· Brooklyn's Finest
We do not run a lights tour
Staten Island Christmas lights means a December drive past houses and a few public displays. Brooklyn's Finest Pizza does not publish a map, a route, or a list of addresses. We will not invent one. Displays change every year, some are on private lawns, and hours belong to the people who put the lights up. Use a current local source if you want a route. Use this page for the meal before or after the drive.
The shop is at 1250 Hylan Boulevard, Staten Island, NY 10305, on Hylan Boulevard. A loop that stays on the East Shore can end here. A loop at the other end of the island should eat at the other end, or plan a real drive. Our Tottenville and Huguenot pages are pickup pages. They are not light displays, and they are not promises of delivery.
Hours, including Christmas Eve
On an ordinary day the shop is open until 10:00 PM, and until 10:30 PM on Friday and Saturday. Sunday opens at 10:30 AM. A lights drive that ends at 11:00 PM is a closed door here. Eat first. We do not publish separate Christmas Eve or Christmas Day hours. Call (718) 815-7070 before you plan December 24 or December 25 around this kitchen. The Christmas Eve catering page says the same thing: no holiday menu is printed, and the regular week is not a promise for a holiday.
If the shop confirms it is open and can take a tray order, the food is the regular catering list. Half trays serve 6–9. Full trays serve 10–15. There is no printed cookie platter and no seven-fish menu. Do not add those. Ask about the date. A yes on a normal Thursday is not a yes on Christmas Eve.
What to eat when you are cold
A pie in the car is the simple version. A large is 8 slices. A slice at the counter is $2.99 if you are only stopping. Soup is on the menu, minestrone, lentil, chicken rice, and Italian wedding, if you want something hot that is not pizza. Check the menu for those names. Coffee and hot chocolate are not a list we are going to invent. Coffee is on the drink list. Order what is printed.
The dining room is the warm version. Walk in during posted hours. We do not take reservations for a normal table. A group that wants the room for a December gathering should use the parties page and call. We do not decorate a description of holiday lights inside the restaurant, because we are not publishing a display.
Have the drive, then eat
Order at Order Online, which is order.brooklynsfinestsi.com, or call (718) 815-7070. On an iPhone or iPad, the app sends the same menu. If you are feeding a car full of people after the lights, order the pies before you start driving so pickup has a time. Delivery still has to be inside 4 miles. A scenic address is not automatically in range.
Staten Island Christmas lights are worth a careful drive and a current map from someone who tracks them. This shop is worth a pie when you are done, at 1250 Hylan Boulevard, Staten Island, NY 10305, if we are open. Call before a holiday. Read the catering page if the lights night is also a house full of people. Then go look at the lights. We will be on Hylan, selling the regular menu, on the hours the phone confirms. Eat before the drive if the drive will end late. A slice is enough between houses. A large is enough for the car. Soup is on the menu if you want a bowl. Coffee is on the drink list. We are not a lights stop, and we are not open past 10:30. Christmas Eve is a phone call, not a guess from a Thursday schedule. Trays are the regular trays if we confirm the day. There is no cookie tour and no map of lawns. Use a current local list for the lights. Use 1250 Hylan Boulevard, Staten Island, NY 10305 for dinner if you are on this side of the island and we are open. Check the location page for the ordinary clock. Check the phone for a holiday. Then go look. The lights are someone else's December. The pie is ours, on the days the kitchen is actually cooking. Eat first if the drive will run late. A slice between stops, a large for the car, soup if you want a bowl. We close by 10:30. We do not publish a lights map or Christmas Eve hours. Call before a holiday. Use a current local list for the houses. Use 1250 Hylan Boulevard, Staten Island, NY 10305 for dinner if you are on the East Shore and the phone says we are open. Ordinary hours are on the location page. Holiday hours are whatever the shop tells you that week. There is no cookie tour. There is a regular menu, pies and trays, on the days we are actually here. Look at the lights. Then eat. Do not build the night backward from a closed door. The drive is theirs. The meal, if you want it from us, has a clock. Check the clock. Then go.
