    Nothing like shopping for Christmas presents on a cold crisp night with a cup of hot chocolate in hand and the bright lights of NYC above. There are multiple outdoors holiday pop up shops that appear each year but this one at Bryant Park is one of the biggest in a terrific setting. All types of vendors are here and if you're a foodie it definitely offers a diverse selection for any palate. Can be a bit pricey depending on what you're looking for but the quality is worth it. Take your time, and appetite, to explore each row of shops. We stumbled upon a few and picked up some thoughtful gifts. Better than shopping online or in a crowded retail chain store. Also, plenty of tables and chairs to take a rest, and clean bathrooms!

    I love the holidays in nyc. I've been here plenty of times this season but the other day my plans got cancelled and I decided to have a solo night checking out the shops and grabbing bites. It really wasn't as busy as I expected and I was really great ful to have such a variety of food and art so close by and accessible to explore. Such a great spot to experience nyc Christmas cheer.

    Always a long line here! Posted 01/08/20

    Four Stars because I've been coming here for years. I can't help it but it's starting to bore me. I really enjoy the atmosphere of Bryant Park, the Skating Rink and the Carousel. The Carousel is surrounded by all the vendors. In fact this event has grown to the point where I'm overwhelmed by the number of vendors. I believe this year was the least amount of time I spent looking around. It was cold the day I was there. I had a hard time finding anything reasonably priced. Everything they sell is beautiful. There's a huge selection if you're buying gifts. I'm sure I'll look forward to attending in 2020. If you're visiting NYC during the holidays I highly recommend. Bryant Park is wonderful. The Ice Skating is not as crowded as other rinks. It's a great experience. Bring cash and credit cards. Be prepared for crowds. A must for people that enjoy shopping. ENJOY!

    Earlier visit this month to holiday shops !

    Where to start with one of my favorite city stops ! I have always loved the hustle and bustle of holiday shopping . For several years i have been going to Bryant Parks holiday shops and i plan on continuing this tradition . Yesterday was my second visit this year ! There is a large selection of things you would expect and then things you can't imagine . Jewlery . clothing , artwork , bags, candles, and so much more ! i believe prices are fair and if your a " haggler " ( which i'm not ) i'm sure they could be better ! Everybody i interacted with provided friendly service ! I always applaud and support small business owners . To top it off there is a huge variety of food stands , many offering free samples . If you're inclined there is even an ice skating rink there ! Never tried it but maybe next time ! And there will definitely be a next time !!!

    Traveled to New York in early December and visited The Holiday Shops. The vendors in the park are decorated with a Christmas theme. It took a while to check out all the vendors, and there are also many vendors selling food and beverages. When you get tired, you can just sit down and enjoy the festive atmosphere. 12月初至紐約旅行時剛好遇上 The Holiday Shops,在公園內的攤販配上聖誕裝飾,很適合吃飽之後來走走逛逛,也特別有約會的浪漫氣氛!各式各樣的攤販需要花上一段時間才逛得完,也有很多賣食物飲料的攤販,逛到累了就坐下來吃吃喝喝,享受一下節日氣氛。

    My third year coming to the Bryant Park Holiday Shops. I love the holiday season and nothing is more festive than bundling up and walking around the Bryant Park Holiday Shops. Of all the holiday markets, this one is by far the best. There are a ton of vendors and the stalls are set up in a way that makes sense. You can easily walk around and see every single stall without having to backtrack. The walkways between the stalls are pretty wide, so even though it gets busy, it never feels too congested. You can't beat the views of the holiday market with the ice rink in the center and the high rises surrounding the park. The decorated and lit tree is impressive. Everyone seems happy. Yes, it's expensive, but that's expected. The food stalls are going to run up quite a tab if you try multiple places. The best things I had were the mozzarella sticks at Big Mozz, the truffle fries from Home Frite, and the flavored warm pretzels from Sigmund's. The one thing I regret not trying is the churros from a stand on the 42nd street side of the park. Lots of candles and socks and knit caps and gifts, as much as your wallet can handle. Avoid Squish Marshmallow. The s'mores was terrible (essentially just cold chocolate and marshmallow stacked inside two ginger squares). The rink is free if you bring your own ice skates. Otherwise, it's $20 to rent skates. I've never actually done it, but apparently lockers are also free, but you have to bring your own lock.

    This holiday market had many great vendors. The park was also a beautiful setting. It was worth visiting.

    Fun to shop, but super crowded on the weekends. Definitely go when you have time to spare as it'll take you a few hours to browse.

I love unusual pieces and she has a beautiful collection. It's relaxing and fascinating to visit her beautiful shop. Things range from easily affordable to investment pieces. I appreciate the research she puts in to her jewelry and getting a bit of background. It's part shopping and part history lesson. This makes for a very enjoyable experience. This is jewelry with a high level of refinement. Allison has a good eye and if she says something works, I believe her. Highly recommend this beautiful treasure box of a shop.

I immediately feel in love with her eclectic taste in jewels and her fantastic eye for unique pieces of jewelry. She is an absolute dream to work with regarding prices and layaway (which is how I am able to purchase such dreamy jewels). I cannot say enough great things about her as a person, a seller and a caretaker for the past. Next time I am in NYC I will make it my first priority to visit her retail location which I can only imagine will be a store from my dreams!
