Free Greenwich Village Food Tour

Greenwich Village is well-known for its shady, winding streets with 19th Century houses, for its bohemian roots and historic Washington Square Park.  But the Village's tree-lined streets are also lined with some of the best restaurants and food specialty shops in all of the Big Apple.  Just ask celebrity chefs of the Food Network, food critics from the New York Times and thousands of New Yorkers: Greenwich Village is THE place to find the best of every cuisine.    

Washington Square Arch

Join Free Tours by Foot as we locate the best of the best.  You'll crunch your sweet tooth with scrumptious desserts, indulge in prociutto arancini (rice balls) from a shop 100 years old, eat falafel so good that you will understand why New Yorkers wait in long lines every night at one of the first Middle Eastern establishments in the United States.  And in a city known for its pizza, you will try not one but two of the city's best rated pizzerias.     

Sites we cover on the tour:

  • Mamoums Falafel 
  • Artichoke pizza
  • Faiccos Rice Balls
  • Bleeker St Pizza
  • Milk and Cookies
  • and much more!

At the food stops, you will choose what treats you would like to sample (or eat in whole).  Try them all or none at all.  Unlike other tours that charge around $45 with some excluding food, on this tour, YOU choose what to eat and how much to spend.  All recommended items are less than $4.  Suggested amount to bring for snacks is $7-10, depending on your appetite!  Vegetarian and vegan options available at several shops.
