Pommes Frites is a beloved Greenwich Village gem where you can indulge in crispy, twice-fried Belgian fries served in paper cones with a dizzying array of gourmet sauces.
"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
"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." - chris stang
"A Belgian fry specialist known for its free sauces, especially the 'especial' with mayo, ketchup, and chopped white onions." - Eater Staff
