Early Bird was brought on to capture the essence of Allegory and Alto, The MC Hotel’s standout dining destinations. Alto, Montclair’s only rooftop bar, offers a one-of-a-kind experience—3,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor space with panoramic views of the NYC skyline. Meanwhile, Allegory, the hotel’s signature restaurant, brings a bold, community-driven dining approach with a shared-plate, multi-course format. Our photography was designed to highlight the atmosphere, cocktails, and cuisine in a way that feels immersive and social-media-ready, helping to position The MC Hotel as a must-visit culinary destination.
