Dinner before the Barrymore

Also listed as just the Barrymore. It's one block south of our street, so the walk is close to a straight line. From our rooftop at 605 W 48th St, it's about 13–14 min on foot, or a short cab. Tacos, margaritas and a live DJ first, then the show.

Before the curtain

At the door

Most theaters open their doors 30 to 45 minutes before curtain, and some ask you to arrive earlier to clear security. We plan for you to be there 30 minutes before curtain, or earlier if the theater asks.

Late seating is up to the theater, so leave yourself room. Tell your server you have a show when you sit down.

The Barrymore: dinner questions

How far is the Barrymore from Cantina Rooftop?

About 13–14 min on foot from our door at 605 W 48th St, or a short cab. Ethel Barrymore Theatre is at 243 W 47th St.

When should I book dinner before a 7pm show at the Barrymore?

Book the 5:00 pm table and leave by 6:16 pm. That has you at the door 30 minutes before curtain or earlier, if the theater asks. Book a table.

What about a matinee?

On a Saturday with a 2pm show, sit down for brunch at 12:00 pm and leave by 1:16 pm. We don't serve lunch on weekdays, so for a Wednesday matinee, come up for dinner afterward: we open at 5pm.

Can we eat after the show instead?

Yes. The last reservation is 10pm Tuesday to Saturday and 9pm on Sunday. We're closed on Mondays. Book a late table.

How long will dinner take?

Tables are held for 90 minutes. If you have a show, tell your server when you sit down and order early.
