India Cafe Hours: Plan Late-Night Queens Dining
Check India Cafe hours before planning late-night dining in South Richmond Hill; compare halal meats, vegetarian plates and the listed price guide.
What do India Cafe hours mean for a late meal?
India Cafe hours make this full Indian restaurant at 94-08 Lefferts Blvd in South Richmond Hill, Queens, an option for late-night dining, but Tuesday needs a different plan. The source lists an 11 AM opening Monday through Saturday, a noon opening Sunday, and a 1 AM close on every day except Tuesday, which closes at 11 PM. Choose between halal meats and vegetarian plates rather than expecting a coffee-only stop: the asset names paneer tikka masala, chilli naan and mixed grill. Lefferts Boulevard is the location to check before setting out.
The useful distinction is Tuesday closes two hours earlier than the other listed evenings. Those overnight closing times belong to the following calendar morning, so a Monday evening meal can extend into early Tuesday under the recorded schedule. Check India Cafe hours with the restaurant if that distinction determines your trip. The supplied record does not establish a last kitchen order or guarantee a table near closing.
There is also a concrete budgeting limit. The asset carries a $$ price signal and example dish prices, not a complete current menu. Use the phone number below to confirm the timing and items that matter, then compare the menu and setting before committing to a visit.

How should you plan around India Cafe hours?
Start with the day you intend to arrive, not simply the phrase open late. India Cafe hours show the same 11 AM opening from Monday through Saturday, but the evening close is not identical throughout the week. Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday run to 1 AM the next morning; Tuesday stops at 11 PM. Sunday begins at noon and also ends at 1 AM the next morning. A Sunday lunch plan therefore starts an hour later than the weekday opening in the supplied schedule.
For an overnight meal, keep the arrival evening and closing morning together in your notes. The 1 AM close rolls into the next day; it is not a separate promise of all-night service. If your plans fall after midnight, confirm the relevant evening's schedule rather than assuming the next day's opening hours answer your question. India Cafe hours describe the recorded opening window, not how long an individual meal takes.
This timing pattern suits someone comparing a daytime visit with a later dinner, while Tuesday calls for an earlier finish. The asset gives no holiday exceptions, live table availability or last-order deadline. Calling (718) 846-2842 is the practical next step when a delayed arrival would leave little room before the listed close.


What can you order during India Cafe hours?
The source describes classic Indian cooking with halal meats and fresh vegetarian plates. Its named crowd favorites are paneer tikka masala, chilli naan and mixed grill, which give you a more useful starting point than the cafe name alone. If the decision is whether this is a place for a proper meal, the answer in the asset is yes: it operates as a full restaurant with a spacious seating area rather than only a coffee counter.
Use those names to compare a vegetarian dish with a meat option before choosing what to ask about. Paneer tikka masala is the documented vegetarian example; mixed grill is another named option in the description. The record does not enumerate every ingredient, portion, accompaniment or preparation method. It also does not establish a separate vegan menu, allergen handling or a halal certification, so dietary requirements need direct confirmation instead of an assumption based on the category tags.
India Cafe hours tell you when the restaurant is listed as open, but not whether every dish remains available throughout that window. Ask about the particular item you want if menu choice is the reason for going late. The photos add context to the food and storefront, not proof of the day's menu, serving size or a package that includes every pictured plate.
How should you compare prices and expectations?
Treat the recorded $$ category as a broad spending signal, then look at the examples rather than turning it into a fixed per-person budget. The asset puts popular entrees and appetizers such as Butter Chicken and Fish Fry/Pakora around $15.99, with naan around $2. It does not supply a full itemized menu, taxes, service charges or portion sizes. Combining those examples into a guaranteed meal total would suggest a precision the evidence does not support.
The description also notes higher prices after a management change, without establishing the earlier amounts or an effective date for each item. That makes confirming the current menu price more useful than repeating a claim of cheap dining. India Cafe hours can help narrow your visit window, but there is no documented happy hour, lunch deal or late-night discount to pair with it.
For expectations beyond price, the asset emphasizes flavor over decor and records a spacious seating area. The listed rating is 3.6 out of 5 across 520 ratings; that is a source snapshot, not a guarantee of your experience. This information suits someone comparing a straightforward sit-down meal with other nearby options. It cannot establish a wait time, service speed or a specific reason behind the aggregate score, so keep those questions separate when deciding whether to go.
What else should you know before going?
What are India Cafe hours on Tuesday?
Tuesday is listed as 11 AM–11 PM, rather than the 1 AM close recorded on the other evenings. That difference matters for a late visit. The source does not provide a kitchen cutoff, so confirm ordering time directly.
What time does India Cafe open on Sunday?
Sunday opens at noon and closes at 1 AM the next morning in the supplied weekly schedule. Monday through Saturday open at 11 AM. Treat India Cafe hours as recorded planning information, not a live confirmation of service today.
Where is India Cafe in Queens?
The asset gives 94-08 Lefferts Blvd in South Richmond Hill, Queens, New York. It identifies a full restaurant rather than just a coffee stop. Use the listed phone, (718) 846-2842, to clarify an essential visit detail before traveling.
Does India Cafe serve halal meats?
The supplied summary explicitly describes halal meats alongside classic Indian dishes. It does not provide certification details or an ingredient-by-ingredient account. If your choice depends on a particular preparation or dietary standard, ask the restaurant rather than expanding that statement.
Are there vegetarian dishes at India Cafe?
Yes. Vegetarian plates are documented, and paneer tikka masala is a named example. The record also mentions chilli naan. It does not confirm vegan suitability, ingredient substitutions or allergen controls, so a vegetarian label should not answer those separate questions.
How much do dishes at India Cafe cost?
The asset lists a $$ signal, examples around $15.99 for Butter Chicken and Fish Fry/Pakora, and naan around $2. These examples are not a complete menu or fixed meal price. Confirm the current amount for the specific dish you want.
Do I need a reservation at India Cafe?
No reservation requirement or booking link is supplied. The description notes a spacious seating area, but that does not prove walk-in availability or establish a table policy. Call directly if seating certainty is necessary; do not interpret missing booking information as no reservation needed.
Is parking or transit information available for India Cafe?
The source gives the address but no parking arrangement, station, bus stop or accessible route. This page therefore leaves those details unspecified. Check your transport plan separately and confirm any access requirement with the restaurant before relying on it.
