On the nose the summer, so very soon the merciless heat will make us to escape from the stuffy rooms in a cozy summer porch… and not only. In the end, what could be better than enjoying delicious drinks and a light breeze, sitting at the bar on the roof?
Fortunately, we know a few places that are ideal for this. So pay attention to the best new York rooftop bars!
Pod 39
The Pod Hotel
Midtown East
A welcoming atmosphere and colorful Latin decor (in combination with Latin American cocktails) this beautiful place opposite the Empire state building will allow you to break away from the daily worries and be transported from bustling Big Apple on a noisy street fair.
Sure to come back here with friends to enjoy a classic Margarita, or take a chance and try it Upside Down with rum and pineapple. The choice is yours.
Northern Territory
Greenpoint
In this charming Australian restaurant the main thing is to find the place. What will you choose: to sit at the bar, reminiscent of a small Bungalow (not every bar on the roof meet), or settle for a corner table to enjoy the amazing view of the Manhattan skyline?

Flatiron
We won’t lie: from the Elevator, which you there have to get, you may develop claustrophobia, and when you bring your order — better to stick to the glass with both hands and mentally prepare yourself for a creepy flea market.
But honestly, all this does not matter when on one side you have views of the Empire state building, with another on the Flatiron building, and the size of the wine list can impress even the most fastidious critic. And that’s not to mention the delicious home-ele in stock and very friendly staff.
Gallow Green
McKittrick Hotel
Chelsea
The bar on the roof of the McKittrick Hotel atmosphere is simply incredible atmosphere. It’s there in the romantic lighting, abundance of flowers, transforming it into a small magical garden or a mysterious calming atmosphere, but the fact remains: the best place to spend the evening in pleasant company.
Jane Hotel

West Village
To visit this newly opened bar is the perfect way to go back. Elegant oak bar and patio in a nautical style and create incredible relaxing atmosphere, but instead to sit, you’d better take your signature Daiquiri «Hemingway» and enjoy views of the Hudson river.
The Roof at Park South

Flatiron
Tired of the usual bars on the roof? Well, here is the solution: this is not like any other. Warm up by the fire with a Sazerac, order the Tiki cocktail, or enjoy the incomparable Pina-coladas.
And, to be honest, some of the local bartenders had worked in such posh places as The NoMad, so your glass is definitely in good hands, although, to be fair, the prices sometimes come across very impressive ($30 for a Martini, decorated with black caviar, it is not a joke).
Night of Joy
Williamsburg
To create a cozy atmosphere of a secluded place here contribute to green spaces, protecting visitors from the noise of the street walls — and of course good old happy hours. Every day from 17.00 to 20.00 all specialty drinks, including frozen margaritas will cost you only $ 6.
The Ides
Williamsburg
Here it is pleasant to sit in the rooftop bar, while enjoying one of the best views of Manhattan in the city, and relax in the bar under the roof — a huge range of classic drinks guarantees enjoyable pastime.

Hell’s Kitchen
It is not only one of the newest rooftop bars in the city, but the largest (7,000 square feet). Bright decor, a riot of colors and delicious cocktails will not leave you indifferent. And $ 23 for a cocktail of three is literally a gift!
By the way, be sure to try a Tropical Triple (a mix of Pina colada and a Tiki cocktail, served in a spectacular glass pineapple cut core).
Westlight

Westlight, perched above williamsburgs hotel William Vale, pleases not only stunning views of the city and great cocktails from Anne Robinson (PDT, Booker & Dax). What could be better than a brand New Kind of Kick, on the basis Sousa, Fernet, horchata and Scotch, in combination with tacos, duck carnitas or delicious Burger from chef Andrew Carmellini? Is that two burgers instead of one.
The Heights

Chef Dale Tald and Three Kings Group has created the perfect complement to the NoMad hotel Arlo: is worth a look if only for the stunning views of the Empire state building and refreshing summer cocktails… or for the sake of peerless Detroit pizza, which is prepared Massoni at the bottom.
