Bar Torino is Now Open
Bar Torino—an Italian bar and café located on the mezzanine level of 50 Hudson Yards—is now open Monday to Friday, from 8am to 8pm, for drinks, spuntini, panini, pastries, coffee, and more.
Named for the capital city of Piedmont, Bar Torino is a welcoming place to spend the in-between times that punctuate daily life in a bustling urban center. Climb the Norman Foster-designed elliptical staircase in the lobby for an expertly-pulled espresso, sit down at a café table for a panino or some cicchetti, or pluck some packaged provisions from the retail counter to take onward.
The daytime menu is centered around jaunty, Italian-inspired ‘little somethings’ to tide you over until the next—like assorted pasticcini and paninetti alongside La Colombe coffee in the morning, or Roman pizzetti or cornettos in the afternoon.
The new aperitivi menu begins at 4pm and continues through the evening with signature piccolini plates and a beverage menu featuring variations of martinis, classic Italian cocktails, spirit-free drinks, Italian wines, beers, amari, and more.
Family Day at Hudson Yards - May 18th
Don't miss a showstopping lineup of family-friendly activities all day long featuring a Spring Family Movie screening on the 30-foot Big Screen, a special performance by Mozart for Mnchkins and a live interactive puppet show by Wonderspark Puppets!
Inside the The Shops & Restaurants, children can enjoy face painting and custom balloons designed by balloon artists in addition to many shopping and dining offers for the whole family.
