ATHLEISURE LIST | FILTHY FLATS

Filthy Flats opened in March of 2023. The name is indicative of the end result after topping their crispy flat bread with fresh, flavorful, and delicious sandwich options. Also, one’s hands and face might become slightly filthy while devouring such a delectable sandwich.

Founders Randy Narod and Joseph Anzalone began the Long Island Bagel Café chain over 20 years ago, but it was Joe who has been working to perfect their signature hand-rolled bagel over the past 30 years. Realizing they could keep the same recipe and process, then simply flatten the bagel to create a crispy base - Randy decided to try a new open-faced concept. He met with Joe who attended culinary school and had a prolific background in food preparation and presentation as well as innovative chefs from Elegant Affairs Caterers, which Randy also co-owns, to create a diverse and delicious ALL DAY menu putting a unique spin on classic sandwich favorites.

They takie dietary restrictions and preferences of its customers into consideration when creating the menu. They introduced a gluten-free cauliflower flat bread as a substitute for their flat bagel. This holds the toppings well and is equally as tasty while serving the dietary needs of its customers.

If you're swinging by for breakfast, we suggest their Bacon Egg and Cheese, Avocado and Feta, and Tuna Melt. For lunch, their Cranberry Chicken Salad, Cubano, or Mike's Hot Honey Pepperoni Pizza is a great open-faced meal! For dinner, we're thinking about Korean BBQ, Reuben, and their French Dip (roast beef melt). Of course, you always need dessert and we suggest The Cannoli, The Nutty S'more, and The Strawberry Cheesecake.

Each quarter they introduce new selections which are their Philly Cheese Steak and the Chicken BBQ Ranch.

To add to your meal, you can add Plain Tots, Tots with Cheese, and Tots with Bacon and Cheese. They also have grab-n-go items like bagel chips paired with Cranberry chicken salad, tuna, and avocado, as well as sweet treats.

In addition to dropping by, you can order online for pick up or delivery direct at filthyflats.com or through DoorDash, Grubhub, or Uber Eats. They're expanding and will be opening more stores before the end of the year, so look out for them to pop up throughout NY!
