Robin was amazing and such a great hostess.
Wonderful tour. Robin was amazing and such a great hostess. She was fun, informative and kept the tour lively and amazing! She engaged with each of us, some had special diet requirements and Robin made sure she accommodated! Can’t wait to take another tour with this company.
Learned so much and the food was excellent!
Joe was our tour guide. He was outstanding. We had arrived early and another tour company assumed we were with them. They were yelling at us to come join them. So grateful we were with this company and Joe was our leader. Learned so much and the food was excellent! Highly recommended!
Fantastic 3 hours spent on a Sunday afternoon around Greenwich Village.
Fantastic 3 hours spent on a Sunday afternoon around Greenwich Village. My wife and I ate really good meals and with a small group, Marie, our tour guide, was able to really spend time talking and answering questions about the area and the food. She was amazing! Highly recommend!
Great places, the tastings were EXCELLENT!
I’m an out-of-towner who’s been to NYC twice in the past 6 months. A friend initially recommended the Chelsea Market tour & I was NOT disappointed! All in all, what made it so special was our awesome tour guide, Joe. He made it so much fun & his knowledge of the history of the area was amazing!
I could not recommend more!!
I bought tickets to the Chinatown tour for my mom and sister. Our tour guide was Farshad and he was absolutely wonderful– so knowledgeable, kind, and fun! He made the tour great! The food on this tour was absolutely delicious– everything we ate was wonderful and we definitely left feeling full.
I could not recommend more!!
This food tour was the highlight of our New York Trip! Our guide Bert was absolutely incredible! So friendly, fun, and knowledgeable. We loved learning the history of the neighborhood and trying the amazing food! The taco was fantastic! Even on a rainy day we had a blast!

We had an absolutely lovely time! I’m recommending this to everyone I know, both New Yorkers and visitors. Marie our guide was passionate both about the neighborhood and the food we were eating. I’ve been in New York for several years, and still learned a lot from the tour and got several new favorite restaurants 🙂
Bert the tour guide is a NYC gem. The tour provided a great mix of insight, history and tasty food. I recommend the tour to people from outside NYC or anyone fortunate to live in the five boroughs. Ask for Bert he brings the experience to life with wit, humor and focus.
This is our 3rd Foods of NY Tour…and by far one of our favorites. Food was amazing, highlights and history of the city incredible and our guide Bert was fabulous!! Loved every minute and can’t wait to come back to the city!
Did The Heart & Soul Food tour yesterday. Farshad was great, the food was even greater.Nice mix of history and delicious foods from local establishments.
Excellent small-group tour of Chinatown eateries, combining easy-going site-seeing strolls through the neighborhood with stops at restaurants and take-out establishments. Took my upper elementary aged son who agrees it was a fun and enlightening experience. Will definitely sign up for another tour with them when we are back in NYC.
I bought my partner the Pizza, Beer and History Tour as a gift. We loved the experience and learned a lot from the history, despite being locals. Ross, our guide, was a highlight and made the experience fun and personable. I recommend this for anyone looking to explore New York in a new way
My friends bought me a voucher for a tour as a birthday present - booking was super easy and there was plenty of dates to choose from! I ended going on the NoLita tour & Jackie (our guide) was brilliant and made the experience one of my favourite things I’ve done in NYC!! The food was all great and I definitely think was worth the money. I’d recommend doing the tour to anyone & will likely book a different one soon!
Excellent food tour of Chinatown! Highly recommend, the food was amazing! Our tour guide Bert was very knowledgeable and was very attentive to everyone on the tour!! Will definitely do another tour with Bert and Foods Of NY!! Thank you Bert for a fun experience!!
Ryan, our knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and very experienced tour guide was a gem! This tour was our favorite and one curated for the young and old. If you’d like to enjoy the finer tastes of “The Village,” are eager to learn about its history and culture and contrast it to today, then…this one is for you! We loved every single minute and thank this well-established tour company, and most especially Ryan, for this memorable day.
We had a fantastic time. Hands down a must do while visiting NYC
We did the Nolita food tour with Bert — he was so knowledgeable about the neighborhood and had such great stories. Also the food was all excellent!! Would highly recommend.
Just wrapped up our third food tour with this company - and honestly, they never disappoint! Have been consistently impressed with their guides' knowledge and passion. Each stop brings genuinely delicious, well-curated food choices that give you a real taste of the local scene
Great tour! Our guide was great and she had lots of interesting information. Good variety of food from local establishments. We left full.
Farshad was very engaging, entertaining, and informative on the heart and soul of Greenwich tour! And the food was of course delicious.
