Today is a day for celebration. It is TripleMint’s beloved marketing manager Austin Bradley’s birthday today! In honor of his special day, here are 5 fun things you can do in Greenwich Village for a birthday.
1. Relax at Washington Square ParkThere’s nothing more relaxing than kicking back on a sunny day and doing a little people watching. Washington Square Park is the perfect place. There’s always steady foot traffic and the fountain and archway, modeled after l’Arc de Triomphe in Paris, provide a beautiful ambiance. Buskers are common so you may get a front row seat to an impromptu jazz concert.
2. Enjoy Some MusicIf you prefer to spend your birthday with some booze and your besties, we recommend The Bitter End. Famous artists from Bob Dylan to Lady Gaga have played here. Lesser known rock bands are the usual acoustic fare, but T.B.E. also books folk and country artists semi-regularly. Good food, great drinks, and live music, what more could you ask for?
3. Art and Alcohol Class up your booze and bestie birthday bash at Le Poisson Rouge. You’ll love browsing the art gallery while drinking professionally mixed cocktails like their pickle juice and Jameson infused LPR Pickle Back while wonderful pieces of work at Le Poisson Rouge. LPR is a classic New York establishment that you won’t find anywhere else.
4. Broadway ShoppingReady to blow some of your savings on a well-deserved present? Celebrate! It’s your birthday; Greenwich Village is known for its boutiques. Take a walk down Broadway for everything from jeans and shoes to pet supplies.
5. Pig Out Greenwich Village is the site of many notable restaurants. For a meaty fine dining experience, the Strip House is the place for you. Want to know what our favorite Greenwich Village restaurant is? Ok, we’ll tell you. It’s Amélie, a wine bar with a french flair.
