New York City is well known for their food, but well known for the cost of this food, and the sometimes lengthy lines to eat at nice restaurants. Everyone loves to go out to eat with their friends and families, it's fun, but you have to know when and where to go if you want to have an affordable and wait-free dining experience in New York.
If you're a fan of Alice in Wonderland, you have to visit Alice's Tea Cup. Alice's Tea Cup is a tea shop themed around the movie, but the lines get long. Arrive before 10 in the morning to avoid these lines. Reservations can be made for parties of more than 6 people. Prices range from about 20-30$ for tea sets, or if ordering individually roughly 10 dollars per person. Definitely check it out if you like tea and or Alice In Wonderland.
Pluses: Cool atmosphere; good food - try the scone; large selection of hard to find teas.
Cons: only one bathroom; slow service; too much breakable crockery around for very young children to cope with.
For good, family style pizza visit John's Pizzeria (located in Times Square and on Bleeker St.). Their pizza is thin crust new york style and sold per pizza, not by slice like many other NYC pizza places. A whole cheese pizza with cost you around 12 bucks, which is pretty cheap, especially for New York. Don't worry about your kids being too loud as the restaurant is always bustling, it's a busy but fun atmosphere.
Pros: tasty pizzas; efficient service; affordable prices.
Negatives - Bathrooms are tiny, it can be a bit crowded, and drinks are expensive
Those of you traveling with pets out there may have trouble finding good pet-friendly places to eat in New York. However, look no further than Fetch Bar & Grill in the Upper East Side. Not only are dogs allowed at the restaurant, but they're encouraged, with a water bowl provided to keep you pet calm and comfortable. They serve typical american food like hamburgers, steaks, potatoes, etc., so even the pickiest of eaters should be able to find something.
Upsides: Serving size is more than adequate. Dog Friendly. Service is really good.
Downsides: Never seen the menu change & for some reason they don't give free drink refills
All of these restaurants have a lot of unique stuff to offer, while not sending you into a coma over the prices and lines. Give one or all a try - with any luck, you'll leave New York with a full belly and happy memories!