Farshad was awesome! Delicious food, great portions, enjoyable evening for a corporate event.
Fantastic group food tour through Chinatown with our guide Farshad - fun and interesting delivery and delicious array of foods!
Joe was the perfect host and knowledgable guide. Had so many known facts about Chelsea Market. Highly recommend.
This was the fourth time I did the Original Greenwich Village tour (last time was six years ago). I loved it every time. All of the food tastings were great. Marie is an awesome tour guide and shared so much history of the area.
So much fun celebrating my Mom's 75th birthday with family on the NOLITA tour.
Bert was great. Super knowledgeable, friendly, and fun. The Chinatown food tour was super fun and interesting. Would recommend!
This tour was the best food tour I’ve done. There was so much food and our guide Bert was excellent. He remembered everyone’s names and had so much knowledge of the area we walked around. I would definitely recommend this tour.
Did the Original Greenwich Village tour for the third time on Saturday, October 12th. We do this tour because it has all of our favorite foods and we love hearing the history and stories of the area. There were a couple of new additions/deletions to the food tour from our previous times, but I can't say that it made any difference as the new foods were just as good if not better than what they replaced! Each tour guide is amazing, but I have to say that having Bert this last time made our tour so much more entertaining and memorable!! Thank you Foods of NY Tours! We will be back 🙂
We, my husband and I, selected the Chinatown tour and our guide was Bert. He’s lovely, smart, kind, and shared a lot of insights plus suggestions for the group. A fun jaunt that goes in & out and all around Chinatown filled with rich, tasty food but plenty of time to stroll and enjoy this historical enclave in bustling downtown Manhattan. Highly recommend for tourists and locals alike. Great value!
Robin was an amazing guide through Nolita/Little Italy! Her narrative was interesting and fun and the food choices amazing. This is our second tour with this company, and they’ve both been outstanding. Highly recommend!!
Robin was absolutely terrific!! My wife & I enjoyed every aspect of the tour; food, scenery, historic info, fun facts, etc. Plan on doing more tours and will highly recommend....
My husband and I were given the Food Tour as a gift and we decided on the Chelsea Market tour and I am so glad we did. First of all, Joe was the best. He is funny and informative. The market has so much history. It really is an iconic symbol of New York. The food stops we made were delicious and Joe took us to places that I would have walked right past if I had been on my own. I am not an adventurous eater but I tried things today I never would have if I wasn't on the tour. Toward the end of the tour we had a great walk on the High Line. I highly recommend this tour and I cannot wait to try another.
Great afternoon spent with Rick - a lovely mix of food and history, and a great group on tour - thank you!
What a fantastic tour! We had Cindy as our guide, and should you be so lucky, you will too. This is a food tour not to be missed, if you like food and you like the history of the area. From the buttermilk biscuits with amazing jam, to the crostata (everyone loved it to , the hotdogs, cheese, tacos, pizza, chocolate, and ice cream, this was an amazing tour. Everyone on the tour had a wonderful time, and one person even had all of us pose for a group photo. Cindy knows the area, food, and history. Go on this tour!
My family and I had a wonderful time on our tour greatly due to Julia. Her fun demeanor, her wealth of knowledge, her kindness, her wonderfully orated storytelling added all the pizzazz that as a whole created an exciting and most enjoyable cultural experience. I am positive that no one else can top Julia’s presentation and the overall experience she provides. We recommend anyone doing this tour to ask for her by name.
This was highly recommended to us, so we booked it. We thoroughly enjoyed it! Ryan, our guide, was a literal Wikipedia of information not only about Greenwich Village, but any questions we asked him about New York! The food was Delicious, with a large variety for us to sample. I especially liked the house of teas and spices, and the Cuba Restaurant. My husband especially liked the coffee place and thePizza. Highly recommend!
When I tell you Ryan is absolutely amazing, believe it! He was funny, knowledgeable, and highly entertaining! The historical facts that he sprinkled in, coupled with his personal anecdotes made the entire experience a great one. The food was great, service was stellar, and I'd recommend this tour unabashedly! Excellent experience!
The food tour was fantastic!! Our guide tour Ryan was personable, energized and extremely knowledgable about the Greenwich Village area and shops! I highly recommend this food tour!!!
The Greenwich Village food tour was absolutely amazing! It is so worth it. Chip was an excellent tour guide. He shared very interesting tidbits of information and was very friendly. He also had a good sense of humor. He made this very enjoyable. And the food was all very good. You will get full I promise!!
