Pod 39 Rooftop Bar

To visit the rooftop 1) use the salvation taco restaurant entrance 2) ask the hostess within restaurant to put you on the waiting list 3) when they text you in upto 30 mins they will give you a stamp

This rooftop bar might hover precariously on the edge of fratastic Murray Hill , but don't let that stop you from stopping in for a summer drink , with a glittering view of the Empire State Building. Read more

We love coming here for the beautiful rooftop bar and views , along with the expertly crafted cocktails . Beware: there can be a long wait to get up to the roof, as the space is pretty small.

Had drinks and appetizers after work in their indoor restaurant . Come early because it gets crowded fast! Ribs were to die for! Couches were comfy and romantic . Great for date night .

April Bloomfield’s Salvation Taco may be the best-known amenity at this Murray Hill hotel , but we like to think the framed roof deck is the real star. Read more

Beautiful and one of the more "chill " rooftops in the city . Expert note: get there before 4. The rooftop bar is closed but you can take your drinks to go from downstairs and skip the lines !

Original brick arches and terra cotta columns comprise a roof of century-old ruins. You’ll catch a glimpse of Freedom Tower, but it's more likely that your eyes will be on the crowd. Read more

Great rooftop with amazing cocktails and tequila selection . Vero Mango and Vida Verde are the best, plus the yummy and spicy guacamole and chips they serve up there. Great bartenders , good music .

One of the Best Rooftop Bars in Midtown. Brick wall architecture with the arches makes for a nice intimate atmosphere . Good cocktail selection . Only downside is the wait - arrive early.

Get a Greenport Harbor Devil's Plaything. A hot pepper and citrus fruit infused IPA brewed by the North Fork of Long Island brewery especially for Salvation Taco and the Pod 39 Rooftop Bar. Delicious!

Wow! I loved the whole experience. Great service and food.. Ask for the Margarita ! The rooftop is very cute ! I came at 6, best hour.

17th floor of this c.1916 "young-minded" Pod 39 Hotel . Original brick arches and terra cotta columns frame the roof, punctuated by crawling ivy, potted plants, and Mexican-tiled tables.

Plan your foray for sunset , when you can stake out one of the colorful tiled tables along the bar 's perimeter, which is lined with atmospheric red-brick archways and rust-colored column. Read more

Great cocktails , guacamole , and views of NYC. There's a Salvation Taco downstairs at the hotel entrance if you're looking to satisfy your drunk munchies

Meetings? Reschedule them at our new rooftop office--we’re just gonna spend the next 90 days sipping rosé and hanging out up here. Read more

The astonishing and breathtaking view , absolutely not a fancy place , casual and relaxed atmosphere . Great place for a drink in the evening

The drinks and view are great. Fairly priced and good atmosphere.

awesome rooftop bar , long wait to get up but quirky and cool, and delicious drinks

Ridiculous system for getting upstairs, but it's worth the horror of the wait at the downstairs bar . The rooftop is fun, packed but fairly quick service , and nice views .

Love this place, super chill , sangria pitcher for $70 equally to 10 glasses, lovely atmosphere - string lights!

Fantastic venue. Great views and beautiful architecture . The food is great too :)

Cute rooftop and nice view . Packed around 5:30 on a weekday, quieted down after 6. Try The Upside Down! Pricey but strong.

Nice place to have some time with friend and drink. Coctails are really good. Nearly no music .

Such a romantic little place! Rooftop doesn't have an amazing view but at least the decoration is! Good prices but there's a little wait.

Good views . The wait at the bar can be longer than you'd like at times but it's relaxed and outside.

Amazing rooftop bar ! Great crowd and atmosphere. The frozen watermelon margarita was lethal! ????

Went on a Friday night, no cover, but the wait took a while. It was about an hour before we could go to the roof. Very busy bar , but amazing views and good drink selection.

Beautiful rooftop and gorgeous views of the city . Perfect for summer weather. Order drinks two at a time however-- the bartenders take awhile

Come for the sunsets stay for the michelada and pork tacos

one of my least favorite roof tops , crazy line to get in and overall disappointing once you get up there.

Great place with good views . Sitting is a bit of a struggle tho

Such a great space. A little pricey but not crazy. I will definitely bring visitors to this spot.

The stamp they made you get while waiting rubs off, some transfer it to your friends! Also they don't always check for the stamp.

great view and vibe - see the Freedom Tower, Crysler and Empire State buildings all from this one spot!

This place is great happy hour spot . Get early to avoid lines that start to form around 5pm.

Great cocktails , beautiful Manhattan view !

Great view . Great hotel ! Perfect location.

Awesome space, although a bit of a douchy crowd.

Leave work early and order a pitcher of margaritas right before 5pm when everyone else starts to overcrowd the bar .

fantastic view ! Fills up quickly, so get there early if possible to avoid the line

Go here in the afternoon on weekdays and you essentially have the roof to yourself.

Nice quaint rooftop , but gets packed just after work, and service can be iffy.

Get there early (before 9pm) or they'll be a wait. Beautiful views of empire stare building and midtown

Awesome drinks but pricey ! Come prepared to spend $$

Very unique rooftop setup when compared to rest of the rooftops in NYC.

If you have foursquare, use it to find a better rooftop bar . Pod 39 looks nice at first glance, but that's where it ends. Their weak drinks don't help either

Busy weekday scene. Split a pitcher of margerita- good for 7 or so drinks

Nice low key atmosphere, friendly staff , great view at night!

Rooftop bar in NYC with drinks and tacos . What else could you want?

Pork belly soup was amazingggg. And the meatballs were almost better than the Meatball shop
