    Mr. Purple is very spacious rooftop bar and restaurant located on the 15th floor. Mr. Purple's interior decor is very nice from moment you step off the elevator, walk around the bar/restaurant area and finally arrive to the rooftop/pool area. My bestie and I were here to attend an event and we had a wonderful time. There was a DJ playing a variety of music from different genres. We were enjoying the music and having a great time dancing as well. The view from the rooftop was cool. The rooftop area was decent, but in terms of size it was okay as long as it wasn't overly crowded. I love the fact that there was a pool. Overall, it is a cool spot to hang out.

    This review is specifically for the outdoor rooftop viewing area of Downtown NYC, as I did not try drinks here; we only came for the rooftop views lol. Terrific panoramic views of all the buildings, probably would be better to see at night but we were in the area and came in later afternoon. They also have a small pool outside too.

    I come here everytime I visit NYC. Great cocktails, great vibes, great views, and great music. Indoor and outdoor seating. They have fire places and heaters outside. This even would be a good place to watch sports.

    First time here at Mr. Purple and definitely a good time. I went to visit my friend who is also a former work colleague of mine as well. Great vibe and staff, a place you must check out if you're in the delancey street area. Love and appreciate you always ricky .

    I hung out here several times during my weekend stay at the hotel this past summer. We enjoyed the fantastic rooftop views and the pool. We even came up one night after dinner for the party vibes. It's definitely a younger crowd. Drinks were a but pricey, but not over the top. It is NYC after all. I think they charge a cover for the rooftop party after a certain time, but we didn't pay one - maybe it's free if you're a hotel guest?! Don't quote me on that. Well the one downside is that the music is very loud and when we got back to our room, we could still hear it!

    Mr. Purple is located in the lower east side. They have promising views of the city and the outdoor space is pretty large. They also have a gorgeous bar area with ample of seating as well. I recommend reservations for the weekends. Service was attentive and the music was a vibe. The only ding was drinks were pretty pricey $23 and food was $16 and up. Not sure if I can justify the pricing but overall the venue is pretty solid.

    Mr. Purple was a lot of fun! The rooftop view of the city was immaculate, and they had a great selection of music as well. The drinks were solid, and I enjoyed the overall vibe of Mr. Purple as a whole. Would recommend!

    I came here to bar hop with friends and it was a pretty decent spot. The inside of the bar is pretty spacious with different levels and a huge patio area (that would be great for warmer days). Drinks and service here is decent.

    We came for the rooftop views, which you can see a peep of the skyline from a few angles. There is also a pool that no one goes in where all the bottle service tables are situated around. The space was crowded on a Thursday night with the DJ spinning on the terrace. We ended up moving to the outdoor space on the other end, which was much more chill. This side had some seating and no DJ, but a speaker playing music still. We were able to easily get a drink at the bar though, which were around $20 each. It's Manhattan, so pretty typical prices here. I do like that they have a more quiet side for people to enjoy as well, although not as great of a view on this side. It's a decent rooftop bar in NYC, but good for balance.

    A super fun place if you come out to the rooftop during the summer time. If you get there by 9/10pm you miss the long lines and get in for free. The vibes and views are amazing! The drinks are definitely overpriced so beware of that. Iconic views if you're visiting NYC & want to be on a rooftop for the summer.

All the drinks keep with the tropical, fruity taste with a hint of spice. They are also broken up into categories (dry land = no alcohol, shallows = average amount of alcohol, and abyss (larger amounts of alcohol). The abyss section has some cocktails that are limited to two per customer. They have some bar bites like fried green tomatoes, shrimp toast, broiled oysters, ricotta, dumplings, sliders.

Our friends raved about this place and we of course were excited (and a bit skeptical at first) to try it. The concept: no menu + no lights + a few questions = the ultimate cocktail experience. The speakeasy vibe and the dark ambiance really makes this place feel even more exclusive. With just a few tables and the bar setting, you're in for an experience you won't forget (unless you answer the wrong questions and really end up with a drink you don't like HA). This wasn't my case. Of course I described my two favorite things: Negroni + mezcal. The obvious answer would be a mezcal Negroni, but that's not why one comes to a place like Attaboy. Our amazing curator came by to ask us all a few questions, write down a few words in the napkins, and mix up the perfect drink that our master bartender crafts, curates and creates. My drink came as I couldn't possibly imagine. It looked like a Negroni smelled like Oaxaca, with all the smoke simmering up and preparing my sensory experience, leading to the best first sip. Ladies and gentleman, I introduce you to The Devil's Backbone. A perfectly balanced drink I'll never forget, one that is sipped slowly and enjoyed thoroughly. It's sexy, it's smoky it's sipped. Attaboy gave the best mixology experience and we can't wait to be back. Pro tip: be sure to be as vocal as possible, even with ice, so you don't end up with a tiki drink if that's not your vibe.

He called us to let us know our table was ready but we missed the call (our fault). We returned the call immediately and got there within a couple minutes anyway. We were ready to patiently wait for the next availability but were met with some attitude and unnecessary comments from him during the waiting experience. Regardless, we had a great time inside to make up for this. Highly recommend, but just be sure to make a reservation or be on alert and on time when getting off the waitlist.

Tucked into the Financial District, this spot blends old New York history with some of the best cocktails in the city--and it's easy to see why it's been named "World's Best Bar" more than once. The name itself has a wild backstory, inspired by a notorious 19th-century Irish-American gang from Five Points. It adds a layer of character to the place, but what really keeps people coming back is the atmosphere and the drinks. The space is split into two levels: a two lively, sawdust-floored Taprooms downstairs and a more refined Parlor upstairs if you're in the mood for a quieter, cocktail-focused experience. Drinks are the real highlight here. The Irish Coffee is widely considered one of the best in the world--rich, smooth, and perfectly balanced with whiskey, coffee, and fresh cream. They also get creative with variations like a frozen version and even an Irish Coffee martini. If you want something different, the "Act Naturally" is a standout, mixing Irish whiskey with Guinness and fig in a way that works. Food is just as impressive for a bar. The lobster deviled eggs (topped with caviar) are a must-try, and the menu leans into elevated comfort food. Overall, The Dead Rabbit nails the balance between historic charm and modern cocktail excellence. The D.R. is one of those places that is never boring and consistently delivers.
