JIMMY SoHo is a classic NYC rooftop bar perched 18 stories above SoHo atop The James Hotel. One of the city's first and most beloved rooftop destinations, JIMMY features an outdoor pool deck in warm weather and a sophisticated indoor lounge with a working fireplace in colder months. Surrounded by 14-foot windows with panoramic views of Midtown, Wall Street, the Hudson River, and the bridges spanning the East River, it offers year-round appeal. The vibe shifts from cool and conversational during the day to livelier on weekend nights. A rare year-round rooftop with genuine SoHo character.

Go here if

  • You want cocktails.
  • One of NYC's original rooftop bars, with year-round indoor-outdoor versatility and a rare SoHo pool deck.
