The Perfect Pre-Theater Spot: Drinks and Bites at Roof at Park South
New York City is famous for its world-class theater scene, and a night out in the city isn’t complete without a visit to one of its many iconic venues. But before the curtain rises, finding the right place to enjoy a drink or a meal can set the perfect tone for your evening. That’s where Roof at Park South comes in. Just a short distance from some of Manhattan’s top theaters, our rooftop bar and lounge offers the ideal setting for a sophisticated pre-show experience. Here’s why Roof at Park South is the perfect pre-theater spot to start your night in style.
A Central Location Near NYC’s Theater District
Located atop the Park South Hotel, Roof at Park South is conveniently situated for theater-goers heading to Midtown and beyond. We’re just a short cab ride or quick subway trip away from Broadway, the Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre, and other popular venues, making it easy to enjoy a leisurely drink or bite before making your way to the show. Our central location means you can avoid the rush and crowds of the theater district, while still being close enough to arrive at your performance with time to spare.
Craft Cocktails to Set the Mood
Nothing says “night out” like a perfectly crafted cocktail, and our menu offers something for everyone. Whether you’re in the mood for a classic drink or something a bit more adventurous, our talented mixologists are ready to help you find the perfect pre-theater libation. Try the “Loosey Goosey,” a refreshing blend of green tea-infused Grey Goose vodka, lemon, and mint, or go bold with the “Up in the Air,” featuring Woodford Reserve bourbon, Amaro Nonino, and Fragola strawberry liqueur.
For those looking to celebrate a special occasion, our selection of sparkling wines and creative spritzes add just the right touch of elegance to your evening. Each drink is crafted with care and designed to complement the vibrant atmosphere and stunning views of our rooftop.
Delicious Bites to Fuel Your Evening
Our menu, curated by Chef Samuel Jones, features a selection of delicious small plates and bar bites that are perfect for sharing before the show. Savor our popular Brisket Sliders, served with salsa verde aioli and pickled onions, or enjoy the zesty flavors of our Shrimp Tacos. For a lighter option, try the Coconut Ceviche, a refreshing blend of leche de tigre, star fruit, and tortilla chips.
If you’re in the mood for something more substantial, our Taco Trio offers a variety of flavors, including grilled steak, pulled pork, and savory mushrooms. Each dish is crafted with fresh, high-quality ingredients and designed to provide a satisfying start to your evening without leaving you too full for the show.
