Union Square Holiday Market

Make sure to stop and try La Sonrisa Empanadas ! Best empanadas and great snack while walking around the market !

Check out kudu-lah for whimsical handmade art featuring monster-like critters juxtaposed in original photography . All the critters have names and bios too! Booth #8 near 15th / union sq. west

Seems to get bigger every year. Smells terrific, thanks to the stalls selling baked goods , soap/ body care/ shaving products, teas and spice, etc. Hot apple cider is a must.

the hot chocolate from "no chewing allowed !" is the best i've *ever* had. be sure to have them add a chocolate truffle for $1 extra! mmm.

Holy damn the hot chocolate from "No Chewing Allowed !" is AMAZING. Come at night, get yourself a cup and wander around the beautiful handcrafted wares.

More crafts and gift stands, but plenty of warm and delicious food, like hot Sigmund's Pretzels , Bar Suzette crepes , Arancini Brothers' arancini , and more!

Lots of vendors, but the selection had gotten less diverse and more expensive every year. Yummy snack options- hot apple cider is my favorite.

So much fun to come here and check out the little shops and food vendors!

It's true ... everything will be expensive because most of it is artisanal and handmade . Definitely try out the food stands !

Perfect setting to soak up all the local creativity. I support small business owners and so should you...

German Delights sells authentic pfeffernüsse (German spiced cookies )!

Gets crowded during the weekends but tons of booths and great to wander around a look for cute gifts !

A great market that closes at 8PM on weekdays. Less crowded than the market by Columbus Circle. Support local artisans .

Momofuku’s Christmas version of popular cornflake cookie is made of real peppermint cornflakes , chocolate chips , marshmallows & crushed candy canes and is only found at this holiday market .

my favorite winter to-do in nyc!! stop and smell the spices, and get a cup of hot apple cider , for sure. support your local business!

Get the hot chocolate from No Chewing Allowed . It's the best ever!!

Pro-tip: Yes, they'll take credit cards . But if you're in marathon-shopping mode, save yourself some time and take out cash beforehand!

Great collection of artists and craftsmanship , smells amazing too!

Coconut curry chicken empanada ! And a birthday cake cannoli ! Ohhhh and garlic/truffle frites too!

This annual open-air holiday market features over 100 vendors including many food purveyors.

Always a great place to hang out and grab a bite while sipping some hot cider .

Come get some great @LiddabiSweets . Including great seasonal caramels and candy bars .

Love this market , kind of reminds me of the holiday markets in Europe

Cute spot to wander! Bring a date to cuddle with when it's chilly out and split a hot cider together :)

The crowds can be overwhelming, but there are some very talented artisans with some unique gifts to be found if you look past the expected fare

I'm on the fence about this holiday market . The ambiance is amazing, but the cost for everything is highly overpriced, except the hot food items.

It's a little crowded to wander around at times, but still so much fun!

I come here to buy quirky bullshit for my obnoxious hipster apartment . The best chocolate chip cookies , too

Great shops!!! Worth walking around to find a unique gift !

One of the best outdoor holiday markets in the NY-Metro area!

Charming holiday market , probably my favorite in NYC

Get great quality presents (for yourself) at Lina's jewelry . They're expensive but worth it

Get a hot cider while walking through an unlimited supply of cute Christmas shops .

If you need a unique holiday gift . This is the place to go.

It's gotten so crowded recently. I've found the best time to go is weeknights.

Go to taste of Persia and get the Ash Reshteh vegetarian noodle soup .

Good little ornament shop where they inscribe a Christmas ornament with whatever you want.

Must stop by No Chewing Allowed and try their hot chocolate !!

Yummy food here - try the meatballs shop and the roast pork bun shop

Great gifts for the holidays! Check out the food on back end.

Check out these lovely hand-knit hoods at Nirvanna Designs.

touristy ? yes. crowded ? yes. might rain on you? yes. but still kinda fun and very xmas-y

Fun to check out but the food stalls are a madhouse.

Best holiday market in the city .

Always crowded but the (empanadas esp) make the gift shopping tolerable.

Too many people, but if you find the guy with the truffle oil BUY IT.

Wrap up warm and go drink some hot apple cider while wandering around the stalls.
