Day 1: Soho Shopping & Greenwich Village Charm
Morning: Start your NYC bachelorette party itinerary, by unleashing your inner Carrie Bradshaw! We’re starting with a shopping spree in Soho, one of my favorite neighborhoods in NYC.
Visit the iconic boutiques on Prince Street, browse designer shoes and bags, gorgeous accessories, and stunning dresses. This is such an amazing shopping neighbourhood in NYC, and I love strolling along the cobbled streets and browsing my favorite stores.
Midday: Take a break at the legendary Sadelle’s for a decadent brunch featuring challah French toast, towering smoked salmon platters, and bottomless mimosas. This is the perfect fuel for a day filled with fun activities, and it’s a real show-stopper for your NYC bachelorette party itinerary.
Sadelle’s can get busy as it’s so popular (so I recommend booking in advance if possible!) but I know you’re going to love it. It’s a classic NYC brunch (cream cheese, salmon, bagels, yummmm!).
Afternoon: Next up, it’s time to stroll up to Greenwich Village, another beautiful little neighborhood in NYC Whilst you’re there, you can check out the famous apartment building used in the Friends TV show!
Once you’ve had a few selfies infront of that, wander through tree-lined streets, explore quirky cafes and vintage stores, and take pictures with the Washington Square Arch.

After Greenwich Village, be sure to visit Little Island too, a floating park offering stunning views of the Hudson River. It’s only a short walk away (or jump in a taxi to save your feet!). The park is so unique and magical, and I know you’ll all love it. This is a great pick for your NYC bachelorette party itinerary.
Evening: Enjoy a delicious dinner at Chelsea Market (a perfect food choice for this NYC bachelorette party itinerary!), it’s a haven for foodies with a plethora of foodie options. Choose from artisanal pizzas, noodles, portuguese tarts, fresh seafood, international flavors, and craft cocktails! There are also some super cute stores here too – so it’ll keep everyone happy.
Drinks: End the night at a rooftop bar in Midtown, where breathtaking views and glitzy cocktails await. Enjoy signature drinks while admiring the dazzling cityscape, making for the perfect “cheers to the bride!” moment. This is a great end to your NYC bachelorette party itinerary!
Here are 3 you could try:
- 230 Fifth – A Live Music Venue, Restaurant and Bar, this place has it all. Located in the heart of Midtown in NYC, overlooking some of Midtown’s most famous skyscrapers.
- Refinery Rooftop – Located at the Refinery Hotel, this rooftop bar provides an industrial chic atmosphere with views of the Empire State Building and a menu featuring craft cocktails and light fare.
- Dear Irving on Hudson Rooftop Bar – Located on the 40th & 41st floor inside the Aliz Hotel, this place is a stylish but cozy option for rooftop drinks!
Day 2: Times Square Thrills & Broadway Magic
Morning: It’s day 2 of your NYC bachelorette party itinerary! Grab your coffee fix at a cute cafe near Bryant Park (there are a few scattered around) and then sit and do some people-watching in the iconic Bryant Park.
After coffee, wander through the iconic Times Square. You can’t visit NYC without soaking in Times Square, but heading there in the morning can help you avoid some of the crowds. Strike a pose with costumed characters, soak up the electric atmosphere, and capture those quintessential NYC photos. An unmissable part of your NYC bachelorette party itinerary.
Midday: Refuel with a delicious lunch near Times Square. There are plenty of affordable dining options near Times Square (and plenty of pizza places in Times Square too – if you want to try an iconic NYC slice!). So check them out for some ideas and inspiration.
Afternoon: Time for some adorable selfies! Reach for the sky at Summit One Vanderbilt, a new(ish) observation deck with breathtaking 360-degree views of the city. Take envy-worthy panoramic pics and on top of the world.
What I love about this place is the variety of views on offer, and the unique and artful way they’re presented. It’s so much more unique than other observation decks in the city. It’s a great option for your NYC bachelorette party itinerary, and so much fun.
Evening: Enjoy a budget-friendly taco feast at a local joint (Los Tacos #1 is a firm favorite) – think carne asada, al pastor, and all the fixings. Wash it down with margaritas and get ready for a night of Broadway magic!
Late Night: Catch a show-stopping performance on Broadway, if you’re got the budget. If you’re in NYC, Broadway is a must-do. And there are so many amazing shows to choose from at the moment. From classic musicals to edgy dramas, there’s a show for every taste – and I wrote a list of how to choose here.
Day 3: Central Park Adventure & Rooftop Dreams
Morning: Before you start day 3 of your NYC bachelorette party itinerary – indulge in a leisurely brunch at Maison Pickle first! This charming spot is known for its drool-worthy breakfast sandwiches and creative cocktails, and it’s one of my must-visit spots whenever I’m in the city.
Tip: My favorite dishes are the French Dip sandwich, and the Fried Honey Chicken French Toast. I’m drooling just thinking about them!
Midday: Escape the hustle and bustle of the city with a relaxing stroll through Central Park. My NYC bachelorette party itinerary wouldn’t be complete without Central Park. Central Park is easy to reach from Maison Pickle, and walking around the park is a wonderful way to walk off the food you just ate!
Rent bikes for a scenic ride, or simply wander the picturesque paths and soak up the nature vibes. I recommend spending a few hours in Central Park, so you can feel like you properly exploring this magical part of the city.
Here’s a free walking route that you can follow, which takes you through all my favorite areas of Central Park!
Afternoon: Hop on a double-decker sightseeing bus for a fun and informative tour of the city’s landmarks. You’ve probably had two big days of walking before this one, so this is a chance to sightsee without the aching feet!
Drive past iconic sights like the Empire State Building, the Brooklyn Bridge, Wall St, all with the wind in your hair and the city unfolding before you. It’s such a fun activity for your NYC bachelorette party itinerary.

Evening: End you day with cocktails and dancing at the Skylark bar in Midtown. This is one of my top rooftop bars in the whole city – but you’ll need to book ahead!
There are amazing views of Times Square and the Empire State Building, and the DJ is always putting out amazing music too. Perfect for a bit of dancing, lots of cocktails, and many cute selfies.
Day 4: Boozy Brunch & Brooklyn Buzz