Excellent tour! This is the best food tour in NYC- always informative, personable, and amazing food and guides! If you come to NYC this is a must do!
Jackie was wonderful!! We did the Chelsea Market tour- delicious food, perfect amount, fun experience.
Joe, was our tour guide. He was excellent! Knew a lot of history. Also very knowledgeable on the food. You could tell he patronized the eating establishments because he truly enjoyed the food...therefore enjoyed conducting the tour.
We had a terrific time with a very small group for the foodie tour of Central Greenwich Village area. The Cuban and Italian food or some of the best ever.Very complete tour with an excellent guide, knowledgeable, and a lot of fun.Highly recommended
Our tour was fantastic - the food was incredible and our guide was super knowledgable and friendly! (shoutout to Robin)
The Greenwich Village food tour was absolutely amazing! It is so worth it. Chip was an excellent tour guide. He shared very interesting tidbits of information and was very friendly. He also had a good sense of humor. He made this very enjoyable. And the food was all very good. You will get full I promise!!
We did the Heart and Soul of Greenwich Village tour. This was a very satisfying tour. Bookended with small meals and with small bites and drinks in between. Ryan was engaging and friendly. Very knowledgeable about the area and the buildings and shops history. Would highly recommend this tour.
Absolutely amazing tour. Must do for sure. Cindy our tour guide was kind, knowledgeable, funny, and made this so much more than a simple food tour. 11/10 experience!
we hosted an offsite event with NY food tours and cars had made sure our group had an amazing time. we had the best tour guide and the tour was filled with excellent food and history lessons. the entire group had a great experience. i was particularly impressed with the care our guide took to make sure our guest with dietary restrictions was accommodated as well. Thank you new york food tours & Farshad!
Cindy, a tour guide, was just great! Fun, informative, and well-loved by the Chelsea Market vendors. Highly recommend her and the tour.
Farshad was awesome!! Lots of history and info. The tour comes with a lot of food, come hungry!!
Great tour! Food was delicious and plentiful. Tour guide was interesting and knowledgeable. We learned a lot and went home full
Our food tour in Nolita was wonderful. The food was fabulous but Robin our tour guide was the best part of the tour. She was filled with wonderful history and anecdotal info that made the experience even better.
We did the Nolita tour with Robin.It was fantastic. She provided so much history and trivia on Little Italy; thoroughly enjoyable.The food left us full.Would recommend to anyone.
We took the GV Food tour with Robin and had an awesome experience with her. She was fun, knowledgeable and enthusiastic and shared so much information and history with us during a tour jam packed with delicious food and interesting trivia. We all loved the tour and would happily take another one. Excellent company. Highly recommend!
Bert was amazing and extremely knowledgeable about the history of the places we visited. The food was absolutely delicious and I can barely walk afterwards 😂. I went with a group of people for my bachelorette celebration and it was absolutely phenomenal ! Highly recommend !
What fabulous way to experience the food, culture and history of New York! We were beyond impressed with our guide Marie. Her personal experience in the Greenwich Village neighborhood combined with her passion for sharing the community she cares about made for an exceptional food experience.
Chinatown: So much more than great food (plenty of that!): history, places to shop, cultural points of interest. Our guide, Chip, was fantastic. Great energy and so knowledgeable. Well-paced. We live in NJ and are in NYC often, yet this was a day full of discovery. It’s also a great gift!
great tour of Nolita with Jackie today! She was a wonderful guide and food was great!
Marie did an excellent job & the food was amazing. I highly recommend this food tour.
It's very beautiful restaurant in the USA.And as good as the food is - Bert is the best part!! So knowledgeable and an incredible story teller. Not a second of time is wasted as Bert recounts a ton of fun history tidbits as you travel from location to location. He's also an incredible resource for recommendations or to bounce your NYC plans off of. Greenwich village is a goldmine of incredible food and history and Bert really makes it shine!
Jackie was AMAZING!!!! This was our second time on the NOLITA tour, as we took visitors both times and we were fortunate to have Jackie both times!! Her enthusiasm and history facts are just fascinating and fun! We highly, highly recommend this tour if you are visiting the city. A great mix and of fun, food, history and walking the streets of NYC!! Food is wonderful and fills you up!!! Great variety of foods and restaurants that you WILL want to return to!!
Great tour w lots of information and a ton of awesome food. Joe was very informative and entertaining. Must do!!!
We really enjoyed the Chinatown food tour in Aug 31 with Farshad. What a wonderful blend of food and history. Farshad was knowledgeable and funny. Of course the food was wonderful! The list of resources are welcome for when I return to New York. This is the food tour I have done with this company and I would absolutely do more!
