Sweet Cafe: More an early evening locale than a late-night bar, Sweet Cafe brings new meaning to drinking at the park. Overlooking Conservatory Water, this full-service bar and snack shop has no indoor seating and boasts an oversized patio, so feel free to leave the blanket (and your worry of grass stains) at home. Select your libation at the small counter (also outdoors), and make sure to ask about the daily drink specials, which range from a Tom Collins to a frozen something-or-other on those really hot days. The venue's name can be explained by the company that owns it: Sweet Concessions, which hosts lobby bars in many Broadway and off-Broadway theaters. With an unbeatable view of the peaceful waters, live music on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and the weekend starting at 4pm, and an impressive selection of seasonal beers, it's no surprise Sweet Cafe is always packed with after-work crowds and on weekend afternoons. |
