My partner and I were visiting New York and were recommended to do a food tour with Alex from Manhattan Walking Tours – it was by far one of the best experiences we had throughout our entire holiday. Alex is not only a great guy and took us to some delicious food stops, he also has a rich bank of knowledge when it comes to the history of New York City. Read Full Testimonial

Guided walking tour of the Greenwich Village neighborhood
5 unique and delicious NYC food stops

The exact food stops on this tour may change due to holidays, closures, or other factors, but your guide will always make sure you have a fantastic foodie experience.
Welcome to The Village!
The tour begins in one of New York's oldest parks which is often called the gateway to Greenwich Village. People have escaped to the greenery of Jackson Square for 200 years and it still buzzes with local life today. After a quick introduction with the rest of your small group and your friendly foodie guide, you'll begin your culinary exploration of one of the city's most influential, unique, and exciting neighborhoods.
You'll stroll through the streets, alleyways, and past the iconic brownstones that line the main avenues. Learn about the history of The Village from distant colonial times to the beat poetry and avant-garde artistry that helped the area become New York's bohemian epicenter.
New York Classics
Hopefully you didn't have a big breakfast, because you'll need some room for the indulgent snacks and street food coming your way! With influences from all over the world, the range of flavors available around here is endless. Early on, you'll get a little taste of England as you try some deliciously authentic pasties, then it's time for a true New York classic...
Is it a cheese slice or a plain slice? In the metropolitan area, it's an important discussion. Whatever you call it, today you'll try one of the city's best pizza slices. This is where NYU students and partygoers of all ages line up for a midnight treat, and after one bite you'll realize why this Greenwich Village institution keeps people coming back again and again.
In the early 20th century, Italian immigrants did much to develop the cuisine of New York. Next, take a peek back through time at a 100-year-old butcher shop and deli. With high quality meats, freshly made cheeses, and top local ingredients, it's no wonder this place makes one of the best sandwiches you're ever likely to taste. Along with this sandwich perfection, you'll also try a classic Italian street food perfect for a city on the go.
Lip-Smacking Desserts to Wrap Up the Day
Once you've had your savory fix at Greenwich's delis and pizza joints, you'll head to two very different bakeries to finish off the tour on a sweet note. First, you'll stop by at an historic Italian bakery for amazing cannoli that's been a local favorite for decades. Then, it's time for a little French sophistication at a beloved patisserie famous for it's innovative twists on the classics. It's the perfect way to end the tour before you set off to explore the city some more (although you might need to rest and digest a little first!).
Before you say goodbye to your new friends, be sure to get some extra recommendations from your guide on where to eat and what to do with the rest of your time in New York—you'll struggle to find anyone who knows this city better!

What makes our walking food tours so nice?
Best food. best people. best city..
Nice Guy Food Tours was founded by Dante Mercadante, who sets out to disprove the myth that New Yorkers are “not nice” with each and every tour. While touring with our NYC walking food tours, you learn about New York’s rich history while munching on city eats throughout the city streets, stopping to talk about landmarks and eating at the best establishments along the way. Nice Guy Tours is an experience like no other.
“When you take one of my food tours, I make three guarantees: you will leave full, learn something, and have fun.” – Dante Mercadante, CEO
Greenwich Village Food Tour Highlights
In Greenwich Village, we’ll take a stroll through iconic spots like the legendary Washington Square Park and its famous arch while feasting on a variety of different food that’s authentic New York City – from a “real” slice of pizza to the tastiest falafel at the oldest Middle Eastern restaurant in the city. You’ll experience the best fries you’ll ever taste in your life at Pommes Frites and discover a whole new appreciation for artichokes at Artichoke Pizza. They’ll be walking, talking, cupcakes, and so much more!
Lower East Side Food Tour Highlights
On this Food Tour, you’ll learn all about this ever-changing yet historical section of Lower Manhattan. You’ll eat at some of the oldest and most famous eateries in all of the city, savoring pastrami from the infamous Katz’s Deli and diving into the best authentic NYC bagel of your life at Kossar’s. Enjoy pickles, sweets, and everything in-between. If you’re not full by the time the tour’s over, we’ll take you around again. We’ve yet to see that happen!

