There are so many rooftop bars in NYC that claim to have the best view, but which ones really do? In this video, I visit the six top-rated rooftop bars in the city and discover which one is the best. All of the bars in this video fit three characteristics:
1) An epic view
2) Highly rated/reviewed
3) Excellent drinks

I'm coming to NYC in 2 weeks and I've been binge watching your New York videos.
I love that! Have an amazing time in NYC!
@@SarahFunky Thank you!
Better than TV
Love your NY videos!! I just downloaded your 7 day itinerary and I’m getting super excited about my October NY visit.
Thank you for all the Valuable info!
I just came back from my vacation in New York and I’m still watching your videos lol! Thank you for your content!
Tank you so much Sarah for your videos! You are my favorite UA-cam new yorker to watch! Aaaaaaaannnndddd this was a video that i was waiting so much specialy from you! Hope to bump you next May!
Girl I love this video
simple & loved those informative small cards
This is another video which adds adresses to my list for my travel to NYC in August !
Great! I'm so happy to help!
As always loved the video!! You're so awesome! 👏😎🙌🔥
Thank you so much!
Loved these
Love your video, I’ve been to The Skylark and the place is awesome! I wanna go back again.
I really loved refinery rooftop, it's a cool casual bar, not too bougie. Thanks for the video, the video was shot beautifully, very ecstatically pleasing.
Thank you so much!
Just turned 21. Thank you
Happy Birthday!
Another great brilliant video & you're looking absolutely sensational Sarah
I'm glad you loved it Greg. Thank you! :)
Great list. I’d add a few more, but this is a solid group. The prices were really helpful!👌🏻👌🏻 Visiting from Argentina in a few months, hope I get to check out some of these!
Perfect timing!! Visiting NYC next month ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you for making such a great video.
I'm glad you loved it Kevin O'Malley. I hope you subscribed (if you haven't already)! Thank you! :)
Only Rooftop Bar experience I've had in NYC was Eataly's in The Flat Iron district 😎 I really enjoy your videos👏👏 They are Very informative, makes me want to jump on a plane and come back to the City ❤
We are flying from L.A to N.Y next week. Going to check out one of these bars. Thanks!
thanks for your update..You are the best
Thank you! I hope you subscribed (if you haven't already)! 😊
LOVE love love love Westlight
Thanks for the great hint! 🍸
All your videos are great, but this one is really nice , great images. thank you¡¡¡ :-)
It would be great if one day you make a video dedicated to revolving restaurants, I do not know if there are many in New York City but I am curious. Greetings.
You’re the best!!!! TY
You already know which ones are my favorites... The ones with food!!
Typical lol
Nice video!!! Lately I noticed there isn't a single good video in UA-cam explaining the perplexing Subway of NYC. So I was hoping you could do a video about it in simple and sweet form explaining the notation and working of it.
A subway video explaining the number, color and letter notations in simple way. Cause that's the one thing people will use most, and get confused the most!
That is a great idea! I'll do that!
This vid would have been helpful a month ago for my NYC trip. But I'll definitely use it for my next trip! Thanks
Yes, use it next time!
*sings in high pitch* obseesseedd with your channel. you Deliver ill continue to share your videos cuz I need your channel to be know👏🏽
Thank you so much! That means a lot!
Nice views! Thank You so much for Your perfect video! As of my own bar experience glass of any cocktail consists of 80% of ice ( just frozen water 😊 - main profit key - fits to any cocktail ) 15% of middle price canned juice and only few spoons of strong alcohol... 😊 So it doesn't matter how much You pay, You'll get a lot of ice!😊
Up on 20 Rooftop bar at The Hyatt Herald Square is awesome! Literally right in front of the Empire State Building!
Thanks Sarah for the great video. Do you know any posh, luxurious rooftop with NYC skyline view for 40th birthday in NYC?
Thank you for alerting me to bring my own plastic straw so I can enjoy whatever drink I get
I just got back from my 1st trip to NY & had the MOST fabulous time hanging out at 2 rooftop bars! I must say, rooftop bars seem to be the thing in NYC. My places were Magic Hour at the Moxy & the Monarch. I spotted a rooftop on the Brooklyn waterfront when I walked the Brooklyn Bridge, but didn't have time to get over there. Which one is that, most likely? Harriet's?
Loved the views from Harriet’s. Looks like a very cool place to be. Thanks for the tips. Love all of your videos. Will make it to NYC one day. On my husband and I bucket list. Thanks from Louisiana!
