Best After-Hours Eats in NYC

What do you do when you're leaving the bar or club or concert and haven't a chance to eat? Or you had a late lunch and missed the dinner hour? In New York, that's no problem--you can still get great food. Here are eight spots that stay open until 2 am or later--some of them all night long.

Best NYC Brunch Spots

From the deluxe Sunday smorgasboard at Aquavit to the endless Bloody Mary menu at Prune to the stunning skyline views of the River Cafe, make your morning-into-the-afternoon meal something to remember.

Gallery-Hopping in Chelsea

West Chelsea is the hottest destination for New York City’s gallery scene—and Saturdays are prime time for touring the area, as many galleries open up for free receptions or special events. While you're in the area, take a stroll along the High Line, an old elevated railway that's been converted into a stunning public space, complete with great views and noteworthy art installations.

Ten Best Hidden Gems in NYC

Some of these gems are hidden in plain sight--The Museum of the City of New York, for example, or the fascinating Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum, which looms over the Hudson River just west of the West Side Highway. A ferry ride will take you to Governor's Island during the spring and summer months, when you can enjoy great views of the city skyline and picnic on the island's main green. Hop on the subway for the rest of these destinations, including the majestic Cloisters in the Bronx; City Island, with its old-fashioned fishing-village feel; Empire-Fulton Ferry State Park in DUMBO (featuring equally spectacular views, but from a different angle); or the funky P.S. 1 Contemporary Art Center in Queens. Queens is also home to one of the city's only remaining beer gardens, Astoria's Bohemian Hall & Beer Garden. It's one of the three featured eating/drinking gems on our list, alongside the spare, charming Soho eatery Salt and Applewood, a temple to local/seasonal dining located on a quiet street in Park Slope.

Top 10 - NYC on a Budget

You don't have to break the bank to enjoy a visit to the Big Apple...there are plenty of bargains to be found even in one of the most expensive cities in the world. For shopping and great cheap food (try the dim sum), head to Chinatown. Tour historic South Street Seaport and pick up some discount Broadway tickets at the TKTS booth there. Check out the Union Square Greenmarket, or head to Coney Island for a walk along the boardwalk and a Nathan's Famous hot dog. At Upright Citizens Brigade, catch cheap--or even free!--comedy shows. Corner Bistro burgers and Caracas arepas are among the city's best, and Angelica and Tartine draw crowds for their great food and BYOB policies. For dessert, scoop up a sweet Italian treat at the tiny Il laboratorio del gelato. Finally, the Cosmopolitan in Tribeca gives you an affordable but comfortable home base in a great location for exploring the city. Photo: Coney Island's Wonder Wheel. By Sarah.

Your First Time in New York City

If you've never been to New York City, chances are you have a good idea of some of the places you want to check off your list. One of the most-photographed and most-filmed cities in the world, New York is home to the Empire State Building, the Statue of Liberty and Times Square—and these are just three of the many iconic spots that attract close to 50 million tourists every year. Unlike many top tourist destinations, New York is appealing to visit in the rain, the snow and the heat of summer, though spring and fall are undoubtedly when the city seems to shine the brightest. It's not a cheap vacation destination, though there are bargains to be found, and some of the best dining in the city can be enjoyed for very little money. (There are even some who swear that the "real" New York City dining experience can only be found by sampling the hot dogs, sandwiches, roasted nuts, dumplings and other products sold by street-cart vendors from Central Park to Chinatown.) Here are the top 10 must-see attractions in New York City, the ones that draw the biggest crowds and the ones your friends will ask you about when you come home. Five can't-miss dining destinations offer some of the best "local" cuisine, including overloaded deli sandwiches at Katz's and authentic brick-oven-style pizza at Lombardi's. After dinner, unwind with a little musical entertainment, a cocktail, or a beer at some of the city's most welcoming culture clubs and watering holes. Finally, go a little bit beyond the usual tourist checklist for a better idea of what makes New York City one of the most vibrant, most historic, and most interesting cities in the world.
