The coolest new cocktail lounge has officially opened in Times Square. @bowtiebarnyc —tucked inside the Renaissance Hotel—is serving insane panoramic city views and tasty bites. You can even get a giant chicken tender tower that steals the show. This is the spot for pre- and post-show drinks, after-work hangs, and celebrating just about anything. Great cocktails, tasty bites & the most incredible NYC views 🏙️

There was no experience!. Even though we created a reservation that was confirmed, there was a private event during our reservation time and we were not allowed to enter. Not sure if this was the fault of Bowtie or Open Table, but we were quite disappointed. Tough getting a post theatre meal at 10 PM without a reservation. We ended up getting street pizza and taking it back to our hotel room. Not the ending of the evening I was hoping for. Do better!!

Location, location, location. This place has that and more. Top notch service. Drinks are phenomenal. The view is the best in Times Square. Understandably, it’s pricey.

Place has a great ambiance. Not too crowded , dj playing , just the right place to be for us on a Saturday night. Away from all the noise but you get to see it while enjoying a drink . Our server Silvia was outstanding , great customer service , very kind and knowledgeable. The only downfall , and I know we were on the city , but the drink prices were a bit way too much!!! Other than that , nice place if u r staying in the hotel .
