Build Your Own Gourmet Arepas at a Midtown Window
Order from a walk up counter with no seats, a weekday stop on West 38th Street.
🥙 Lunch Through the Window
Costas puts build your own gourmet arepas at the center of a Midtown lunch stop. Walk up to the window on West 38th Street, place your order, and take your meal away when it is ready. The setup has absolutely no seating, keeping the entire exchange on the sidewalk rather than inside a dining room.
Sancocho soup gives you another way into the Latin American menu. Freshly prepared food scents the queue as the local lunch crowd gathers outside. Ordering ahead can help trim the wait on the pavement, a consideration when your break has a deadline. Keep your plans mobile rather than counting on a table here.
Find the window at 40 W 38th Street. Hours run Monday through Friday from 11 AM to 3 PM, with Saturday and Sunday closed. Aim for that daytime window before continuing through Manhattan with lunch in hand.
