If you’ve been to a restaurant (or been on Instagram) in the past few years, chances are you’re no stranger to the avocado trend. From guac-topped burgers to avocado ice cream, crunchy avo-fries to (you guessed it) toast, all of New York City is serving up the fruit of the moment with creativity and class. It turns out there’s a whole world beyond avocado toast—who knew?
With the arrival of the “world’s first avocado bar,” Brooklyn has achieved peak-avocado with Avocaderia.

The perfect place to take your avocado obsession—and your IG feed—to the next level, Avocaderia is one trend with staying power.
New York’s favorite old-school parlor with a new and bold approach to flavor reinvigorates the avo-trend with its avocado ice cream toast (you read that right). This summer, Morgenstern’s Finest Ice Cream, which debuted its homage to the brunch classic back in 2015 to much acclaim, will roll out an avocado-banana-coconut sorbet that’s sure to make getting your five-a-day a delight.
As if offering 100% vegan fast food wasn’t innovative enough, by CHLOE. boasts a selection of avo-offerings you won’t soon find anywhere else. With menu options like avocado pesto pasta and the fan-favorite Guac Burger (served with crunchy tortilla strips, fiery aioli, and, of course, guac), this popular chain delivers refreshing fast food that won’t slow you down.
At Empellón, veggies are the unexpected guests at the table come dessert time. While unconventional ingredients including corn and chicory make appearances, it’s the restaurant’s artful avocado dessert that steals the show.

As a pioneer of the avocado toast trend here in New York City, it’s only natural that avocados feature heavily on the menu at this sun-soaked Australian café. Corn fritters with avocado sour cream, a two-handed BLT with avocado and sriracha mayo, and an avo-toast to top them all make Two Hands Cafe a go-to for avo-aficionados everywhere.
