The Most Pleasant Outdoor Bars In NYC Right Now
"Jaffa isn’t the only outdoor terrace near the water in Williamsburg, but it’s probably the only one where you won’t rupture an eardrum or go home with the DJ. It’s a sprawling indoor-outdoor cocktail bar on the second floor of the Hoxton Hotel, from the team behind Laser Wolf and K’Far (which are also in the same hotel). The frozen cocktails and bucket of beer on the menu are a nod to the rooftop rager, but there’s no ear-splitting music—instead there's much better food on the short Israeli raw bar menu, like oysters with schug and scallops with shipka peppers.
