- Central Park, near 72nd Street
- Lakeside dining room and terrace
- Brunch and lunch
- Seasonal: April through October
The Loeb Boathouse sits on the Central Park lake near 72nd Street — the dining room and the open terrace flush with the water, the rowboats coming back from the morning rentals, the format the city has held since 1954. The dining room reopened after a recent operational pause and the lakeside terrace is the closest the park comes to a destination restaurant.
Book the terrace for the late brunch, take the eggs benedict with the lake on the side, walk the rowboat after. The address is the right answer for the day that wants the park as the dining room and the only address in Manhattan with the lake at the right level.
