This place is a lot better than the Meatpacking District location. The last time I was here, DJ Premier was playing all the hits so it was a vibe! There's a lot of space so you'll have a place to sit. Drinks were good. Patio is even better at night as you can really get beautiful views of the bridge. read more

Dumbo House is one of those rare places where the setting alone feels like a small luxury. Perched right above the water with postcard-perfect views of the Brooklyn and Manhattan Bridges, it's easily one of the most beautiful spots in Brooklyn to spend an afternoon or evening. The scene is relaxed but stylish--exactly what you want from a members' club. Staff are warm, attentive, and never make you feel rushed. There's also a no-photographs rule, which I actually appreciate; it keeps the atmosphere calm, present, and blissfully free of people staging selfies every two minutes. The rooftop is the star: comfy seating, great energy, and that epic skyline stretching out in front of you. No matter the season, it feels like you're on vacation without leaving the city. One highlight worth calling out is the Persian-inspired menu they've been offering in partnership with the London-based Persian restaurant Berenjak. It's fantastic--bright flavors, fragrant herbs, and dishes that feel both comforting and elevated. The koobideh kabab (minced lamb shoulder with onions and black pepper) is out of this world. Drinks are well-executed (the gin martinis are consistently excellent), and the rest of the food menu is reliable--fresh, unfussy, and perfect for sharing. Whether you're there for a quiet coffee, a work session, a date, or cocktails with friends, the space adapts to the moment. If you're lucky enough to get a spot by the windows or on the roof, settle in. Dumbo House is one of the few places where the view really does live up to the hype. read more

Cool trendy spot where stars sometimes frequent. Food and drink were good. Lot of people love the DJ. I don't know much about DJs but for a Friday night by 10pm the vibe was good. Seems like people love exclusivity and luxury and this place has an artistic background but unclear on all the benefits and options of membership. Another place in NYC to commercialize on beautiful views of the bridge and water. Shoutout to my event planner who works there! read more

Privileged and exclusive but idyllic in nature, you will feel it all when you enter this restaurant. Beautiful views of Manhattan with an air of chicness to it. The food is very good and you often find celebrities here. In fact I was seated next to the rapper and media celebrity Common on my one date with a friend! I ordered the impossible burger with sweet potato fries that came with a well toasted brioche bun and savory toppings, including honey mustard. The burger was average, but the experience of sitting in velvet chairs with glasses of classy cocktails being poured in the middle of the day felt like a real treat. I am unaware of the cost of being a member, but get to know someone who frequents this spot and come here often! read more

Dumbo House - Impossible Burger - Social Clubs Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I came here to say that if I could live on the rooftop, I would and saw that someone else echoed my sentiments. The pool is well heated well staffed and the drinks are amazing. Always a spectacular time. Berenjak on the terrace has great food as well and of course the views are amazing. read more

The music was everything. Never have I ever heard soca and Afro beats mixed with house music! I am So here for the resident DJ he has my heart and I will be returning. Hell I might even apply for my own membership! The service at the bar was spectacular. The table seating not so much. Our waitress disappeared for 30 minutes and our glasses were not refreshed. I asked a bus boy to find someone to help us order drinks. He did not. I had to flag down another server but he did not understand our issue but did help close out the tab. While seated we ordered the tuna tartare and truffle fries which were exceptional. If they can work on the service it will be top tier. The ambiance is great but you do not need much with spectacular views. The chandeliers do add an element that brings magic alive ! read more

If I could live on the rooftop of Dumbo House when it's nice weather sipping an adult beverage of my choice, I would. Dumbo House is really beautiful with a spectacular view of the Brooklyn Bridge and skyline. My friend is a member and brought me as her guest and I am so happy she did. I found myself here twice in the weekend I was in New York, so you know I liked it. The outdoor rooftop is beautiful, and so is the indoor lounge area. I had a solid martini there and a delightful girl dinner one visit of French fries. Service was friendly, and overall the vibes were top notch. If you're a member definitely make it a point to visit here when you're in the area. read more

This place has a phenomenal view of The Brooklyn Bridge. It's so very attractive and draws you in especially at night. The place is decorated well with plush seating options and tables of various types. The servers/bartenders were very nice and pleasant. It really is an absolutely beautiful space and I was magnetized by the ambiance. The lights were low, terrible for pictures. They had an adjacent movie room that was empty for this particular night. Live music that was great but hard to hear due to faulty speaker issues. The drinks were decent nothing noteworthy in my opinion. Cappuccino was authentic. My Aprizza Thyme drink was less pomegranate and more grapefruit then expected. I was with a group who's drinks ranged from good to 'different' The food is where we lost a star. The truffle fries were matchstick thin, not hot nor cold, and very overly salted. Damn near inedible. The fish and chips were straight up terrible. The fish was thickly coated and unseasoned. The burgers were decent nothing to remark on at all. This is a Soho House, it requires an annual membership. I had the expectation of better food to match the vibe. I would drink there again, but never eat there again. read more

