About this tour

Greenwich Village has long been an epicenter for grass roots activism and social change, so it’s only right our food tour reflects this history by highlighting some of the best small businesses owned and operated by women, immigrants, and people of color.

We’ll begin our tour in Washington Square Park, where you’ll see the famous arch and fountain, and learn about the park’s history as a hub for protests, rallies, and performances.

From there, we’ll walk along the charming streets of Greenwich Village, past historic brownstones and iconic buildings. As we walk, we’ll see some of the neighborhood’s most famous landmarks, including the Stonewall Inn, the birthplace of the modern LGBTQ+ rights movement, and the former homes of literary giants like Edgar Allan Poe and Mark Twain.

Throughout the tour, we’ll delve into the fascinating history and culture of Greenwich Village, from its bohemian roots in the early 20th century to its role as a haven for activists and movements. And of course, try some delicious food along the way!
