Central Market New York’s Whitehall Terminal location is a 24-hour, sandwich-centric counter where grilled-to-order breakfast sandwiches, hot coffee, and grab-and-go snacks are built for ferry commuters. With more than three decades of operation across its locations, it’s a pragmatic move when you need a substantial breakfast before or after the Staten Island Ferry.
