Yes, the Whitney Museum of American Art has a restaurant called Untitled and a cafe called Studio Cafe. Both offer food and drinks.

The Whitney Museum of American Art showcases a variety of art forms, including painting, sculpture, video, and performance art.

The Whitney Museum of American Art has a changing programme of exhibitions covering modern and contemporary American art, alongside displays from its extensive permanent collection. Exhibitions can include major artist retrospectives, contemporary art, photography, film and the Whitney Biennial, the museum’s signature survey of contemporary American art.

As exhibitions change regularly, check the Whitney’s official exhibition schedule before your visit to see what’s currently on display.

The Whitney’s must-sees include its collection of modern and contemporary American art, with works by artists such as Edward Hopper, Georgia O’Keeffe, Andy Warhol and Jean-Michel Basquiat represented in the collection. What’s on display changes, so individual artworks may not always be on view. The museum’s Renzo Piano-designed building is also worth exploring, particularly its outdoor terraces, which offer views of the Manhattan skyline and Hudson River.

There’s no special dress code at the Whitney Museum, so comfortable, casual clothing is fine.

Comfortable shoes are recommended, as you’ll spend time walking through the galleries and may want to explore the museum’s outdoor terraces. If you’re visiting in colder or warmer weather, bringing an extra layer can be useful as temperatures can vary between the galleries and outdoor spaces.

The Whitney Museum’s collection includes works by many famous American artists, including Edward Hopper, Georgia O’Keeffe, Andy Warhol, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Alexander Calder and Faith Ringgold. The wider collection spans more than 27,000 works by over 4,100 American artists from the 20th and 21st centuries. Not every artist or artwork is on display at all times, as the museum regularly rotates its collection and exhibitions.