Loved the tour!! Cindy kept us entertained and in splits throughout!! Great group, super delicious food and tons of interesting factoids!! Cindy’s passion for the neighborhood shines through ❤️
I mean this was the best experience!!! I can't remember my guides name, please forgive me, I'm terrible with names. But he had a WEALTH of knowledge. This was my first solo trip and this tour does not disappoint. The food was delicious. I cannot wait to come back and check out their other tours. Thank you for an amazing time!!
Not only was this a great food tour with some DELICIOUS food, but also a pretty cool history and architecture tour of notable spots in the neighborhood. Chip was a fantastic tour guide!
I went on the Chelsea & Highline Tour with Joe today and he was the best your guide. He knew so much history of the area and everything was plotted out perfectly. A perfect start to a long weekend in NYC.
We enjoyed the tour. Our favorite dish was empanadas at Cuba restaurant and the margarita pizzas at Artichoke Pizza. Ryan was knowledgeable, enthusiastic and can hold his breath for 3 mins. We had a fun time. Thanks
We had Bert as a tour-guide today and he was awesome. Super friendly, knowledgeable about the Greenwich Village neighborhood, and we really enjoyed the tour. Food was amazing. I will recommend to any friends headed to NYC! -Stephanie
Friendly and knowledgeable tour guide. Thank you Bert! Not to mention delicious food. A must do when you come to NYC.
Bert for president!!! Incredible experience on the Old Greenwich tour. Great variety of foods that everyone will like with a manageable amount of walking. And as good as the food is - Bert is the best part!! So knowledgeable and an incredible story teller. Not a second of time is wasted as Bert recounts a ton of fun history tidbits as you travel from location to location. He's also an incredible resource for recommendations or to bounce your NYC plans off of. Greenwich village is a goldmine of incredible food and history and Bert really makes it shine!
Had an excellent time on the Greenwich food tour with Bert today! Knowledgeable and friendly and really made it a great experience.Highly recommend!!!
10/10 would recommend ! We were toured by Rick, an amazing man, so enthusiastic, entertaining and kind. The food was delicious and loved getting the ins and outs of Greenwich Village. Thank you Rick!
We had such a great time on this tour. Joe was a great guide, very knowledgeable, friendly, caring and engaging. He really made this tour unique. The tastings were delicious and showcased a variety of different foods. Highly recommend!
What a fabulous tour!! Robin was very entertaining with the history and stories about various places in Little Italy. Thank you!!
Joe was our tour guide for Chelsea Market and Highlign Park. The food tastings were varied and delicious. Joe made the tour fun and his knowledge of the neighborhood is wonderful. My favorite tasting item was the Taco. Great two hours!!
Best guide ever! Entertaining, personable, sooo knowledgeable! Great tastings. Can’t say enough good things about this whole experience. Highly recommend 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
My wife and I chose the Chelsea Market and Highline food tour over the other tours mostly because of the advertised hot dog, and the tour did not disappoint. Not only was it the best hotdog I've ever eaten (hopefully they ship to DC), but our tour guide Cindy was out of this world. She was extremely knowledgeable and passionate, and had come to develop close relationships with all of the vendors. She was truly a part of the community and loved what she was doing. The rest of the food did not disappoint either. We ate extremely well, and none of the shops skimped on the portion size.Cindy also does the Greenwich Village food tour, which I would totally do as well if she was the guide.
We had a great time: James was our guide, and not only was he very friendly but also extremely knowledgeable and humorous. We’re live in New York City and enjoyed having someone help us find some of Chinatown’s go to spots.
Fantastic tour of Chelsea Market! Joe was unbelievable. He did an amazing job telling us the history of the market and area. He made sure everyone was comfortable and having a great time throughout the tour. Five stars easily!
It is my husband’s first time in New York And we had a great time at the tour. Food was delicious and our tour guide Joe was great. True Italian fella!
Hi, we took the Chelsea Market High Line tour on Sunday 8/11 at 10 am. Our guide's name was Joe. It was a lovely, informative time, with lots of hidden facts and delicious treats. Joe's love of food and the area was very apparent. We would highly recommend Joe and this tour to anyone who has an interest in a good time, history and great food.This is our second Foods of New York Tour. First one was the Nolita tour with Robin in November of 2022. Also a great time. Looking into booking our next. I can't say enough what a great time and bargain this company and their guides give you! It's true, you don't know what you don't know till a well rounded guide tells you! Thanks so much, Donna and Billy from Bellmore... keep smoking those meats
Very detailed, friendly and informative! All the food was delicious and it was the perfect length. 3 hours felt fast and the walking was shorter than expected.Bert was the best!!
