We love serving you, our neighbors and our New York City community. Your health and safety, along with the well being of our team, are of paramount importance to us. In compliance with New York’s official ordinance, issued on March 15th, the Champagne Bar, Rose Club and Todd English at The Plaza will be suspending services until further notice. We’ll be back as soon as we can, and look forward to welcoming each of you in the near future. And in the meantime, our chefs will be getting creative with In Room Dining, so that we can continue to serve our valued guests. Additionally, we will be offering take out at the Palm Court until Saturday, 3/21 during normal business hours. Stay safe.
For over 100 years, The Palm Court has been New York City’s iconic destination for Afternoon Tea. In 2013, The Palm Court was re-launched to include a grand bar, tea by Palais des Thés, and a new and revised menu featuring inspired American fare from morning through evening.
Renowned architect Thierry Despont has completely renovated The Palm Court while staying true to its original design intent. Inspired by nearby Central Park and its lush greenery, Despont incorporated potted plants, ceiling-high palm trees, trellis detailing, and custom furnishings with cane accents into his design. The room’s signature feature is a soaring stained-glass dome reminiscent of the original built in 1907. The Palm Court is a timelessly elegant setting for breakfast, afternoon tea, evening fare and crafted cocktails making it one of the most iconic New York restaurant and bars still taking reservations.
