Amazing cocktails! We visited Weather Up on the Saturday that the Knicks won the championship, and it was about half full because of the game but became more lively afterward. This cocktail bar is cute with the bar towards the front and plenty of seating in the back and looks a bit different than some of the older pictures. I tried the Castaway to drink, and it had a fantastic blend of flavors. Overall, I would highly recommend Weather Up for cocktails in Tribeca. read more

I had a good time here on a late Saturday night with friends! The bar was slightly filled with plenty of seating still open around 10:30 PM and was a great place to catch up. The staff were all friendly and continually filled our waters. I ordered a drink that I thought was going to be closer to a spicy marg with Tajin but there was actually no kick to it at all. Other than wishing it was more of a spicy drink, it was delicious! read more

Bright and trendy bar to grab a cocktail after dinner, but it is on the pricier side. While they don't put it on their menu they say they can make most classic drinks -- including an espresso martini. read more

I read the reviews before coming here and they all said the service was horrible. However, that's not what I experienced. I had to wait for someone and I was standing and they offered me multiple times a seat while I waited. They were attentive once seated and weren't upset that we stayed a while but didn't order much. read more

Its a craft cocktail bar; thats it. Cool menu, nice decor and the mixologists are masters of their craft. We popped in before our dinner reservation. Everything we had was on point. The champagne old fashioned was fire. Endless refills of water and extroverted social bartenders. $19 each for all their craft cocktails; good price point for Manhattan. I am a fan. read more

I moved into Tribecca around a year ago and this was the first place I came. Good vibes/ambiance, strong espresso martinis (take note of this) and it was steps from my apartment so pretty much all you need in a bar. I've been back sporadically and never had an issue but I should've read the more recent reviews before coming back to this place. Absolutely 180 in terms of service and staff. Our server (Paris or Christina was her name, we actually got conflicting answers) made us feel unwelcome from the moment we walked in. I tried to order an espresso martini to which she replied they didn't have. After I expressed my shock, given I had been there before and received them, she coldly responded "I doubt it." That rude encounter aside (I quickly subbed out a different drink) the rest of the evening she did not check on us, was drinking with other patrons/bartenders behind the bar, and we had to physically wave down someone else just to get the check. Just absolutely uncomfortable through and through and genuinely ruined our night being treated so oddly without provocation. 1 star for service, 3 stars only because the drinks were decent. Also as a note to the business- they should probably update their google post (see pic). Understand menus change so you can work on updating that while giving your staff additional training. read more

Mediocre cocktails, and the bartenders will try to pad the bill Had two cocktails and 3 beers - got charged for 3 cocktails and 6 beers. Tried raising this with the bartender and they corrected the bill but still managed to overcharge on the number of drinks. Check your bill here! read more

They recently switched up their drink menu and they were all amazing. Really enjoyed the ambiance and the booths - good spot for a larger party. Service was good but I think they could've used another server to help out. It seemed like they had 1 person serving the entire floor. Will be back read more

I rarely leave reviews but please avoid this bar at all costs. First our group comes in and we ask for a cocktail we've once had here before and the bartender (don't know his name but the one with the tattoo sleeve on his left arm) says "that's just a ratchet version of something better we had. We have leftovers though so we can give that to you." We tried to have a pleasant rest of the evening but when another friend in our party tried to order, the same bartender responded "No. Come back later," before he could even finish his sentence. It was a packed bar, and I was able to find a spot for about two hours at the corner of the bar. No one said anything to me the entire time until at the end when that same bartender said to me "you need to keep this area clear. CLEAR. At ALL times." To which I genuinely apologized, and he responded back with "You're not sorry!" Finally we asked someone else to close out our tab. By this point we no longer wanted to stay here. He seemed apologetic that another bartender was rude to us and asked for our names to close us out. I did not have a tab but asked to close out on behalf of my sister who was next to me but was in the middle of catching up with a friend. He kept asking me what my last name was for the card. When my friend told him her last name he responds "See how easy that was?" I was speechless. I said I didn't have a tab and was closing out for my sister. He said "That's the problem. She should tell me directly." She's right next to me, in the middle of a conversation, I don't understand what the problem was. We were nothing but polite to the staff so I assume this is how they treat every single person who enters the bar. There are so many better spots in this city, in Tribeca, to give your business to. Stay away from this place. read more

