Top, Best & Fun Rooftop Bars in Secaucus

"It’s right on the water, with spectacular views of the Manhattan skyline — is there anything better to take your breath away?. The food is modern American and unforgettable (a real treat, hence the price tag)."

"Although this city is certainly overrun with Michelin-star restaurants, there are only five three-Michelin-star restaurants in New York. All five are in Manhattan: Chef’s Table at Brooklyn Fare, Eleven Madison Park, Le Bernardin, Masa and Per Se. Each is exceptional in its own way, from the fine dining and fish-forward French fare at Le Bernardin to the exotic and esoteric dishes on the tasting menu found at the Chef’s Table at Brooklyn Fare."

"Le Bernardin has become a New York institution since the day it opened back in 1986. Since then the restaurant has evolved under the leadership of Maguy Le Coze and Chef Eric Ripert, and the tasting menus are elevated by the sophisticated wine pairing options. Le Bernardin at 155 West 51st Street"

"The interiors may have been subtly sexed-up for a 'younger clientele' (the stunning storm-themed triptych is by Brooklyn artist Ran Ortner), but triple-Michelin-starred Le Bernardin remains a luxe, fine-dining... Top ChoiceThai in SoHo & Chinatown"

"Take the L to Williamsburg and hop off at Bedford Ave and you’ll be just a couple blocks from Brooklyn Brewery. The craft brewer hosts a small batch tour that’s a must at just $18 for two hours of drinking and learning (the kind you'll actually enjoy). Book ahead—or prepare yourself for around-the-block lines if you wait—and you’ll get four very generous tastings (plus a glass that's yours to keep) of just-tapped varieties like their flagship Brooklyn Lager and farmhouse Sorachi Ace Saison, as well as seasonal pours like Brooklyn Summer Ale."

"Take a free guided tour of Williamsburg's Brooklyn Brewery and see where the borough's craft beer revolution started, this being one of the city's first post-prohibition craft breweries. Learn how the hops are made and the history of the company that started out as a 1-man home micro brewery before expanding into the success that you see today. You can also visit the taproom after the tour to try some of the craft beers but there is a..."

"Brooklyn Brewery started with a dream to return brewing to Brooklyn. Brooklyn used to powerhouse of American beer production, and clearly it is once again. “Our namesake borough runs on the creative energy of the many communities it contains."

"Restaurants American Tribeca. Choosing between Bubby’s sourdough and sour-cream pancakes is like a parent picking which child they love more. The griddle cakes are adapted from an heirloom recipe by famed food writer James Beard: Half the milk in Beard’s recipe is subbed out for delicately tangy Hudson Valley sour cream, yielding tender, golden pancakes with a supremely airy crumb."

"Okay, Bubby’s (for me at least) is an institution when it comes to getting brunch in New York. Whenever we go, we always try and grab a table for one of their brunch or lunches that are so tasty (and massive, too). With two locations in New York, it’s pretty easy to rock up and get a table (though, it’s always busy)."

"As of June 2021, the cafe at CFF is actually closed, but they plan to reopen it “within the next few months.” Please check back, as we plan to snooze the email from them and do a checkup before fall!. The original entry for this cafe is below. Newly opened and now known to the neighborhood as a good study, writing and working space, the Center for Fiction is located across from BAM and conveniently near Downtown Brooklyn."

"New hot bars and restaurants are popping up here every month, but old-time favorites, like the dive bar, Lady Jays, and the whiskey bar, Noorman’s Kil, continue to draw in their regular crowds. Late night partiers will enjoy the scene at Output Club that hosts many up-and-coming names as well as well-known acts. Good night’s always end at the stylish Brooklyn Bowl, a neighborhood bowling alley with really strong beer that stays open until at least 2 a.m."

"If there was an award for the hipster-seeming bar in the NYC area, then Lavender Lake is a strong contender. With a large outdoor patio, artisan pickled everything, and repurposed wood, this is an awesome bar for a first date, night out with friends, or pre-club hangout. While it can be tempting just to see it as a bar, you’ll also want to make an effort to try some of their small plates too."

