The 10 Coziest Restaurants With Fireplaces In New York City
Keens
This legendary steakhouse has been around since 1885, serving up some of the best steak in the city. The fireplace is in the Bull Moose room, which can be rented out for small parties. 72 West 36th Street, keens.com
The NoMad
Their famous foie gras-stuffed chicken is best enjoyed in the Fireplace room, with its antique French marble hearth. The Library is now only open primarily to hotel guests after 4 p.m., but you can always migrate over the the NoMad Bar next door after the meal (there's a fireplace there, too). 1170 Broadway, thenomadhotel.com
Per Se
It doesn't get any better for fine dining on a wintry evening. Even if you can't nab a seat by the fireplace, the Central Park views will make up for it. 10 Columbus Circle, thomaskeller.com
The Lobby Bar at the Bowery Hotel
This dimly lit lobby bar, furnished with leather and velvet armchairs, Persian rugs, and a vaulted sandstone fireplace, has some of the best people-watching in town. The bar stops serving food at 5 p.m., but you can always slip next door to Gemma for some Italian grub. 335 Bowery, theboweryhotel.com
The Lambs Club
Those in search of old New York should look no further than Geoffrey Zakarian's Lambs Club. The stellar wine list and 18th-century French fireplace make this a firm post- and pre-theater favorite. 132 West 44th Street, thelambsclub.com
The Rose Bar at the Gramercy Park Hotel
Co-owned by artist Julian Schnabel, the Rose Bar is one of the city's top date spots. Tuesday and Thursdays nights are especially popular for the live jazz. 2 Lexington Avenue, gramercyparkhotel.com
The Evening Bar at the Smyth Hotel
Add this to your list of great dinner spots in Tribeca. The Evening Bar at the redesigned Smyth, a Thompson Hotel, features a double-sided fireplace and food by Andrew Carmellini, including foie gras and peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. 85 West Broadway, eveningbar.com
Bar '21' at the '21' Club
The New York City institution's bar is the perfect place to keep warm on a winter evening. Order some homemade pigs in a blanket and a Blood and Sand and your night will be complete. 21 West 52nd Street, 21club.com
The Lobby Bar at the New York Edition
Settle in with a warm drink at this bar that's open daily from 7 a.m. to 2 a.m. A live DJ performs nightly, and the superb Clocktower restaurant is just up the dramatically inviting set of stairs next to the fireplace. 5 Madison Avenue, editionhotels.com
The Writing Room
The former home of Upper East Side favorite Elaine's has turned into The Writing Room, its name a nod to the writers and artists who frequented its forebear. Request a table in "The Study," where the fireplace is buttressed by built-in bookshelves lined with hardcovers and paperbacks. Opt for the rotisserie chicken and a luscious red wine and call it a night. 1703 Second Avenue, thewritingroomnyc.com
