We get asked ALL THE TIME where to go for a large group meal. Believe us, after celebrating countless birthdays in New York City, we understand the struggle. Most places either don’t take reservations or have a minimum large party spend. We’ve compiled a list for you with lots of good options for your next celebration. This is a living map, which means that anytime we find another great spot for a group, we'll add it to this list & you'll automatically get the update! It comes with an interactive map too! Each restaurant we recommend in this guide has been personally vetted by us. You'll find our price rating, what we recommend ordering, info for how to book, & links to our TikTok reviews!

Following the pandemic, where restaurants are smart to remove any barriers that keep customers from visiting, finding a spot that offers no reservations is somewhat of a rarity. Luckily, you can still find a number of places that are walk-in only for when you’re feeling spontaneous (or forgetful). Whether you’re looking for the best restaurant in Chelsea market to sit at the counter, or need to find a swanky dinner in Brooklyn on the fly, we’ve rounded up some of our favorite walk-in only spots around the city.
