Meeting Point
You’d be hard-pressed to find better cupcakes in Manhattan. You can create your own cupcake concoctions (frosting, flavor, etc.) and the atmosphere is like a retro classroom. It’s too cool for school.

What to expect
Molly's Cupcakes
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.
5 minutes
Mamoun's Falafel
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.
15 minutes
Artichoke Basille's Pizza
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!
15 minutes
Pommes Frites
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! Also - beer on tap and wine selection are available for purchase and YES we will be there long enough to finish it.
30 minutes
Bleecker Street Pizza
We will try the world famous and food network favorite nonna Maria pizza. Also, beer and wine available for purchase
20 minutes
Washington Square Park
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.
15 minutes
Little Owl
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.
The Stonewall Inn
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.
Faicco’s Italian Specialties
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.
