Restaurant in Manhattan, New York
Rumpelmayer's was a café and ice cream parlor[1] in the Hotel St. Moritz and part of a chain started by Anton Rumpelmayer. It was popular for children's birthday parties, Sunday breakfasts, and afternoon teas.[2] The Art Deco restaurant was designed by Winold Reiss and overlooked Central Park. [3]
The pink walls had Egyptian-style mosaics and the room was decorated with stuffed animals.[4] They served hot fudge sundaes and hot cocoa, which was served in silver pots and considered " benchmark hot cocoa."[5]
Rumplemayer's opened when the St. Moritz opened in 1930[2] and closed when the hotel closed in April 1998.
