St. Marks Place, one of the coolest streets in NYC!

Street vendors, karaoke, comics shop, grocery store, bars, cheap pizza, vegan ice cream, record stores, hotel and a variet of Japanese restaurants, That’s what you’re gonna find on St. Marks Place, between 3rd and 2nd Avenues (this street changes its name from 3rd to Avenue A, it is originally the 8th Street). The street is named after the nearby St. Marks Church, on 10th Street, in the East Village.

What I love the most about St. Marks Place is the vibe, especially in the summer. A lot of young and cool people walking around, going in and out the stores and eating great food. I’ve been there so many times and I shared some of my favorite places here on the blog before. One of them is the Spot Dessert Bar, serving creative and delicious desserts that are too beautiful to eat. And not so far from there you will find two cool places that I also mentioned here before: Decibel, an underground sake bar and Panna II, the coolest indian restaurant you will find in NY! If you’re on the opposite side of the island, make sure to stop by  MacDougal Street, another cool spot in the West Village.  Have fun! For more NYC tips make sure to follow me on instagram ( @marthasachser and @blognyandabout)
