Meat and Bread

This place is great! The Cowgirl burger (BBQ, bacon, cheese, 4 onion rings) was a really good, hearty burger. The fries were probably the best. Every fry is battered, fried, and seasoned — a crunch in every bite. Get the house sauce on the side, it’s like fry sauce. Waffles were basic with lots of berries but they have waffle variations that we didn’t try but could be good. Service was friendly and fast! No complaints!

I came to Meat and Bread on a Saturday evening for dinner after hearing the meat they use is halal. The menu had a lot of great looking options to choose from and I decided to try the house ribeye steak sandwich. It was pretty good and filling but I was hoping for a bit more flavour or seasoning so I had to add some hot sauce. The service was very friendly and the restaurant was clean. The prices are on the high end but the food will leave you full for sure. I would definitely like to come back again and try some of the other delicious looking menu options.

Great place to get halal food in the city. They had many beef and chicken I options. Everyone at our table tried the ribeye steak burger that was very tasty with the meat cooked to our specifications. I also tried the masala chicken fries and although they were a bit hard, it was great tasting. In all, I would definitely recommend and will be going back to try more things from the menu.

Stopped here, hot and tired from touristy things. After we ate, we were happy and refreshed! GREAT lunch specials. The loaded fries were crazy good and the burgers and chicken sandwiches were just what we needed and wanted. To top it off, friendly atmosphere. Loved it and EASY 5 stars.

We ordered fried chicken and hot and sweet chicken burgers with cauliflower. It was a good experience. The cauliflower was a little hard. It could be better if soft. Overall a nice place.

Coffee shop serving unique cafe fare & baked goods

Milk And Honey Cafe

I have gone to milk and honey many many times. The vibes inside and outdoors are immaculate. The staff members are super nice and friendly. They will answer any questions!! I would say the food is average and the presentation is great but some of the items are overpriced. The overall experience is really great and I will always go back for more🙌🏽🙌🏽

The restaurant is very cute and the food is delicious however there are no servers to take your order so you have to order at the register. Which for our family was slightly inconvenient. Our coffees took a long time to get so they us a complimentary pastry which was tasty. Once we got the coffee it was very good and the flavor was bold. One of our favorite dishes was the French toast we didn’t even get to take a picture. The staff were not as attentive as I would’ve like. I don’t mind waiting but appreciate to be informed if there is a delay.

Food was good. I didn't care for the taste of the turkey sausage.  I ordered a hot green matcha but got iced.... but it tasted good. Other than that all was good.  Nice ambiance. Nice area with outside dining.  You have scan the code on the table for the menu. The server was polite.

A cute little spot; pictured is my customized brunch. Eggs on a croissant with pastrami. The sandwich was great, but 4 stars for the very little pastrami I got for the upcharge. I will pay another visit for other menu items.

Though this place is usually busy and crowded on most days, the wonderful aura of this place totally makes up for it. There is a level of independency in taking whatever table is available, and ordering from the place is quite easy.

The staff is nice and are willing to accommodate whatever you may need. It’s definitely a place to check out. The food was served warm and is aesthetically pleasing, and the taste for most menu items are 8+/10.

I ordered chicken flatbread and pastrami stack and both were 10/10. Oh, and the place being halal makes it one of the best cafes I’ve come across. So please be sure to stop by this little gem and enjoy!

Please don’t waste your time Okay let me brutally honest i was a big fan of this place pre pandemic best hookah best food I went during the pandemic it was okay I decided to go tonight the prices drastically increase not worth it . We had to sent the hookah back three times and then we gave up. The staff that work there was great  it wasn’t there fault you can clearly see is pure mismanagement✌🏽

Cool place to hangout and have a drink listen to music. Staff is pretty cool and friendly. Met some friends to hangout during the week.
With that said there is room for improvement.
While your trying to enjoy time they are continuously bringing supplies in. These things should be done prior to opening. (Just my opinion). Tables are dirty, in need of a wipe down. I must say I did not stay long. The menu only had wings!! Really!!!

I don't know if it was the particular night that I visited but the sound system seemed off, it hurt my ears to listen to the music. The drinks were way too strong, the bartender didn't know how to mix the drinks well. The DJ was all over the place with the music. I would however visit again to give it another try because I have heard good things. Like I said maybe it was just one of those nights.

A NIGHTMARE THE WAITERS ARE SO RUDE THEY WALK PASS LIKE THEY DONT SEE YOU.. You literally have to get up and go to the bar on your own.The hookah doesn’t last long . The blue Long Island tea is full of syrup 😑..The owner is a heavy set guy  he hardly knows out to satisfy customers all he cares about is get more people in the place . The music had no organization. If you have a party of 4 you have to spend a minimum of $140 .i order wings and fries it was $25 wing are $13 the fries are $10 .. The hookah is $20 depending on the kind you get ...

Lively, children-friendly Halal restaurant

Bigwell

ALL of my family does business with Bigwell. I get compliments on the food at all events when I've ordered with Bigwell. Good people, clean, & organized shop!

