Sarah Funk Hi Sarah really enjoying your videos. Coming to NYC in Oct (1st time) to celebrate 50th birthday, some of my party smoke, do you know of any roof top bars that allow this? Thank you
I should move there money is no option I could live here I live in Kenosha Wisconsin and even thoe I love the gay community here seems like man in NYC are more into who u are and not what u look like i will be moving in Dec what is christmas like can't wait to see Central Park in the winter time
This was supposed to be an off day for me but watching your video, I felt motivated to make myself an old fashioned. Cheers! P.S. These are nice contemporary watering holes, but have you done the many historic saloons like the White Horse Tavern and Pete's Tavern?
Among other vlogs about NYC, this channel gives an honest review about places and things to do in NYC for a fact that it was from a real New Yorker! This makes me wanna go even more in the Big Apple. Thank you so much, Sarah! Hope you can make more of NYC vids. Yay! 😘
I just started as a bartender 2 months ago at a resort here in Fiji, only white sandy beaches and clear waters here.. seeing that rooftop bar really makes me want to work there. wow! really cool. I will try my best to go there one day, I really hope I will one day. great video. vinaka
I love Gallow Green! So pretty. Another amazing rooftop bar is Press Lounge with incredible views. It is massive with an outdoor pool. Hudson Hotel is also great cuz there’s different rooms to drink in with different vibes. The Beach poolside at Dream Hotel downtown is another fave. If you have mucho bucks, The Aviary is a must on the 35th floor in the Mandarin Hotel. Great view of Central Park. Good stuff!
Grew up in NYC until I moved to Texas in 2000. Wife and I are back this May(5/5-5/11) to visit family. Staying at Moxy's downtown. And will be searching for places that serve wings, BBQ and Mexican food. Love your videos
I visited NYC for the first time this year and did all the tourist stuff, but want to go back soon, take things at a more relaxed pace and explore the food and drink scene. Your videos are incredibly insightful and beautifully filmed , and you are so enthusiastic, fresh and fashionable. Thanks for the inspiration!
As a New Yorker I really recommend you to go to the Empire State at least once in your lifetime or you’ll not be a true New Yorker. Those are awesome rooftops and I also recommend the rooftop at the Knickerbocker hotel and the rooftop at the Peninsula hotel. They are really breathtaking.
Hi Sarah, I really love your videos, they are such a great help. Been to NYC in 2019 but will come back in September. Do you have any suggestions for some regular bars for people 50+?
Some of my favorite places made the list. .. in terms of views, Press and the William Vale in BK have the best views of the city . IMO... Definitely have to try some of your favorites
Havent been to NYC since 1992. My second time in September. Am preparing for a heavily gentrified city. But still great. Compared to last time. Staying next to Skybar. Thanks for your recommendations.
Damn, I've been to all of these places already lol. Used to live not to far from Rudy's and Gallow Green. Hit those places up alot. Sucks I'm stuck back in PA during the pandemic.. but shall be back sometime the end of 2021!
Just got back from NYC. Stayed right next to SkyBar in midtown. They were having a meet 'n greet and a fashion show the night we went, which was cool. Also went to Rudy's. But my favorite was Jekyll and Hyde in the Village. A bit pricey and kitchy, but the horror vibe was interesting nonetheless.
Wow awesome video! I am coming soon to visit and now slowly planning details, I wonder if any of the clubs and bars have Alcohol Mist machines which serve liquor shots in balloons and have almost none of the calories and all the buzz of regular shot? I am so picky with what I consume.
I live across the water in Jersey City and don't find myself going into NY all that often because I haven't yet fallen in love with it. I stumbled across your videos and girl you have opened my eyes. I need a friend like you to show me the secret spots!! Wanna hang? 😂
I’ve been living in Italy and have been to bars because you only have to be 18 in Italy to drink and they never I.D you. Now I’m going to NYC and was imagining going to bars at night to meet people and see the views but half way through this video I realized I can’t. I’ll still be a few months under 21😢 Disappointed. But great video! I’ll have to come back in a year and try these bars out;)

