Rooftop bar with stunning skyline views, pool, DJ, and creative cocktails
"Mr. Purple is consistently busy with friend groups and New York singles mingling, dancing, and ruling over the Lower East Side. The rooftop bar and restaurant offers everything from bottle service to an $85 chicken tender platter for when late-night cravings hit. Among its Ketel One cocktails is a purple take on the cosmo, made with butterfly pea syrup, cranberry and lime juice, and orange liqueur." - Rebecca Strassberg
"The Deal: $70 For Two Hours Of Beer/Wine, $10 For Each Additional Hour; $85 For Two Hours Of Liquor/Beer/Wine, $15 For Each Additional Hour; $100 For Two Hours Of Top-Shelf Liquor/Beer/Wine, $20 For Each Additional Hour If you want to go all-out and celebrate your birthday with 100 of your very best friends, try this always-packed rooftop bar on the Lower East Side. The whole space fits up to 450 people, but you can always book the terrace that fits 25 people seated or 40 standing. With its swimming pool and views of Lower Manhattan, this definitely isn’t a low-key option, but maybe you need your 30th birthday to feel like a Grammys afterparty." - hannah albertine, bryan kim
"If you want to go someplace that feels a lot more upscale than The Frying Pan, but is still a crowded outdoor bar full of people who will probably end the night at Pianos or Flower Shop, check out Mr Purple. It definitely has an LES party scene, but it’s also on the roof of a nice hotel, so you can drink a cold brew martini on a couch on the terrace, or jump into the pool if you need to cool off." - matt tervooren
"On Saturday and Sunday, hotel guests can use the pool on a complimentary basis from 9:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Those who aren’t staying at the hotel can make reservations online with a $150 per person food and drink minimum, as well as a $50 per person pool fee." - Eater Staff
"This 15th floor bar of the Hotel Indigo Lower East Side lets you sip a cocktail by the pool on a weekday. The menu includes guacamole with blue corn tortilla chips, an aged Gruyère and smoked mozzarella grilled cheese, and a double patty cheeseburger." - Marguerite Imbert