Came here for happy hour after work with a friend. It wasn't too crowded: there was a decent smattering of people, especially congregated around the bar, though we were able to find a table easily. I sometimes have trouble asserting elbow and ordering space at bars, with the attention cycles of bartenders, but the bartender was super genial and noticed me straight away, and when I placed an order he said he'd actually come take our order at our table.  Weather Up had oysters for $1.50 each, which wasn't a bad deal, though a fifty percent increase from the price listed on their website menu. We ordered three each and also each had a drink, from the tap list. My friend had a lager and I had a peanut butter chocolate porter. It was definitely one of the more interesting porters I've had. It was dark, with no foam, and tasted bitter at first, but had the sweeter aftertaste of chocolate peanut butter. Sometimes, when a porter is chocolate-flavored you barely get a whiff of the scent, but this flavor was fairly bold. The lingering aftertaste was distinctly like a peanut butter M&M. The oysters were smaller than I would have liked, and were slurped up way too quickly. They came with the usually assortment of lemon, horseradish, and cocktail sauce. I enjoyed the cocktail sauce a lot; it was a nice complement to the oysters' salty taste of the sea. Overall a fun experience. Great ambiance for a chat and a catch up with a friend, without feeling like your space is crowded. Looks like the crowd is more tasteful, too, probably due to the expensiveness of their cocktails. Their happy hour, which ends at 7pm on a weekday, only has deals for the oysters; there is unfortunately no drink deal. However, we did spot a fairly good deal for cocktails and oysters Saturdays, so we will be back to take advantage of that. read more

Weather Up - happy hour oysters - Bars Near Me - New York, New York

We came here after having a terrible time at 1803 near by. My husband and I wanted to find a cool place to have a quick drink before getting back home to our kids. This place is awesome! We opted to try the bartenders choice. The person who attended us asked us a few questions Regarding what kind of spirits we liked And brought us two cocktails that were not only beautiful but tasted amazing! They were so good one quick drink turned to 4 drinks and one to go. I wish I would have gotten the guys name cause he was great! Attentive and very knowledgeable. I would give all my money to this place! Totally worth it. Thank you for saving our date night! read more

Ladies wear flats! This is home to the lollipop heeled. Cocktails are delicious. We didn't try the food only the cocktails. I had The High Horse and Diablo. This is a cocktail bar where the drinks are tasty but they sneak up on you. There really is a stuffed peacock at the bar. The music is chill. The only drawback is the acoustics. You can barely have a conversation. You truly have to yell. read more

LOVE this bar. Great cocktails, great vibes, great people, and by far the neighborhood's brightest (and possibly oldest) gem.

Pretty low key spot for happy hour. I went on a Thursday around 5 pm, and there were a dozen or so people spread out in a dimly-lit (other than some natural lighting) interior. The bartenders are attentive, and I enjoyed my aperol spritz and gin martinis. read more

Bottoms Up at the Weather Up! I came Tuesday night to Tyler Kord's "A Super Upsetting Cookbook About Sandwiches" book launch party. The book is officially available for purchase June 14th!! I'm rarely in TriBeCa. I love fancy, hoity toity places but most of the time I just stick to Brooklyn, East Village and LES. Hmmm... I spend a lot of my time with the riff raff. I bought a ticket for the event off eventbrite and it was a steal. I got way more than my money's worth!! Commute is tough. Subways are not easy to come to this area. Only the 1 drops you off remotely close. I took the R and walked down. When I made the turn it was the "private party" sign that helped me find the spot. I was greeted with a copy of the cookbook, a magnet and postcards! When I got to the beautiful bar the menu had 3 cocktails, 3 wines and 2 beers. I worked my way up the cocktail menu, starting with the Santa Rosa. I'm a tequila fan, also Campari and who can go wrong with St. Germain. Each cocktail was perfectly crafted per customer. This one was served in a gorgeous detailed glass and a served with a metal straw. Normally I'm not a fan of the metal straws but in this case it didn't bother me. I'm pescatarian so some of the sandwiches I wasn't able to try. I did try the "Gentle Thoughts" sandwich. The asparagus was perfectly cooked. I liked how the books were opened to the recipe in the book for the highlighted sandwiches. There was also guest chefs! I was a huge fan of Speedy Romeo's spin on a sandwich. It was like watching a Top Chef challenge. The sandwich was thin slices mozzarella with a bread crumb sprinkled on top and a pea purée filler. The chef, Justin Bazdarich had his bowls all lined up and he prepared each one with such precision. He was also super nice and made me a couple veggie versions without the pancetta for little ol' me. After some libations, people were in the mood to socialize! I got the inside scoop of the zombie looking arm holding a sandwich enamel lapel pins hidden in the back room on some tables! (Designed by Love and Victory). So happy I scored one. I even met the chef, Tyler Kord! It was a night to remember! Thanks for the magical evening, Weather Up, No. 7 North and Tyler Kord! I woke up in need of coffee, sporting a new sandwich temporary tattoo, owning a new inspiring cookbook, adoring my rad new enamel pin and wit wonderful memories! read more

