The best New York street food
There's nothing quite like New York street food, from an iconic hot dog or a cold Mister Softee cone. While we love these iconic street eats, the small-business owners running our treasured carts and NYC food trucks have faced increasing regulations from local authorities over the years. But whether it’s a crew of close-knit siblings serving up their favorite recipes from their mom’s Indian kitchen or a Nigerian immigrant sharing his native country’s classics, we here at Time Out will always support our unsung, roll-up-your-sleeves carryout cooks by eating like real New Yorkers—on the street.
Below, you'll find must-eat street food in New York.
