2168 Frederick Douglass Blvd (at W 117th St), New York, NY
Italian Restaurant · Central Harlem · 134 tips and reviews
New York Habitat: This restaurant has a great vibe, all meals are wonderful and they have a great happy hour that lasts until 7:30. Fill up then take a stroll through nearby Morningside Park.
Supermarket · Manhattanville · 83 tips and reviews
New York Habitat: Here you will find a huge selection of good cheese, olive oil, and deli meats. In the cold room? Don't forget one of their provided jackets!
New York Habitat: If you are a cupcakaholic you should definitely go to Tonnie's! The best part is that you get to choose your own cake, cream and topping.
310 Malcolm X Blvd (btwn W 125th & W 126th St), New York, NY
Southern Food Restaurant · 552 tips and reviews
New York Habitat: One of Harlem's best soul food spots, Red Rooster features a gospel group that performs on the weekends. The Yard Bird is a must have, but don't forget to make a reservation.
684 Saint Nicholas Ave (btwn W 141st & W 145th St), New York, NY
Seafood Restaurant · Central Harlem · 52 tips and reviews
New York Habitat: Hungry? Here you'll find huge portions of some of the city's best fish and chips. Squeeze a little lemon on top and you're good to go!
Southern Food Restaurant · Central Harlem · 21 tips and reviews
New York Habitat: The side dishes here are to die for. The corn bread and collard greens compliment the jerk chicken perfectly, and we especially love the live music.
Mt. Morris Park W & Madison Ave (btwn W 120th & W 124th St), New York, NY
Park · Central Harlem · 52 tips and reviews
New York Habitat: Nice, small park that is perfect for jogging or walking your dog. It is no Central Park but with the green markets on Saturday it is a great place to spend an afternoon.
New York Habitat: Every Wednesday the Apollo hosts an Amateur Night, where you can cheer on performers or boo them off the stage! Be sure to get there early for tickets, as this night sells out quickly!
