The Upper East Side holds many treasures that the students of MMC are lucky enough to have at their fingertips. Whether it’s a sweet treat after your 5:50 class, or a bagel run before your 8:30 am writing lecture, our neighborhood holds all the best. Keep this as your pocket guide to navigate those cravings while on campus.
- B&B Bagels
This neighborhood staple is the home of fluffy bagels and delectable bacon egg and cheese sandwiches that will be sure to fuel your early-morning lectures. Get your bagel accompanied by a delicious iced coffee, the New York way, or a ready-made salad to take away for lunch. The staff will bring a smile to your face, and while being located on 73rd and 1st Avenue, it’s the perfect place to grab a quick bite on those quick breaks before or between classes.
- Dubl Twister
Did someone say Ice Cream? Dubl Twister has been serving up homemade soft-serve ice cream since 1973. Located on 77th and York Avenue, this will become your favorite post-class sweet treat spot for soft serve, milkshakes, and coffee.
- Miss. Wonton
Who doesn’t love a dumpling run, especially when it doesn’t break the bank? A taste of our favorite $5 deals in Chinatown right here on the Upper East Side on 75th and York Avenue. A quick grab-and-go counter serving up vegan options as well as the classics like pork and chive, chicken and ginger, along with noodles and fried rice. It is the perfect spot to pick up lunch or a post-class dinner before you head onto the Q train.
The Monitor will continue to explore the best deals and pick-me-ups around campus so the students of MMC can stay fueled on a budget. Stay tuned for coffee, shopping, pastries, and more.
