Some of us get paid on the last day of the month, making this weekend a bit of a penny pinch. So you want to go out and have a drink, but you know you can’t afford dinner. Check out this Guide to Finding Free Food in NYC.
There aren’t too many in the Upper East Side, but there are a ton in Soho, the Village and Chelsea.
