FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions About Semi-Private Venues NYC

What does "semi-private" mean for venue bookings?
Semi-private venues provide a dedicated area within a larger venue. You have your own section but share the overall space with other guests. This creates a livelier atmosphere while still having a designated area for your group.
How do I ensure my event remains private?
When booking, confirm the exact boundaries of your reserved space, ask about soundproofing between sections, and clarify whether venue staff will manage access to your area. For fully private events, request a clear contract stating exclusive venue access.
Are private venues more expensive?
Fully private venues typically have higher minimum spends because you are guaranteeing the venue exclusive revenue for that time slot. However, the per-person cost can be comparable to semi-private options for larger groups.

“It is a cozy place to go and have drinks. Also, it has a lot of pool tables and ping pong, which is a good addition for people to enjoy.”

Mikeat Sour Mouse

“Amazing Birthday Experience at Highwater Rooftop! Me and a friend hosted a joint birthday celebration at Highwater Rooftop, and it was a great experience from start to finish. Chris, the owner, was super accommodating and great to work with—he made the planning process easy and stress-free. The venue itself was great and the two floors were spacious and easily accommodated 100+ guests.The DJ was awesome too. Highly recommend Highwater Rooftop to host an event :)”

Hilary Forrestat Highwater Rooftop

“Best rooftop in NYC, I fly in from LA & MIA and this is by far my favorite bar to go to ever. Has great happy hours and delicious bites to eat. Not to mention the staff is so sweet and always recommend drinks that are unique to their space! The views are also to die for by the way :)))”
