Dear Irving on Hudson is the Times Square rooftop outpost of Dear Irving, set on the 40th and 41st floors inside the Aliz Hotel. The official page confirms the address, 40th/41st-floor location, 21+ policy, and nightly hours. Independent editorial sources support the indoor lounge plus open-air balcony/terrace setup, making it a strong source-backed Midtown replacement candidate while Bar SixtyFive remains blocked.

Go here if

  • You want cocktails.
  • A high-floor Times Square cocktail bar with 40th/41st-floor views from the Aliz Hotel and multiple themed rooms.
  • You need some weather backup instead of a fully exposed deck.

Skip if
