Queens Catering by New York Fine Foods

Queens Catering

Backyard parties in Astoria, family gatherings in Forest Hills, office lunches in Long Island City. One kitchen, a lot of different tables.

Cooking for the Most Demanding Food Borough in America

Queens is the most linguistically diverse place on earth, and the food expectations follow. A guest list here routinely spans four cuisines' worth of standards, and half the room has a better version of something at home.

So we ask more questions before we quote. Who's coming, what do they actually eat, and what's the dish that has to be right. Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal and kosher-style requests are normal for us, not an accommodation — and we label the trays so nobody has to ask what's in what.

What We Cater

Events Across Queens

Backyard and driveway parties

Much of Queens still has the space for it — Bayside, Whitestone, Middle Village, Forest Hills. We set up outside and keep the food coming.

Large family gatherings

Engagements, graduations, birthdays and religious milestones for a headcount that keeps growing after you send the invite. Trays scale better than plated service here.

Long Island City offices

Working lunches and team dinners across the LIC towers and the Astoria studios. See corporate catering.

Apartment and co-op parties

Elevator buildings across Rego Park, Sunnyside and Jackson Heights. Tell us the building rules and we'll work inside them.

On the Menu

Hot trays by the half or full pan, tossed salads, side salads by the pound, and party heros by the foot.

Pizza Truck

The Pizza Truck in Queens

Driveways in Bayside and Whitestone, park permits in Astoria, a lot on a commercial block in LIC — the truck works in most of Queens, and the constraint is almost always where it parks rather than whether it fits. Tell us the address and we'll sort it out.

Questions

Do you handle halal, kosher-style, vegan and gluten-free together?+

Yes, and in Queens that's a normal booking rather than a special one. Give us the counts when you book and we label every tray.

Do you cater in Long Island City offices?+

Yes. Recurring team lunches and client dinners across LIC and Astoria. We'll send a certificate of insurance to building management ahead of the date.

How much notice do you need?+

A few days for drop-off trays. Four to eight weeks for staffed events and anything in graduation season.

What areas do you serve beyond here?+

All five boroughs — Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx and Staten Island — plus Long Island, Westchester, New Jersey, the Hudson Valley and Connecticut. Travel beyond NYC may include a small fee, quoted upfront.

Do you provide bartenders as well?+

Yes. TIPS-certified bartenders, liquor liability insurance and the Caterer's Alcohol Permit handled by us. Open bar packages start at $26 per person, or hire bartenders only from $22.
