Good for a couple of hours. Make it 3-4 hours if you do the pre-arranged tour. Handful of specialty shops and markets. Great Italian deli and fresh produce market. The fish market was high priced with good soups and the remedial sushi. Those guys need to go back to Sushi Rice 101. Iron Chef Morimoto has cool restaurant on the... more

Went to Chelsea, heard it was something to see...NOT! The place is not very inviting...stopped first at FAT WITCH. It was a FAT disappointment. The staff was snooty and rude. I bought 6 wrapped @ 2.50 each and 1 unwrapped for 1.50--the girl at the counter said..."it is 2.50 each". As if I didn't know and was not prepared to... more

Went here with my mom, and it was a fantastic place to wander around for a few hours. We ate our way through the entire market! At Eleni's, we had great cupcakes and coffee, then moved on to Fat Witch Bakery for an amazing cherry brownie. (They're kind of expensive a $2.50 a brownie, but the flavors are unique and... more

Chelsea Market makes a terrific afternoon excursion and provides the best overview of NYC snacks. Shops sell Italian and Asian specialties, as well as fresh breads, produce, meats, seafood, and desserts. Various seating is scattered throughout the market's wide center aisle allowing for people-watching and casual snacking. The market is also a terrific place to bring out-of-town guests. P.S.--The Food... more

If you are into interesting architecture, this is a great place to go. I enjoyed just looking around and browsing in and out of the stores. The specialty shops such as Eleni's are high prices and not really worth the $2.50 for a hard cookie, but I enjoyed my few hours in the market. more

On my last visit to NYC, I went to Chelsea Market on a Saturday around 5pm. It was not great. Chelsea Market is actually a mini mall with several stores inside. There is a restaurant, fish market, two grocery markets, bakeries, etc. I just didn't find anything special about it. The bakeries were either closed or ran out of a... more