Weather Up was the perfect place to meet up with my uomo* friend for a highly needed pre-dinner drink last night. Oh wait, I actually ended up having dinner there. Whoops. So much for just pre-dinner! For drinks, I had the Satan Cocktail (bourbon based) and he had The Astoria (gin based). Satan certainly packs a wallop in his beverages. I had a sip of his Astoria and found it to be a much kinder respite than the one Satan was providing. Still, mine was certainly enjoyable; I just wouldn't recommend it on an empty stomach. ... which is where the food comes in. After asking for my cocktail I placed an order for the steak tartare. I'm a big fan of raw meat and I always feel compelled to try tartare whenever it is offered (on a menu). About halfway through Satan's alley I received my meal. I immediately popped the egg yolk to let its delicious fluid seep into the cow canvas beneath. The meat was juicy, tender, and perfectly seasoned. The points were lightly toasted with just a trace of butter that was noticeable with every nibble. So delectable. The atmosphere of Weather Up is very laid back and casual which is why it was chosen in the first place. It's a great place to meet up with friends and have a conversation without worrying if you're talking too loud in an underground speakeasy. I really liked that. I also really liked the bartender who reminded me of a mix between Henry Cavill (the next Superman) and Richard Madden (Robb Stark from GOT). What's a good drink without some good eye candy? *Google it read more

PHANTOM CHARGES on my bill! Popped in here for weeknight cocktails with a friend only to be disappointed finding charges for additional drinks on my guest check. I thought the place was cute, the cocktails were great, but to echo what another reviewer mentions, it appears that they will attempt to bolster up the final bill. They don't provide a paper receipt, instead, they present you with the credit card reader to tap your card, so it is easy to overlook any excess charges. Their phone number is disconnected, so don't bother calling either. read more

It is a very bad cocktail bar. The staff is very rude and their drinks are nothing but full of ice and don't taste like anything. You basically drink water with ice. Don't waste your time and money here. read more

A cool and trendy bar in Tribeca which is a great spot for a date or just to grab some drinks with friends. Despite what some other recent reviews claim, I've never had an issue getting service here or with my bill. What people have to understand is that this is a cocktail bar with sophisticated hard to make cocktails. These take time to make properly and won't be slung out with the ease of a vodka soda you might get at another bar. The mixologists here take their craft seriously and it shows in the quality of the drinks. The one downside is it is expensive with cocktails costing $19. That being said, I would recommend this as a place to grab a few drinks. read more

Weather Up - Espresso martini and a rum based coffee drink. - Bars Near Me - New York, New York

It's sad because I used to love this place but their current management and serving staff is INTOLERABLE. Not only are they beyond RUDE by act like you are an inconveniencing them by having a drink at their establishment but their drinks are a total SCAM, giving you less than a 3oz. cocktail with a massive amount of ice. AVOID their server Christina at all costs if you want to have an enjoyable night. read more

(11/10/2022 visit) Weather Up was a great bar. No More. Took 10 minutes to order some poorly made drinks at opening. Inattentive and unkempt bar and staff. Hottest dive bar in Tribeca. read more