Joe the tour guide was absolutely amazing!!! So knowledgeable and fun!!! The food was awesome! Learned and enjoyed every minute!!!
I absolutely love NY food tours as a way to further get to know various neighbourhoods and this tour was fantastic. Our guide was knowledgeable and sweet, and the food was divine.
We had the best time on our first food tour! Bert was an amazing host and shared so many interesting tid bits about the neighborhood and places we visited. So many yummy bites sampled along the way. We will definitely be coming back for more!
We really enjoyed the Heart of Greenwich village tour. Chip was friendly and informative and the food was great!! 4th tour with them. Will be back.
What a great way to see a corner of Greenwich Village and sample a lot of fantastic cuisine! I would highly recommend this tour to anyone!
Joe did a terrific job guiding us around Chelsea market and finding us very unique food items. It was a very enjoyable experience
Bert was kind, well informed, shared nice bits of the towns history, not solely focused on the food
This is a great tour and this is our second time doing it. This time was with family and it was embarrassing and tacky that Joe asked for a tip to specifically us as we were talking to friends. I had the tip in my hand ready to give so I handed it to him but it was weird that he asked for it from our group. Isn’t tipping a choice? Again, I was planning to tip and had it in my hand when he asked so I just handed the t to him. Maybe that is New York boldness. We have done other tours with NY Food Tours and they have been great. I would recommend them generally.
We went on a tour with Chip today. He was funny, polite, and informative. The food was all delicious. I especially loved the empanadas and the iced tea!
Bert unlocked the Nolita food scene for us. We enjoyed some great food, peppered with facts and history that really made the tour a highlight of our visit.
Not only was Farshad a knowledgeable and humorous tour guide, but he accommodated preference for vegetarian dishes by two in my group, changed options as some had been to a mochi donut shop and obtained the last stop dessert for one who had to depart before the tour ended. Excellent tour!
They are always wonderful. We took the Greenwich Village tour. Great food! Great history lesson. Great guides! We will be back!
Went on the “Original Greenwich Village” Tour today and it was great! The food is delicious and our guide Marie was lovely and had a lot of fascinating stories to tell about the neighborhood! Didn’t even realize three hours had passed!
Really excellent guide and amazing food! Absolutely recommend this tour and this company. We have done several of their tours and they were all awesome
Just finished the Nolita food walking tour with Bert and it was excellent. Food was delicious and Bert was the best guide. Thanks for the great tour!
Joe was amazing! Loved all the food that we tasted and his knowledge of NY and the area were great! He told us about a potential dinner tour and we would definitely come back to NY for that!!
We went on a food tour of Chelsea Market and it was absolutely amazing! Joe was so wonderful and obviously loves what he does! Would definitely recommend this tour to anyone wanting to check out Chelsea Market and get a history lesson at the same time!
This food tour was amazing! The food and spots were picked out perfectly! Bert, our tour guide was the best and knowledge about the history of the area. Would highly recommend this or any Food of NY Tours. Done them all!!!
Host was friendly and knowledgeable. He spoke clearly. The food was awesome.
It’s the second time I’ve done this tour and it does not disappoint. What a great way to get a diverse taste of the many gems of Greenwich Village. Great guides!
My three daughters and I just finished the tour with Cindy and had a great time! We all highly recommend this tour!!
We just had a wonderful time on the tour called Nolita and The Little Italy Connection. Our tour guide, Bert, was so wonderful and fun and full of lots of fun stories. The food tastings were wonderful and we loved the variety of food. It was such a great experience.
Jackie was amazing! Wonderful food, great views, and iconic history. Would recommend 🙂
Bert was incredible and the tour was great. Food was on point. And the length and number of spots was perfect.
A wonderful afternoon spent eating and chatting with the nicest people. It was our lucky day when we got Bert as our guide. He was so knowledgeable, a great storyteller and a pro at building a little community in a short amount of time! Highly recommend this tour. Food was out of this world. So worth the cost, Do it! Oh, and ask for Bert!
We had an awesome time. Great food, great people and the best tour guide! Jackie was awesome!
The food was absolutely delicious. The neighborhood history was so interesting. We were lucky enough to be with a great group of people. But what made the whole tour one of the best I’ve been on was our wickedly funny tour guide. If you are lucky enough to get Cindy as your guide you are blessed. I am sure all their guides are great but Cindy is one of the tour guide extraordinaires.
