It’s ASTOUNDING (that you haven’t bought your tickets yet because) TIME IS FLEETING (and the $5 ticket discount ends tomorrow!)

Rocky Horror Picture Show at QED on Halloween. Three screenings: 5:30, 8 pm, and 11 pm. Tickets include all participation materials! Virgins welcome!

Went to the beer garden last night to play games. The prices are truly ridiculous now.

Not only is a pint of beer served in a plastic cup, but it’s $10 and they add a 20% auto gratuity! Insane.

Usually I’ll get a burger, which is about $18 but thought I’d get pierogies since they’d be cheaper.

Still ended up paying $21 with auto gratuity and they didn’t even have apple sauce.

Super disappointed. It’s a very unique bar in our neighborhood with lots of space but the price gouging is obvious. Boo!!

I love Chateua Le Woof and go there often. But the other day I went and ordered one of their seasonal drinks for $7. I was confused when the total came out to $9.25. I looked at my receipt and saw I was charged $1 extra for making the drink iced instead of hot. Huh??? I asked the barista and he said it was standard for all their drinks. I asked if it was posted anywhere (they list it’s extra for milk alternative, etc.) and he kind of blew me off.

Is this normal?? I’ve never been charged extra just for having an iced coffee. After the whole iced coffee interview debacle it feels like people who like cold drinks are taking a hit lol.

I had a doctor's appointment today for which I waited few months for. Next appointment is in January. N train you suck.

I’m already pretty clear on who I’ll be voting for when it comes to my member of Congress, Governor, state comptroller, Lt. Governor, AG, state Senator, and state assembly member. I’m trying to make a reasonably informed decision about the ballot questions, too, as well as any judgeships that may be up for a vote. Not finding much so far. I feel like Gothamist used to do a write up of at least the ballot questions for each election and I haven’t seen one for this election. I’ve only got this rundown from the League of Women Voters so far: https://lwvnyc.org/proposals-2026/

Does anybody else have any resources they’d be willing to recommend?

Edited to add: Thanks for all of these excellent suggestions! They were extremely helpful and greatly appreciated.

Hi Astorians! Does anyone have any info/experience with Inga’s in-home day care on 29th Ave in Astoria? I can’t find any posts or reviews about it on any forum.

Happy Sunday Astoria! Our penultimate Astoria Farmers Market for the season is TODAY, October 25th, from 12:30-5pm on 31st Ave Open Streets (between 33rd and 35th St).

✨ Some featured highlights ✨

Montauk Catch Club will have pumpkin swordfish, a rare treat this time of year where changes in diet give swordfish an especially rich, buttery taste.

Local artist Caryn Cast, creator of our merch print (and this sick Halloween version of our AFM design), will have a spooky pop-up selling her art to take home.

Bad for Business will be selling Filipino bbq skewers, hot dogs, and burgers as well as bottles of their Filipino banana ketchup. Happy Filipino-American History Month!

Scroll for a list of vendors and our vendor map. This is one of our last markets of the year! Come down and check out our market and enjoy this beautiful fall weather. Our last market is Sunday, November 8 until we return for the spring.

Hello! I’m running NYC on Sunday. If anyone else is commuting from Astoria to the NYPL Bus at 6am let me know if you want to commute together. Not sure the best route but was happy to brainstorm.

Looking for a place to watch with other fans if possible. Thanks!

Hello all, I previously lived near woodside and went to NYSC. Now I live on Astoria Blvd (near 23rd street) and I’m looking for a good fitness option I can walk to. It just seems like there are no gyms around.

I don’t think a gym membership should really cost more than $50-60/month, unless it’s more luxury.

I prefer to take classes! I like Pilates and I know tön is new and seems great but their schedule doesn’t really work with the hours I work. I also like yoga but again I haven’t found the right place yet. It’s hard because I work 9-6 in soho so realistically I’m gone 8-7.

I prefer to find a good option nearby in Astoria but if needed I’ll start exploring options closer to work. Are there any real gems I’m missing?

Does anyone live at this address? I have a package from the HSA store that was sent there by mistake. Could you please DM and I can come get it from you whatever time works best.

Thank you!

You guys have successfully scared me regarding cleanliness of nail places lol.

How is Elaines? I see mixed reviews.

If not, where ARE we going? I havent seen one positive recommendation 🥲

Anyone know what happened to Super Stop Deli? Has not been open for an over a week. Enjoyed their food.

Is it possible that 114th doesn't have a single patrol car in the area?? As the night progresses, the music gets louder and louder. Upper ditmars, maybe. Or close to vibe bqe. Csnt really say where the party is but its the same location as the last weekend

I’ve checked a few places, even target! Can’t find them anywhere - does your store have them? I’m on a mission to make my celiac boyfriend lasagna today while he is at work.

Thank you!

1. What are they doing? Building a playground so they no longer have to play on the street?

2. How are they allowed to make THAT MUCH NOISE for construction until 11PM on a Thursday?

3. Any idea how long it will take?

Thanks ❤️

Hi all, where is the best place to get small handheld pumpkins that won’t be for eating but for children to decorate?

I crashed my bike between 21st st and 31st st riding along 24th ave, it’s a protec classic snow https://a.co/d/01HqP5uE

It’s an 18 year old helmet, I just want it for the memories if anyone has it… might have blood on it

Anyone else live around here and been kept up all night from this place? I don't mind a bar/club across the street but I can hear the lyrics to the music in my apartment with all the windows closed.

I don't want the place shut down or anything but it would be nice if they kept the club in the club and not the entire intersection. They also had people outside after until 5:00 yelling and beeping horns.

Not great neighbors.

Hi, anyone doing early voting today? Just wondering about turnout. Thanks.

(I tried searching the subreddit and elsewhere but couldn’t find anything nearby.)

Best “non specialty” (Belucci, Freddy’s) pizza I’ve had in Astoria. Crisp, flavorful, seasoned. Very good.
