- Washington Square Park - Spend some time learning about the fascinating history of one of America’s most significant city parks.
- Mamoun’s Falafel - Opened in 1971 by a Syrian named Mamoun, this was NYC’s first falafel spot. Now run by his sons, this iconic eatery continues to serve delicious falafel to comedians, musicians, and students all day and late into the night.
- Two Boots Pizza West Village - Offering more than just a typical New York slice, Two Boots is a lively and colorful eatery with excellent food and a welcoming atmosphere. Once a lesbian bar that excluded men, today Two Boots is inclusive and full of interesting happenings.
- Bleecker Street - Bleecker is lined with bars, boutiques, and beautiful people. It’s not unusual to spot a world-famous face here.
- Taco Mahal - This Latin/Indian fusion restaurant is owned by a woman with Puerto Rican and Indian heritage, and staffed by a predominantly Nepali team. It represents the best of New York: innovation, tradition, and dedication. The food is unique, vibrant, and delicious, accompanied by great music.
- Marie’s Crisis - Conclude the night at Marie’s Crisis Cafe, a charming underground bar where you can sing along to show tunes with a live piano player. It’s a delightful experience, even if Broadway isn’t your usual interest.

Village Nights offers a unique evening food crawl through Greenwich Village, perfect for those eager to explore, converse, and savor the flavors of one of the world’s most iconic neighborhoods.
The journey begins at Astor Place, with a typical stop at one of the city’s oldest bars, though the route is always dynamic. There is no set path; instead, a licensed, experienced guide tailors the experience based on the group’s vibe (up to 8 guests), offering a personalized blend of culinary delights, intriguing stories, and hidden gems.
Without any branded attire, the guide ensures the group resembles a diverse gathering of friends enjoying a night out, rather than a traditional tour group.
Participants will traverse a significant area and often dine while standing, so wearing comfortable shoes is recommended. Come with an appetite for both delicious food and the vibrant nighttime energy of the Village.
