The Water Club is an American traditional cuisine event venue moored on a barge on the East River at East 30th Street in Kips Bay, in Manhattan, New York City. [3] [4] [5] The venue, whose view faces Queens, serves classic American cuisine and seafood. [6] [7]
The restaurant is owned by Michael (Buzzy) O'Keefe and the space is leased from the New York City Economic Development Corporation, and the rent is determined by the amount of revenue. The New York City Comptroller issued a report in 2011 alleging that the Water Club was understating its revenue by failing to record some cash sales. [8]
Like its sister restaurant in Fulton Ferry, The River Cafe, it was heavily damaged by Hurricane Sandy in October 2012. [9] [10]
The restaurant includes 396 feet (121 m) of docking space for private yachts along its waterfront promenade. [11]
