Spencer Elliott Review of Pier A
Attractive location and cool renovation. Huge spa...
Attractive location and cool renovation. Huge space with beautiful views. Good place to have a drink in Financial District / Battery Park area, but the food has been consistently mediocre. We have not tried upstairs, which has a nicer and more expensive menu. Service is attentive but not especially friendly. Music has been too loud for us each time we've visited downstairs at night.
Prices are high for the type and quality of food and drinks you get, even by NYC standards. We each had a sandwich with fries and a Bloody Mary for lunch for $65. The food was OK, not great. Fries were tasty. Drinks were in half-size tumblers. Higher quality food and drinks are still available right around the corner on Stone Street.
The outdoor area is great for summertime with potential for beautiful views but gets crowded, and $8-10 beers do make an expensive afternoon.
