In particular I really liked their drinks and DJ. They offered all the standard open bar drinks and I liked their tequila sunrise, Paloma, and French 75. Cocktails were sweet as expected but didnt overpower the alcohol. My colleague had asked for something sweet with gin and got this gin-based elderflower drink with citrus notes. It was so good! Food was alright but I appreciated the range of flatbread, pasta, fried rice, and noodles. Didn't get a chance to try their desserts but it looked solid from a caterer. The space was quite nice because they had two floors. First was the entrance with a photo booth and bar area. Second was a bunch of velvet couches with a mini dance floor. Music was loud enough and they have the ability to change the lights/lighting. Coat check area in the front along with a staff member to check IDs. I had a great time at this venue!

Overlook is a gorgeous space with floor to ceiling windows and skylights. It overlooks the Bryant Park skating rink, Winter Village and has views of the surrounding buildings. The views here are AMAZING!!! I recently attended one of their free yoga classes as part of their Winter Fitness program. The space is pretty large and comfortably held the 40 or so attendees the night I attended yoga. We all were informed beforehand to bring our own mats and towels as these would not be provided. The yoga sessions are run by different yoga companies and the one I attended was by Sputnik Yoga and was a silent headphone yoga session. We each were provided, free of charge, headphones to wear during class. This was my first time attending a session like this but had a blast! The headphones took a bit getting used to, but I loved that you could clearly hear the teacher during the class. They also played some cool music while helping to block out all other sounds. This really helped me focus on the movement and the instructions. The class was an open level Vinyasa but the movements and flow were slightly advance. It was quite a workout and I was sweaty by the end. After class, we were each given wipes to sanitize the headphones and our mats. Then we all took selfies in this beautiful space and one final group picture, which they posted on their Instagram account. This was by far the coolest yoga class I've ever taken. I've been telling all of my friends and co-workers about it and have already signed up for some of their upcoming classes. Overlook offers other types of activities like Meditation, Ribbon Dancing, Barre classes and Story time for kids. It is a great place to watch the skaters below and enjoy Bryant Park's free activities. I highly recommend trying them out.

(That Truffle Butter lobster roll looked soooo good, but I was having dinner too soon after and did not want to spoil my appetite.) The ambiance is warm and cozy and I had seen photos of the Edgar Allan Poe art on the wall, so of course I loved it. The cocktail was $30 after the tip. It was good, but probably not a 30 dollar cocktail. I remember 25+ years ago when the basement of this building was storage for Pace when I worked and lived downtown. It was a ghost town at that time and the concept for Beekman Hotel was probably did not even exist yet. Businesses were moving out of lower Manhattan at that time. Now it's a bustling and elegant place, beautifully decorated. I love the atrium and the design of the place. I hope to get to stay here one day.

The event location offers sweeping views of the Hudson River, the Vessel, and a good deal of Manhattan and New Jersey's Gold Coast. The areas are supposed to be customizable, and I recently attended a party on the 21st floor. The space was more limited than I had expected, but I think it might have been configured as such. For instance, according to its website, it could fit up to 150 guests for a cocktail party or 20-120 guests for a seated dinner, but this setup held about 60-70 patrons. However, it was able to accommodate a coat check, a bar, a DJ station, a photo booth, and a few couches, while still allowing room for attendees to gather in groups and servers to pass out hors d'oeuvres. The party I attended was catered by Abigail Kirsch, and the food was fabulous in both taste and quantity. So, while the Glasshouse Chelsea is pretty far west and not the most convenient, its ability to set the scene for a great event makes it worth the trip, either as an organizer/planner or as an attendee.