Had a very shocking experience here a few weeks back. The staff treated my partner and I as though we were SUCH a bother to them. 1. No one was at the entrance when we came in, so we waited around for a few minutes for the host, but no one came up (though it was not busy at all). We decided to proceed into the restaurant to sit down (with our MASKS on still), after which the manager (we later found out) lazily approached us and rudely barked at us, asking "where we thought we were going" and that we could not just walk right in and seat ourselves. It was very shocking, but we let that one slide. 2. The waitress, Christina, took ages to come to our table each time (mind you there were maybe 3 other tables at the time and plenty of other waiters / staff on duty) and when I asked some questions about the menu, she ROLLED HER EYES several times at my clarifying questions about the food (even though I have a food allergy and NEED to ask these things). 3. The cocktails we received were horrible (GIANT ice cubes, barely 1/4 of the glass full if you take them out). 4. When the check came, the manager (not the waitress) dropped the check on the table and silently waited until we picked it up and paid... It was truly mind-blowing - felt like we were the most unwanted guests. NEVER returning to this place and do not recommend going there if you are looking for a pleasant relaxing time. read more

Just a review for later evening cocktails. Excellent. Loved sitting with a group at a large table. Nice looking bar too. read more

Weather Up - Bars Near Me - New York, New York

Weather Up's no-name storefront at once signals confidence and exclusivity. The menu would do Putin proud, featuring as it does Ossetra caviar and a small yet interesting selection of cocktails and wines. The local favorites include the tequila-based El Diablo and the Keep Calm and Carry On--a made-to-order drink that can be anything you want. The potato chips are crunchy and relatively affordable. I quite like the setting and the space, including the subway tiles, the seating at the bar and by the windows. Highly recommended as a prelude to an evening in Tribeca. read more

I was actually excited to come to this place, didn't realize we had such a cool speakeasy bar in the neighborhood. The hostess was nice and welcoming, the interior was bright and lively. I liked their booth seating, perfect for bigger groups of 4-ish people. We sat down at the booth behind the bar, got the menus, I asked for the bartender's choice, and it just wend downhill from there. I told our waitress I like bubbly, and something sweet at the moment, she said great, the bartender will fix up something cool for you. Maybe my expectation was too high, but my drink came, and it tasted like a normal glass of champagne. OK, it did have a hint of pear, which turned out to be some pear liquor he put into the champagne. So that's it?! Bartender's choice = champagne + pear liquor?? I'm pretty sure I can make that at home. I'm not saying I needed something fancy with dry ice coming out of the glass, but I was honestly expecting something a little less "boring". Anyways, I let it go, because everyone else seemed to enjoy their drinks. THEN, something magical happened, either a cork, or a piece of ice, hit the back of my head. I wasn't bleeding or anything, but it stings. I looked around, both bartenders at the bar didn't seem to notice or care, our waitress came over and asked what's wrong, so I told her some object hit my head. She apologized, but also followed the apology with saying your seating is right behind the bar, so unfortunately sometimes it does happen. I mean WHAT?! I've sit enough times either at the bar, or behind the bar at numerous places, not once, have I ever been hit in the back of my head by anything. Now somehow I'm the one to blame for choosing the seat?! OK, to sum it all up, the drinks were not impressive enough to compensate for the fact some foreign object hit my head. If you have to come here, do me a favor and try not to sit at the booth behind bar. read more

