Wake up to delicious gourmet Italian coffee. Instead of hiking all the way to Eataly keep an eye out for their truck around Astoria. It’s been spotted around 30th Ave. and 31st St.

Lunch:

Farid Grill/Farid Kebab

Stop by for a kebab for a snack or some chicken over rice  or a sandwich for lunch. Though they take a bit to serve because they cook the meat in front of you on a charcoal grill, the wait is definitely worth it. Sidenote: They also do delivery.

King of Falafel & Shawarma

This Astoria truck classic is a local favorite. They are praised for halal platters, falafel, shawarma, you name it.

El Rey del Taco I & II

Another Astoria favorite, El Rey del Taco is some of the most delicious and authentic Mexican food around. They have everything from tacos to tostadas to even huaraches. The beef tacos and a refreshing Jarrito make a perfect late night meal.

Langos Food Truck

This doughy Hungarian flatbread can be served plain or with your toppings of choice. It’s a bit on the heavier side so it’s a great plate to split with a friend. Be sure to check their Facebook and Twitter for their location.

Dessert:

Cones, Shakes, Sundaes on the Water

This is just your typical, straight-from-childhood-memory ice cream truck, but you just can’t beat the view. Walk off your dinner through Astoria Park and walk over to the water. The truck will be waiting for you to satisfy that sweet tooth.
