That’s why so many things to do in Greenwich Village revolve around food – brand-new restaurants regularly open beside century-old mom-and-pop joints, and there’s no type of cuisine you can’t find on food tours in Greenwich Village.

      A history built on food and music

      Greenwich Village is steeped in history – much of it musical. A hangout for the beatniks, musicians and starving artists of the 60s, it’s the neighborhood once frequented by icons like Paul Simon, Bob Dylan, and Bruce Springsteen. The city’s artistic past echoes through its historic jazz bars and live music taverns – must-have experiences on the list of things to do in Greenwich Village. After a night of live music, why not visit some of the old eateries adored by the musicians of the neighborhood’s bohemian heyday? Today, they’re still some of the best restaurants in NYC.

        We are a family of 4 traveling with two children from Texas. We had a very specific NYC itinerary of our must sees.
