What Guests Can Expect On Our Astoria Walking Food Tour

Just a short subway ride from Manhattan, Astoria is a vibrant and unique neighborhood in Queens. It’s a cool and appealing spot, celebrated for its cultural diversity and its rich array of delicious, eclectic food options from authentic Greek cuisine to Middle Eastern fare. It’s a melting pot of cultures, and that’s not a cooking metaphor. We walk through Little Greece or “Greektown,” where the food, people, churches and entire vibe make you feel like you’re walking the streets of Greece — not Queens. Within steps, we make our way to “Little Egypt” where we walk by various Middle Eastern businesses and sample cuisine from the region. Residents from various South and Central American countries are also represented in Astoria, and our food palate takes full advantage.

Yes, Astoria stands out as a gem in Peter Parker’s hometown, offering a rich cultural experience, a friendly community, historic architecture, numerous green spaces, and a diverse culinary landscape that makes it a must-visit destination.

Visit These Awesome Locations On The Astoria Food Tour

Tap

Say cheese! We visit this Brazilian cafe, which is 100 percent gluten-free, for Pão de Queijo AKA traditional cheese bread, which blends three cheeses: mozzarella, swiss and parmesan. So delicate yet crunchy… you’re thanking us already and you haven’t gone on the tour yet.

Delicias Caleñas

Delicias Caleñas is a Colombian restaurant that serves up a variety of traditional dishes such as arepas, empanadas, and bandeja paisa. Guests will appreciate its authentic flavors and warm, inviting atmosphere.

Mediterranean Foods

You’ll step into Greece almost literally by going into this Greek market for a sample of olives and feta cheeses. Opa!

The Corner Spot

There are so many things to choose from their menu (their coffee is among the best in all of NYC), but for us, their Spinach Pie is one of the best food items in all of New York City. This delicious, savory Greek pie with phyllo dough is spectacular.

Duzan

Arayes is a grilled pita filled with ground meat, onions, spices and herbs yet to just put it that way doesn’t make it sound as breathtaking as it is. Arguably the scene stealer of this tour, this Middle Eastern dish is already part of your “five-star” review for this tour. You just don’t know it yet.

Al-Sham Sweets and Pastries

Having a food experience you’ve never had before is rare. That’s where Al-Sham’s Knafeh comes in. Chances are having this traditional Arabic dessert, a spun pastry soaked in syrup and cheese, comes in. You’ve had nothing like this. Part dessert, part pizza — all everything.

Tipsy Scoop

Spiked ice scream FTW? You know it. We end our tour with an All American classic with a twist. Get a shot of boozy ice cream with a side of, what else, baklava. Non-Alcoholic flavors available.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much food do I get?

More than enough for lunch. You will be full by the end of the tour. Unless you’re that Man Vs Food guy.

Are you crazy?! Of course it is! But seriously, all your food is included in the cost of your ticket. Feel free to buy extra along the way, although you’ll probably want to save it for later because you’ll be full of what we give you.

We will do our best to accommodate food allergies and dietary restrictions, and many of our stops are experienced in handling a variety of needs. However, we cannot guarantee that all stops will be able to accommodate specific allergies, as some menu items may contain allergens or be prepared in environments with a risk of cross-contamination. If you have an allergy, please let us know when you book so we can communicate with our partners and explore available options. For severe or life-threatening allergies, we recommend exercising caution.

Guests can cancel and receive a full refund up to 24 hours before the tour start time. Contact us by phone or email to cancel or inquire about a cancellation. Customers will also receive a full refund or credit in case of operator cancellation due to weather or other unforeseen circumstances. No-shows will be charged the full price.

The walking food tour will go rain, snow, or shine. If there is really bad weather, the tour may get postponed, but we will try to get in touch with you early enough to change your plans. Bring an umbrella if needed.

There is no tip included for your guide, but 15-20% is customary. This is, of course, if you have a good time, which we guarantee!

Yes. You bet!

Dress is casual and weather appropriate. Wear comfortable shoes; remember it’s a walking food tour. Bring an umbrella if needed.

I know you’re not really asking this, but I just wanted to put it on here. Please be 10-15 minutes early!

Although cash is king, we ask that you buy a ticket via credit card.

Naps are awesome! But this tour is better. We started Nice Guy Tours because New Yorkers have a bit of a rude reputation, and we are trying to crush that stereotype one tour at a time. Buy a ticket; you won’t regret it. We make three promises: you’ll have fun, you’ll learn something, and you’ll leave full.
