The city that never sleeps is also the city that never stops eating. Our 24-hour access to food is, after all, the reasons so many New Yorkers couldn't imagine living anywhere else. But just because you’re hungry after midnight doesn’t mean you should settle for soggy diner French fries or questionable bar food and snacks. From piping hot empanadas to shwarma and pastries, these neighborhood late-night delivery spots deliver to your doorsteps.

Best late-night delivery in NYC

  • Restaurants
  • East Williamsburg

When a shawarma shop also delivers burritos and chocolate-chip pancakes with turkey sausage, you know that place is delivering at crazy hours of the night—and is probably located in Bushwick. Bushwick Pita Palace is there to feed your munchies until 1:30am.

  • Restaurants
  • Diners
  • Bay Ridge

Satisfy your sweet tooth with a cup of gourmet coffee and a delicious baked good—Black Forest Cake anyone? —at Omonia. The popular Manhattan cafe recently opened a Brooklyn outpost and, while they serve diner food as well, the desserts (caramel cake, oreo cheesecake) are the way to go, with delivery until 2:30am.

Sometimes, you’re just craving a gooey toasted panini. Right? Hit up Tost, which serves melts like cubanos, tuna melts and mozzarella-and-tomato sammies. Other options for 24-hour delivery include a burrito bowl, salad or quesadilla.

Midtown East: Morning Star Cafe

  • Diners
  • Midtown East

Indulging in seemingly every type of food imaginable, at all hours of the day, is the stuff NYC is made of. Waffles? Check. Huevos Rancheros? Check. Teriyaki sticks, stuffed grape leaves and linguini with clam sauce? Check, check and check.

  • Restaurants
  • Diners
  • Park Slope

After dark, this old-school Brooklyn diner tends to filled with patrons stumbling in from the bars on 4th and 5th Avenues in Park Slope. If you want to avoid the public display of stumbling, get Daisy’s delivered. You can’t go wrong with the club sandwich and side of fries.

Upper West Side: Insomnia Cookies
  • Restaurants
  • Bakeries
  • Upper West Side

It’s called Insomnia for a reason. The most famous late-night sweets in New York require a $6 minimum (plus a $1.99-$2.99 delivery fee) but will bring a box of up to a few dozens to your doorstep as late as 2:45am. You know, in case a bunch of cookie monsters showed up to your apartment for an after-party.