In the midst of so many restaurants in Queens with a similar concept, Bigwell Bakery & Halal Restaurant stands a cut above the rest with a unique Caribbean flavor and taste. I sincerely believe the secret ingredient is the incredible culinary talent and passion of the owner which is felt in every speciality from the chicken curry to the absolutely sumptuous fish cakes. It was definitely worth the risk of 
double parking on Liberty Avenue😁😄🙃. See you soon Bigwell!!!

bought food, pastry, coconut water and snacks. absolutely great service and polite staff. love it and will be there again

If I can give this restaurant 10 stars I would do so. I’ve been buying food and pastries from this restaurant since they were open. Their fried rice is perfected just like authentic guyanese Chinese. Are you looking for soft delicious cheese roll? Come here. Want a quick refreshing Mauby or peanut punch? This is the place to go to. I HIGHLY recommend the boneless jerk chicken fried rice if you’re a spicy food lover. 
For vegetarians; their veggie fried rice is very good. Keep up the good work to the staff and the owner ! They are very humble and patient with their customers. The owner is an outstanding, friendly person who will accommodate anyone to their best ability for any event that you may have or even just a simple dinner with the family!

Very Delicious food the fry rice is the best in queens Christeen  and Romona is the best customer service

Halal menu available. Ask staff for details.

Farine Baking Company

Awesome burgers and sandwiches!! Was pleasantly surprised how great my spicy Buttermilk chicken sandwich was. My food was lukewarm by the time I got it home but it was still delicious!! Can you believe that? The flavors worked so well -- fresh housemade pickles and slaw that balanced out the honey Sriracha sauce (which was generous but not overwhelming sweet or spicy). And the crunch on the chicken was still there, an hour later!! I'm just sad that there were no available tables so I could enjoy it right away -- probably would be even more awesome.  Lesson learned. Will just eat at a bus stop bench. 😆😆😆😆  
       Also friend tried their Swiss and shroom burger and loved it.  Both had a nice thick sesame bun and you can't complain about the sizes.  Both were hefty -- not like fast food flattened sandwiches -- and I couldn't finish my sandwich.  Totally worth the cost.  
       And you can take your friends that only eat halal there. (Especially those that have been disappointed by MUNCH in forest hills.)  
       It was worth the trek across Queens for Farine. Was looking for pastries but they were limited and I heard good things about their sandwiches. Fair warning though -- they make it fresh to order - wait is  25-30 minutes. Went this afternoon, and they are short staffed. Just one hardworking lady at register to take orders. Tried calling but no one picked up. They do have online ordering system. Will try that next time.

A welcome addition to Jackson Heights! I went to their soft opening today and was impressed. They have a wide variety of pastries, baked goods and cakes. I tried the pear tart, apple tart, carrot cake and napoleon. All were delicious. Service was a little hectic given the amount of people in the store at the time but I'm sure they will get the hang of it sooner.

I love this place. the food is amazing. This is probably the best burger I ever had in all of Queens and on top of that it's all halal. You also cannot leave this place without trying their gulab jamun cheesecake.

Absolutely great experience. Our waiter Alex was so pleasant and welcoming. He explained the menu and provided recommendations since it was our first time here for breakfast. The breakfast and dessert was great. Would definitely come back!

Love that besides the cakes and pastries they offer a lot of savory foods. Good spot for brunch if you don't want to go to the city. Here's the current brunch menu. 

Also love that the pistachio cake was not too sweet

Fitoor Cafe & Grill Lounge

I like this restaurant! They offer sensational food, their menu is varied, The chief cook in that restaurant is very trained, I love very much tasting all their dishes. The food is always of high qualtity, the attitude towards the guests  is agreeable. I often go to  this place and I not even once was unsatisfied. I recommend it with no hesitation.

Junooon Cafe is literally such a chill place to hang out with friends, eat, or hold a get together (in the lounge area with hookah)! The food was extremely delicious and there was a lot of variety of dishes - burgers, steaks, mixed grills, burritos, sandwiches - a little something of everything - reminded me a bit of affys menu! Their appetizer and shakes were very delicious too!!!! I loved the variety of dishes available as it is a great place for a big meet up as well and can suit everyone's taste! The service was excellent and made the experience an extremely great and chill one.

I've been to this cafe a couple of times and I must say that it's my most favorite place. I like the comfortable and chill environment plus the menus are surprisingly affordable yet scrumptious. The employees are very friendly and accommodating, and they serve you your order fast.

This is the best cafe ever and I am highly recommending Fitoor Cafe & Grill. This place is a must-visit to everyone.

Best place to chill in queens. Welcoming staff their house mix flavors are the best.

Good place to hang out, great enviornment. The music is cool with a mix of English pop and Punjabi. The staff is friendly and helpful. The crowd is decent since there is no booze allowed. They also have board and card games available to play.

Pause Cafe

After long time, this lovely place open again. The coffee was good the egg ricotta sandwich yummy even the spicy sauce . The French toast was average. 
The staff were friendly even when stayed for long time they were so nice.

Amazing service , great menu and reasonable price. Food was sooo good. Would definitely go back again, I loved it!

The decor is worth visiting this cafe for-beautiful Moroccan inspired paintings and accent pieces especially the mosaic water fountain. The food and staff were also absolutely amazing! Highly recommend their cheese scallion scone toasted with butter-one of the best scones I’ve ever had. Would definitely go back when I visit NYC again!

They really have some amazing tasting muffins and the sandwiches are out of this world good. So worth a try if you're new to the area.

One of the best cafes on the LES.
Like family. Delicious sandwiches, coffee and smoothies.
Top notch yummyness.

Cozy coffeehouse serving breakfast, sandwiches & smoothies in a homey space with Moroccan accents.
