Got in easy, but the bar wasnt open and now we have to wait in a 30+ min line to leave. We’re trapped here.
I can't rate anything other than the atmosphere, as we just walked in to check the place out. Located in a huge old water tank on top of the new Arlo Hotel (the former Williamsburg Hotel), the 360° view is just amazing!
Always a pleasure.
Cozy spot with amazing panoramic views of the Manhattan skyline and a great gin selection. The service was incredible. The bartender was very personable and took his time telling me the history and flavor profile of various gins.
Views were nice, but $45 for 2 drinks was ridiculous.
We had an incredible experience at The Water Tower Bar! The bar offers a stunning city skyline view that really sets the mood. A special shoutout to General Manager Witmark, who made us feel very comfortable and welcomed throughout our visit. Our bartender, Jasmine, was so friendly and crafted amazing drinks. We’ll definitely be back for another great time
Such a beautiful view of the city! The climb to the bar entrance was great for photo ops. I expected a classier experience once inside. Drinks were served in plastic cups which I totally get for a weekend club vibe. However I was there on a very chill weekday. There wasn’t really a cocktail list to choose from so just winged it. My friend’s mocktail was overpriced and just ok. My drink was blah. Design wise, there’s an opportunity for more seating inside. All in all, good place to grab a quick beer or glass of wine and take some pics.
I like it! ??????✌?

The security person was extremely rude. We arrived at the door after a long day of walking around the neighborhood and came here to enjoy the sunset. We didn't even get to enter. We told him how many people we were (4 people) he spent 20 seconds looking at us up and down as if we were criminals and without saying anything, he turned around and left. Never in my life had I experienced such a disastrous and aggressive attitude from a person. Stop hiring people like this, and clients, stop supporting places that have these superiority and discrimination treatments

It’s horrible & so inconsiderate that this bar has the music this loud. I’ve been to this location before and it’s fun, but it’s gotten to a point that the noise level is impacting the neighborhood negatively.
The cocktails are ready in advance, surely industrial in a bottle..., and are served in plastic cups. We expect better when the glass is 20€. This is what a pina colada looks like...the bartenders are nice

The view is beautiful. Drinks aren’t cheap which is expected. The bartender at the top of the water tower on Friday night was super entitled - I did not tip on a single 14 dollar high noon which she didn’t even open for me and then she refused to give me water after… luckily another person working saw this go down and got me a glass (even though she tried to stop them). The entitlement and attitude was insane when she couldn’t even be bothered to open the can.
