Charming
Great for craft beers

Inspired by Chef Greg Baxtrom's years as an Eagle Scout, Camp 5 Acres is the seasonal outdoor extension of 5 Acres, bringing the nostalgia of an American summer camp to Rockefeller Center. The menu celebrates summertime favorites with a Short Rib Burger topped with Summer Sauce, a Lobster Roll with giardiniera mayo on a poppy seed bun, Wagyu Corn Dogs, and crispy Tater Tots served classic, with nacho cheese and jalapeños, or topped with truffle and caviar. Pastry Chef Emily Hall (formerly of Crown Shy and Saga) brings playful desserts including hot fudge sundaes, strawberry shortcake sundaes, house-made cookie ice cream sandwiches, and Rocket Pops. Camp counselor-inspired uniforms, warm hospitality, and seasonal ingredients create a fun, nostalgic dining experience in the heart of New York City.

We have been big fans of 5 Acres for years and absolutely loved checking out their outdoor summer pop-up Camp 5 Acres! The food was outstanding, specially the Wagyu Corndogs and Lobster Crackers! Be sure to save room for dessert!! 5 Acres always had the best staff and best flavors in Midtown! It’s the most delicious non-touristy food in the middle of tourist central!

This is the worst organized fan experienced this World Cup. I understand there are a lot of people but the queens and the Brooklyn one could manage that. The people and volunteers there have no idea whats going on. they dont know how to let you in the visa lounge so they keep redirecting you so they dont have to be the ones dealing with you and they get annoyed if you ask them where to go instead. they were obstinate and we didnt even get in the lounge until 20 minutes through the match being started despite having a reservation and not getting iff the waitlist. It was fine once we were inside, but how can you be this poorly managed and be this clueless. I have a final reservation as well, but really close to cancelling it because this was really frustrating
