Nestled near Washington Square Park, this charming spot serves thick, crunchy Belgian fries in paper cones, paired with a playful selection of over 30 gourmet sauces.
"That’s right, Pommes Frites is reborn from the fire, right in the middle of another neighborhood full of drunk people. Well, they aren’t quite re-born yet, as they are still working on getting themselves open. But once they do, we’re sure they’ll do quite well on a street that’s crawling with tourists, NYU kids, and now maybe you. We haven’t been here yet, but want you to know this spot exists." - Team Infatuation
"Nothing beats a great french fry, especially one that has been double cooked and furnished with a dizzying choice of sauces. Some of the best of these sauces are free, some entail a nominal charge at Pommes Frites, which was transplanted a few years ago from a location on Second Avenue in the East Village after an explosion and fire. Now the décor is more Tudor than ever, and never fear that the fries won’t make a full meal." - Robert Sietsema
"If you think making a whole meal of french fries isn’t a possibility, you clearly aren’t a student anymore. Pommes Frites is a fixture of food-intensive MacDougal Street. The fries are twice-cooked, Belgian style, and offer a bewildering catalog of sauces, some with an extra charge." - Robert Sietsema
"Belgian-style French fries served in paper cones are the province of this single-minded eatery, and you can choose from among dozens of toppings." - Robert Sietsema
