The US Open finals fall on a Sunday afternoon in early September, and the subway ride from Fort Greene or Williamsburg to the Billie Jean King National Tennis Center takes forty minutes if the 7 train cooperates. That's long enough that a second wave of New Yorkers skips the commute entirely, books a table at a Brooklyn beer hall with projector screens, and watches the finals from a rooftop deck or warehouse taproom within ten blocks of home. These five bars across Williamsburg, DUMBO, Gowanus, Fort Greene and one Midtown rooftop run dedicated US Open screenings and watch parties during the tournament's final weekend, turning the question of whether you hold tickets into a question of which neighborhood you want to spend the evening in instead.
The Karpo app shows which Brooklyn and Midtown venues still have rooftop seating or projector screens available for tonight's match, and which spots are running tennis cocktail specials through the final.
Berry Park runs a ticketed finals watch party with rooftop access in Williamsburg
Berry Park at 4 Berry Street in Williamsburg hosts a US Open Finals Watch Party in partnership with Yonex, with tickets listed at twenty dollars per person for the event. The venue opens daily during the tournament and shows matches on multiple projector screens throughout normal business hours, with weekday happy hour running until 7 p.m. The ticketed finals event includes rooftop access, and the industrial beer hall features high ceilings, exposed brick, long communal tables and a rooftop deck with metal railings and open-sky light over the neighborhood.
The event listing specifies that matches are shown throughout normal business hours during the entire tournament, not just during the finals watch party, which means you can drop in earlier in the day to settle in before the evening session. That makes Berry Park a reliable base for anyone planning to watch multiple rounds or testing the room before committing to the ticketed finals screening, and the rooftop deck stays open as long as the weather holds.
Threes Brewing Gowanus shows semifinals and finals at a converted warehouse taproom
Threes Brewing Gowanus at 333 Douglass Street is explicitly listed as screening the US Open semifinals and finals, making it a low-key craft beer base for fans staying in Brooklyn during the tournament. The taproom opens daily with regular bar hours into the evening, and brewery pricing runs pints and drafts typically in the mid-teens. The space is a converted warehouse with polished concrete floors, light wood benches and tables, white walls, and large windows opening to a garden-like backyard strung with lights and greenery.
The watch-party listing calls out Threes Brewing specifically for semifinals and finals coverage, so the late-stage rounds are most reliable there compared to early-round matches. That focus means the venue commits screen time and seating to the tournament's climax rather than splitting attention across other sports, and the backyard garden offers overflow seating when the taproom fills during prime-time matches.
Randolph Beer DUMBO features self-pour taps and skyline views during every match
Randolph Beer at 82 Prospect Street in DUMBO is featured in a Brooklyn tennis guide as a top spot to catch US Open matches, and this self-pour beer bar is ideal for fans who want to watch the finals with skyline views instead of commuting to Queens. The venue opens daily and is promoted as a US Open viewing spot during tournament days, with typical bar service running into late evening. The craft beer bar uses a self-pour system with per-ounce pricing on beer walls plus standard bar food in the mid-range, and the modern industrial space features concrete floors, exposed ductwork, neon accents, and a long wall of self-serve taps, with large windows framing the Manhattan Bridge and brick warehouse exteriors outside.
The tourism guide highlights Randolph Beer's DUMBO location specifically for US Open viewing, meaning the Prospect Street branch is the one to target rather than its other Brooklyn and Manhattan outposts. Walk-in seating is casual and reservations are optional for US Open screenings, so arriving thirty minutes before a marquee match gives you first choice of window tables and sightlines to the screens.
Fulton Hall offers Honey Deuce specials and all-tournament coverage in Fort Greene
Fulton Hall at 250 Ashland Place in Fort Greene is listed as a top Brooklyn spot to catch every US Open match, and this sports bar offers tennis-themed cocktails and multiple screens close to downtown and local transit. The venue opens daily and actively promotes showing all US Open action, with Honey Deuce cocktails around ten dollars and standard sports-bar food and drink pricing. The spacious corner bar has big front windows, dark wood bar and tables, multiple flat-screen TVs, and a brick-and-wood aesthetic that opens to a casual back patio with simple outdoor furniture.
Guides note that Fulton Hall offers Honey Deuce specials while showing all the action, so ordering that signature drink during the finals is part of the experience rather than a one-off promotion. The venue operates as a walk-in sports bar with no reservations required for US Open screenings, and seating is available at the bar, tables, and back patio, which means groups can split between indoor screens and outdoor sound when the weather cooperates.
Starchild Rooftop at Civilian Hotel pairs Midtown skyline views with evening drink specials
Starchild Rooftop at 305 West 48th Street in Midtown West hosts a Horizon Hour from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. Tuesday to Thursday with drink specials, aligning with early US Open start times on TV. The rooftop cocktail bar is highlighted as a Midtown spot where you can watch the US Open with evening discounts on house spirits and select drinks in that early evening window. The sleek rooftop lounge features glass railings, modern low-profile seating, moody colored lighting, and open views over Midtown's high-rise skyline, framed by metal structures and patterned tile floors.
The venue's Horizon Hour runs 5–7 p.m. on Tuesday–Thursday, which overlaps perfectly with early evening matches and makes that window the best time for value cocktails and tennis viewing. Rooftop bar practice encourages reservations for peak hours, so booking ahead for the finals weekend secures seating and sightlines, and the Karpo app tracks which time slots remain open as the tournament progresses.
How to choose
Pick Brooklyn venues like Berry Park, Randolph Beer, and Fulton Hall if you want larger groups, outdoor or rooftop space, and an easier hop to Queens via subway for those holding US Open tickets. These spots cluster in Williamsburg, DUMBO, Fort Greene and Gowanus, and all sit within two subway transfers of the 7 train if you decide mid-match to head to the stadium for the next round. Choose Midtown rooftop options like Starchild if you care more about skyline views and cocktail programs than crowd size, and plan your arrival around their 5–7 p.m. Horizon Hour when early matches start. Look for places explicitly listed as showing semifinals and finals, such as Threes Brewing and Fulton Hall, to ensure the late-stage matches are on every screen rather than competing with other sports.
One correction before you go
A common assumption is that only sports bars near Arthur Ashe Stadium are good bases for US Open finals viewing, but current city guides show that Brooklyn neighborhoods like Williamsburg, DUMBO, and Fort Greene, plus Midtown rooftops, host dedicated US Open screenings and watch parties that can be more comfortable and accessible for New Yorkers not traveling with US Open tickets in hand. The tournament's two-week window means these venues commit screen time and seating to tennis rather than cycling through other leagues, and the rooftop and backyard options offer more air and space than the indoor-only bars that cluster near the stadium gates in Queens.