"Same same but different". This is the name of one of my favorites cocktails. It's not served at Weather Up however, but at 1534, and coincidentally it happens to be the perfect sentence for me to define what I think about this. Weather up Tribeca is not the only one. His sister bar is located at Prospect Heights and its the original location. A favorite of mine, where I don't pay more visits just because the location is not convenient at all. And you know, Weatherup is the last name of this joint's owner. And their bartenders in Brooklyn is said were trained by Milk & Honey's Sasha Petraske. And although this is just extra information, maybe only for cocktails geeks, I thought the general public should know too, for what you should expect when coming here. We are talking about high scale cocktails within NYC context. The competition is high. "Same same .." imagine a larger version of their Brooklyn brother but in the middle of Tribeca. I was quite pleased to see the same white tiles on the wall, the same dim lighting. The built-in stools?.. well, not really, as those are not the most comfortable, but again all seems to be the same at the end. The menu was quite similar too. While there is only 6 cocktails and the generic bartender's choice open to any possibility, at Brooklyn it was quite enough as all the drinks we had were one better after the other. They made up the initial disappointment of having so little choices, and somehow a bartender choice in Brooklyn worked so well and not only once. Now, we were saying: "same same... but different" because this time this very little choices wasn't enough. I'm not gonna say that our drinks weren't good because they were. The flavors were balanced but I found it not that original neither that strong. I missed those ones where the ice is present working on your drink but without watering it down. Where the sweetness of the fruits or the particular taste from the herbs made it exciting, a pleasure to drink but an strong drink after all. Also, the bartenders were nice but in a emotionless way. I recognize that a 3.5 rating should be more fair and what really makes me drop it down is that I couldn't stand the general ambiance that night. While the place inspire a quiet night the reality is that it was loud, and the bar occupied by people who doesn't really know how to have a drink. I'm having the feeling that speakeasies seems nowdays just an intention and a name. Add to this that the list of cocktails is too short. For those who know me they would probably say "you doesn't sounds very excited about it" .. they know me well. I'm not excited at all and is not in my plan to return soon. We went to B-Flat afterwards ... it looks the same but it was certainly different. Cheerfully, in a much better way. read more

Weather Up is a good little drinking spot in FiDi that is definitely not your typical finance bro hangout. It has a French bistro feel with shiny white tiles and dim, soft lighting. It had an upscale vibe without being stuffy. The positives are that is was not packed with tons of happy hour bro's and the drinks were great from regular old vodka and sodas as well as the Moscow mule I ordered. There were some small plates as well from the oysters to the sausage and mustard to the burrata and toast. The burrata was by far the best. The negatives were that drinks were a little on the pricey side and the service was not very good at the bar. We constantly had to wave the bartenders down to get their attention. One time, I watched a bartender messing around on his phone, not paying attention to the customers while I tried to get his attention to order a drink. read more

Weather Up was another yelp find. My friends and I were headed to Rosanjin and since the former didn't have a bar, we were looking for a casual bar to hang before dinner. It's got the air of a speakeasy, or toasting to the prohibition days. There's no signage, and you have to be laser focused on the address on the door. The space is fun! Wood floors, roomy booths, and a cocktail list to die for. The cocktails all have creative names, and while we didn't order any, I think that they could be super tasty and ridiculously creative from the names alone. Weather Up would have easily gotten four stars from if we didn't have the "Oh I'm so great waitress that I don't want to do anything for you service." We ordered a dozen oysters (hello TIP BOOSTER!) and we had to ask for silverware, plates, and napkins. It wasn't the asking, it was the attitude of how we seemed to be asking for way too much. I might have been more understanding if the place was packed, but happy hour wasn't even in full swing. read more

On 4/6/2022 someone I know came here was had their drink spiked with what seems to be Rohypnol. They are thankfully ok. This is not the establishments fault but I just wanted to warn people that there are some shady people hanging out at this place and tk be careful. Please cover your drinks at all time and if you have any doubts your drink is safe don't take the chance. read more

Look at my past reviews and you'll see a disproportionate number of great ratings vs. crappy ratings. Why? Because I'm not a complainer. I'm the guy at a restaurant who orders ABC and they bring EFG and I'm still happy, going to eat it, and pay minimum 20% grat. Here's the thing though. My wife and I l, after a full day of work and traveling late to NYC, check into our hotel and take a quick Uber over to this bar. We were excited to be there because we read decent reviews about it. We arrive at the bar, literally about an hour and a half or so ago, and find 4 people working behind it. A girl, Asian guy, and 2 other guys. The 2 other guys preferred to talk to their friends at the end of the bar the entire 20 minutes we were there. One of them was drinking a Lone Star while working (cool look bro). The girl was making drinks and the Asian guy ran off somewhere and was never to be seen again. We literally sat there for the longest time waiting for ANYONE to greet us. We didn't even get waters. We had time to literally Yelp what other bar was nearby and thankfully Ward III was nearby. Go there instead. As we were getting up to leave the female bartender (the only one working) asked us if we wanted drinks. No thanks. PASS ON THIS PLACE. Honestly, just don't even... you'll be disappointed. The bar smells nice but the bar counter is extremely sticky and while we sat in agony wondering WTF we got to look at about 20 empty dirty glasses in front of us that no one cared to take away. The forecast is in on Weather Up. IT'S A CAT 5. RUN AWAY. read more

