Restaurant(s), Bars & Stars
• The Palm Court – It serves breakfast, lunch and Afternoon Tea. An a la carte brunch menu is offered on Saturday and Sunday. In addition, The Palm Court offers an Eloise-themed children’s menu.
• The Champagne Bar (lobby bar) – Overlooking Fifth Avenue and the Pulitzer Fountain, The Champagne Bar at The Plaza, is reminiscent of the Champagne Porch that was in the same location when the hotel opened its doors in 1907. The most exclusive of The Plaza’s dining venues, which once welcomed legendary figures, such as the Prince of Wales and Diamond Jim Brady, has become a favourite destination of today’s social set. By night, celebrate with the world’s finest champagne, caviar and wines. By day, indulge in freshly baked pastries, light gourmet fare, and specialty coffees.
• The Rose Club – Embodying the grandeur of the Plaza with a splash of contemporary style and spirit, it overlooks the stunning new Fifth Avenue lobby. Located where the Persian Room, a once legendary nightclub, played host to such formidable acts as Bob Hope, Kay Thompson, Bob Fosse and Liza Minelli, The Rose Club walls have listened in on many unforgettable moments in music and entertainment history. The Plaza’s Rose Club menu features an array of signature cocktails and a select epicurean menu to indulge in lighter gourmet fare.
• The Plaza Food Hall – We opened The Plaza Food Hall by Todd English in June 2010, where locals, tourists, and hotel guests alike could meet, dine, and shop in a space akin to European food halls not typically found in the United States. Our enthusiasm for all things food quickly caught on, and The Plaza Food Hall has become a go-to destination, setting in motion a multiphase expansion.
• The Todd English Food Hall – a European-inspired specialty food hall – offers the finest fresh, prepared, and gourmet foods. The Todd English Food Hall mirrors the aesthetics of the finest food specialty markets throughout the world. Known for his interpretation of rustic Mediterranean cuisine, Chef Todd English expands his culinary borders to international flavours, creating a true dine-around experience among the nine diverse food stations (Ocean Grill & Oyster Bar, Noodle & Dumpling Bar, Pasta Bar, Sushi Bar, The Grill, Taqueria, Pizza, Cheese & Charcuterie, Wine Bar and Patisserie).
