Ophelia
The second coming of a spot once frequented by Frank Sinatra, Ophelia sits atop the art deco Beekman Tower, serving up stunning views and masterful sips. Yes, it's slightly pricey (drinks range from $16 to $28), but the glamorous atmosphere is worth it. High ceilings, wall-to-wall windows, and plenty of luxe banquettes make it the ideal nighttime spot. And seriously, get a load of this gorgeous bar situation.
