Perched 27 stories high, Starchild offers a sublime lounge experience in Midtown. Its cocktails, bar snacks and panoramic views are rivaled only by its soundtrack and vibe. Frequented by an eclectic mix of guests, all are welcome and the energy is one-of-a-kind. With a retractable roof that transforms it from open-air to climate-controlled in seconds, the Starchild experience is available year-round.

On Friday and Saturday nights, the heat is turned up with DJ sets from 10-2, with revelrous cocktail and bottle service, and entry is at the discretion of the door.

    Starchild will now be a regular spot for my NYC weekend trips. Making a reservation (and modifying it) & checking in was so easy! The staff is friendly, accommodating & communicative. The DJ on Friday night was *chefs kiss* and the views are beautiful. The drinks were yummy!

    ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS! Best date night spot. Delicious drinks & highbrow atmosphere. Short and sweet casual menu- food also delicious and well balanced. Great portions. Staff is super friendly! On the pricey side but worth it

    I guess we thought it would be a restaurant with a great view ! It had a great view ! But seemed only to be bar snacks - which were ok - the view was really nice!
    Starchild Rooftop Bar & LoungeResponded on 21 May 2024
    Hello JoeP, we appreciate your feedback and are glad to hear that you enjoyed the view! We apologize if you felt our bar snacks didn't quite match up to the view. Your comments will definitely be taken into consideration as we continuously strive to improve our menu. We look forward to hopefully welcoming you back soon.

    Starchild Rooftop Bar in NYC is like stepping into a dream amidst the city's hustle and bustle. Seriously, the views alone are jaw-dropping, and the vibe? magic. The staff is super friendly, and the tasty! Go for any of the espresso martinis. From the twinkling lights to the mouthwatering menu, Starchild is like a little slice of paradise in the concrete jungle. I’m counting down the days until i can go back!

    First time in New York City. Came here with some friends I don’t think I’ll ever forget the views from this place. Bar makes a great old-fashioned also.