We're rated five stars with over 2,000 reviews on TripAdvisor!
Adam’s tour was great, nice and relaxed. It felt like a chilled stroll rather than a formal group event. My tip - arrive hungry, really hungry! We learnt a lot and even saw Chris Rock…twice. Although he’s not a guaranteed part of the tour!
I set up this tour for a corporate team building event. The tour was the perfect balance of site seeing, sampling food, and socializing. It wasn't too rushed, and certainly wasn't boring. Dante has great interpersonal skills and was able to remember all 23 of our names by the end of the tour. I would definitely recommend this tour!
Great tour! Adam, our guide, was very friendly and helpful. All the food tastings were fantastic! It was a relaxed and fun experience. Highly recommend these guys.
Dante was a great and fun host, and the "nice guy" tour is appropriately named. Over three hours, he took us to seven food stops in Greenwich Village and discussed the history, culture, and architecture of the village along the way. Among the food stops, there were two VERY different styles of pizza, one of which I had never heard of (and I eat a lot of pizza). It was a really fun time!
Such a friendly guy, Ian introduced himself to each of the 12 in our group, and he constantly checked in with us to be sure we were enjoying ourselves. The West Village is a fascinating web of small streets and interesting businesses, particularly the restaurants on the tour.
Today my husband and I did the Greenwich tour with Dante. We were recommended by a friend, and couldn’t have been happier! Not only did we eat great food, but we learned about the area and history as well. You can truly tell how much Dante loves his hometown, but I was more pleased to see the great relationship he seemed to have with the restaurants we went to. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a taste of the city.
We enjoyed this tour! All the samples were so delicious and we were so full at the end! Dante is so friendly and knowledgeable and we felt like family immediately. We cannot wait to purchase the Greenwich Village tour next! Make your reservation immediately, as this is a great way to learn about the Lower East Side and all of its iconic places!
This was our second tour with Dante, and it was like seeing the city with an old friend. Very relaxing and fun afternoon! Loved the variety of foods - a great way to sample many different foods, and Katz deli pastrami sandwich was delicious. Loved the doughnuts from Doughnut Plant and pastries from Russell and Daughters as well. Dante is a great tour guide and this tour is an excellent way to get an overview of the foods of NYC.

City Experiences Announces the Greenwich Village NYC Food Tour – Its First U.S. Food Tour
City Experiences Announces Its First U.S. Food Tour, Offered Exclusively by Devour Tours, as it Expands Its Land-Based Experience Offerings in New York City
The Greenwich Village NYC Food Tour Takes Guests On An Exclusive Culinary Journey Through One Of Manhattan’s Most Iconic Neighborhoods To Experience The Cuisine That Shaped Its Beginnings
New York, NY (May 12, 2022) – City Experiences announced today its first U.S. food tour offered exclusively by the award-winning international tour provider Devour Tours , further extending the company’s land-based portfolio of offerings in New York City. The Greenwich Village NYC Food Tour takes guests on a culinary journey through Manhattan’s famed West Village, featuring some of the most beloved family-run eateries that have shaped the culture of this storied neighborhood. Tickets are on sale now at devourtours.com .
The Greenwich Village NYC Food Tour joins City Experiences current portfolio of offerings in New York City including Statue City Cruises, ferry service to the iconic Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island, City Cruises New York, dining and sightseeing cruising from Chelsea, amongst others.
“ Devour Tours has always been committed to bringing people together with a one-of-a-kind experience that is rooted in sharing the local culture through its cuisine,” said Lauren Aloise, Co-Founder of Devour Tours . “The culinary experience is part of the fabric of New York and we are thrilled to bring our expanding collection of offerings to the U.S. with the Greenwich Village NYC Food Tour . We’ve always felt that there is no better way to connect with a city then through its cuisine and New York is the perfect place for us to curate these new opportunities for our guests.”
The 3-hour Greenwich Village NYC Food Tour includes nine food tastings at seven locally run bistros and restaurants in the west side of Lower Manhattan from Washington Square Park to Bleeker Street. Discover the area’s rich immigrant heritage and meet the families who have kept their delicious traditions going strong for generations, all while tasting some of the best and most authentic Italian food New York City has to offer.
The tour begins in Washington Square Park, one of New York City’s most recognizable landmarks. Guests will learn the story of this neighborhood’s rich Italian heritage, starting with the first taste of the tour: fried arancini from a favorite family-run shop. From there, head to a handmade pasta shop that’s been run by the same family for over a century and sample their delicious cheese ravioli made by the same traditional manual pasta-cutting machine that has been in use since 1906.
Next, enjoy a family-run café famous for importing high-quality Italian coffee before trying one of the Village’s most iconic pizza joints. After that, head to the shop that supplied the arancini you sampled earlier, learn about the family who has run the place for five generations, and pick up some of their signature Italian cured meats and cheeses to enjoy along the way.
Afterward, try a meatball from a hot spot that opened in the 1990s – fairly new by Greenwich Village standards – and top it off with an olive oil tasting led by your expert guide.
And finally, since just one Italian dessert is never enough, try two! Enjoy freshly made pastries and Italy’s best-known sweet treat: gelato.

