Rooftop bars are New York's signature feature, but this metropolis' signature feature is invariably accompanied by crowds and lines. Fortunately, in addition to Le Bain and Mr. Purple has plenty of other rooftop bar options. We've selected a few for you where you won't have to queue outside like you're about to buy a lawnmower on Black Friday. So, here are 6 rooftop bars where you don't have to stand in a huge queue to get in. infatuation.
daintree
Daintree is a very pretty rooftop lounge, but that's where the benefits end. You will see an impressive view of the city through a glass wall. The terrace is a bit small and shabby, but it makes you feel right at home (if you've ever lived across from the Empire State Building). But we would still prefer this roof top to many others in the area because of the martini cocktail menu and superb entrees like whipped ricotta focaccia and crispy halloumi laffa.
5 O'clock Somewhere
5 O'Clock Somewhere is a great rooftop bar with a good atmosphere and lots of fresh air. The menu here is a bit over the top (truffle, lots of truffle). At the same time, you can order a huge drink of bright color with an umbrella in it and make beautiful Instagram photos.

Versa
Everywhere you look in this bar on the fifth floor of the Renaissance New York Midtown hotel, there are nooks and crannies where you can sit and relax. This establishment has an indoor area with plenty of seating that flows into an even larger open space with a retractable roof and a terrace filled with tourists admiring views of Penn Plaza and the Empire State Building. There are several bars where you can order drinks and the food is surprisingly decent.
Social Drink and Food
Social Drink and Food is a downtown rooftop bar that looks like a sophisticated hostel. The bar is huge, but the charms of this place do not end there. On any given day, they can set up foosball tables, a popcorn machine or a rooftop movie screen at night on the spacious outdoor terrace. It's also a great place to go relax with colleagues after work.
The Kimberly Hotel
Just a few years ago, there were queues here. The atmosphere is a little quieter now, and the place fills up the most at brunch time. Come here for a drink and New York City views in a relaxed, casual setting. The only queue you will have to deal with is the queue for the toilet. The wait may be long.
CloudM Rooftop Bar
CitizenM is a large hotel on the Lower East Side that looks like a bank or a supervillain's lair. On top of this large, corporate building, you'll find a rooftop named CloudM. This rooftop has a bar, cafe, loads of sofas, floor-to-ceiling windows, and a large open space overlooking downtown. CloudM isn't the coolest rooftop in town, but it's a great place to grab a few drinks and take in the view. This place is also suitable for a casual meeting with a couple of clients.
