Astoria certainly is not lacking in restaurant options, but your wallet might not appreciate if you eat out every day. That's why we put together a list of the neighborhoods best menu items that won't break the bank.
The Spanakopita at Cafe Boulis is a spinach pie bursting with flavor wrapped in a flaky filo dough. 😋For $4.50, this cheap eat is hard to beat.

Local bought products reign supreme at the newly opened Hutch Astoria. Top quality meats and products sourced from local shops come together to make this incredible Loaded Cheese Burger. All beef and stuffed with bacon bits and pepper jack then topped with more pepperjack, crispy onions and garlic aioli on a brioche bun make this burger outstanding. 🍔😋
Hurry over and try it today!
What should you do if your landlord raises your rent, but you simply can’t afford the increase due to the pandemic?

And now, a word from our publisher @sonia.mylonas :
We did it, Astoria – we survived 2020. From a global pandemic and political unrest, to murder hornets and a toilet paper shortage, it’s safe to say we’ve officially seen it all. We hope you and your loved ones made the best of the holidays and the homestretch of this chaotic year. And if you haven’t already, please: go ahead and take the long-awaited, deep sigh of relief we all deserve. In this issue, the very first of 2021, we invite you to join us in leaving the past behind and embracing the beauty of new beginnings. With the noise of the election quieting down, coupled with the nationwide distribution of the COVID-19vaccine, we hope to give our readers a break from mass media and bring them closer to home, reminding them of the little things in life – things we can all find in our very own backyard (or around the corner; you know what we mean).From delicious (and affordable) hidden gems that can accommodate any dietary preference, to sidewalk shopping, to some good, old fashioned Astoria history, this issue has everything you need to make sure you start the year off right! From our family to yours, here’s to a new day, Astoria.
Looking to be a part of Astoria's surge in goodwill? Volunteer and make a difference at a local organization like @9hugs_org.
Their global work includes implementing a water system for a community in Africa. But you can get involved locally where their work is currently focusing on COVID-19 relief by way of distributing food to those in need.
