Grand Banks

The chicest floating oyster bar in NYC. Featuring yellow-and-white striped awnings, tiny white tables, and a menu of oysters, lobster rolls, french fries, and carafes of rosé and white wine on tap, Grand Banks is a celebrated spot aboard a historic wooden boat. Start your weekend off with oysters and a glass of rosé, all served alongside stunning views of the downtown skyline. Come for after-work happy hour, day drinking with friends, date night, or just any reason in general.

The Menu: Features an array of fresh seafood and all-natural ingredients, as well as a rotating selection of oysters that come with "accouterments" like red wine mignonette, cucumber-coriander mignonette, and cocktail sauce. Oyster specials run from 4-6 pm, Mondays through Thursday.