Hi there thank you very much for all your tips, very nice video. Are nice sneakers generally ok for these clubs or di I requirenti to take to NY classy shoes with high heels? Thank you for your help.
Hi Sarah really enjoying your videos. Coming to NYC in Oct (1st time) to celebrate 50th birthday, some of my party smoke, do you know of any roof top bars that allow this? Thank you
Hi. I love your videos because they are so helpful. I was wondering what are fun things to do in New York that young teens can go to. We have one underage boy and cannot go to bars or anything like that. What would you suggest. Thanks again for these videos!!
Check out my video on the best things to do in NYC. All of those things a teen can do except the Mckittrick Hotel parties :) th-cam.com/video/7QXV5DWzWoo/w-d-xo.html
It depends on the bar but most places allow you to just show up. Booking a table normally requires bottle service which is VERY EXPENSIVE. I recommend you just show up :)
Thanks Joshua Hawkins! I'm actually working on a video about that!

I live in Rhode Island And me and three friends are coming to Astoria in September and where staying the night. My friends want to find a rave. What’s the party sense like? Here’s my question, where do the out of town people go in New York City to party lol
I'm French, 20y & coming in New York next week with my little brother whose 14yo, I was wondering if the rooftop bars will let us in even if we're underage ? And can I drink alcohol even if I'm 20? Tx

always love these , super interested in the crocodile lounge especially . but they all seem really cool .
Yes! That one is so cool. It's probably one of the cheapest dinner and drinks in NYC lol
Grew up in NYC until I moved to Texas in 2000. Wife and I are back this May(5/5-5/11) to visit family. Staying at Moxy's downtown. And will be searching for places that serve wings, BBQ and Mexican food. Love your videos

Was at the skylark last weekend during the evening. Would totally recommend going. Excellent views and the cocktails were greatly, if pricey.
Your channel is so good. They keep me watching until the end which is the goal. Great Job!
Thanks Sarah.. very informative
As a New Yorker I really recommend you to go to the Empire State at least once in your lifetime or you’ll not be a true New Yorker. Those are awesome rooftops and I also recommend the rooftop at the Knickerbocker hotel and the rooftop at the Peninsula hotel. They are really breathtaking.
I love your videos. Visiting New York in August 2018 and will certainly visit some of the many tips you have provided.
Love this video including some of my favorites and a few I can't believe I haven't tried like Rudy's which looks great! Awesome job!
You must go! It's fun and also a great way to have a cheap meal lol
In NYC at the moment. Have been to Rudd’s....loved it. Going to try The Skylark and a few of those Speak Easy’s. Love this channel ❤️
I wish I could visit NYC someday
Another incredible episode, just in time for my arrival this afternoon! 🗽🇺🇸🎉👍🏼
Thank you! Enjoy your time in NYC :)
Hi Sarah, I really love your videos, they are such a great help.
Been to NYC in 2019 but will come back in September.
Do you have any suggestions for some regular bars for people 50+?
I wanna highly recommend Elsie Rooftop on 1412 Broadway. I really enjoyed my stay there.
Some of my favorite places made the list. .. in terms of views, Press and the William Vale in BK have the best views of the city . IMO... Definitely have to try some of your favorites
Yes the William Vale is epic! I've never been to Press. Clearly I'll have to add that to my list!
Havent been to NYC since 1992. My second time in September. Am preparing for a heavily gentrified city. But still great. Compared to last time. Staying next to Skybar. Thanks for your recommendations.
Damn, I've been to all of these places already lol. Used to live not to far from Rudy's and Gallow Green. Hit those places up alot. Sucks I'm stuck back in PA during the pandemic.. but shall be back sometime the end of 2021!
Apotheke = Ah-po-tek(-eh) Final "eh" only if you're pedantic...or a German speaker. ;-)
Also: Go on their jazz/burlesque nights. MUCH FUN!
It's german for pharmacy
I can’t choose, all of them seem so good 🤩🥂 which is the best bar for a date?
Thanks for the vid. We recently went to NYC and visited the skylark and rudys. Both cool bars 🤘
how is the prices in the skylark
Just got back from NYC. Stayed right next to SkyBar in midtown. They were having a meet 'n greet and a fashion show the night we went, which was cool.
Also went to Rudy's.
But my favorite was Jekyll and Hyde in the Village. A bit pricey and kitchy, but the horror vibe was interesting nonetheless.
Great stuff! Love Jimmy’s!
Mark Harris My friend Michelle works there. Tell her Chicago says hello next time you stop by!
She looks kinda lit at the very end 😂🤣 haha I don't blame her
Love your channel! Apotheke is actually the German Word for Pharmacy :)
I'm glad you loved it Video Game Close Up. I hope you subscribed (if you haven't already)! Thank you! :)
Thank you Sarah! I am a transplant and am loving your thoughtful videos :)
Thanks Sarah I bartend here in midtown, nice to visit new places in my town. I only know of Rudy's in Hells Kitchen.
Wow awesome video! I am coming soon to visit and now slowly planning details, I wonder if any of the clubs and bars have Alcohol Mist machines which serve liquor shots in balloons and have almost none of the calories and all the buzz of regular shot? I am so picky with what I consume.
I'm 17 years cant wait to turn 21 and go to these places if there up during that time.
What’s your opinion on a rooftop bar tour Sarah?
Which company is it with?
Sarah Funk SP & Big Apple
Such well thought out content!
Rudy's first date = wise
Cheers Sarah, love your video. Come To Rotterdam in The Netherlands ;-)
I would love to!
@@SarahFunky So true! Rotterdam has many gems! You are welcome to stay at The Student Hotel!
lol...why ??
I live across the water in Jersey City and don't find myself going into NY all that often because I haven't yet fallen in love with it. I stumbled across your videos and girl you have opened my eyes. I need a friend like you to show me the secret spots!! Wanna hang? 😂
OMG thanks! I'm so glad I opened your eyes to NYC. So much to do here!
agreed
Which one have affordable food and drinks and an amazing view and maybe great chill music?
I’ve been living in Italy and have been to bars because you only have to be 18 in Italy to drink and they never I.D you. Now I’m going to NYC and was imagining going to bars at night to meet people and see the views but half way through this video I realized I can’t. I’ll still be a few months under 21😢 Disappointed. But great video! I’ll have to come back in a year and try these bars out;)

