Where to Grab a Late Night Bite in NYC

Sometimes it is difficult to find a late night bite in New York City. Whether you were up late studying and had a craving for some good food or you have been out at the bars, try these spots for your next late night bite. 

1. Burger Joint (119 West 56th St., New York, NY 10019)

This cash-only burger joint is hidden inside Manhattan’s upscale Le Parker Meridien hotel. It’s one of New York’s juiciest secrets.

If you’re out late in Midtown and craving a burger, Burger Joint is must. Hidden behind a curtained hallway in the Le Parker Meridien Hotel in Midtown is the Burger Joint.

Open until midnight on Fridays and Saturdays, the restaurant is known by some as one of the best places to get a burger in town.

The restaurant opened in 2002. Since then, many other locations have opened around the world, but the original is in the heart of Manhattan.

The menu consists of few items: burgers, cole slaw and beer. Try it with the works or pick and choose your toppings.
