Barney Greengrass

Upper West Side & Central Park


The self-proclaimed ‘King of Sturgeon,’ Barney Greengrass serves the same heaping dishes of eggs and salty lox, luxuriant caviar and melt-in-your-mouth chocolate babkas that first made it famous when it opened over a century ago. Fuel up in the morning at casual tables amid the crowded produce counters, or take lunch at the serviced cafe in an adjoining room.

In addition to an array of Jewish delicacies – seriously, try the smoked sturgeon – you can, of course, get a commendable New York bagel.
