world tips are not to be expected but earnt and certainly not requested. We didn’t stay long as a result.

Been a few years ago on holiday but just back and what a difference ! Lots of people, girl said you have to find a place to sit ??? Then she says you go to the bar and order your drinks and food ! I went up, not wearing my glasses paid for a raspberry mojito and a peach Bellini as well as chicken strips with a sauce and a chicken burger ! She asked me to confirm and i pressed continue, then told me to collect my food at another part ! I then asked her for a receipt and she said email or text. I got it by email and she had charged me 20% tip ! Never asked me or anything, for mediocre food (which we left most of) and watered down drinks, RIP-OFF ! I would never waste my time here again or recommend! Left after 45 minutes !! Better rooftop bars AVOID THIS ONE !

Had the best time New Year’s Eve here. We booked a table for 2 inside which I’d recommend instead of the rooftop as the party is inside.
They had a Dj a guy playing the saxophone free bar all night bottles of champagne to the table & mini bites to eat all night.
Me and my partner had a fabulous time would highly recommend. We still got to go on the roof and look at the view whenever we wanted.
Great night, best New Year’s Eve yet!!
