Situated in the heart of Manhattan’s Theater District, Starchild Rooftop combines sweeping skyline views with the energy of a late-night lounge. Alongside its menu of classic cocktails and refined bar snacks, the venue hosts a well-known ‘Happier Hour’ from 8-11 PM. Consequently, it has become a favored spot for Broadway performers and theater enthusiasts, supported by weekly programming and late-night DJ sets.

Furthermore, the design mirrors the vibrancy of its surroundings, with ceilings adorned in disco balls and a custom ‘Funktion-One’ sound system heightening the experience. On the beverage side, highlights include the ‘Ticking Teenage Timebomb,’ a clarified tequila cocktail with absinthe yogurt, the ‘Sunchaser,’ an Australian whiskey Collins with yuzu curd, and the ‘Nitro Espresso Martini,’ poured from a nitro keg for an ultra-creamy finish, also available in tower format. To accompany these drinks, offerings range from “spicy salmon tartare cones with avocado to wagyu and foie gras dumplings with maple-soy dipping sauce.”
