There's no sign for this dark-paneled sanctuary, so be sure to look for the large red drapes in the window. There's also a strictly enforced dress code, although exceptions have been made for New York Rangers. In the glory days of Mark Messier, this was reportedly one of the favorite after-game spots.

This unassuming bar skews toward a younger crowd and tends to get a bit loud and crowded on weekends. However, the live DJs can be quite good, and the selection of beers isn't bad either. In other words, if you're in the mood, this can be a pretty fun place.

It's hard to beat the experience of sipping champagne as you gaze out across Central Park at the New York skyline. The fact that you're doing it standing atop one of the world's greatest museums is even more remarkable. Open only during the warm-weather months.