Now I'm not one to join clubs like this but the ambiance is too amazing to pass up. The people are what you would expect in Brooklyn, nice mixture of all walks of a kool boro. This isn't the stuffy, pretentious BS you have in manhattan this is Brooklyn kool. Everyone is nice and respectful, The food and drinks are good. The music is good. The staff there amazing and the views, UNBELIEVABLE!!!! If you don't believe me go check it out yourself. You will thank me later. read more

The views here at Dumbo House are definitely one of the highlights of visiting. I mean how could you not feel on top of the world when seeing the Brooklyn/ Manhattan Bridge and a stunning view of Manhattan. I'm sure this place is even more lively during the summer time too. The food and service though ... not so much of a highlight unfortunately. I came in for lunch as a guest of a member and as soon as the elevators opened to this exclusive social house I was shocked by how many people were here. Granted it was a Friday afternoon, but sheesh .. there was barely any open seating in the main area and the dining area was packed. The room was filled with diverse and driven creatives all busy socializing and getting work done (love to see it)! So for the food, we ordered their 3 course lunch which was a great price in my opinion. I ordered a salmon arugula salad, their BLTA with white bean soup and their mango sorbet. Everything was pretty mid, nothing special at all but it was very filling. Our server was great at the beginning but after our appetizers were served everything was out of whack. I'm not sure if it was because the servers were rotating between tables but the food didn't come out at the same time. So one person was patiently waiting for everyone else's food to come out while there food was getting cold. My favorite part of the meal by far was the mango sorbet... a nice and light way to end off the meal. read more

Came here with a friend who is a member for their weekend "feast" brunch and wowsas, is it a feast! Like you're at a fancy resort in LA for the day. Brisket, pancakes, potato salad, bagels, omelettes, Mac and cheese, fried chicken, an entire table devoted to desserts. The dream (if you're willing to spend $2100 a year). 5 stars!!! read more

This is a critical safety update. Upon the invitation of a colleague to have a meeting at Dumbo House that would use the pool facilities, I recently visited. The recklessness of this place is worth calling out. The shower room door does not lock!!! Someone walked in while I was showering. While it did not happen, this increases the probability of a potential sexual assault. It is of course a violation of privacy. Imagine selling a club that doesn't even have a working lock on the shower room door. This place is incredibly poorly run in other ways, but I thought to focus on the most egregious example. read more

I will be cancelling my membership tomorrow. This place sucks. Came on a a busy day, however I was told I was next up for a daybed (I was waiting over 2 hours). Checked again, lady said I was NEXT up. So what do I do? Nice guy I give away my single chair. Go back up, that lady left and the new lady told me I was 30th. How the hell did that happen? Why did I give my seat away? Sure I was going up every 10 minutes, but it's because I was told I was next. She def gave a little sas. Then I go downstairs, wait 20 minutes for a drink and tell the bartender I wanted to bring it upstairs. He said he couldn't serve me, even though he had plastic cups behind him (not his fault, but so dumb). So, my guests arrive, we say hey, screw it, even though it's a perfect outdoor sunny day let's eat downstairs. We go downstairs and wait for a table to eat, we sit and enjoy drinks while doing so. We finally get seated for food and it took them 40 MINUTES to come over and ask us what we want. I type this as I am still sitting here nearly an hour in with no water to drink. This place has gone so downhill ever since they changed to reservations (which bots snipe the moment them come available in 48 hours). Going to sign up for another club to use the pool because this is awful. Best part - you ask how long you need to wait and they don't give a Straight answer. Even tell me 7 hours I don't care just tell me something! They understaff too - feel bad for the workers. Also none of their payment processing machines work and they all just chat and don't actually work. In summary, this was the worst experience I have ever had at an establishment in my 28 years of being alive. Being respectful and honest gets you nowhere here, if you are looking for dogshit service, vague answers, snobby/lazy workers, and ridiculously inefficient structure, you came to the right place! I will be shorting this stock with every residual cent I can find within my couch cushions and will be licking my lips and prancing as I watch the price and this establishment fall to the depths of hell. (1.15 hours in, still no water but food came out quick, this is an honest review) read more