The 10 Best Food Tours in NYC
L et’s get one thing out of the way first — food tours are not just for out-of-towners. A great way to experience what your city has to offer gastronomically, tours led by experienced operators can help get you learn more about the history and culture of your city or dig into a specific cuisine or neighborhood you’ve been meaning to explore. In a city like New York, the gastronomic offerings are obviously off the charts. We’re talking nearly 25,000 restaurants, which is an overwhelming number for anyone to even begin to tackle.
Besides helping you find your new favorite restaurants, these NYC food tours can also open your eyes to dishes that might not be on your radar — from shrimp-filled rice rolls in Chinatown to Tibetan momo in Jackson Heights. The best will provide these insights and more, so we’ve detailed 10 can’t miss options. All that’s left for you to do is book your spot and get ready to feast, sip and have fun.
Devour: Greenwich Village
Explore the charming streets of Greenwich Village with Devour, which leads an in-depth tour of the iconic neighborhood. They lead you around town to learn about family-run businesses and to experience a whopping nine different tastings including a fourth generation pasta shop, Brazilian bakery and a historic cafe frequented over the years by artists. The tour concludes at the bar that introduced the neighborhood to the craft beer movement 20 years ago, so you and your fellow explorers can chill out and enjoy a tipple.
Mott Street Girls (MSG): Flavors of Old Chinatown
A different kind of Chinatown food tour, the Mott Street Girls was founded “to make Chinese American history and culture more accessible to the public.” Led by second generation Chinese Americans, their Old Chinatown tour seeks to highlight the traditional flavors created by immigrants who opened decades-old mom-and-pop shops in the neighborhood. Learn about the history and culture of the community while eating your way around, from a century-old dim sum parlor to tucked-away dumpling shops .
Viator: Brooklyn Food, History and Culture
Brooklyn is New York’s most populous borough (and one of its most vast and diverse as well), so it can be overwhelming for anyone looking to squeeze the most out of its food scene. This tour by Viator brings you through the charming and historic neighborhoods of Brooklyn Heights, Cobble Hill and Carroll Gardens — so not your typical trendy Williamsburg offerings. The tour wanders through popular streets lined with eateries, as well as some picturesque streets known for their brownstones. You’ll stop at bakeries, a cheese shop, an old school soda fountain and more along the way.
Guide to the Best Street Foods in the World
Joe distefano: savor southeast asian elmhurst.
Author and tour guide Joe DiStefano is a Queens culinary aficionado who’s made it his life goal to share his love for the borough and all it has to offer. He offers several NYC food tours there, one of which leads hungry explorers through the underrated neighborhood of Elmhurst — home to a thriving Southeast Asian community where Thai and Indonesian cuisine abound. During the tour, DiStefano leads you through unique markets and hole in the wall restaurants, where you can sample dishes such as bubur ayam (a hearty chicken rice porridge), guo bao (pork belly buns), yen su ji (salted crispy fried chicken) and more.
Scott’s: Walking Pizza Tours
A beloved staple of the city’s food scene, New York pizza is also a contentious topic amongst residents. Everyone has their own idea of what constitutes the perfect slice, and the dollar slice is no longer a thing (more like five dollar slice). Scott’s is a tour operator devoted only to pizza walks, making them a bonafide authority on bringing you to the best spots so you can decide for yourself what the ideal NYC slice tastes like. They offer several different pizza walking tours, each of which bring you to three different slice shops in a given neighborhood, all the while providing you with interesting pizza history lessons.
