Hungry? The Union Square Night Market has returned this fall to satiate your cravings for crepes, wraps, bowls, and but of course, the trendy Dubai chocolate. And that’s only to name a few options.
The beloved food festival kicked off the 2025 season last spring on May 29th, returned for a brief summer run, and reopened again on September 4th. Whether you’re looking for a quick bite or something hearty, this foodies’ paradise has a little bit of everything.
