On April Fools' Day, ESB announced on their social platforms that a new Rainforest Cafe would open at the top of the famed building. After massive interest and quick reactions from fans online, we are pleased to announce a limited time pop-up with Rainforest Cafe on the iconic 86th Floor Observatory. This event will run from Oct. 3-6 only; don't miss the chance to experience this exclusive event!
Guests can purchase Rainforest Café’s most popular dishes as they take in the views from the iconic 86th Floor Observatory. This pop-up will serve favorites such as the Blue Mountain Chicken Caprese Sandwich, which features grilled lemon chicken, fresh arugula, and creamy mozzarella cheese topped with a balsamic reduction, as well as the crowd-pleasing Rasta Pasta, a vibrant dish with tender chicken, red peppers, spinach, parmesan cheese, and a zesty basil pesto vinaigrette.