We had an excellent evening here, enjoying post-dinner drinks. Not very crowded for a Saturday night but good buzz. Had a couple of nice Mezcal-based drinks. Attentive service and a nice spot at the back of the bar. We'll be back... read more

Note to self: there are 2 locations for Weather Up in NY. I pick Weather Up for a date given the reviews on here. After my date went to this location accidentally instead of the one in Brooklyn that was right by where we both lived (d'oh), I played the part of the gentleman and came back into the city. Weather Up is what I expected: a nice cocktail bar. I loved the subway-ish tiles on the ceiling, and the fact that the place wasn't dominated by wood paneling like most cocktail bars. I definitely wish it was a bit brighter in there though. Service was friendly enough, although a bit slow. I got a whiskey cocktail that was a take off on an old fashioned. It was alright, definitely not worth the $16 price tag. I was going to go more adventurous, but after trying my date's more unique mezcal cocktail, I reneged on that (read: did NOT like haha). Overall for the price point this place wasn't bad, it was just sort of blah. In this sense the bar matched the date; not bad by any means, just not all that remarkable. For these prices, even a speakeasy has to produce a great atmosphere or one-of-a-kind cocktail; since that didn't happen here, I probably won't be back unless this absolutely fits the bill for some reason. Oh well, worth a shot and you can definitely do worse. read more

Cute atmosphere with good lighting and a trendy environment. Great for meeting friends or dates where you can actually hear each other but enough noise/ music (older and newer funk and classics) to break awkward silences. Good cocktail menu but limited appetizer menu for vegetarians or pescatarians not seeking fried food. Amazing G&T and Moscow Mule. Service was decent considering we sat in the corner, however we had to flag down our waiter once or twice which is to be expected. Overall good place to hang out with friends and meet for a drink. read more

Have been coming here for years and just wanted to say I'm extremely impressed with how resilient this business has proven to be during the pandemic. The cocktails here are fantastic, outdoor setup is great, and jazz on Fridays is fantastic. Highly, highly recommend! By far my favorite spot in the neighborhood for a drink & good company. read more

I'm not sure what can be said about Weather Up that hasn't already been covered. A really long bar with annoying built in seats (seriously did the owners not try these before installing it?), and plenty of space for standing around which means it fills up pretty well at night with Wall Street types. The bartenders are excellent and can make anything you ask for. I can't say I care for the small menu (I think there was maybe 6 drinks on) but some of these places really want you to go conversational which can be annoying if you've had a lot of the standards and want to branch out or see what the bartenders are really capable of. I'm surprised that proprietors haven't yet figured out that part of what makes Death and Company the best cocktail bar in Manhattan is there incredibly deep & wide menu of drinks. Anyway, that's just a pet peeve of mine, YMMV. Even though the bar area was PACKED we were able to secure a table without much waiting time which was surprising. The waitstaff has a separate service bar they can go to for drinks which can help speed things up. This is an excellent pre-Bouley cocktail location as it is right next door. read more

The atmosphere and drinks were fine. Now please whatever you do - RESIST THE URGE to order from the BAR MENU! Ordered Cevice... after a few bites realized that there is something seriously wrong there. My friend said it "tasted funny". It kind of tasted like sewage smells. I had to send it back to replace it with shrimp cocktail- BIG MISTAKE! We both took a bite and while looking at each other, stopped chewing and spit it into the napkin. It tasted rotten. Disgusting!!!!! read more

I stumbled onto this bar with a group of people and we ended up leaving but kind of sad we did. The place was dark, but not so dark that it was cheesy and couldn't see anyone else. The bar was really well stocked and when I looked through their cocktail menu and didn't find any bourbon based ones I mentioned that to the bartender and he asked me if I wanted something strong, sweet or citrus. I said strong and a few minutes later, voila! A tasty bourbon cocktail with a little bit of orange in it. A twist on an old-fashioned strong, but not so strong that some of my group couldn't take it-although strong enough that they didn't want another sip. Tasty enough that I got another. Nice to see there's a fancier end cocktailery that doesn't take forever to make a drink. read more
