Farm To Table, American

Cafe, Fine Dining, Bar / Lounge

Part of Highlife Productions

FESTIVÁL is a new concept in dining. We are a cocktail cafe not a restaurant. The cocktails and cuisine are at the vanguard of taste. There is no coursing. The food and drinks come out as they are ready. We are best known for our share plates however there are larger menu items available for those looking for a full meal. There are no substitutions or custom ordering. The menu is fixed. We are the perfect establishment for date night or a large birthday party!

FESTIVÁL - NYC's ONLY 'Farm-to-Bar' Cocktail Cafe

American Farm-to-Table Small Plates + Elevated Mixology

As an extension of the critically acclaimed SECRET SUMMER™️ “NYC’s First & Only Farm-to-Bar” Cocktail Festival celebrating locally sourced, sustainable drinks and bites, FESTIVÁL Cafés focus is a 100% local menu with selections that change on the seasons and celebrate local purveyors, farmers, fisheries, and orchards. The cafe serves coffee and patisseries during the day and at night, transition into a fully functioning cocktail bar with beautifully presented, seasonal bites and full plates!
