Don't Tell Anyone, But This Is Secretly The Best Lunch Spot In The West Village

by Guest of A Guest · April 13, 2023

    The West Village certainly isn't wanting when it comes to charming corners and picturesque places... but a spot to escape the see and be seen crowds?

    The Mary Lane, from the team behind fellow neighborhood favorites The Little Owl, Market Table and The Clam, is without a doubt downtown's best kept secret. Tucked away on the quiet corner of Bank and Greenwich Street, this vegetable forward foodie haven is our personal favorite lunch spot in the hood. So yeah, you know it's good.

    King Trumpet Mushroom Tartare with capers, truffle dijon aioli, and crispy sunchokes.

    A Grilled Vegetable & Brooklyn Burrata Sandwich on sourdough with pumpkin seed-parsley gremolata.

    Spiced French fries served with chipotle aioli.

    Sold? There's also there lunch special - offering up 3 daily changing courses for just $19, which I think we can all agree by New York standards is basically free.

    Grab an outdoor table for the perfect sunny lunch date, order one of their delicious seasonal cocktails, and enjoy the parade of local pups on their afternoon walk.

    West Village living at its finest!
