Union Square is home to four historical monuments: Mohandas Gandhi, the Marquis de Lafayette, Abraham Lincoln and George Washington. Can you find all of them?
Great cocktails, sexy crowd. Dinner by day, dancehall lounge by night. Feels like the West Indies, a good vibe for sure.
This is the quintessential NYC restaurant. Cozy, comforting, delicious. -Malika Ameen, Top Chef Just Desserts

A great array of vendors selling a wide variety of vintage goods as well as handcrafted items. Don’t overlook the food vendors there are some really tasty items to be had
friendly staff, great selection. You have to spend quality time in order to find what you want. Also, if you want to look for something in particular, they'll help you in a courteous way. Recommended.
This shop has a huuuge vintage poster selection, I could spend a fortune and my whole life searching for the right one here...
One of the rare remaining true used record stores in NYC. It's pretty much impossible to walk out of there having not bought something. Great selection, amazing prices and always in good condition.
Always great service, excellent wine selection and knowledge. All small plates and cheese/meat boards are great too.
A bar for literary enthusiasts. Very spacious space. A lavishly decorated time capsule of the Victorian era. Impressive drink menu.
Blink and you’ll miss the unmarked door. Inside you’ll find a serene respite from Times Square. Classic cocktails, excellent wine, and small plates. Make a reservation via phone.
Cronuts and cookie Shots are awesome here. Best go before 12 noon for cronuts. They run out of Cronuts very quickly!
Stop for a bite to eat, or to shop after walking the High Line. Plenty of boutique spots. Often you’ll find a sample sale in one of the spaces as well as an Artists & Fleas on the 10th Ave & 15th St.
Come at night to see this! We went during the day and it's pretty but not magical.
Bring cash and come ready to sing along to showtunes. A delightful time is to be had at the acclaimed basement piano bar.
Classic New York. Always feels magical here and full of history. Hospitality is on point.
Large portions, casual food. Grab some black & whites on the way out!
Cookies are crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. Really amazing. Loved the dark chocolate chip.
This store has everything you need and then some. Best selection of meats, cheeses, olives, breads & unique snacks. Have a bite next door don’t forget the coffee!
Just like the movie, you can sit at the exact table John Cusack & Kate Beckinsale's dined in. This is a fun spot with sweet desserts and memorabilia. The Serendipidous Hot Chocolate is amazing.
Cute place for chai. The seating in the back gets filled quickly, and since they don’t kick you out, it’s relaxed. The butter chai is delicious. Good place to hang with friends
This is about as old school Italian as they come. Only the pastas for the Ravioli and the Ziti are made in-house, so we recommend you go in that direction!
Poe spent the last years of his life here, from 1846 to 1849, where he wrote many of his most enduring poetical works, including “Annabel Lee,” “The Bells” and “Eureka.”
Designer collective of independent luxury and contemporary designers, run by the designers themselves

Now, the bar has been set way high for Cheesecakes. Go for the minis and try as much as you can. Classic and Salted Caramel
very busy place, huge portions, and damn good food and drink. bbq chicken biscuit sandwich the buffalo mac & cheese are the BEST. get a cocktail and a growler of beer with your food and die happy.
Well suited for grabbing drinks and a few bites with friends. Pretty standard bar grub (i.e. lots of fried food). The Rare Bird is great if you like Rum drinks.
I get now why everyone’s obsessed! Perfect on all levels. Croque monsieur, omelette and waffle sandwiches are the best brunch items you’ll have! Outdoor seating area is worth the wait. Cappuccinos♥️
Sake selection is great, dumplings are delicious and ambiance makes it a must visit
Yes, at this point this “speakeasy” is anything but secret, but that doesn’t make it any less of a gem. We could go for a ginger smash and some bone marrow poppers right about now, come to think of it Read more.
Love this place!! Located so randomly in Chinatown but they have killer cocktails and live jazz sessions on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays(with live burlesque), and Sundays. Go early or make rsvp-
Great atmosphere and vibes. Love the drinks and the prohibition style theme. A must see when visiting NYC
Cute speakeasy, with old-timey style cocktails. I like anything with elderflower in it, and the mixologist is really dope about concocting something unique that reflects your palate.
Community minded gay bar - for everyone. Great burgers on a beautiful block of the West Village. Classic.
Simply the best for vintage jewelry. Ask for Jodi, a charming gemologist from Texas.
Featuring the most talented aspiring performers as singing waiters, waitresses, servers and wait staff. Located in the heart of Times Square NYC Theater District and serving amazing milkshakes.
The West Village branch of this Italian café is the perfect mix of stylish people & laid-back-by-day, romantic-by-night vibes. Grab a seat for a cappuccino, avocado toast and a prime vantage point. Read more.
The Halal Bro's were good 10 years ago. Anyone who says otherwise is not from NYC. Come here for THE best Halal on 6th that's not a tourist trap
Never out of style and always a good go to when stumped for gifts. I wish I lived in a Derian snow globe.
Awesome hot chocolate and pastries. Chocolate croissant is a must; especially when they are fresh off the oven. Grab some coco mix to go.
Perfect little shop. Bonnie is a tremendous help in finding the right book
QB is authentic French. One of the best places to go for a fancy bite in the Theater District. Highly aesthetic design, excellent service, delicious food & cocktails. Great for pre/post theater dining
Much cheaper than REI and a lot of the same brands (north face, Columbia) plus others like Carhart and Canada Goose.
They are my go to for finding gently worn designer and vintage clothing at amazing values and prices. I could spend days here scouring through the racks. Their online shop is pretty awesome too.
Absolutely divine! I don’t know if there is a Michelin star just for desserts, but they would definitely deserve one. Eclair, Mille feuilles & cookies were fabulous! But you have to try “le miel”
French salon vibes fill in this charming neighborhood bistro. Stick to the shareable small plates. Scallops and cabbage were favorites. Energy level goes up as the lights dim later in the evening.
