Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Molly's Cupcakes, 228 Bleecker St, New York, NY 10014, USA

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.

Duration: 5 minutes

Stop At: Mamoun's Falafel, 119 MacDougal St, New York, NY 10012, USA

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.

Duration: 15 minutes

Stop At: Artichoke Basille's Pizza, 111 MacDougal St, New York, NY 10012, USA

This West Village institution is renowned for their namesake pizza and while they have other delicious pizzas, we go with their double-crusted, creamy work of art: the artichoke slice. And no you don’t have to like artichokes to love this slice!

Duration: 15 minutes

Stop At: Pommes Frites, 128 MacDougal St, New York, NY 10012, USA

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!

Duration: 30 minutes

Stop At: Bleecker Street Pizza, 69 7th Ave S, New York, NY 10014, USA

We make a minimum of seven food stops. The tour lasts about three hours.

Pass By: Little Owl, 90 Bedford St, New York, NY 10014, USA

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.

Stop At: 5 Ave, Waverly Pl., W. 4 St. and Macdougal St. Washington Square Park, New York City, NY 10011

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.

Duration: 15 minutes

Pass By: The Stonewall Inn, 53 Christopher St, New York City, NY 10014-3530

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.

Stop At: Faicco’s Italian Specialties, 260 Bleecker St, New York, NY 10014, USA

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.

Duration: 10 minutes

Absolutely excellent food and walking tour of Greenwich Village. Our tour guide Ian was spectacular. He knew so much about the area - both modern and historical references - and was really fun and entertaining. The food was awesome, and I feel like we definitely got a bang for our buck. Highly recommend!

I did this tour with my sister. Our tour guide, Ian was awesome. You can tell that he loves his job and the City. The food stops were excellent and the history of the area was amazing. Well worth the cost of the ticket.

Ian is excellent, knowledgeable, and fun. Food choices could have been a bit more diverse. 2 different pizza stops when could have had an alternate option. Rice ball and Charcuterie Italian food stop was barely a taste, not even a mouthful. Could have been more creative and not just a bite size. Have been on other food tours in NYC and elsewhere and this was ok.

Our guide Adam was so inspired. He was considerate , well informed, patient, Funny , and extremely good with people. I would strongly recommend this tour based off of our experience with him dealing with our diverse group with ease and confidence. The food also off the charts . What a fun and yummy way to learn about Greenwich Village. Let there be no Big misunderstandings we would definitely repeat this experience if Adam were our guide again.
