Try something Sweet at Eddie's


Metropolitan Avenue in Forest Hills is home to one of the most nostalgic ice cream parlors in Queens. Eddie's Sweet Shop was first opened in 1909. Nothing beats the taste of homemade ice cream, whipped cream and hot fudge to top it off. This is a great place to meet up with a group of friends to chat and have some desert.

This is the type of ice cream parlor that gives you that old school feel. This ice cream parlor takes you back to your childhood and the feeling of getting a big cup of home made ice cream at the end of the day.

The ice cream shop scene in the 2010 movie "Remember Me" starring Robert Pattinson was recently filmed here last year.

Located in Forest Hills on Metropolitan Avenue.
105-29 Metropolitan Ave
Queens, NY 11367

Feeling Spicy?


Looking for a place to eat in Forest Hills that's fun and has some delicious spicy food? Try Cabana Nuevo Latino restaurant where it's always a fiesta! Cabana was Zagat rated in 2005 and 2008. They offer a wide range of Latin and Caribbean food that is guaranteed to leave your taste buds tingling at a reasonable price.

"It's Fiesta Time at this "Frenetic" Nuevo-Latino mini-chain where the hearty, tasty grub and HOT, HOT, HOT scene are just the thing "when you are feeling spicy" (yet the prices won't burn a hole in your pocketbook)".

They serve up lunch specials as well as dinner.
Cabana offers a "fresh catch of the day" fish which is specially selected from local fish markets. If you don't feel like dining and just want to grab a drink with a friend there's a bar located inside with some interesting drinks at a reasonable price.


Cabana is centrally located in Forest Hills on 70th rd in between Austin Street and Queens Blvd.