The views and decor are the only thing this place has going for it. The service is absolutely atrocious. How are you supposed to be upscale and exclusive with that bad of service. It took forever to get greeted and forever to have our check brought to us. I asked if they could split the bill the waitress didn't even pretend like she would try. She just said no and brought it out all combined. The funniest part about all this is you would think they were overwhelmed with tables and helping others but the majority of the time the staff just stands around. The food isn't even all that good for the price. What I ordered I liked, but they overcooked the salmon that one of the members at my table ordered. She also wanted a moscato (a sweet wine) and the waitress recommended her a very dry wine. Not what she had in mind at all. Also the fact they will only let you have a max of four people in your group just does not make any logically sense. They made us wait 30 minutes after our reservation to be seated at a table that was no different than any other tables setup and made a big deal like they wouldn't no where to put us. Adding one person should not be this hard. read more

The views are pretty spectacular. I stuck to a classic burger which came with fries. It was a solid burger, and the fries were great. The space was very crowded and boisterous which kind of changed how relaxed I felt. Servers were nice and polite. I personally couldn't see the value of being a member because of how crowded it was, and I prefer more of a peaceful environment. But maybe Thursday was a busy day. No real complaints. A solid choice if you like an energetic place to work or enjoy that sort of ambiance. read more

Dumbo house is an exclusive membership only club part of soho house with about annual $5k fee. The entrance is located inside the time-out market with separate elevator to get up. They have very strange rules tho, they don't allow people to take pictures even just the view, no drinking in the pool even they are all plastic, no laptop or phone call either they said it ruins the vibe. The food and drinks are decent, buffet has a good selection and taste good. Our waitress was great very friendly and attentive. They have a great view of the Brooklyn bridge from the restaurant and pool so that's really amazing read more

I spent a rainy Sunday at Dumbo House Memorial weekend as a guest of a member for brunch. We spent several hours drinking and noshing on brunch while catching up and surrounded by fantastic views. Despite not being able to reserve a table we were able to secure seating in the lounge area. The service was attentive and personable, fantastic drinks and tasty food with some great DJ's in the background. It was a great way to spend time catching up with friends. When the weather is nice eating outside is amazing. Much prefer this location to the meatpacking one. read more

Don't go here the food costs the same as a trendy restaurant in New York except it's not good and the service is insane how slow it is!! People complain over the years but now it's clear that it's become a scam and that's why people are shorting the stock it's a total rip off for members and guests!! They've throttled the rooftop via a booking system on opentable that fundamentally doesn't work and is offensive how you pay/sign up for access then get refused access feels that's a scam!! Hopefully consumers read this and sue, they deserve it. read more

I have never written a yelp review before, but this experience was so bad that I downloaded the app to do so. Do not spend your money here. You see the photos and it looks amazing but the service is the worst service I've had in my life. Employees are rude, lost our place in the (3 hour) line for a rooftop spot, then we went downstairs to get food, got seated after a wait, and they didn't come up to the table with even water for over 50 minutes. Then asked for water and they never brought it again. Horrible horrible horrible. read more

Great views, live music and drinks during dinner time. The chicken, shrimp, hummus and red pepper dips, Margherita pizza and dessert sundae were all delicious. We sat out on the patio and enjoyed the views & attentive service. The entrance in the lobby is super discreet which adds to the exclusive vibe. read more

Located above the Empire Stores, the entrance is accessed through a discreet bronze door leading to the lobby. You have to take the elevator upstairs to access the club. The view here is absolutely gorgeous. Great place to chill, hangout, and do what you gotta do. The food and drinks were decent and the buffet was worth every penny. They have a no-picture policy but... hey! The staff is very knowledgeable and the service is a bit slow at times, but if you're not in a rush, it's no biggie. read more

Dumbo House - Social Clubs Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

It's true that each location of this members-only club has its own identity, and of its New York locations, Dumbo House is my favorite. Being in this part of DUMBO guarantees breathtaking views of the beautiful Brooklyn Bridge and city skyline, which you can take in from their large outdoor patio. Just don't try to snap a photo, for you may be subject to their strict, but spottily enforced no photo policy-- evidenced by this photo I nabbed before I knew about this rule. It's particularly funny in this neighborhood, where you can't walk two feet without bumping into an influencer taking the same hackneyed photo on the same cobblestone street you've likely seen if you've spent any time on the internet. I think a haven devoid of hoards of people with their phones perpetually out is one that I welcome, and the various Soho Houses provide that, among many other perks. Earlier this year I joined some friends for dinner in their open dining room, which faces the dance floor. Well dressed people shuffled in for DJ Talib Kweli, who we also came to see perform. We shared a few wood-fired pizzas, calamari, burrata, and wood fired eggplant dip. The prices were significantly higher than what similar fare would cost at even a nice NYC restaurant but I think that just comes with the territory. Everything was pretty tasty and fresh, and service was attentive and helpful. As the music played and the whole place filled up, it felt like any other club. It was still difficult to flag down the bartender to pay for a $20 cocktail, and it was difficult to find space on the dance floor where I wouldn't be jostled from side to side, but all of this also comes with the territory. Hard to imagine what dance floors will look like in the coming year, and if they can happen at all. Still, I'm taking some comfort in reveling in the nostalgia of being entrenched in a sweaty throng of people, with nothing to worry about other than when they can get their next drink. read more

