Stop 1
Meeting point and ending point. We finish up at this award-winning cupcake place. It’s too-cool-for-school with desks, retro lunch boxes and even swings. Oh and cupcakes to die for.
2
Stop 2
The best falafel you’ll ever have in Manhattan or perhaps anywhere. It’s no surprise they’ve been around since 1971 - the longest Middle Eastern spot in all of New York.

Stop 3
Since opening in 2016 in the West Village, Taco Mahal has built a cult following for its bold fusion of Indian and Mexican flavors. Founded by Danikkah Josan, the concept blends her Indian roots and Latina heritage into something totally unique. This place is the real deal with tacos served on fresh naan or roti, packed with rich curries, vibrant spices, and flavor you won’t find anywhere else in NYC.

Stop 4
Pommes Frites has the best fries in the city or probably anywhere. Authentic Belgian fries that are double cooked and topped with extraordinary sauces - choose from over 30! Also - beer on tap and wine selection are available for purchase and YES we will be there long enough to finish it.

Stop 5
We will try the world famous and food network favorite nonna Maria pizza. Also, beer and wine available for purchase

Stop 6
Washington Square Park is legendary. You’ve seen it in a ton of films, it’s the unofficial campus of NYU students and you’ll see some of the coolest people in the city here. Feed pigeons. Hear musicians and watch street performers. You never know what to expect. Oh except for the mighty arch which is, of course, renowned.

Stop 7
No, there isn’t really a Central Perk and yes, they filmed Friends in Los Angeles ...but for you 'Friends' fans, you can check out the outside of their apartment. They shot the facade footage here. Clap clap clap clap.
8
Stop 8
The Stonewall Inn is such a huge historical site - literally and figuratively. We pass by the prideful institution as well as its new statue which was installed to commemorate it’s 50th anniversary.
9
Stop 9
Faicco's has so many items that will make your mouth water. We sample their arancini (rice ball) and sopressata (salami) and I promise you, these bite sized delights pack a culinary punch that last long after the tour.
Meeting & End Point

Meeting Point
You’d be hard-pressed to find better cupcakes in Manhattan. You can create your own cupcake concoctions (frosting, flavor, etc.) and the atmosphere is like a retro classroom. It’s too cool for school.