Yes, Harriet's views are stunning. I think they probably have the best views out of all of the bars (in my opinion). I hope you get to NYC soon!
Me too! It would be amazing to have you as a tour guide! Thanks for the many NYC videos!
@@averyhebert335 Hopefully someday we can make that happen!
She drank a bit too much hahaha loving it
thanks for you tips
I'm glad you loved it Raul Zuñiga. I hope you subscribed (if you haven't already)! Thank you! :)
Coming to NY second week in august and your videos are really helping me get to know my way around . Thanks
I'm so happy to help! Thank you! I hope to see you on a tour 😊
@@SarahFunky Disappointed to see you only do tours on Fridays.
@@lesliegraham8478 I do private tours any day of the week! My secrets of New York tour is the only one that is Fridays only.
Nice video
Awesome video and awesome city! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you! I hope you subscribed!
Of course I did. I recently found your channel. I really like your content!
@@360Tour Yay!
Thank you for so much great info! I'm heavy into planning our upcoming trip and would love to include some rooftop dining, but am traveling with my teen son, so it can't be a bar. What are some great dining spots that a teen would enjoy as well as old mom?!
when i saw your video first, i thought it was a commercial for 'crest white' and i was wondering when the actual video would start
🔥🔥🔥
Plush rooftop is a personal favorite!
Never heard of that one!
Sarah, just like being in new york, regards from ireland
6:40 only reason to go to Jersey Exchange place is definitely #1 because of the price year round access and the views then Refinery because I like to eat when I get drunk
Your one of my favorite youtubers you are so fun to watch and your beautiful
Aw, thanks so much Troy!
@@SarahFunky I'm coming for a visit in early September your channel has been a huge help
@@DANISEVIL I'm so happy to help. Thank you!
The Marriott Vacation Club Pulse Rooftop Bar on 37th street also has an amaaaaaazjng view of the Empire State Building
So cool! I want to check them all out! There's also CitizenM Bowery rooftop bar called "CloudM"
Looks nice! I haven't been to that one before!
I'm interested in more luxury travel tips in NYC!
Fantastic
Thank you!
Wow! What an incredible list of rooftop bars! Do any of these have cover charges?
None do! Thank you :)
I think I like the refinery's vibe better than Skylark but they are both beautiful. But any rooftop bar is worth checking out in my opinion!
Hello from Dallas~~~~~~ Skylark!!!!!!!!!!!!
Do you know if you can sit outdoors in November as well? or the sitting is only inside?
We will be going to NYC in two weeks and we want to go to all those places! Is there a cover charge to enter the place?
Hi Sarah ! Traveling to NYC this Nov 🙌🏽 best rooftop/lounges to meet single women ? Thanks!
Where do I purchase the New Year’s Eve tickets from The Skylark? I went onto their website, but did not see much. Thanks in advance!
I just back from NYC. I did not get a chance to visit any bars on this list but Press Lounge has excellent views of the city.
Nice! I never heard of that one!
Hello! I was wondering if there’s anyway I can travel to Canada from NY in cheap? I looked at the bus fares but they were too expensive! I wanted to visit the Niagra falls... plz lemme know if you have a way for me and my family.
i have booked my flight to nyc for octobre 2020 and still hope to get there.
I think everything will be a lot better by October! I hope to see you on a tour!
Loved the video, thanks Sara. Just wanted to ask whether you have to reserve for these bars apart from the one you already mentioned.
I always get them at The Skylark because I like to be guaranteed a seat but other than that you can walk into most places.
Awesome video. What is the easiest way to get to the exchange place bar in Jersey City? Thanks.
You can take the NJ Transit. Also, if you google the directions they will give you a step by step guide on how to get there using NJ Transit. It is very easy!
I want to visit the skylark.... will be there in October!
You should do it!
Can you do rooftop bars in January???
The Jane Hotel, Meatpacking District.
Hey Sarah! AMAZING video! SO many interesting things to see. I will definitely visit these bars. My questions is: Do these bars require reservation? And what time of the day is best to visit? I mean because of the crowds and stuff. My best!
Most of them do not require a reservation. I normally go earlier though. I think it depends on the bar and the time you want to go. My best advice is to email/call them and tell them what you're interested in. Then they can let you know for sure :)
Nice videos NYC 👌👌👌👍👍👍👍👌👌👌👍👍👍👍👍
do you need to be 18+ to enter all these rooftop bars? pls answer
Thanks a lot. I love you.
I'm glad you loved it Jairo mind. I hope you subscribed (if you haven't already)! Thank you! :)
@@SarahFunky I did seven months ago. :-))) Thanks for your feedback.
