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.
Our Greenwich Village food tour wouldn't be complete without stopping at Bleecker Street Pizza. They were voted as the #1 pizza in NYC for three years in a row and they offer a taste of the city's renowned pizza culture, allowing you to savor some of the most iconic slices in one of the most popular pizza spots in the Big Apple.
This ain't no Chipolte or Tacobell! Our next stop is at the one and only Little Taco House. This tiny hole in the wall offers big flavors and serves up a taste of Mexico with authentic made-to-order tacos.
Our tour wouldn't be complete without a quick visit to Carrie Bradshaw's Apartment made famous in the TV series Sex & the City.
Our next stop is outside the very popular 'Friends Apartment'. This unique stop offers fans the chance to take a picture of the iconic apartment from the beloved TV show. So grab your lobster and take a happy snap!

Rebecca was amazing. She made the experience fun and informational. Her vibe and great energy made the adventure fun, tasty and rememberable.
Rebecca was a great tour host and the food was excellent over the 6 stops
This food tour was a fantastic way to experience a part of Manhattan’s sights and tastes! Rebecca Kopec was a fantastic tour guide.
Rebecca, our tour guide, truly brought New York to life! I’d highly recommend the Greenwich Village Food Tour. She was incredibly knowledgeable, passionate, and engaging. Thank you, Rebecca, for such a fantastic experience!
We weren't sure how to fill our half day before traveling home. This tour knocked it out of the park. Rebecca was AMAZING!!!!! So knowledgeable, fun, and a great personal photographer! Such a great variety of foods to try, and not too much to fill you and make it uncomfortable but just enough to give you a great true taste of everything. We were so happy with the tour. Again- Rebecca was a 10/10 guide.
Meri was a great tour guide, offering a unique view of New York history and food. And ask her anything NY related, and she’s happy to offer a take. Definitely recommend.

Hey Ameya, this is really nice to hear. Rebecca has a knack for keeping the stories coming, so it's great that the food and the information kept things interesting from start to finish on the Greenwich Village food tour. We'd love to have you back out with us again sometime.
Rebecca is a fantastic, knowledgeable, affable, fun tour guide. The variety and flavor of the foods was terrific.
Kevin, glad Rebecca and the food both made such a strong impression. The variety is half the fun, and she's great at pairing it with stories about the neighborhood on the Greenwich Village food tour. Come join us on another tour next time you're in NYC.
Thoroughly enjoyed the tour. Alex was an amazing guide so knowledgeable and friendly. Loved the food particularly the Pizza at Bleecker St. Pizza and the cupcakes at Molly’s cupcakes. Highly recommend taking the tour!
Rhonda, the Bleecker St. pizza and the Molly's cupcakes stops are two of the best on the route, so we're glad they were highlights for you. Alex is wonderful at keeping things friendly and informative the whole way through. We'd love to welcome you back on another Greenwich Village food tour soon.
This was an amazing way to experience a variety of authentic foods in NYC and also get history. It was very filling!
Thanks for the kind words. Meri loves working the history of the neighborhood into the Greenwich Village food tour, so we're glad that came through along with all the food. Sounds like you left full, which is exactly the idea. Hope you'll join us again sometime.
