Bar 54 · Rooftop Bar · New York
Times Square's highest rooftop bar, 54 floors up at Hyatt Centric Times Square
Bar 54 is the highest rooftop bar in Times Square, 54 floors up at the Hyatt Centric Times Square at 135 West 45th Street, and it bills itself as New York City's highest hotel cocktail bar. From this height the view takes in Midtown and lower Manhattan, with the lights of Times Square below. It is a strong pick for sunset drinks, a date night with a view, or a drink before a show in the Theater District around it.
The space splits between an indoor lounge and an expansive outdoor terrace, so guests can mingle inside or step out for the skyline. The cocktail menu changes with the seasons and draws on local influences, and every drink on it is an original from the bar team.
The list is built for grazing over well-made cocktails: the current menu runs the Bar 54 Signature Frose and My Secret Garden, plus wine and sparkling by the glass, alongside small plates meant to share, including a 54 Charcuterie Board, Lioni Latticini burrata, wagyu sliders, chicken empanadas, and truffled russet potato wedges. The kitchen runs from 5:00 PM to 11:00 PM, so time your table if you want to make a light dinner of it.
Bar 54 is open daily from 4:00 PM, until midnight Sunday through Thursday and until 1:00 AM on Friday and Saturday. It closes on some dates for private events, so check before settling on a night. Reservations are taken on Resy.

Frequently asked about Bar 54

What is the dress code at Bar 54?
Bar 54 keeps an upscale nightlife dress code: stylish, dressed-up attire. Avoid athletic wear, gym shoes, and overly casual looks. Your host manages the door with your table, and we confirm the current policy with your booking.

Table guests generally arrive as the room fills, with the peak on weekends. Your MyRSVP host coordinates a specific arrival window so you are not waiting in line.
