If you really want to experience NYC in the summer, you must visit a rooftop bar. Refinery Rooftop provides upscale drinks with views of Empire State Building, but more intimate than the better known 230 5th Ave rooftop.

Is there any better way to enjoy a summer's day, than on a floating dock? The Frying Pan is one of the best spots in NYC to drink on the water front. It's a fun, vibrant atmosphere to spend a summer afternoon.

Love this casual seafood restaurant. Get ready to get messy if you order one of their Boils, but so worth it!

Parks & Nature

Conservationist New Yorkers fought to keep the Highline standing by turning it into one of the most beautiful parks in NYC. As you walk down the Highline, you can enjoy the perfectly landscaped path, and stop to pick up a snack from one of the various food trucks along the way.

Essentials

Only two things are certain in NYC. There is a starbucks and a Duane Reade on every corner. Duane Reade is NYC's equivalent to Rite Aid, Walgreens, etc. You can pick up snacks, beers, toiletries, or any other household need.
