Clear all
Along with The Heights at Arlo Nomad, The Crown was another summer 2017 hot opening by the Three Kings Restaurant Group, aka chef Dale Talde, David Massoni and bartender John Bush. The Crown is a hip and trendy rooftop bar located on the 21st floor of Hotel 50 Bowery in Chinatown, with some of the most spectacular views lower Manhattan has to offer.
Super relaxing outdoor lounge area (often reserved for bottle service)
East side seating
Aside from its neighboring Lower East Side rooftops at Public Hotel and Mr. Purple, no other place in the area really competes with The Crown. The rooftop bar is the first of its kind: located between Chinatown’s Canal and Bayard streets, the neighborhood’s low skyline gives way to the most spectacular unobstructed 360-degree views that stretch from the Midtown skyline to the Brooklyn Bridge, Downtown Manhattan to Williamsburg. Not many places in the city have such an impressive viewpoint on Uptown Manhattan.
Gourmadela behind the scenes! What a view!
Talk about drinks with a view!
The Crown has two outdoor patios, and an indoor bar with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the terrace view. The outdoor lounge seating is (unfortunately) often reserved for bottle service, whereas indoors is open to all. Service is super friendly, which can’t be said of many New York City rooftops.
View from the indoor bar surrounded by panoramic glass windows
As one would expect from chef Talde, an Asian twist is present everywhere, from the drinks (signature cocktails include the Black Dragon Tea and the East India) to the bar bites menu. For warm summer day-time drinks, cool off with one of their fun boozy icies!
Even the Chips & Guac have an Asian twist to them (with a view!)
There’s no place like The Crown (or Hotel 50 Bowery for that matter) in Chinatown. Get there close to opening hours to avoid reserved table service, and have frozen drinks and Asian-fusion cocktails with unprecedented sweeping Manhattan views.