Hi Sarah. Excellent video again! Are most bars OK with taking cameras in? I'm keen to get some cool photos. Thanks!
Yes, they love cameras! If you're going to a club that might be tough to bring a camera into though.
This was a useful video thank you!
Going next weekend. Gonna do my rounds!
You can definitely do that at the Freedom Tower!!
Sarah is ridiculously pretty
Louie is right. Rudy's is a great spot for a first date.
i love you sarah!!!
Ok americans, I WILL give you that much - NYC is an incredible city
Good video but it would be good to know exactly where these bars are in New York.
Are these rooftop bars open in the winter? Going in January lol. Thank you
Yes , they have huge heat lamps outside
Thank you!!!
The crocodile Lounge and The lately are closed as of November 2021 :(

Can you recommend a good rooftop bar for the winter time?
Awesome vlog!! Liked, following and added. 🤙🍸🥃🍹🥤🍷
Great video! Do any of these places have a cover charge?
Nope! :)
Would be really useful for ease of reference, if you indicate the address or at least the general area of NYC each bar is located in.
great great video!

Can you do a video on five bars?
Sarah if I will start to follow all your suggestions I have to extend my holiday in NYC but I cannot😔 i ll be just for 5 nights at the end of August
You'll have to come back another time :)
New York the beautiful city in the world
Does Apotheke serve food or just drinks?
For the rooftop bars do you just turn up or do you need to book a table? I'm going to New York for the first time next Easter, I'm so excited x
It depends on the bar but most places allow you to just show up. Booking a table normally requires bottle service which is VERY EXPENSIVE. I recommend you just show up :)
Hi, going to New York in September for the first time, was all them bars in and around Time Square ?
do research...
Wonder video!
When I'm eat a good Hamburger with a beautiful view to NYC from above a Rooftop?
rooftop view are cool
They are the best!
Video on dive bars
You should mention Skylark is closed on Weekends 4 private events
How much are drinks at Skylark ? thank you and god bless you.
+Diego Ramos i think they are around $16. Have fun!
Ok after my fight in las vegas im go ther 👊!
All look great,especially the rooftops. 😎The one in Chinatown seems ok,but Chinatown overall is blah.