Like a Local: Chelsea Market + High Line + Hudson Yards Food & History
A tour that spans multiple Manhattan neighborhoods (get ready to walk), this offering by Like a Local brings you through the iconic Chelsea Market, providing history and telling “secrets” along the way as you explore its diverse food offerings. Indulge your palate with tastings from an array of gourmet vendors, including artisanal cheeses , freshly baked pastries and global culinary delights. You’ll take in the Hudson while strolling and tasting your way through Market 57 at Pier 57 and experience the architecture and views of the High Line and the Vessel.
Ultimate Food Tours: Famous Jewish Food of New York City
The influence of Jewish food culture can be seen everywhere around the city, from bagel shops to delicatessens to pastrami shops and sandwich counters. This unique tour led by Ultimate Food Tours investigates the history of Jewish immigration to the city in the early 20th century and some of the dishes that have become intrinsic to NYC’s food scene. The best smoked salmon, hand rolled bagels and pastrami sandwiches will all be tasted on this tour, which leads curious foodies around the Upper East Side of Manhattan.
TimeOut: Speakeasy Drinks & Prohibition
Once the sun goes down, it’s time for a tour of a different kind: one that explores the fascinating history of Prohibition and how it changed drinking culture forever. Speakeasies and “hidden” bars have been a New York City mainstay ever since, now prized for their cheeky hush-hush nature and unique concepts. This tipsy tour by TimeOut includes three hours of exploring some of the city’s best speakeasies, allows you to skip the line and will give you insights into the history of the Gilded Age and Prohibition-era in America with a cocktail in-hand.
Foods of NY Tours: Nolita’s Delicious Past & Present
Nolita, or North of Little Italy, is an uber charming neighborhood known for independent boutiques, delicious restaurants and attractions like Elizabeth Street Garden. This tour by Foods of NY obviously takes you to taste pizza galore (and sip wine while you watch it cook in a wood-fired brick oven) but also brings you to other neighborhood spots to taste Brooklyn blackout cake and authentic Mexican street food.
Viator: Asia in Queens: Exploring NYC’s Largest Chinatown
Embark on an enriching journey through the vibrant streets of Flushing, Queens, a neighborhood renowned for its historic Chinatown. This tour combines tasting with sightseeing, unveiling the history of Flushing with information on its transformation into the largest Chinatown in New York City. Gastronomic offerings range from traditional dim sum to a Korean interpretation of French pastries. Also on the tour, visit landmarks such as the Free Synagogue of Flushing and the Flushing Quaker Meeting House. With a small group size of seven participants, this guided food and culture tour ensures a personalized and engaging experience.

The two hours of Andrew's Greenwich Village Historic Walking Tour covered the Village's history from precolonial days to present times. Beginning at the heart of the Village, Washington Square, winding down some of its most charming streets, Andrew filled us in on the Village's important place in American and World History, pointing out where famous and infamous historical figures lived and work, and important events took place. Andrew's informative narration makes for a lively, fun fact filled two hours. Highly visitors to the City, as well as lifelong to New Yorkers like myself who are curious about our beautiful Greenwich Village.
