Pier I Cafe
This expansive riverside spot is in the heart of the Upper West Side - which means you can expect plenty of kids, pets, bikes, and dining options. Grab an umbrella enclosed table and order some grilled Pat LaFrieda burgers and a bucket of beers to enjoy as you take in one of the prettiest stretches of the Hudson River. Movie fans will love the Summer on the Hudson: Movies Under the Stars events, which offer free screenings every Wednesday for summertime viewing.
