Hoboken: Hudson River Summertime Stroll, Pier C Park, and Mamoun's Falafel

September 10, 2026
πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ United States Mamoun's, Washington St, Hoboken, NJ, USA

Join us for a beautiful summer evening in Hoboken, mostly by the Hudson River. But first we'll get a delicious and inexpensive dinner at world-famous Mamoun's Falafel. Mamoun's Falafel is outstandingly good and nicely inexpensive. Longtime New Yorkers can tell you about the continual line streaming out the front door, at any time of day or night, at their original location on Macdougal Street in Greenwich Village. Founded in 1971 and featured in the book 1,000 Places To See Before You Die, it is New York's original falafel restaurant. Mamoun's has expanded with locations throughout the Tri-State Area. They seem to particularly focus on college towns and scenic towns, with locations (among many other places) in Hoboken, New Brunswick, New Haven and Princeton. As good as the New York locations are, the non-New York locations are even better. Why? Larger menus (with more menu items) and more-and-better seating space. One item I particularly love is their "Pickles" (pickles, pickled turnips and olives). It's my favorite pickled dish anywhere in the world, and it's a perfect accompaniment.... https://www.meetup.com/vegetarian-nyc/events/316169480/
