Special Discount Offer: New Year Offer: Neighbourhood Eats Tour: Brownstone Brooklyn Experience

Brooklyn’s Smith and Court Streets and surrounding neighbourhoods have a vibrant mix of small, locally owned, and artisanal food shops, unlike almost any other neighbourhood in America. On this Brooklyn food tour, you find out how these unique spots came to be, and with a local guide, you discover just what it is that makes them special.

From Italian to Middle Eastern, New American to everything artisan, this NYC food tour shows you the best bites Brooklyn has to offer, from the people who make cuisine an art form. We visit both old school haunts and new culinary entrepreneurs to experience an exciting menu of both traditional flavours and daring dishes.

We stop by Italian and Middle Eastern shops that have long been the staple of the neighbourhood, and explore the growing scene of cafes and restaurants specialising in New American cuisine. While we enjoy their delicacies, we learn about the neighbourhood’s rich history and changing character.

From bread shops, Italian pastry stores, cafes with coffee roasters, and the oldest Middle Eastern bakery in NYC, this corner of Brooklyn couldn’t get more unique if it tried. The shops and food in this area have been featured in the press and on TV all around the world, from Australia to France. Some of the original businesses in this neighbourhood have succumbed to the many challenges facing small business owners in New York. Learn about those challenges and how we can continue to support them to keep the neighbourhood vibrant and delicious.

The tour will end at The Chocolate Room.
