About Knish Kueen

Knish Kueen

Cheif Knish Officer

Knish Kueen is a modern love letter to the classic New York knish. Every knish is handmade in small batches right here in NYC, turning nostalgic street food into a standout moment for weddings and celebrations. Our Knish Cart Experience is a fully styled hot food station with an unlimited, build-your-own toppings bar for our baked, round potato knishes. Guests can go classic deli with mustard or try modern favorites like hot honey, chili oil, and everything bagel seasoning, and couples can even create their own signature topping combo, just like a signature cocktail. The result is interactive, photogenic comfort food with personality that guests remember.

The Knish Cart is the perfect addition to cocktail hour, a late-night snack, or anything in between. Our knishes are 100% vegan and nut-free, so nearly all your guests can dig in. Pricing starts at $36 per guest (25-guest minimum) for two hours of unlimited, nonstop knish service, with travel, add-ons, and extra hours priced separately. We can serve up to 300 guests.

    Cannot recommend the knish cart enough!

    I booked Shelby and her knish cart for our reception and I am already planning to book her again for my future children’s bar mitzvahs. I am not pregnant. I am not even close. We are at least 13 years out. That is how serious I am. The knish cart was iconic. Truly no notes. Our guests still bring it up months later. Not the band. Not the flowers. The knishes!

    NYC food for an Authentic NYC Wedding Weekend.

    We had the Kniche Knish Cart at our welcome dinner cocktail hour for all of our out of town guests, and it set the tone for the entire weekend in the best way possible.People had just arrived from far and wide, we were a tired and hungry bunch and the knish cart delivered! My husband and I met in NYC, and live in NYC so New York culture was a central theme of the wedding so this was really a perfect fit. Multiple people told us it was the most thoughtful welcome dinner food they had ever seen. It made our wedding weekend feel intentional, warm, and very us.

    Midnight Snack Surprise Knishes!

    We booked Kniche as a midnight snack and it was such a fun surprise for our guests. Shelby was enthusiastic, polished, and so friendly. She remembered my name, congratulated us again, and made everyone feel taken care of. The toppings bar was next level, my favorite was classic yellow mustard with pickles, YUM. It shifted the whole energy of the night. People who were about to leave stayed for another hour. Groups formed around the cart. My dad still talks about it. Its not just food, its an experience. Shelby brought so much heart, professionalism, and personality to our wedding, and it is one of the most memorable parts of the entire day!

    Cannot Recommend The Knish Cart Enough!

    Hiring Shelby and the Kniche knish cart for our cocktail hour was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the very first email she was organized, responsive, and excited about our vision. On the day of the wedding she arrived early, set up quickly, and was such a warm, fun presence. The cart itself was adorable and instantly drew a crowd. We had multiple different food stations and the knish cart was by far the most popular because people had never seen anything like it! Guests loved that they could customize their knishes. My husband was obsessed with the everything bagel seasoning and hot honey combo. We had multiple guests tell us it was the best cocktail hour food they had ever had. It totally transformed the atmosphere. Instead of people awkwardly standing around, everyone was chatting in line, comparing toppings, and taking photos. Shelby is a true professional and also just a joy to be around. Cannot recommend her enough!