"Stop in at the Lavender Lake for a beer on the patio or if you're looking for a more wholesome night, order an ice cream cone (chocolate lovers must order "It Came From the Gowanus") at Ample Hills Creamery's rooftop terrace. If you're still up for more nightlife, walk down to Smith Street. This street runs from Carroll Gardens to Cobble Hill and is packed with restaurants and bars."

"383 Carroll Street This awesome little restaurant along the edge of the Gowanus canal boasts a gorgeous backyard area with picnic tables and a small menu that appeals to kids, too. Grab a cocktail and a spot out back—currently limited to a 2-hour stay—to enjoy some fried chicken. For something lighter, we recommend the hummus or Brussels sprouts."

"For the early risers, the Happy Days Diner is a 24 hour diner located in the heart of Brooklyn Heights. This affordable menu with an extensive variety of options that can accommodate all kinds of eaters can satisfy everyone. The menu is filled with food that feels like it has been cooked at home—Belgian Waffles, sausage, eggs, bacon, has browns, eggs over easy, and so many more combinations."

"The royal coach diner is the best diner i've ever been to..and believe me i've been to a lot of diners. The service is very good."

"Constructed in 1766 on the corner of Broadway and Fulton Street, St. Paul’s Chapel of Trinity Church has a rich New York history as part of the Parish of Trinity Church Wall Street. George Washington was said to have worshipped in the chapel following his inauguration as first President of the United States. The Episcopal Church earned the moniker “The Little Chapel That Stood,” when it survived the 9/11 terrorist attacks completely unscathed."

"A quaint building, the St. Paul’s Chapel is more famous because it is a place where George Washington used to worship. And, during the 9/11 attacks, recovery workers received round-the-clock care here. It is also the oldest surviving church building in Manhattan."

"From humble beginnings, in a rented stable, the St. Jean Baptiste Roman Catholic Church, also known as the Église St-Jean-Baptiste, underwent a lot of expansion and rebuilding to become one of the most famous churches in the city. It is the only church in New York that has a dome. The beautiful design carved out of limestone is an extraordinary work of art."

"Located at the Lexington Avenue of Upper East side, very close to Central Park and Metropolitan Museum of Art, is this parish Church, which is said to be one of the most beautiful churches of NYC. The interior of the church is really very artistic. One can always plan for a quick visit to this Church, when they are at the Upper East Side of Manhattan."

"Another example of Roman Catholicism’s presence in NYC, this church on the Upper East Side was built with French-speaking Catholics in mind. Construction began in 1841 after a large congregation of French-speaking inhabitants were looking for a place to worship. Daily service is still given."

"The Garden of Love in Soho is back, with its 24,000 square-foot tropical garden. Feel like you’re in Tulum in this oasis filled with hundreds of 30-foot palm trees, lush plants and twin pergola dining decks. The space occupies an entire Hudson Square city block."

"Gran Eléctrica’s guacamole and margaritas are appealing at any time of year, but in the warmer months there’s even more incentive to take a trip to Dumbo. This market-driven Mexican restaurant’s garden oasis is outfitted with twinkling lights, ivy-covered walls and stunning views of the Brooklyn Bridge. Summertime is ideal for summer corn, ideally as part of the kitchen’s Esquites: New Jersey sweet corn charred over an open flame until blistered, then shaved into a bowl and mixed with chipotle mayonnaise, lime juice, Cotija cheese and pickled cilantro leaves."

"Gran Electrica is serving brunch and dinner in its charming Dumbo backyard, which is covered to protect against rain and snow. While perched under overhead heaters, order a few tacos to share and don’t skip the restaurant’s menu of tequila and mezcal cocktails. View this post on Instagram"

"One of their most popular items, the Chorizo con Papas is the perfect food to sober you back up after trying any of their 21 different tequilas."
