6 Rooftop Bars to Check Out in Brooklyn
Nothing screams summer in the city more than cocktails on a rooftop. Check out these rooftop bars in Brooklyn, because the view of the city skyline is always better when you’re looking from the outer boroughs.
Westlight
Located on the rooftop of The William Vale hotel, this super swanky bar has floor to ceilings windows displaying the beautiful city skyline. It’s a great space for year-round city views since the bar is set indoors with numerous tables outside. Try the shrimp cocktail dumplings and bass buns.

Berry Park
If you’re looking for a fun rooftop bar that won’t break the bank, this lively bar is a crowd pleaser. Although, it doesn’t have views of the NY skyline it still offers that great summer vibe. Try their popular Huckleberry Lemonade.

Kimoto Rooftop
A new rooftop at the Moxy hotel in Williamsburg. Go while it’s new and not overpopulated. So far, the drinks are spectacular (and pricey), and the vibes are chill and unpretentious.
