Things to do in Queens, Queens: The Best Food & Drink

October 13, 2021 Hector Krause

Queens is the most ethnically diverse area of its size on Earth, which means there's a little something for everyone. Chow down on Indian food, sit in on a traditional Irish pub music session, and dance the night away at a Puerto Rican nightclub, all of it located within a few subway stops. Queens is also the home of the Mets and the US Tennis Open, and the former home of the New York World's Fair, now Flushing Meadow-Corona Park, and Paramount Pictures, now the Museum of the Moving Image.

Queens Food Tours is a unique and memorable food tasting and cultural walking tour of one of New York City's most unexplored and underrated borough-Queens. As Rodney Dangerfield would have put it, "we get no respect". You know that Queens is one of the most ethnically diverse places in the world, but did you know that when it comes to good eats, Queens is king!

Eat Your World Food Tours

I've made it my business to explore the world via food—I've traveled and studied cuisines in 40+ countries. With this informed perspective I show guests around the incredibly diverse neighborhood of Jackson Heights, where I've lived for 11 years and have led food tours for 8. I run tours specifically for families too. If you want to get off the beaten path for a local's take on a fascinating part of Queens, these tours are for you!

Queens Midnight Street Food Crawl

This experience goes well beyond the tourist safety zone into your most memorable eating experience in New York City.Trek down Roosevelt Avenue from Jackson Heights to Corona after the moon comes up, and see the street scene will undergo a dramatic transformation. The avenue comes ALIVE with activity and the flavors emerge as the most unapologetic in NYC. These Ecuadoran, Colombian, Dominican, and Mexican food stops aren't in Frommer's or Zagats, and they're not in any tourism guides.Only on the Midnight Crawl will you experience the Roosevelt Avenue street food scene in its full glory.

Single cut is a small craft brewery in Queens. Great beer and most excellent tacos. Worth the trip. We are IPA fans. Try the Conform or Be Cast out IPA. Wide range of sours, kolschs, Pilsners, etc. if you like beer, they have one for you. Nice atmosphere. Kids welcome. Indoor and outdoor seating.

Reviewed By Blubusdrvr - Baltimore, United States

Stopped by for a couple of beers (Miles From Nowhere and Humming Dragon). They're both IPAs and very similar actually. Hazy with a good hop bite. The MFN may have a better hop but the Humming Dragon has a spice that's good. Pick your poison!
