Our food tour kicks off at Bagel Bob's. Here, we'll try a traditional hand-rolled everything bagel, perfectly complemented by a generous serving of freshly whipped cream cheese.
We'll then visit the historic Washington Mews, one of the few remaining cobblestone streets in New York City, rich with fascinating history.
Explore the iconic Washington Square Park, and grab a picture of the Washington Square Monument and Fountain. We'll delve into the park's fascinating history, which began as a public graveyard before being developed into one of New York City's most popular destinations.
We'll walk down MacDougal Street and pop into Mamoun's Falafel where we'll try some of their mouthwatering handmade falafel. These hot, crispy, and flavor-packed Middle Eastern balls are guaranteed to be the best falafel you've ever had in your life.
We'll stroll past the iconic Comedy Cellar, a beloved New York comedy club that has been graced by the performances of legendary comedians like Chris Rock, Dave Chappelle, and Jerry Seinfeld.
For all Taylor Swift enthusiasts or 'Swifties', our tour will include a visit to 23 Cornelia Street, the site where the famous popstar used to live back in 2016.
