Len's Papaya

Do Not recommend buying a lot of Pizza at same time they always charge you more... Even explain to them they always denied it, but the Pizza is very good...

It costs too much, but I guess that's expected in a ferry terminal. They recently shrank the size of drinks that comes with the special; and even when you pay for a large- it ain't large. But gosh darn it, as a NYer, sometimes a crisp hot dog and a papaya drink is what you need. I keep going back, so I can't ding it too much.

i’ve always loved this place but… over $7 for only four chicken strips??? bffr. i used to go here for the homerun special (two hotdogs and a small papaya drink for $5) but with these new prices since covid i’d much rather go to literally any of the other eateries at the ferry terminal. RIP len’s papaya 😞🙏🏽

Just bought and paid $2.75 for a chicken patty which tasted crappy. Seller/cashier would not exchange because it was 'broken'. His words. I barely ate any of it. One nibble. Never again. No customer satisfaction here and I told him I would leave a review. So here it is. Only reason they are in business is because of their prices.

Very convenient place with good quality snacks, drinks, and beer. Especially great for late nights going back to Staten Island, when you need a late night snack or that final beer. I recommend the papaya juice - I never drink it anywhere else and it's also refreshing.

The worst cappuccino I've had. The coffee was burning hot, completely ruining the coffee and it took the guy way too long to make it.

This is a necessary stop if you are taking the Staten Island Ferry. The cheapest beer cans in all five boroughs can be found at Len's. $4 for a 25oz of Bud Light!

It’s ok.

The papaya drink was so yummy! I'm not a fan of papaya, but it was a smoothie that was sweet and creamy. I would totally rec this menu item! The hot dog was rather disappointing. It was my first hot dog of the New York trip, and it wasn't the same as the dirty water hot dogs. It was rather skinny and dry as it was prob sitting on rollers. Don't get this. This particular location is located at the Staten Island Ferry terminal at the top floor.

Bro, why does your store even exist? Mediocre Hot dog + fries for $9?? You can't compete with the other stores. They all have something distinct or special to offer. You do not. Your souvenirs are outdated and overpriced. This space could be used for something much better so please do us all a favor and close down.

The name is .nice But the customer service, unprofessional.expecially.....the morning black dude that work making your coffee n serving you you donuts...he get no stars from me he need training..... ....

Not a good place. I was just accused of stealing a bottle of water and even after I presented my recepit for the water purchased just a few minutes prior from Subways on the first floor, I was still insulted and accused again of stealing. I will inform everyone of your business practices every chance I get. How disgusting to treat someone like this. RUN YOUR CAMERAS... I am Not a theif. They decided to target me, A woman, and an AA, I say this because no one else was spoken to in that manner. He continued in front of everyone that was on the line. Never will I ever purchase from this business again.

We decided to try this place as a gag after we visited their rival, Gray's Papaya. The hot dogs had ketchup in it, so for a New York hot dog that's a no. But the papaya drink was very good and also refreshing, but a little to watery. The location is tricky, but acceptable.

Len's Papaya NY Manhattan Whitehall Station 11:40pm Monday 8th June 2015 Four Stars I just missed the 11:30 Staten Island ferry so I decided to punish myself with a tube of mystery meat at Lens Papaya. I got the Home Run Special which is two hotdogs with ketchup, mustard, and kraut (Relish is extra) + a small drink for after tax price of $5.5. I got the papaya drink which like an orange Julius with its creamy texture and sweet fruit flavor but much more tropical. The dogs were fine. A good way to waste 10 minutes waiting for the ferry.

This is honestly the worst place to go to In the ferry. The service is horrible( I love good customer services but right here is not it ) the food is horrible. Please save your money and either get some thing before the ferry terminal or after. You will be a happier person if you do

Good cheap hot dog. It is located in the Ferry terminal so its a good place to catch a good cheap snack while waiting for the ferry.

When you take the Staten Island ferry as a local, free thing to do with your tourist friends, naturally you need an ice cold beer to comfort you as you travel into the foreign abyss that is Staten Island. And when you are looking for a thirst quenching Bud Light for cheaper than you'd pay in the Midwest, you come to Len's Papaya. Only discovered the actual name of this great establishment this weekend, but this is the only place I buy 25oz of piss watery Bud for less than 5 buckaroos. You don't get a better deal than that. Ever. Anywhere. For eber.

One of the better papaya-themed food kiosks/restaurants that you'll come across. I had a pretty delicious hot dog with mustard last week, while my friend decided on some more elaborate toppings, plus a drink. Prompt service, reasonable price, and pretty tasty food. Overall, worth visiting while you're waiting to take that trip to Staten Island.

I am in no way kidding when I say this is the best hot dog in new york city. It has that crispy bite one looks for in a city style dog. I like it better than the famous Gray's Papaya honestly. The staff is friendly and they always have ice cold beers for the ferry. Five stars.

I bought home-run special combo including 2 hot dogs and 1 coke. It costed 6$ for all and I was satisfied with the whole experience.

I went there recently and gotta say, pretty DAMN GOOD for a terminal dog -- any kinda' dog for that matter!! The papaya juice carries on the NY tradition of Papaya joints and on top of that they have a good breakfast menu, beers, coffees and a whole lot more. And try the $4.60 Home Run special! Great quick stop for a dog and a papaya juice on the run.

The best un-kept secret in NY...! This is the hometown food of choice for the local "in-the-know" ferry riders and I can see why. You can't get more "New Yawk" traditional than a couple of really tasty hot dogs (with mustard, ketchup and kraut) and that delicious sweet creamy papaya drink...a package deal that Len calls the "Home-Run Special"...best $5 (+change after tax) I ever spent waiting for the ferry. I also grabbed one of those yummy old-school square knishes (with mustard of course). And yeah, they have breakfast stuff (hot bagel and egg sandwiches, etc), but of course the other big draw is a nice cold (and low priced) beer...ahhhh! Nice to see a place that has a competent staff working fast to move the line along quickly too...I wish more places did. The locals love it...me too.

While I have always loved these guys for their awesome hot dogs (mustard and sauerkraut please), it's the staff who truly make this place. These guys are incredibly awesome, I can just show the amount of fingers and they know what I want. Also, tonight, for the first time in recorded history, someone lost something at the terminal and got it back. Thank you for watching out for my MAC, I will always be grateful.
