The Best French Fries in NYC (and Montauk)!

For those of you who don’t personally know me, Ally, I am french fry obsessed. If I see fries on the menu, I will not hesitate to order them (even if I’m trying to be healthy!). Ever since I was little, I’ve been this way. So the next time you run into me at a restaurant, come say hi! But also don’t be surprised if I am eating fries. As a born and raised New Yorker who has been french fry obsessed since day one, I thought it would be fun to create a guide for the best fries in New York City (and Montauk because I recently went to Duryea’s and had to include their basket of fries in this). This guide is categorized by type of fries for picky eaters like me🍟enjoy!