Eight of us in the city for a tasty tour of Chinatown and a bit of education on the area’s rich history. Farshad served up amazing food and so much fun! Every tasting was delicious, including dim sum, Peking duck, and the egg tart finale; we were well fed! I’ve been on almost all of the tours and have never been disappointed; this tour was no exception. Thank you Farshad and Foods of NY! ❤️
This was the first time that my children and I experienced a food tour. It was WONDERFUL!!! We enjoyed everything and our tour guide, Bert was THE BEST!!! We will definitely return.
Bert was our tour guide, he was excellent, very welcoming and engaging. He was really informative and has a clear passion for food and the local culture and history of NYC. Would highly recommend!
A definite must do! Ask for Cindy - Great tour guide with a wealth of knowledge, engaging humor and positive energy!
Bert did a great job of including everyone on the tour. The food was delicious too.
What an absolute pleasure it was to have Bert As our guide! Knowledgeable, funny And definitely a part of the community that he was representing. Bert And his team managed to accommodate all of the food, allergies and specifications for the members of our tour. I highly recommend this tour!!
We had a marvelous time with Chip and Farshad today. Kind, patient and knowledgeable! And the food was delicious. Thank you so much!
Fun neighborhood overview and chance to try food from different places in Chelsea Market
Bert was the best! Great history, culinary details and wonderful hospitality! Every meal was different and delicious. We learned so much about Chinatown and enjoyed every bite! Worth every penny and then some. Thank you, Bert!
Amazing Tour! Great tour guide! The restaurants selected are authentic mom and pop shops. Really good food.
Great experience! Wish we did this sooner on our trip. Great primer for the NYC area. Aftwards they open it for questions and recommendations. Got to know Bert and hear all about the NYC experience. Will be doing this again next time.
My son Chris and I did the Chinatown tour with Farshad and it was great. Farshad was very knowledgeable and made it such fun. This was my 4th tour with Food Tours of NYC and they have all been wonderful.
Highly recommend this tour!! The food portions are great for your money and they’re all delicious!! Jackie was our guide and she was FABULOUS!!! She was knowledgeable and even convinced us to finish our girls weekend with a broadway show.
I definitely recommend this food tour. I am a big foodie and this tour checked off all my boxes for a food tour. Our guide, Jackie was hysterical, sweet and I loved how she gave so much history for places. I did the Nolita and the Little Italy tour.I can't wait to try the other tours!!P.S. Come hungry the portions they give on this tour were a good size. I was in a food coma afterwards!
Had a wonderful experience taking the Chelsea Market and Highline Food tour with the Foods of New York Tour company. Our tour guide Joe seems to have an encyclopedia of knowledge about Chelsea Market and the surrounding area which he shared willingly. Thank you Joe for making our visit to New York memorable.
Greenwich Village tour was wonderful in every way - delicious tastings, so much historic and cultural information, leisurely pace and Robin was a great guide! Worth every penny!
Joe was very knowledgeable, engaging, and enthusiastic. We loved the tour!
Do this tour!! Rick was a fantastic host, guiding us around Greenwich Village entertaining us with history and stories while we tasted the most incredible food. Myself, my husband and our 18 year old daughter all loved it and were so glad we were able to book in while we were visiting NYC for the first time. You won't regret this tour!
I can't recommend this enough. We took the Chinatown food tour and the food was phenomenal. This is my second time doing this tour. I took it in Nov. with my daughter and liked it so much that I took my husband and son when we came back to New York. Everyone agreed the food is so good. Bert, our guide, is hilarious and knowledgeable.
Rick was excellent and knowledgeable. Food was delicious, history of Greenwich Village was interesting. Rick went above and beyond to ensure our comfort. Highly recommend Foods of NY Tours.
Great tour!! Joe was awesome, sooo much fabulous food and lots of history we would’ve never known. Worth every penny!!!!
This was my first food tour and it exceeded my expectations!!! Rick, my tour guide was so informative about the food and the history of Greenwich. The food was amazing. I truly would do this tour again!
Awesome Soul of Greenwich Village tour today with Ryan! Perfect mix of great food and neighborhood history. I’ve been to the Village on several trips and got a whole new view today. Even got to eat at Monte’s while Chef Masconi watched soccer with his family. ❤️ Will definitely be trying another tour on our next trip. Thanks for a great day.
Our Greenwich Village food tour with Cindy was fantastic!!!! She was so very informative, funny and overall awesome. Highly recommend
Burt was wonderful and we really enjoyed the stops on the Greenwich Village tour. This is rhe second time ive toured with Burt and he does not disappoint!
