"While Elsie Rooftop is only about a block away from Times Square, the space feels more like a 1920s penthouse than a deserted tourist trap. This bar has golden chandeliers and a big wraparound terrace with sectional couches and string-lit shrubbery, but somehow it doesn’t feel too stuffy. You might see people in boxy dark blazers drinking champagne here, but more than likely, others will just be hanging out and sharing sangria pitchers. Stop by Elsie at 5pm on a Friday to catch the sunset, or do some day drinking from 1-10pm on Saturday or Sunday." - nikko duren
