Many of us think of Bryant Park as our go-to summertime lunch spot, but it really comes alive during the Holiday Season. So if you have not been over to BP since the weather turned, now is the time to check it out! First up, if you have been an uber Christmas shopping procrastinator, head over to the Holiday Shops in the Park. Since many of us have no time off due to the insane fashion industry schedules, here is a close spot to run over to at lunch and snag some last minute gifts. With over 100 different artisans and designers from around the globe, you can find really unique gifts. Perhaps we are a bit biased, but compared to other area Holiday markets, which seem to have a lot of crap, the BP shops are very quaint and artsy.
Besides shopping, one of our favorite winter activities is alive, well, and FREE at Bryant Park. That’s right, ice skating! They have transformed the lawn into an ice rink and if you bring your own skates it’s free. Don’t worry if you don’t own a pair, they do have a skate rental and offer lessons too. If all that skating makes you hungry there is an enclosed food lounge with views of the ice. For the holiday season the skate pond is open until Midnight, so enjoy! For more info click here.
If you need a little break from shopping and skating don’t forget the delicious gourmet sandwiches from ‘witchcraft or lounge with a spiked hot cider at the Southwest Porch. Read our post about the Porch here for more details. Whatever you are in the mood for Bryant Park is a nice reprieve in the heart of the Garment Center. So put down that techpack, step away from the computer, postpone that fitting, and head next door to Bryant Park this week!
