Westlight sits twenty-two floors above Williamsburg with a wraparound terrace and the single best skyline view of any bar in Brooklyn, and this is the last sunset session of the series before the summer closes out. Sam Allan plays while Congregation runs the room from late afternoon until late. If you are picking one place to watch the summer end, pick the one with the view.
What to expect
A wraparound rooftop terrace on the twenty-second floor with the Manhattan skyline directly opposite, a full cocktail bar, and a DJ set that carries from golden hour into the night. There is a trendy and upscale dress code, so this is not a shorts-and-sneakers room. Expect it to fill sharply around sunset.
Good to know
- Bedford Avenue on the L or Nassau Avenue on the G are the nearest stops
- There is a trendy and upscale dress code, so dress accordingly
- It is 21 and over with ID checked on entry
- The terrace is exposed; wind on the twenty-second floor is stronger than at street level
- It fills sharply around golden hour, so arrive before the view crowd does
