Remember that time in June when we covered the best waterfront hangouts in New York City? Well, we stand by those spots.
But since you hit them all up by now (you have, right?), we have a whole new host of waterfront joints for you to eat and drink in while what's left of summer.
This list of NYC spots is updated, hotter, and more gorgeous than ever.
So check them out, will ya?
1. Waterfront Ale House (540 2nd Avenue)
poweredby_coffee Drinking some awesome #javerbeer and #longtrailbeer 😃🍺 Another great one thanks to #goodbeerpassport #nyc #waterfrontalehouse
The Waterfront Ale House offers patrons delicious BBQ and craft beers. This down-to-earth bar scene is one Avenue from the East River, and the chillest possible location for hanging out waterside in NYC.
Their pulled pork sandwich, waffle pries, and quesadillas are some of their most excellent cuisine options in the city.

So after you chow down on some delicious food and wash it down with a cold beer, why not go stand by the lovely, temperamental East River?
2. The Bayhouse (155-57 Bayview Avenue - Queens)
flaneurandfoodwhore Colorful summer salads but my meal is the steakmelt next to it... #dinnerporn #saladporn #bayhouse #alfresco #queens #eeeeeats #nycfat #instafood #foodstagram #feedfeed #eater #howisummer
Want to pair a stunning waterfront view with mind blowing eats? Perfect. Get to The Bayhouse for your next dinner, and you won't regret it.
From their fresh shrimp shaker to their Santa Fe steak wrap, flounder sandwich, and refreshing margaritas, sitting atop Jamaica Bay and chowing down on an extremely affordable meal is an evening well spent.
Are you enchanted by airplanes? Even better. The Bayhouse is splendidly close to JFK. So you can sit on the bay and marvel at the overhead airplanes while you enjoy your food.
Sounds perfect to us.
3. Battery Gardens (1 Battery Place)
e_trimbo #pirateship #argh #summerparty #sunset the Statue of Liberty is behind this majestic view #batterygardens
The views at Battery Gardens simply cannot be topped. If you dine at Battery Gardens you'll stare into the New York Harbor at the Statue of Liberty, Governor's Island, and Ellis Island.
Their alcohol won't completely wreck your bank account. Delicious pints of beer from Victory Brewing Company cost only $5 at Battery Gardens, and pitchers are $16.
Their food is costly, though, coming at $75 for a prix fixe menu. The food is delicious and the view is dope, so if you can afford to swing this, you should. From tuna tartare, to pumpkin soup, miso glazed chilean sea bass and lamb osso bucco, Battery Gardens' delicacies are delicious.
It might be worth splurging on dinner here for a special occasion, just for the view.
4. Brooklyn Crab (24 Reed Street - Brooklyn)

Love seafood? Excellent.
Wondering how to get to Brooklyn Crab? Simple. Take the free Ikea ferry to Red Hook. You may have to wait for a table at Brooklyn Crab, but they'll text you when your table's ready. So you don't have to stand around twiddling your thumbs.

This is one seafood restaurant that gives you a bang for your buck. They've got a comprehensive beer list, mini golf, an amazing bar atmosphere, cornhole, and the best crab and lobster on the planet.
Brooklyn Crab is the perfect way to feel like you've been transported from NYC and plopped into a beach town. It's the best way to spend a weekend afternoon eating, drinking, and playing by the water in NYC..
,5. La Marina Cafe (348 Dyckman Street)

This is a magical place to enjoy lunch, dinner or brunch. Whether you're visiting for the sunset, the afternoon, or even nighttime, this has got to be the most stunning waterfront dining option in all of NYC.
Located in Washington Heights right beside the George Washington Bridge, La Marina's brunch munchers have the pleasure of watching plenty of kayakers cruise by on the Hudson River. Nighttime diners get to watch the moon shout up at them while they enjoy their meal.

La Marina's worth a visit without food. But since La Marina has amazing food in addition to its breathtaking views, it's sort of insane if you live in NYC and haven't visited.
In case you're wondering, La Marina is worth the trip uptown and hefty prices. It's the got the kind of exhilarating view that reminds you why you're happy to be alive.
6. River Café (1 Water Street - Brooklyn)
nellster_c Romance all around. Just perfect. Check it out fellas. #rivercafe #romantical #brooklyn #theviews #water #freedomtower #brooklynbridge #candlelightdinner
This gorgeous waterside restaurant offers amazing views of the Manhattan skyline and the New York Harbor. And the Statue of Liberty. It also has an outdoor terrace and an indoor water garden.
Love seafood? Get their lobster tails with blood orange. We promise you won't regret it. They also specialize in oysters and yellowfin tuna. You'll also probably get some sort of complimentary appetizer or dessert, because they're classy like that.
All-in-all, this amazing waterside restaurant is perfect for your next celebratory occasion or date. Especially a date. The River Café is extremely romantic.
7. Pier 66 Maritime (207 12th Avenue)
dexhombre Another great night in New York. First some beers at pier 66 on Hudson River, then some midnight oysters... #pier66maritime #newyork #nyc #usa #hudsonriver #oyster #virgola #besttownintheworld
This seasonal outdoor eatery on Pier 66 in Hudson River park includes several attractions like the Lightship Frying Pan, a historic rail float bridge, and of course the Pier 66 Maritime Bar & Grill.
The Maritime Bar & Grill prepares their delicious food on-site, and it's located on a floating barge, docked securely at Pier 66. So if you haven't yet dined on a boat this summer, now's your chance.
[anad2]
In addition to a full bar and grill, The Maritime also has a second story viewing deck, access to the Lightship Frying Pan, and a large covered area with wind protection.
Basically, it's the best of both worlds. And they've got amazing vegetable and goat cheese flatbread, and crab cake and avocado. Also, if you go here try their Beer Braised Bratwurst. Just do it.
