Let's be real-- you come here for the water views . If you're expecting to be blown away by the place itself...can't help you. Get a strong drink and a seat outside , and enjoy the atmosphere

Eater

The sweeping Brooklyn views at this waterfront bar are ace no matter the time of day. But the best bet is to arrive early, as Watermark tends to get busy during the week with the afterwork crowd. Read more

Watermark houses a sophisticated dining experience that is meant to merge unparalleled views with top-shelf dining. Killer cocktails , American eats, and design make this a spot that’s not to miss. Read more

A simple, understated, but excellent burger . The tomato was unnoticeable, which is the best thing you can say about a tomato on a burger , and both the patty and bun had a wonderful flavor. Read more

Tough opening night but they made up for it in free cocktails . Watermelon press cocktail great, tasty hot dog with bacon . Will give it some time to settle in but welcome addition to the neighborhood .

Justin Barton

Newly rebuilt pier that has double deck . The Watermark Bar is not overly expensive , the drinks are decent and the views are amazing. The crowds also aren't big, a better alternative to the seaport

Marie Carmen

Nice place in Fidi to grab a beer . Outdoor seating right on the water overlooking Brooklyn.

Dallas Short

Awesome views , great place. Feels like a sports bar on the water. The service is ehh, but they are busy.

Henali

Food is ehh but view is beautiful during warm weather. A great new bar to check out in FiDi :)

Lili Ramirez

Cool place! Perfect for summer. It sucks that they have 3 TVs playing Fox News! Annoying!

Russell Hirschorn

Very small bar right on the water with outdoor seating . Mermaid drink looks cool, but tastes like crap. Nice for a scenic drink in good weather.

FREE tip! Avoid this place please!!! Go Anywhere else on Greenwich St If you really want a nice place. ;)

They're serving a special Frozen Margarita for NYC Cocktail Week (July 13th through the 17th). Read more

The bar should really increase the number of different beers available.

Nancy Lee

Watermark signature burger sooooo good !!!!! Drinks need a lil more liquor tho !

Kris Minkstein

Looking forward to this place opening. Drinks on the pier are going to be perfect this summer

M23

VERY GOOD Lobster Roll and only $19!!

Erica B

Amazing views , terrible service. Only 2 beer choices on the menu. No bathroom at all- you have to walk down the pier to another building, compete with tourists , and wait for 1 stall. Not worth it!

Katt

The view is beautiful and relaxing... The bar serves drinks in tiny cups..food over priced

Monica M

Pier , skyline views , modern

Kelsey L

Good views of the river . Everything else, ehh

B H

Nice view but that's the best I can say.

Ashley Yang

Cocktails were great! There were only three beer options and they were overpriced.

Laila F.

Great Blood Orange Margarita .

Brandon McGraw

Avoid. Tables outside are hoarded by two tops that refuse to leave long after they've paid. Management unwilling to accommodate more communal seating . Food and service are sub par even when seated.

Divia

No restrooms ..a big NO to an outdoor place...expensive cover price for an average bar...view is great..drinks are well mixed..!!

Nick Smolney

Free wifi = working from the waterfront :)

Pierce Pierson

I got the bourbon drink and not too strong but there's definitely booze, just too much sour. Overpriced but nice view .

Peter ValVerde

Good atmosphere

Victoria Batha

This place is awful. We ordered simple food half hour ago and it still isn't here. It isn't crowded . We were just told that our waitress left to go "help in the kitchen"...? What? Never again.

Marie La Rue

Standard bar food, nothing fancy here. Scenic harbor views . If you’re not a tourist , don’t bother.

San San

Lobster Roll

Frida

Moulin de Gassac guilhem rose ; lobster

Ben Gasparini

Beautiful... but service blows

Derek T. Ku

Shoutout to Roni! She's great!

Kirby Bevis

Terrible service. Took 30 min for me to get my first drink. Cheeseburger doesn't come with fries ? Bartender is reading off an ingredients list when making cocktails . Cocktails have no alcohol n them

Nazary Nebeluk

Great view but mediocre service and kinda pricey . Tiny selection of beers

Dulcita Coco

Way too overpriced for the drinks and service rendered. Beautiful views , though.

Lisa J.

closes at 9pm

Rebecca Mazza

Expensive and plastic cups. The breeze is nice though

Vik

Do not sit down inside.

Yuri Serafini

Waited more than thirty minutes for a hamburger at 2 p.m. (not even rush hour)

Anna Doherty

Service was horrible and the food was over priced. The sangria was tiny, and way too sweet. Loud pop music playing killed the mood.

Tori

No bathroom inside is a major bummer.

Claire

Cool location but the food was way overpriced.

Jessica

This place sucks. Service is terrible. No one even came over to take our order so we walked out!

Jonas Hofmann

Horrible rip off, nice location tho.

Heather Stanley

Go somewhere else in the area. The food and service suck!!

Roman Picard del Prado
