Perched atop the Library Hotel on Madison Avenue, Bookmarks Lounge is a chic rooftop bar offering a quiet escape from Midtown’s hustle, just a short walk from major concert venues like Grand Central’s Pershing Square and Bryant Park. This upscale spot specializes in tapas-style small plates, handcrafted cocktails, and a literary-themed atmosphere that feels both smart and stylish. Surrounded by skyline views and cozy fireplaces, it’s a favorite for those looking to kick back with a drink before heading to a show.
Minutes from Midtown’s most popular music halls, Bookmarks is ideal for a relaxing pre-show drink and bite. With its rooftop setting and surprisingly quiet, intimate vibe, it’s a great escape before the energy of a live show. The service is noted for being efficient, which means you can enjoy a cocktail and still make it to the venue in time.
Reviewers love the ambiance—from the rooftop garden setting to the literary-themed décor. Drinks are often described as creative and well-crafted, and while the food menu is small, the tapas-style dishes are praised for their quality and presentation. Many guests appreciate the calm, uncrowded feel even during prime hours, and the staff is frequently described as welcoming and attentive.
The food menu is limited, so don’t expect a full dinner experience—think more light bites and cocktails. Seating is first-come, first-served, so it can fill up quickly on nice evenings. Also, prices lean toward the higher end, especially for drinks, though many say the atmosphere justifies it.
If you’re looking for a stylish, quiet rooftop bar with skyline views and small plates before your show, Bookmarks is a hidden Midtown gem worth checking out.
