Little Italy is located in lower Manhattan and is easily accessible by subway, bus or car.
From the East Side: Take the 6 subway downtown to the Spring Street station. Walk East 2 blocks to Mulberry Street. OR Take the M103 bus on Lexington Avenue down to Grand Street and walk West 3 blocks to Mulberry Street.
From the West Side: Take the N or R subways downtown to the Prince Street station. Walk East 3 blocks to Mulberry Street. OR Take the F or V subways downtown to the Broadway/Lafayette station and walk East 4 blocks to Mulberry Street and then walk south.
Walking beside the narrow, cobblestoned streets beneath the fire escapes of turn-of-the-century tenements, you’re tempted by the sights, sounds and smells of Italian cuisine and culture emanating from the restaurants surrounding you at every step.
Remember, Little Italy isn’t just a San Gennaro Festival in September, it’s year-round. You may not be able to win that stuffed animal, but you can still sure stuff yourself! A coal brick oven pizza…a hearty glass of Chianti…a zeppole…a cannoli…you’ll find it all in New York City’s Little Italy.
