One of New York's most beloved neighborhoods, beautiful Soho with its archetypal cast-iron buildings has a rich and interesting history. From its heyday of being the original artists' playground, today's Soho is the home of high fashion flagship stores the world over. A neighborhood constantly in flux, new concept stores, pop ups, restaurants and bars arrive on the regular, while some gems have thrived through the decades, standing the test of time and rising rent. There's something to see, taste, try on and experience every step of the way on every street, here're some of my favorites.
Neigbourhood staple two-part bakery and coffee shop.
New York's biggest bike store and cycling community.
Birchbox's only brick-and-mortar flagship.
Saturdays brings surf culture and a healthy dose of laidback atmosphere to the sometimes overwhelming Soho. Stop by to browse through the surf and non-surf gear, magazines and apparel. The garden patio behind the store is a rarity in the city, you'll want to stay there all day, before film screenings in the evenings.
