This is one of my favorite places! A "Hidden Gem" right by the hudson River. Grab some lunch or early dinner here and sip on cold beer or a cocktail. you'll feel like you're on a vacation outside NYC. The easiest way to access this place is to walk on 83rd all the way west towards River side park and then make a left to west 79th street and enter the park that way. you'll see a long set of stone stairs, follow those right into the bar area of the Boat Basin Cafe. Enjoy!
