Ever After in the Woods Features Blu On The Hudson

15 Coastal New York Beachfront Cafés With Extraordinary Views (And Even Better Food)

14. Blu On The Hudson

Sometimes the best views of Manhattan come from just across the river. Blu on the Hudson in Weehawken proves this point spectacularly, offering uninterrupted panoramas of the entire Manhattan skyline from its waterfront perch on the New Jersey side.

Floor-to-ceiling windows and multiple outdoor terraces frame the iconic skyline, while the Mediterranean-influenced menu delivers sophisticated flavors. Wood-fired flatbreads emerge with perfectly charred crusts, while fresh seafood dishes showcase the kitchen’s finesse.

The restaurant particularly shines at sunset, when the changing light transforms the skyline from daytime silhouette to nighttime light show. You’ll have Instagram-worthy photos against this spectacular backdrop.
