    An absolute gem for cocktail hour! The ambiance is simply perfect. The staff is attentive, the atmosphere is inviting and every sip is a delight.

    I recently visited The Lookup and was blown away by the stunning view of the Empire State Building. While the entire staff was great, Jennifer, the head mixologist, truly took customer service to another level. Despite it being the end of the night and juggling multiple tasks, Jennifer treated my family like her own, ensuring we had everything we needed. Her lovely demeanor and attentiveness, along with her expertly crafted drinks, made our visit unforgettable. If I ran a hospitality business, Id want ten Jennifers—she is the epitome of going above and beyond and truly deserves a promotion. Well definitely be back!

    ESB is right in front. Rooftop isnt that big, but alright. Grilled cheese and lobster rolls were great.

    Best views in the city! Spent the day with the family at the Empire State Building and came here right after! I saw the food and drinks on Instagram and had to try the lobster roll - one of the best in NYC! Great city view, great vibes, amazing drinks and a must visit if youre in new york city!

    Cute, small venue, great view of the Empire State Building. Good drink choices, limited food items. Great place for friends to gather.

  • Review 17 (2024-07-20 - Rating: 5)

    This place is an amazing must go to!! Enough said.

  • Review 18 (2019-08-10 - Rating: 5)

    Drinks and service are amazing. Highly recommended. Literally every one of the house drinks is absolutely worth trying. Not too busy and the location is top tier.

  • Review 19 (2019-06-26 - Rating: 5)

    Great midtown spot. Doesnt get too crowded. Service dipped off a bit once the after work crowd showed up. Ill definitely come again.

  • Review 20 (2019-07-29 - Rating: 4)

    Im not a real bar guy but thought Id share about this place. Happened to come here with some old friends after dinner. First of all, all the staff were very friendly and welcoming. One small complaint is the elevator system. They have one dedicated for the rooftop but its slow and allows for stops along the way. The operator said that one of the two regular elevators was under repair so hopefully it will improve soon. But you get upstairs, make a right and go outside. At first you see some of the seating and high top tables directly in front. But you make that left to see the bar and look up - BAM! Possibly one of the best unobstructed, close up views of the ESB! I mean I live here but that view did NY proud. The drinks are probably in the range of fancy NY bars (my 5 borough beer was $10). But nice mix of seating/standing options. Like someone else said, check it out before it gets more popular! Note that since theyre in their probationary period with their liquor license, they have to close at 11 for now.

    New relatively airy rooftop hotel bar. A nice casual date place. They have cold sandwhiches and several types of popcorn for food and beers, wines and cocktails on the drink side.The new Yorker sandwhich was tasty enough to order again, albeit a little salty.The restrooms are unisex and in the inside portion of the bar. Thus far they are better than average for NYC.

  • Review 22 (2019-09-01 - Rating: 5)

    Been there done that, its stunningly beautiful. The entire city is at your feet! Well worth the wait and the price!

  • Review 23 (2019-10-01 - Rating: 5)

    Amazing view, drinks are standard NYC rooftop prices. Tasty. Chill vibes.

  • Review 24 (2023-07-07 - Rating: 5)

    We had such a great time tonight at the Lookup! Amazing views and such a trendy space. Drinks were on tap - I recommend the #5 and #7. It was a great atmosphere with a lot of young professionals on an early Friday evening. Will definitely be back!

    Lovely drinks, and amazing NYC views.

    Great view. Loved the drinks.

  • Review 27 (2019-07-18 - Rating: 5)

    Wonderful views of the empire state building, open rooftop, and reasonably priced drinks. All of this and a cool crowd makes this an instant hit. If ordering food try the chips and dip, it is like no other place in town.

    New hotel rooftop bar. Great views and good drinks but very similar to the others in the area.

    Great place to unwind. Nice beers.

  • Review 33 (2019-06-11 - Rating: 4)

    Sangria is good value, albeit weak in alcohol content. Food and views makes up for the weak alcohol.

    Regular place, good ambient music and a spectacular view of the Empire State!

  • Review 51 (2024-06-27 - Rating: 5)

    Clear recommendation. Not overcrowded, nice music, staff are all very nice and the best thing is the view directly onto the Empire State Building, which looks awesome especially in the dark. You dont have to pay an entrance fee like you sometimes do in other rooftop bars. The prices are already high, but drink prices are like that all over NY. We paid $18 for a cocktail. Nevertheless, you should go to a rooftop bar at least once during your NY vacation and I can recommend this one for that.

  • Review 52 (2019-10-20 - Rating: 5)

    Very cool. The performance was amazing and its nice to come across these types of events when they are unexpected. Highly recommended.
