Queens Waterfront Bar With Plane Watching Deck at Bayhouse

Take your drinks plan out to Bayhouse, a relaxed Queens tavern where the outdoor deck puts you right beside the water. Watch planes fly by while you settle into the waterfront setting, with the aircraft giving you something to follow between sips. Give the outing a little breathing room, and let an ordinary round of drinks stretch into an afternoon away from your usual routine.

The menu moves between seafood and American classics, with baked clams among the dishes to try. An espresso martini covers the cocktail side of the order. There is an indoor bar as well, offering another place to have a drink when you feel like taking the next round inside.

Find the tavern on Bayview Avenue, where it is open daily from noon to 10 PM. That window leaves room for either an afternoon stop or an evening outing.
