The 19 Best Rooftop Bars In NYC

"Vacations is the antidote to all of those Midtown rooftops with absolutely no chill. This neighborhoody Bushwick rooftop has everything you need to pass a few hours without the $30 cocktails and EDM soundtrack. They’ve got fruity cocktails (including frozen ones) for $12-$14, games and trivia nights, and a tasty pimento dip, among other great bar snacks. The fun playlists never get too loud, and there’s ample seating so you can walk in with a group. Come by during Happy Hour, or have your last beer of the night here before it closes at 4am.
