10 Rooftop Bars in NYC for Day Drinking

"During the summer months, the popular second floor bar at the Sixty LES Hotel transforms into a bonafide kanpai garden, flush with greenery, bamboo and Buddhas. The 1,650-square-feet of communal tables welcome guests with frozen Kirin Ichiban, boozy popsicles in flavors like mint julep and bourbon-choco-banana, and a menu of tacos, handrolls and other Japanese street food-inspired small bites. The beer list features cult favorites like the Hitachino White Ale from Japan, the Sorachi Ace from Brooklyn Brewery and Evil Twin’s “Hipster” pale ale. And no summer outing is complete without frosé—they’ve got that here, too." - Marguerite Imbert
