Black-Owned Restaurants, Retailers & Landmarks in Westchester
Submitted by Gwen Tundermann on
Westchester and the Hudson Valley have played a critical role in the history of African-Americans in the United States. In recognition of Black History Month, we’ve rounded up a list of 15 Black-owned restaurants, businesses, and historical sites to celebrate the cultural contributions and history of people of color in our region.
Generations of Black families built the Hudson Valley and continue to contribute to the vibrant cultural, culinary, and artistic character of our region. Further inspiration has come from people who have immigrated from the Caribbean, bringing with them the rich cultural heritages that continue to shape our neighborhoods.
Here then are some of our favorite Black-owned businesses in Westchester and the Hudson for you to enjoy.
