79th Street Boat Basin Cafe

79th Street Boat Basin Cafe
If you want something a little more upscale than beers and picnic tables, consider checking out the Boat Basin Cafe, which offers cocktails as well as dining options and waiter service. Take a seat indoors at the expansive bar or, for a riverside view, at one of the tables on the adjacent patio. Drink options play up the beachy feel with tropical offerings like the mango mai tai and classic summer staples like lemonade (spiked with vodka). Make sure to get to the cafe early or be prepared to wait. Tables fill up during summer nights, with hoards of people eager to take in the views.   79th Street Boat Basin Cafe West 79th Street at the Hudson River [Photo via]
