Rory's Rooftop Bar

On our lists of the best rooftop bars and cocktail bars in New York.

Puttery, the five-level mini-golf and nightlife complex that opened in the Meatpacking District in 2024, hides its rooftop bar up an elevator past the courses inside. Rory's runs year-round behind heat lamps, with plush seating built for a semi-private buyout as easily as a walk-in crowd. Food leans toward grazing rather than a sit-down meal: ceviche, crispy bites and street-food riffs meant for sharing. Cocktails run from fresh-pressed citrus mixes to rum and tequila drinks built around house infusions, served from early afternoon into the night on weekends.