The food was amazing, the guide was spectacular, and the whole experience was wonderful. Would highly recommend to anyone interested in learning more about the Greenwich Village neighborhood and New York City.
The Greenwich Village tour with Robin was fantastic !!! Hope to do another on a future trip to NYC.
We had a wonderful tour of Chinatown and Farshad was fun, informed, full of life and simply a joy. This was our second tour with Foods of NY Tours and it was just as exceptional as the first. We will for certain book more in the future.
The Chelsea Market Food Tour was amazing! Joe was our guide and he was awesome! He knew so much history about the area and had instant rapport with our group. The food was delicious as well! I've already recommended Foods of NY Tours to multiple friends. I can't say enough good things about our experience!
Joe was an entertaining, informative guide as we learned the history of the Chelsea neighborhood while sampling the fabulous food choices of Chelsea Market. Even more, the tour includes a walk along part of the High Line, a great urban oasis.
I went on this tour with a group and we had a great time! We did the heart and soul of Greenwich Village and the tour was fun and tasty! I was worried about there being too much food, as I am a smaller person, but my whole group was full by the end but not too uncomfortable! Perfect amount of food offered. Also we thought the price was definitely worth the amount of food we recieved as well as the great logistics planning they had!
Incredible, edible and delightful. An in depth tour, that fills your heart, head and stomach!
Had the best time on the original Greenwich village tour. Cindy was knowledgeable, witty, and hysterical! Each food stop was better than the next. I would highly recommend it!
A wonderful time with Joe, our guide. Some great tastes were enjoyed by all, with everyone selecting the 3 best (out of 8) as the tacos, pizza, and Gelato!
My wife and I went to NYC for our 25th wedding anniversary. We wanted a day we could slow down and enjoy the city suburbs and take in some local flavors. Rick was an excellent tour guide for the Greenwich Village tour. His knowledge of the city and the history that comes with it was nice to hear. The 9 people group we had was a perfect size for getting around the areas as we went from one place to the next.The food was excellent and the best part was enjoying the local scene and all it's ambiance. We had beautiful weather so being outside and walking around the neighborhood was just what we needed. Our hotel was in Times Square so the hustle and bustle of the city was the opposite of what this tour was.We live in New Orleans so we know good food and I cannot tell you how many times friends from out of town will ask us where the locals go for good food and experiences...well, take this tour because it is where the locals go! 🙂
Just wanted to give a shout out to Ryan, he was awesome!!! Very knowledgeable, fun, and just a all around great person. Special thanks for recognizing my friends Birthday 🎂 . Would recommend this tour in a heartbeat.
The tour was informative and fun! Our tour guide Farshad was knowledgeable and relaxed. He not only knew the history of Chinatown well but was well acquainted with the restaurant and store owners. The places chosen for the tour were all excellent. The experience was beyond my expectations. Thank you Farshad and Foods of NY Tours!!
Jackie is the greatest tour guide! She was incredibly knowledgeable, kind and upbeat. Jackie helped to make the Greenwich Village tour FANTASTIC!
We had a fabulous tour of Chelsea Market and beautiful walk on the high line. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable!
Easiest 5 star review ever. Marie was a fabulous guide as we dined and toured through Greenwich Village. The food was fantastic and varied from a fish taco to rollatina, we enjoyed every stop. Was also great to learn about the history and people who have lived there such as famous historical figures and celebrities. The last thing I’ll add is that they put a lot of thought into the visitor experience, explaining very clearly when we’d be sitting inside, where water/bathrooms were available, and had alternate food options for guests when needed. Highly recommended for all!
Amazing experience all around. I wanted to do a surprise for my fiancés birthday. Mason helped me plan everything, answered all my questions and was so so helpful. Robin was an awesome tour guide. She really knows her stuff and is just a pleasure to hang out with. The tour itself was another 11/10. The food was fantastic, big portions (we were all full be the last stop). Really a great tour! I would recommend this for anyone who wants to taste a lot of great NYC food. What a perfect day. Thanks foods of NY tours!!! We will be back.
Recently went on The Heart and Soul of Greenwich Village tour. Overall, fairly enjoyed the tour. There was a lot of food tastings and we were stuffed at the end. Our tour guide was fantastic and provided a great cultural teaching of Greenwich village. Would recommend.
