Bronx Night Market 8.3
Fordham (Fordham Plaza)
Bronx Night Market is a seasonal open-air food market at Fordham Plaza where rotating vendors serve everything from giant mozzarella sticks to empanadas and sweets, and leashed dogs are welcome throughout the grounds. It feels more like a neighborhood block party than a single restaurant, with music, crowds, and plenty of snacks you can enjoy while walking your dog.
