"Aircraft carriers are very large. While that’s both obvious and seemingly irrelevant, it’s worth mentioning here because it explains how this outdoor bar at the West Harlem Piers has 4,000 square feet of outdoor space spread across multiple decks. With views of the west side of Manhattan, Jersey, and the Hudson River up to the GW Bridge, it’s a great spot to day drink with a group. But make sure to try some bar food while you’re here, especially the peppery, perfectly charred cheeseburger, and the crinkle cut fries with Cajun seasoning and spicy mayo." - Matt Tervooren