LOVED our tour! Our guide Bert was amazing! The food, the pace and the overall experience really helped us relate and understand NYC. HIGHLY recommend and look froward to going on our next tour
The Foods of NY Tour, Greenwich Village was amazing. As a Travel Agent and New Yorker I will highly be recommending this tour. Rick was phenomenal. He was professional, tailored to your needs and was very knowledgeable. All we can say is come hungry! My husband and I enjoyed that we had sweet and savory tastings. Rick did a great job at combining walking and seating throughout the tour. We will definitely be checking out other Foods of NY Tours.
Had a fantastic tour with Rick of Foods of NY Tours. Tried so many good foods with a variety of different flavors. Learned so much history and some modern culture highlights. Our tour guide was fantastic! Careful to attend to needs of an older adult guest by speaking more loudly and taking extra care to ask her needs. Rick’s love for this area, these food establishments and the people who live and work on NYC was wonderful to see and experience.
We loved this tour! Our tour guide Joe was fantastic, enthusiastic, fun to be with, and very knowledgeable about the area and history. The food samplings were excellent and far better than I would have thought. The experience was simply delightful. We highly recommend this to anyone. It was a five star experience.
Our family was in NYC for a holiday weekend and took the Original Greenwich Village tour with Bert. Bert and the tour were unanimously the highlight of the weekend!! All of us, ages 15-53 a blast! The food was excellent, and Bert was so friendly, funny, and knowledgeable, a really fabulous afternoon. It was a great way to see Greenwich for the first time as well, such a beautiful neighborhood filled with great food. This was our second tour with Foods of NYC and won’t be our last. Highly recommended as a way to see a part of the city and eat great food with fun guides!
A delicious tour of China Town with a super informative guide. Perfect activity for a rainy day in New York city. 10/10 would recommend!
Chip was very knowledgeable and informative. He made the tour a lot of fun. The food was all very good. It was especially nice to get to walk through the neighborhoods, hear fun facts, and see where the people live. Highly recommend this tour and especially Chip as the tour guide!
Wonderful tour. Robin was amazing and such a great hostess. She was fun, informative and kept the tour lively and amazing! She engaged with each of us, some had special diet requirements and Robin made sure she accommodated! Can’t wait to take another tour with this company.
Could not recommend enough! Our guide Marie was vivacious and incredibly knowledgeable. She was conscious of time, diligent about our safety walking, and extremely personable. All 8 stops were incredible and allowed us to try food we definitely would have missed. The tour also includes a coupon book of partners with the company, not just the locations included on your tour.
What an enjoyable, tasty and educational 3 hour tour! My wife and I had such a great time walking the streets of Greenwich Village. Our guide made personal connections with each guest, asking questions. She told the history of the area and specific eateries and buildings from the Dutch settlement in the 1600s right to today. The history was awesome, the sites and neighborhoods were so nice and full of energy. Of course, the food we experienced was fantastic - ingredients and tastes were incredible. We loved this tour and are looking forward to doing food tours in different neighborhoods when we visit again in the future.
This tour really gives you a glimpse into the origins of this magical place in NYC. Our guide was knowledgeable and made the experience come alive. The food was fantastic (and plentiful!! Don’t eat a big breakfast before you come!). Be aware that this tour focuses on the very early time period (late 1700s/1800s) with just a few touches about the 50s-60s. Also, consider bringing a water bottle with you. There were only 2 stops that included any sort of beverage-the first and last.

LOCAL NEW YORKER
As a NYer, I like being able to suggest places to eat to friends. Before the tour I was skeptical when I heard that things were “the best” because you hear that all the time. But I have to say that the food tastings on the tour were the absolute best food I’ve eaten in NYC. I’m sold on experiences like this from FNYT.

Your food tours are my favorite activity in NYC. They are so much more than just being walked from place to place, eating food. The food is the vessel but you also get to experience the city in a way that goes way below the surface that I scraped on previous visits. These tours make me feel like a true insider!

FIRST TIME IN NYC
This trip to New York was my 1st visit and it was a bucket-list trip for me. But I was also nervous. Everybody who had been to NYC told me that eating out was so expensive. With this tour, I could go to some of the best restaurants in the city and get multiple hours of entertainment for a really great value!
THE STORY OF
ONE HUNGRY MAN
It really all began in 1977 by sampling the perfect slice of thin crust New York style pizza.
Meet Todd, Owner and Founder
My first journey to New York City with friends was in the Summer of 1977. I was 15 years old and I had $5.00 in my pocket; enough for a round trip bus ticket, the perfect slice of thin-crust pizza and, quite possibly, the best cannoli I’ve ever eaten. That day ended outside a tiny cafe listening to an elderly man playing a sitar. This food and cultural experience was the beginning of Foods of New York Tours, even though I didn’t realize it at the time.