@@jairosantos5821 Thank you!
Hi do I have to book these rooftop bars
hey, are there any rooftop bars for people under 21?
Heading to the met today so I’m going to their rooftop bar too today 💕
That is a great one too!
Thank you for your videos always a big fan I’m staying till Friday morning would love to meet you ❤️
Join my tour this Friday morning! That would be the perfect opportunity 😊 bit.ly/SecretsOfNYCTour
Are any of these roof top bars even open?
It must have been fun to film this video
It sure was haha
Great video. Oh and can you start a b channel with nothing but videos of you walking in slow motion? Asking for a friend.
LMAO I don't know how much demand that one would have haha
The Harriet's rooftop is offering a very nice view, but you will have to pay for it ! 20$ US per person to get the chance to go at the rooftop, then you take 2 beer another 25$ US which include the tip to the barman and if you want a better view which offer also a better seating, than sitting on big square logs, you must order at least 75$ US of consommation, so this view is expensive, but it is outstanding so just be prepared! And also there are no happy hour!
What is the song playing at background at 6:02 mins and 6:43 mins
This is a great idea but it won't work if you have kids. Any way around this?
Can you recommend a list for seasonal bars and or seasonal rooftop bars? I travel to NYC during the fall season..just because its more affordable to travel...thoughts?
Most of these are great year long because they have indoor seating too!
also the refinery rooftop!!!
Make sure you save time for food there. It is great!
I Miss the Knickerbocker Hotel Rolf top bar on Times Square
That is a good one too 😍
@@SarahFunky i had my wedding up there - awesome
Ok, so me and my wife don't drink, and we really want to go to a rooftop, will be ok not to drink alcohol? I feel like i'm gonna be judged somehow
So here is not a secret, sarah loves bacardi in her cocktails. 😆
It is true!
@@SarahFunky well, that makes 2 of us. I even sometimes to much 🤣🤣🤣🎉 🙌
I am headed to NY next week with my daughter. Can I bring her on any of these rooftops? Want to have a rooftop dinner with her she is 18
Most of these rooftops don't have food but for what you're looking for I would recommend Refinery Rooftop. I believe if she is with you she can come in but I would email/call them and check. I know for a fact that at Westlight you can bring underage people as long as someone is with them that is 21. However, Westlight doesn't have dinner.
She didnt like the green healthy drink 😂
Can i come with kids?
The skylark reservations only go to October on their website 🧐 I need Nye details
You can see all the details here: theskylarknyc.com/sites/theskylarknyc/files/skylark_nye2019_email_sept10.pdf
No Yotel? Biggest rooftop bar in the city?
All of these Rooftop's are at age 21?
Were you slurring a little at the Skylark?
No lol I hadn't drank anything before filming that.
I have no problem spending money on booze and food (Average 20k a year)but even I am not paying $27.00 and up for drinks.
I agree! lol
Alcohol is bad for you and so are bars. Leaves emptiness inside your heart And you feel like a loser, darkness
Newyork again great
I'm glad you loved it Fevzi Aslan. I hope you subscribed (if you haven't already)! Thank you! :)
@@SarahFunky I have subscribed now, I know very little english..
(Google translate) ☺😔
You and newyork fantastic beautiful thanks you
@@fevziaslan4193 Thank you for subscribing! I'm sure these videos can help you learn a little English if you would like to!
@@SarahFunky love your videos hopefully you will learn english! :) thank you so much 🌷
Sarah is getting funkin’ drunk! 😝
What about Jimmy @ the James?
I like them but I like these ones more :)
So I am staying there over Labor day weekend is it worth going to
I love all of Sarah videos but these locations are not for most ppl. $13 for a single beer? I wouldn't go somewhere like that even if I were a millionaire. That's unacceptable just to sit on a rooftop and hang out. Westlight however looks good. I like 230 Fifth and The Williamsburg Hotel too.
I love your channel! Def a new subscriber! Do you have Instagram? Would love to keep in touch and connect on things to do in nyc and abroad! Im
Thank you! Yes I do. It is @sarahfunky ❤
I love your black dress it's so sensual. 💕
I’m not drinker very sad
Wow Sarah you are looking very nice beautiful in all of the dresses as well as your hair body makeup nail polish eyelashes lipstick eyes skin smile earrings are quite pretty amazing and fantastic New York Cities Rooftops well done 😊😊❤️❤️
Thank you so much!
You are welcome sarah 😊😊❤️❤️
