Soho House, NYC (9th Ave.)
“You’re not surrounded by many tall buildings, so you get the feeling like you’re floating on a magic carpet as you get a clear view of Manhattan and the GWB. The snob within you comes out to play as you enjoy luxury at its finest. Great lighting and design surrounds you while you relax stories above what used to be leather bars, and is now the land of the fashion victims.” - Jason Kontos, editor in chief, New York, NY

Editor's Picks, from Westport, CT to Cold Spring, NY

Summer kicks off in only a week and a half. Twelve days to be exact. Not that we're counting or anything. And when it's summer time the livin' is easy…and the drinks should be had outdoors, not in. And not just drinks, but the meals too!

New York Spaces editors come from high and low, the rural, suburban, the urban, and metropolis. You name it, we've been there, done that. So with editors scattered all over the tri-state region, who better to offer up some great suggestions of where to dine outdoors. Above are a just few of our favorite spots in our own necks of the woods that offer up great atmosphere, great food, and incredible views.
