Great Surprise. After hours of browsing, we were hungry and thought it would be nice to sit out on the balcony for some coffee and to recharge. We were right! We split the chickpea bruschetta, which was phenomenal. Really fresh, great tasting ingredients, and way more than we expected for the price. That was enough for two, so we didn't try any other dishes. Coffee was good too.
A visit to the Cantor Roof Garden Bar at the Met Museum is an absolute must. Not only can you enjoy a captivating exhibit, but the panoramic views on offer are nothing short of breathtaking. While we didn't indulge in any drinks, the overall ambiance and setting were truly splendid. Here's a tip: make the most of the extended hours on Fridays and Saturdays, as the museum remains open until 9pm. The evening hours present the rooftop in its most enchanting light, although be prepared for sizable crowds. During our recent visit last week, the space was brimming with visitors, attesting to its popularity.
I've been to the Met numerous times. At first I wasn't aware about this rooftop access. Then I knew about it but never remembered to make it a stop. I finally made it today thanks to "The Roof Garden Commission: Lauren Halsey" exhibit!
The rooftop (elevator to the 5th level) has a good view of the West Side skyline across the Central Park. It'd have been worth a stop by itself, but now with Lauren Halley's Egyptian themed exhibit, the wow factor has more than doubled. We spent a good 30 minutes to soak it all in.
There is an outdoor bar right next to the entrance. You exit at a different door which leads to stairs down to the 4th floor instead of elevators. I didn't ask but I would presume a wheelchair bound person would be allowed to exit from the entrance.
