Father's Day weekend in New York books up fast, and the spots that are actually worth going to are usually gone before the second week of June.
If you're planning Father's Day brunch in Queens and want something that feels like a real occasion rather than just Sunday lunch with a prix fixe menu, Agenda in Astoria is the right call. A fusion kitchen, bottomless brunch, and a lounge that can carry the afternoon well past 5pm if the table wants to stay.
For families coming from anywhere in Queens, or from Manhattan and the Bronx, the location on 31st Street in Astoria is easy to get to and worth the trip.
Agenda's weekend brunch runs every Saturday and Sunday from 11:30am to 5pm, and Father's Day Sunday is no exception.
The brunch is prix fixe at $49 per person: one entree from the fusion menu plus two hours of bottomless drinks, excluding tax and gratuity. The kitchen pulls from the same American, Latin, and Asian influences that drive the dinner menu, which means the brunch plates are actually interesting rather than just eggs with a side of toast.
Two hours of bottomless drinks gives the table enough time to order properly, eat without rushing, and settle into the afternoon without watching the clock. The full menu is on the brunch page.
Not every Father's Day situation is a daytime brunch crowd. Some groups want to come later, eat a real dinner, and have the night actually go somewhere after.
Agenda handles that too. The kitchen opens at 4pm Wednesday through Friday and the lounge runs until 4am on Friday and Saturday nights. For a Father's Day celebration that doesn't want to wrap at 5pm, coming for dinner and letting the evening build from there is a completely viable option.
The All You Can Eat Meats promotion on Wednesdays and Thursdays — 90 minutes of nonstop meats and sides for $49.99 per person, with unlimited margaritas available for $15 — is worth considering for any group that wants a Father's Day dinner earlier in the week with serious food volume and a room that knows how to handle a party.
Happy hour also runs all day on open weekdays and until 8pm on weekends, so there's a real window to come in, get settled, and order before the evening builds.
The range is worth knowing upfront. Expect entrees that pull from American comfort food, Latin-influenced dishes, and Asian-inflected plates, giving the table enough variety that everyone finds their order. The bottomless component covers drinks for two hours, which at a fusion brunch in Astoria at $49 per person is a strong value relative to what most comparable restaurants in Queens are charging right now.
