Do you like gazing at the Statue of Liberty by the water?  Scooping spoonfuls of Blue Marble’s organic, rich ice cream into your mouth?  Washing it all down with a cool iced coffee? Then perhaps you’re a good fit to become one of Table Green Café’s prized customers. The Battery Park kiosk – open now – lures you in with its homemade cookies, creamy milkshakes, and muffins – but keeps you there with its spot on the southern-most tip of Manhattan and sparkling view of Lady Liberty and the classic Staten Island Ferry. 

Table Green Café is the miniature version of its neighbor Table Green – which offers savory snacks like flaky, grass-fed pig-in-a-blankets, organic ham and cheddar sandwiches, and a weekday, 5pm-6pm, $6 beer and $8 wine happy hour.

First stop: ice cream. Last stop: beer. Sounds like summer.
