American Wing Cafe

Positioned with views of Central Park on one side and the sheltered statue courtyard on the other, the cafe centers its appeal on its physical setting. The self-serve counter keeps food options direct with pre-made salads, sandwiches, cookies, and brownies, alongside soft drinks and a small selection of canned alcoholic beverages. Prices run high for simple museum fare, though the counter setup comes with no tip expected, bringing the final bill somewhat closer to standard dining outside.
