Woodside is a neighborhood out of central casting: very Queens, very old New York and new New York, very diverse, and very unexpected. Walk down Roosevelt Avenue and feel the rumble of the overhead subway and train (the Long Island Railroad stops in Woodside), hear five or six languages spoken.

Woodside is the epicenter of Irish pubs in Queens. At the few blocks where 61st Street, Roosevelt Avenue, and Woodside Avenue meet, there are at least half a dozen pubs where the Guinness is fine, the accents authentic, and the football soccer. Also nearby are Irish-theme gift shops and cafes that highlight tea over coffee.
