The Picnic Basket

Great spot in Midtown for fresh, quality sandwiches . The sandwiches are expertly packed and have a nice brightness to them with flavors that range from Mediterranean, Italian to Asian fusion

It's a nice place to grab lunch , especially if you take it to go and have it in the park . Then it's a real picnic in the park ???? I recommend the Mediterranean salad (comes w pita+tzatziki)& sandwiches

Big portions , the Chimi Chicken sandwich is amazing. The pita chips in the hummus snack are too hard, but the hummus itself is delicious. Worth the price.

The med egg is fabulous indeed. And so is everything else on the breakfast list. Do try it out for a lovely breakfast (*˘︶˘*)

Chicken pesto panini on ciabatta has fresh mozzarella and sundried tomatoes . Tastes great with the harissa aioli it comes with on the side

Holy moly. The breakfast brioche with ham and cheese is ridiculously good. This place plays swanky old tunes and has power outlets to recharge you!! I will definitely be back!

This place is awesome. The crunchy tuna sandwich is without doubt the best tuna fish sandwich I’ve ever had. It almost feels incorrect to call it that.

Yup! My favorite is the Mediterranean breakfast platter because it's just absolutely delicious. The coffees are tasty and the cookies are out of this world.

A NowThis News staple, The Picnic Basket's Mediterranean Egg Sandwich with a coffee for $6 is the best breakfast deal around. Try it out!

Superbly prepared sandwiches and panini . Excellent, high-quality ingredients in creative varieties. There are three or four tables with seating.

The Mediterranean Salad is so flavorful! Definitely enough for a lunch , especially since it comes with a side of Pita . Try the sweet potato fries side if you're extra hungry! Both great.

Now hidden behind the massive chick-fil-a line ... little do those line-waiters know they're missing some of the best sandwiches in the NYC metropolitan area!

Breakfast sandwiches . Spicy sauces and dressings are great. Crunchy tuna on pita or the grilled halloumi with chimichurri sandwich are my go-tos.

A really good place! Also for students. Don't forget to grab here something to eat to enjoy it at the park ! ✌️☺️

The others are right, the med egg is an excellent breakfast option . Who new omelette and hummus worked together?

Awesome gourmet sandwiches ! One of the hidden gems in midtown for a healthy and delicious meal. Also fairly priced !

Loved the mediterranean and the friendly service ! Will spread the word!

Brioche breakfast sandwich was outstanding. Yummmmm! Would nosh again. A++++

Great quick lunch spot with delicious salads and sandwiches

Top notch sandwiches (try any hot pressed ), friendly fast service and a nice atmosphere. Bypass all the cookie cutter lunch spots !

Prosciutto Sammy is amazing

Every sandwich I've gotten here so far is amazing. Turkey & Herbs hot pressed on an Italian Ciabatta is to die for!

Egg sandwich is a nice breakfast option ! (hint: it's their only breakfast item but it's Delish!). Filled w hummus , chopped Mediterranean salad in a pita :)

The Mediterranean turkey w/ spice is delicious. Med Egg is also a good breakfast choice.

Get the French goat cheese sandwich . You won't regret it. Also delicious pair with the garlic mayo !

Basically all their sandwiches . I had a roast beef sandwich today and it was amazing.

A sigh of relief for lunch places in this part of Midtown. They have the best hummus bowls!

Med egg w/ hot sauce . Such a pleasant surprise. Texturally divine. Cheap , too.

Great spot for a healthy lunch . Love the root vegetables and feta salad !

The dressed kale and tuna crunch sandwich is the way to go!

Best breakfast & lunch in the garment district. Med egg & hot pressed turkey .

The Tunisian tuna sandwich is really good. Hummus and chips are good too

My favorite former Bite employee - Shay - opened up this midtown lunch spot . A weekday must!

The crunchy tuna sandwich changed my life.

Very friendly owner and staff , delicious sandwiches . Place could use a few more bears though (eh, boo-boo?)

This small sandwich shop has a commitment to quality that raises above its Midtown peers.

People are super friendly ! Their roast beef sandwich is delicious and a good size for the price you pay!

A hidden spot in Midtown that offers great sandwiches on ciabatta and multigrain bread .

You can't go wrong here. Fresh, delicious food. Try the quinoa salad .

Great breakfast sandwiches . highly recommend the Med Egg (spicy )

Mediterranean Egg Sandwich (Spicy !) ➕ ☕ for 5⃣ is the best breakfast deal around.

Had the Chicken Melt which comes with a sauce that absolutely makes the sandwich .

Small lunch spot . With really tasty clean food.

Nothing like a spicy egg pita in the AM, the egg and humus combo is really good!

The med egg is the best breakfast sandwich I have ever had!

I'm definitely coming back for more goat cheese and sweet potato fries .

The veggie sandwich is amazing and definitely worth trying.

Good for a quick lunch

Turkey sandwich with goat instead Swiss cheese is AMAZING!

Great sandwiches ! Try the chicken melt
