Wonderful skyline views with some downstairs large window seating for the nastier weather. You have your choice of dinning or seat yourself bar only.
Brian WellsSeptember 11, 2011
Go here for brunch and enjoy the cool, open air and scenic Manhattan skyline from the rooftop. Come back at night for the lively crowd. The drinks are expensive but the atmosphere can be electric.

Nice view at night. The atmosphere is a bit cheesy "made for masses". Have a drink there and move on or before going home ✌🏻💤

With amazing views of the Empire State building, this bar offers great music, an eclectic crowd and a a great rooftop view for the warmer weather!

Best time to go here is sunset. Have a drink and watch the Empire State Building and the NY skyline while the light is changing slowly.

The view is definitely awesome. They have the igloos to accommodate visitors for free and they lend coats too! Even though its really cold out in the roof, they have heaters too!

The raspberry mojito is amazing, made with real fruit. It's a must have on a summer evening taking in the views

Nice view of the Empire State Building and cool place to chill after a long day. The cocktail list has nothing special.. I tried the white sangria which was ok!
Naty GAugust 19, 2018

Largest rooftop bar in New York City. Spectacular head-on look at the Empire State, Chrysler, NYLife ,and Met Life buildings. Off into the distance, you can see the Statue of Liberty.Open year-round.

Very touristy. Personally not my kind of place but it is nice to bring guests up here to show the beautiful New York skyline
Sue BridgesAugust 13, 2013
Great view, friendly staff and yummy drinks. Our server Angelica was adorable and so nice! We had a great time and will definitely be back on our next visit.
David Fajardo PulidoJune 11, 2018
Be sure to get at least 2 hours before sunset, otherwise you won’t have a good table. Also, the level below the rooftop was almost empty, that’s another option to have great views of the Empire State
Carina 💖October 20, 2014
The best view you could have in New York. There's nothing comparable to this. They have very good cocktails. The crab cake is perfect
JenJuly 13, 2017
Been here 10+ times
Great view of the Empire State Building on the rooftop! Brunch buffet is worth the reasonable price of $30.
Perine WeilandMay 27, 2015
Great view on the Empire State Building. I went there in the Winter and they had plaids and bathrobe for visitors to keep warm! Great apple ciders too !
Brian PhillipsSeptember 29, 2013
One of the douchey-ish places I have been to in NYC! If it wasn't for friends visiting out of town for the view I wouldn't step foot on the block! Wow this is my first "leave tip"

Amazing Rooftop bar with fantastic views of the NYC skyline. Upscale decor, lots of patio bars and beautiful people. One con: Beer selection is limited to Amstel, Heineken, Stella and one other beer.
michael geezerFebruary 24, 2011
What a spectacular place to have a stylish NYC night out. The roof deck of this bar is ENORMOUS and worth it for the views you have a direct view of the empire state building. I recommend you sit on

Evan ChenJuly 27, 2014
Amazing view of New York City Skyline and the Empire State Building. Drinks are really good too!
Shawn ThorntonApril 1, 2016
Don't worry about going on a chilly day/night. They provide warm robes to chill in while having your favorite drink with a view to love.
Darren DegiorgioJuly 3, 2018
Great views!! We went when there was a private party so it was pretty hectic. They need more people working the bar!
Sarah SMay 2, 2014
Aside from the killer view, the best part about this place was the traffic jam that occurs when everyone stops at the rooftop entrance to take their official Instagram of the skyline.
JarrodOctober 29, 2013
Great views. Make sure you dress warm if it's brisk outside. They have blankets to get under, but still it's quite chilly. That said, get there just before sunset and watch the city change.
Chris MetzAugust 11, 2014
The view is amazing, great atmosphere. Perfect spot to meet up with friends in the city.
Lears FoolNovember 23, 2015
All about the view. But you can even enjoy on a chilly night, thanks to the heat lamps, and not having to wait for service.
Grégory Lemaire Van H.February 11, 2014
Exclusive clubbing, awesome view inside and outside. One of the best paces i've been to!
Alex AlbertMay 4, 2018
The guys are a bit too touchy touchy feely BUT the music was amazing. The drinks were normal but triple the price. The rooftop was the highlight of course and that’s free
Bayan BamukhayyarNovember 26, 2016
Amazing views of the empire states building - a good time but mainly full of tourists.
Jacqueline OliverioDecember 31, 2012
Love the Red snuggle robes for winter weather. Best view in ths city! Recommend the blueberry lychee martini! I <3 NY
Sebastian GrippoFebruary 9, 2016
This lounge has the best view of NYC, it is a great place to hang out. If you go to Manhattan this place is a must
Josh CollinsApril 14, 2014
Amazing view. Free to get in. Drinks were pricey, but you're paying for the view. Bartenders use the jigger / pony devoutly, so don't hope for a heavy-handed pour
Kevin SetoDecember 30, 2017
Check out the heated rooftop igloos in the winter. Grab a boozy hot chocolate or apple cider and enjoy the view.
Tamika JOctober 1, 2017
The crowd is mainly tourist and the outdoor picnic furniture. The people only drank beer and water. I’m use to the past rooftop experience with top shelf liquor and bottle service. Not going back!

230 boasts one of the city's most 'lavish' and amazing vistas. Don't just take our word for it! Malaysian Shrimp Salad is to die for!! It's grilled pork, scallion, green mango and papaya. It's delish!

I normally don’t rate something unless it was poor (shame on me), but a gentleman named Jonathan went above and beyond at the comedy show last night. I saw many people complimenting him. A++
Sonya RytovaDecember 15, 2015
Beautiful view! Cool music)! big buffet!!!) Lovely place!)
Bebo GonzálezMay 8, 2012
Open Rooftop Area and a 1st floor dance floor. All you need for an amazing night. * Used to be a kept secret…. now be ready to have some $$ on hand to get in.. or avoid the line.
Hartje UtrechtMarch 7, 2015
I liked this rooftop bar! Yes, the drinks are expensive and the service isn't that great. But the view was amazing and on cold days they have heaters and fleece snuggies.
Nazan OsmanoğluNovember 12, 2017
My best place in Manhattan at night. High quality and convenient prices.
Natalia BakerOctober 14, 2014
A touch touristy and overpriced to get up there (girls get cheaper entry), but worth the views of Empire State while having a drink. Indoor bar available if it's cold.
Lucy MariaJuly 15, 2022
Beautiful views and overall fun spot for brunch and late night! Always have a great time here!
Stavria K.August 1, 2015
Amazing view, plain cocktails with some kitch details in the design. Not unexpected as tourists love that place!
Alper BahçekapılıSeptember 20, 2016
A must see view of Manhattan. Moderately priced. If it's on your way, just have a quick drink.
Chrissy KMay 26, 2016
There is a rooftop and a on indoor lounge. Great decor in the lounge. Great views
ArnoldSeptember 9, 2011
One of the best views of the city! Huge outdoor patio with lots of beautiful people! But look out for the girl that wants your money in the form of a big tip, after they serviced you! ;)
BravoNovember 19, 2010
The best views of the city. Huge outdoor patio with lots of beautiful people. There are many patio bars so you don't have to go inside to get a drink. -Ed Cotton, Top Chef
