The BEST food tour in NYC - If you want to skip the line on the best NYC Viral food spots, then this is 100% the tour you want to join. Apollo bagels, L’industrie pizza and L’Appartement4f all had super long lines. Varun said the L’industrie pizza line was one of the longest he had ever seen, and estimated a 1hr 45 wait....yet with him, we sailed past all of them, straight in and we were eating within 5 minutes! There were around 7 stops on the tour and its impossible to pick a favourite...however ( and in no particular order) we loved the Raspberry Croissant from Apartment 4f, the bureka from Buba Bureka (which we had never heard of but was delicious) alongside the bagel from Apollo bagels and the pizza from L'industrie. Sweet Treats were also delicious. The tour was at a lovely relaxed pace, allowing us to soak up the atmosphere of the West Village. Along the way we also got to see the Friends apartment, Carries place from Sex and the City and Washington Square Park. As a host, Varun was exceptional, bring everything from hand sanitiser to forks, and telling us all sorts of interesting facts about the west village. If you are thinking of booking a food tour, we have no hesitation in recommending that you choose this one over all others. Travelling from Ireland, we wanted to cover the viral spots quickly, and this tour enabled us to to this (and more). Our top tip is come hungry and enjoy!

Had a great and comfortable time while trying out the different foods - Loved the efficiency of the food tour! Hits a lot of the NY classic meals but the best of those. Along with classics, you will also almost definitely get to try something new as well! Also get to learn a bit of the fun facts about the area!

We loved the Viral Food Tour! - Highly recommend the Viral Food Tour! You can't beat the feeling of walking by a huge line and going right in, VIP. Varun & Devin are the best hosts and get everything ready for you so you can enjoy exactly what you came for, the food. They're also so knowledgeable about each place they take you to, sharing the information about the food, the owners, and the cultural significance. Whether you're a local or an out of towner, taking a Viral Food Tour is totally worth it. My only piece of advice, come hungry!

Best bites and sights in the Village - Wow! Great tour! For out-of-towners like us this tour provides insider access to the tastiest (and hottest!) bites while wandering around Greenwich Village. A great way to start any visit to New York City.

Amazing Food/Beautiful Village/No Lines!! - Loved everything about this tour!!! This is a gorgeous part of NYC, Devin is exceptionally knowledgeable and the food, the food, the food! I went in with no real knowledge of the places we visited and was blown away by each stop. Hard to choose a favorite but the burrata pizza was sublime. Waltzing past a huge line at each stop, our guide, Devin took care of everything. In between the food stops, he included fascinating history of the area. We visited a beautiful garden, ate in Washington Square Park, and when he found out I was a Taylor Swift fan, he even made a special detour just for me to see Cornelia Street!