The service and quality seems to have dropped noticeably since my last visit. We sat outside in the patio and there were only about 3 other tables occupied yet we waited over very long to get our food. When the food finally arrived the server spilled the soup on the plate and didn't even apologize. He also didn't bring any spoons for us to eat the soup, my friend had to walk over and get the spoon for us. Having this lackluster service is really not acceptable considering the outrageous prices. read more

Dumbo House - Lunch special, chick pea soup and sausage sandwich - Social Clubs Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

A restaurant more expensive than a typical Michelin Star restaurant (not even including the membership fee required to dine there), but with subpar food and unbelievably bad service. Just insanely, mind-bogglingly bad service. Worse than any hole-in-the-wall. They just forget about you, again and again and again, even though you're paying $36 for a mediocre sandwich. Yes, the views are amazing, but so are the views from the promenade and food court on the ground floor. Either reduce the restaurant prices by 50% (bringing them in line with a normal pricey restaurant) or use that money to pay staff enough to actually retain some people. read more

Yesterday I went to Dumbo House for the first time. I have been to two other SoHo Houses: the New York location and Miami. I have to say that the service at Dumbo was the worst service I've ever experienced at any restaurant/lounge/bar in the US. The staff seems to have zero hospitality experience, zero training and it feels like the GM is hiring people off the street or possibly just friends of theirs. The people there were so incompetent that I actually wondered if they were high. Here are some examples: - No waitstaff came by to ask if we wanted to order - we had to flag them down to order SEVERAL TIMES - It takes at least 45 minutes to get drinks when you do order - They screwed up EVERY SINGLE ROUND of food and drinks that we ordered - We asked them to split into two checks for two groups of people who were there at different times. They messed that up TWICE and had to re-run even though it was written on the receipt. Not sure how you can screw that up - Twice they brought food and drinks that we didn't order and then charged us for it A message for the management of SH: - It was clear that the staff doesn't work in sections. The servers claims it's because the customers "move around" but that makes no sense. Waitstaff should have designated sections that they work in and are responsible for. One of our waitresses left for the day and never told us and no one took over for her. - Are tips pooled? That also may be why employees just don't care. If the tips are pooled then they just don't care about service because they aren't directly rewarded for their efforts. They don't care if you get good service or not. - Train your people. The employees are clearly not trained. If they are unclear on something, they aren't asking for clarity on the order. Examples: one person ordered berries and then two orders of berries came out. When my friend said, "I only ordered berries" the waitperson said, "Well, there are two of you." My friend said, "Yes, but only I am hungry." Also, I ordered crudite on the side of the eggplant and avocado dips and when it came there were two orders but I only asked for one. They charged me for it and I had no idea that they were putting in two orders - WHY? Again, it's just a lack of training, curiosity and understanding of the role. - Check to see how many voids are happening for drinks and food and also cross reference the members list/their guests with how many people are actually patrons that day. Something fishy is going on with membership - I am guessing that the GM is just allowing all kinds of friends/nonmembers to go there. If that is what the goal is, why not get rid of the entire paid membership program then? My guess is that if there is any response from SH on this it will be some vague response that they are "working on it" or something that also shows that this is not being taken seriously. I would like to hear from the GM as to why this location is such a disaster. If I am paying $500 for appetizers and drinks, I would expect much better service. The price is not worth the value here. read more

Space is obviously gorgeous. I suppose you don't really go here for the food. Ambiance is stunning and warm.

Dumbo House definitely beats Soho in terms of view, spaciousness and ambiance, though it's a bit harder to get to from Manhattan. Service was also kind of bad - at one point we all needed more silverware and that proved to be a challenge for some reason. Otherwise, food is good: margherita pizza, French fries and grilled romaine were all tasty. Lettuce wraps and poke were both a little too spicy for me. Eastern Standard cocktail is my favorite both here and at soho. Above all: incredible view. read more
