The Boathouse Outdoor Bar offers a wonderful dining experience in a beautiful spot within Central Park. Guests can enjoy a lovely ambience and a pleasant crowd while savoring their meals, especially the delicious lobster roll. The seating next to the water provides stunning views of the lake and surrounding park, making it an iconic location for lunch on a beautiful day. The food is generally good, and the setting is perfect for enjoying the sights of boats and the lake. Service is often attentive, with staff members going above and beyond to make occasions special. Many visitors appreciate the friendly and happy hostesses who ensure seating near the water, and the food received high praise, with some calling their experience exceptional. The menu is great, and service during meals is quick and responsive. The restaurant's beautiful setting at sunset makes it a fabulous spot for a special occasion. Although some reviews mention that the bar seating area outside could be larger to accommodate more guests for pre-dinner cocktails, overall the atmosphere is lively and inviting. Visitors note that there is no rush to vacate tables, allowing for a relaxed experience. The setting, combined with good food and attentive service, makes The Boathouse a perfect choice for dates, friends, and families looking to enjoy scenic views and a memorable meal in Central Park. Clear signs directing to the restaurant would help visitors find it more easily, but its unique surroundings greatly enhance the visit.
