Bryant Park Café

I must say the staff here are exceptional, from the moment you’re greeted from the host to the server who takes care of you bravo to the whole staff! The food here is good pretty standard not gonna win any awards but the area is a bit Of a dead Zone so what can ya do.! My server was great, the kitchen messed up my shrimp tacos (was requested to be grilled but came out fried) all good I ate them anyways. But she (my server) felt a bit bad even though wasn’t her fault and gave me a complimentary glass of wine. Will return when I’m in the hood!

We were at the Maker's Market and decided to eat lunch at the Cafe. We were seated immediately. Staff was very friendly. Service by Tiffany was awesome. She was attentive and came around to check often. Water was filled as needed. I shared a Jerusalem platter and quesadilla with my cousin. The hummus and pita were delicious and filling. The quesadilla was filled with cheese and great also. We did not leave hungry. And, the prices were not unreasonable, especially for the location. While the proximity to the traffic of 40th st made for a loud distraction, that is the "charm" of the city. We would 100% visit again.

Lovely venue with great outdoors dining (covered and uncovered). Great menu selection, however the lunch menus felt more like a dinner menu but the food was delicious. Tad pricey for lunch, so be ready for that. On a nice day, it's a great place to go and enjoy the weather and have a nice meal. Was impressed how fast the food was served.

I was there first time, it was great food and atmosphere!! But waiter was with no mood.

After touring the New York Public Library (a must-see!!!), my guest & I grabbed lunch at Bryant Park Café. Outside seating was shaded with great views of the park & passers-by. Our server was courteous, efficient & attentive. I really enjoyed the BBQ Pork Slider with fries. While lunch prices were high (even for New York), I figure you're paying for the view & ambiance. And as a tourist, you're going to splurge anyway. So yes, I'd eat here again.

Best place in midtown to sit outside. Great drinks and food.

A great afternoon spot to enjoy good food and great company. We ordered a few items off their dessert menu and were happy with the variety of sweet treats. A light, tropical carrot cake was the tables favorite. The sorbets had big refreshing flavors. The chocolate cake was dense and could have use more of the mousse. It was wonderful to people watch and enjoy the sun and shade.

Had a quick rest at Bryant Park Cafe on our way to Times Square. We got some sorbet and ice cream refreshments. Cool and relax environment. The bartender was nice and even treated us extra water.
