A Saloon by the Marina
Find us inside Brookfield Place, right where Vesey Street meets the water. From the front entrance to the back dining room, past the raw bar and out onto the marina café – this is one of our most expansive locations, with views to match.
Serving Battery Park City, the Financial District, and the ferry crowd, P.J. Clarke’s on the Hudson is equal parts saloon, raw bar, and waterfront escape. It’s our classic menu, with a front-row seat to the river.
Find Us on the Waterfront
We’re in Brookfield Place, across from Hudson Eats and just steps from the ferry. This is one of the most accessible waterfront restaurants in NYC – and one of the most iconic.

"Good food in a GREAT location.....went there to celebrate my daughter's 21st birthday 🎂
There was a miscommunication on my order and one of the managers came and personally apologized for the mistake. She then proceeded to remove the price of the meal OFF the bill 👍🏾🙌🏾💪🏾"

“One of the most memorable restaurants I've ever visited. The team here is incredibly warm, welcoming, knowledgeable, and present. Had fresh shrimp, oysters, clams: 10/10. How they run a place that big and with that many staff so well is beyond me. If you understand what it takes to do that you'll appreciate how special it is that they pull it off every day. Massive respect for this team of hospitality pros. Will visit every time I'm in NYC.”

“We ate here after a very long day of sightseeing and were starving. The atmosphere was so cool being right on the river. I recommend eating outside. The food was outstanding. We hope to go back before our trip is over.”
