Veg Night Out! Drinks & Conversation @ Ascent Lounge in Time Warner Center
About the event
Welcome to our September Veg Night Out! We're headed to Ascent Lounge. Located on the 4th floor of the beautiful Time Warner Center, directly on Columbus Circle, this stunning new lounge, party-space and nightlife destination has rapidly become an NYC favorite. Elegantly decorated with luxurious furnishings, both classic and contemporary, this luxe lounge also has magnificent views of Columbus Circle and Central Park. It will be a relaxing and beautiful place for our veg*n meetup group to chill for the evening, and their management is looking forward to hosting us.
Zagat: "In a space decked out with black marble floors and oversized velvet chairs, this lounge on the fourth floor of the Time Warner Center offers an extensive whiskey selection, along with cocktails, wines and bubbly, with bottle service available. [There are also] views over Columbus Circle and Central Park."
From Ascent's web site: "Ascent Lounge, the latest elevated nightlife concept from City Nights Hospitality, is the newest member of The Restaurant and Bar Collection in The Shops at Columbus Circle. Presenting an incomparable cocktail lounge experience with stunning city views, Ascent Lounge is an ideal venue to experience elegance during early evening cocktails, late night soirées, elaborate private events and VIP premieres.

10 Columbus Circle, 4th Floor
More from Ascent's web site: "Designed by renowned firm, Jeffrey Beers International, the 5,500 square foot lounge maintains an air of elegance, which appeals to a wide audience, while still being a multi-faceted venue for a variety of events. Arriving guests will immediately be inspired by a portal of geometric design and lighting created by a statement screen and perfectly placed ceiling coffers and crystal chandeliers. A neutral palette with vibrant pops of rich color set an alluring mood for any occasion and mirrored panels throughout reflect the park & city scape, inviting them inside the lounge. Luxurious elements were added to the space, such as beautifully stitched banquettes and a custom mirrored back bar with floating shelves featuring a dazzling array of high-end spirits. A raised platform with wrap around banquets create elevated seating with an exclusive view of the lounge atmosphere and offers direct access to the bar."
With all the wonderful vegetarians and vegans who attend each of our events, every event we do is liked by our members, but our "Veg Night Out!" events are the most popular of all. People enjoy the fact they can mingle (speak with lots of different people), and they love the beautiful venues that we go to. Join us for a stellar evening of lively conversation and lovely surroundings with fellow vegetarians and vegans.
For our new members: this is an incredibly friendly and welcoming group. We'll be hanging out by the main bar area, and you can get to know all our wonderful members.
This event has no cover and no minimum. But please do buy a drink or two, or as many as you like. There is a full selection of non-alcoholic beverages available if you prefer not to drink alcohol. The venue requests that you dress appropriately: business, business casual or smart casual.
Where to meet: We will be by the Bar Area.
Train Directions: A, B, C, D and 1 to Columbus Circle, or the N, Q, R and W to 57th St / 7th Ave.
Join us for an elegant, fun and relaxed night of socializing with fellow vegetarians and vegans.
