Rooftop Dining In NoMad Is Better Than Ever
New Yorkers know there’s nothing quite like dining al fresco high above the city streets. And rooftop dining in NoMad is now better than ever. Offering unmatched views, artisanal cocktails, and chef-curated menus, these NoMad rooftop restaurants set a new standard for dining and hospitality.
Whether you’re looking for a vibrant rooftop bar in NoMad or an elegant NoMad rooftop restaurant NYC experience, the neighborhood has options to suit every palate and occasion.
The Rooftop at The NoMad Hotel Opens
The NoMad Hotel, located at 1170 Broadway at 28th Street, is home to one of the most luxurious NoMad rooftop dining experiences: The Rooftop at The NoMad. Known for its breathtaking interiors, The Rooftop at the NoMad seamlessly blends its signature style into the outdoor space, creating a haven of comfort and sophistication.
The Rooftop at the NoMad has cleverly recreated the unique look of the hotel’s iconic interiors in this gorgeous outdoor space. The space is luxuriously tented and draped, replete with multiple chandeliers and lanterns hung from on high. Elegant black and gold damask-covered chairs and Persian rugs provide an indoor feel. But the fresh air and unobstructed views of Manhattan let you know you’re unmistakably outside. Other details like tufted leather banquettes, leather and wood screens, and potted palms in over-sized ceramic pots add to the turn-of-the-century inspired décor.
The Rooftop at the NoMad is open every day for breakfast, lunch, and dinner with offerings by Chef Michael Reilly & Abram Bissell. Kick off your outdoor occasion with one its signature NoMad cocktails – the Nod to Nothing (a gin gimlet with floral notes) is a favorite. Then, try the Fisher Island oysters, prawn cocktail, or caviar. Or go straight for the NoMad Chicken Dinner complete with black truffle & foie gras stuffing and “all the fixings.”
You’ll want to make a reservation, as this venue will surely be in high demand. Due to limited seating capacity, reservations are currently limited to 2 hours.
