One of our favorite permanent installations is the Ancient Egyptian Tomb set up in the middle of a gorgeous glass enclosure in the middle of the museum.

228 W 10th St, New York, NY 10014, USA
(212) 255-5757

Italian cuisine in New York City's West Village, complemented by an extensive, mostly Italian, wine list. Some of the best Italian food we have ever.


Pro Tip: if you can't make a reservation and you have a small group show up 15 minutes before the restaurant opens and grab a seat at the bar. We prefer sitting at the bar here and highly recommend the Cacio e Pepe.

Ladurée

Sure it is a little touristy, but in my opinion, Laduree is the perfect post museum snack. We always hit this Laduree spot after visiting the museums when we visit.


If you need a coffee with your macaroon, Ralph's coffee is just 2 blocks away from this spot.

Little Prince

For a very New York brunch scene check out the popular french bistro inspired Little Prince. This place gets fairly busy so I recommend making a reservation.

Bagelworks

Whenever we want to grab a quick breakfast before going to a museum we visit Bagelworks. This classic New York bagel deli offers various spreads & lox plus other baked goods presented in compact quarters

The Pony Bar

This bar has been a favorite for years. Nothing fancy about this place, just a great craft beer selection. If beer doesn't interest you this is not the spot for you.

Dominique Ansel Bakery

The bakery where the Cronut was created. I personally love their frozen s'more. It is chocolate chip ice cream wrapped in a marshmallow that is brûléed and served on a stick.


It is also in Soho, so plenty of good shopping and fun restaurants to explore in this area as well.
