Our organization hosted an event at Harriet's Rooftop Restaurant & Bar at 1 Hotel Brooklyn Bridge,…read moreand unfortunately, the experience was extremely disappointing. During the sales process, I made it abundantly clear that we would only move forward if we could be placed in one of the rooftop spaces with views of the Manhattan skyline and Brooklyn Bridge--not the Liberty space. I was assured this request would be accommodated. Upon arrival, however, we discovered that we had been assigned to the Liberty space, the one area I specifically said would not meet our needs. When I raised the issue, management offered no meaningful solution. A simple request to allow our guests access to a small section for photographs was flatly denied. Rather than attempting to resolve a problem that originated within their own organization, the management team seemed focused on explaining why nothing could be done. Merle, the Director of Banquets and Events, was professional and courteous and made an effort to help, but others in management showed little interest in accommodating a client who had invested significantly in food, beverage, and event space. What made the experience even worse was the complete lack of follow-up. Despite multiple managers being involved that evening, days passed without a single phone call, email, or acknowledgment from anyone in leadership. Only after I sent a detailed email outlining my concerns and copied the area manager did I receive a response from Murat Erbil, the Area Director of Restaurants, Nightlife, and F&B Operations. Unfortunately, his response was dismissive and portrayed the situation as though the team had done everything possible to accommodate us, which was simply not true. At no point did anyone acknowledge the breakdown in communication that led to the issue or take ownership of the fact that reasonable accommodations were available but intentionally denied. I oversee more than 50 events nationwide each year and work with venues across the country. Rarely have I encountered a venue so unwilling to make even the smallest accommodation to address its own mistake. Better communication and a genuine commitment to customer service could have made all the difference. Based on this experience, I will not be returning to Harriet's Rooftop or conducting future business with 1 Hotel Brooklyn Bridge. Event planners and organizations looking for a venue should understand that the promises made during the sales process may not reflect the experience they ultimately receive.

I've been here for many events and catch ups with friends, if you're looking for a view and a cool…read morespot, this would be the place. My favorite time coming here during happy hour, or during brunch on the weekends when it is less busy and more restaurant than club. Happy hour, is it exactly cheap but you're paying for the view with this type of spot so I don't mind the tiny martinis that are definitely overpriced when I get to have a fun view with great music. Personally, I have felt at the hosts are usually a bit colder but the waitresses I've had have always been wonderful. Another note, this is not the place to go if you were in a rush. The kitchen isn't on the same floor as the bar so it does take a minute for things to come up. For the food, everything is actually tasty. Nothing groundbreaking but all a good option to order. Personal favorites are the Buttermilk Fried Chicken, Bavarian Soft Pretzel or the Haas Avocado Guacamole.

I like this spot I've been three times. Twice for happy hour and once for a night time party. The…read morehappy hour is a good time. They have a dj come in around 6pm and both times they were good. Mixed genres so a little something for everyone in the crowd. The small bites are decent and the drinks are good. I do think the pitchers to share are over priced $85 but the mini martini flights are a good value 3 for $24. The view and decor is very pretty and the service has always been efficient and pleasant.

I grew up coming to Rockaway beaches so I am familiar with the area. I haven't been here in a while…read morebut I was invited to stop by the rooftop. As soon as you approach the hotel, it is already a different vibe. Once u enter, you don't feel like you are in NYC! Before I went up to the rooftop, I checked out the poolside area on the 1st floor. It was so lively with full bar and seating. There was a DJ in the back. If you continue walking, you'll bump into the pool in the back. They had cabanas and poolside chairs. With the DJ, it just gave me Miami or Vegas vibes! I proceeded to the rooftop which was another incredible experience! Staff were great and welcoming. The vibe gave me Nashville up there I am a big fan of this hotel. The hotel rooms are pretty pricey but I would return for food & drinks!

Came here on a quiet weeknight by a total mistake!…read more We came to grab some drinks at the rooftop bar and catch the sunset and gorgeous views. When we saw "Water Tower" on the elevator we decided to press it. SO GLAD WE DID. We landed at the Water Tower and walked into a fairly empty space decorated with art all the way to the ceiling, filled with natural light coming in and the views of the skyline were out of this world. We had to try their drinks of course to enjoy with the incredible view. Though the drinks are $21 and served in a plastic cup that evening, I was NOT expecting my drink to be this insanely delicious. I ordered the inferno Paloma which they infuse themselves with- and it was true perfection. By the way, each bar has their own menu which is pretty awesome and makes it even more fun. Also, Axel is the most incredible bartender and we absolutely loved his creations. Later that night we ordered a custom mandarin margarita, with a spicy twist, and WOW. He's truly talented and absolutely made us some awesome drinks that we can't stop talking about. Sunset with a view and a spicy mezcal drink? Yes and YES. We had this place all to ourselves and can't wait to be back. Friday nights they have DJ nights and you can also book the Water Tower for your own private events which is pretty cool!

It was not overly crowded and not too hot, with a nice breeze. We grabbed a high-top table in the center of the venue, and there are various seating options, including bar seats, lounge furniture, and additional tables throughout. My friends ordered margaritas while I opted for a beer (they only serve beer in cans or bottles, nothing on draft) Beers were about $10 while cocktails were around $18, fairly standard pricing for NYC rooftop bars. Our server was attentive and friendly. The menu also includes a small selection of food, although we did not order anything during this visit. The music was at a comfortable volume, making it easy to have a conversation, and the colorful, playful décor gave it a fun vibe. There isn't much of a view, since the rooftop is not especially high, but it's still a good rooftop option in the East Village, especially if you are looking for a casual place to catch up with friends over drinks. While the prices are not cheap, they are in line with what you can expect from both NYC rooftops and the East Village dining scene.
