What Is Kaufman Astoria Studios?
Kaufman Astoria Studios is a historic film and television production campus at 34-12 36th Street in Astoria. It operates on the same site that has hosted filmmaking since 1920, and its current slate includes late-night television, streaming series, and major feature films. The Museum of the Moving Image sits on the same block.
Kaufman Astoria Studios has produced work across a century of American film history, from early Paramount silent pictures through the modern streaming era. The campus covers several city blocks around 36th Street and 35th Avenue, with soundstages, a backlot, office space, and a dedicated film school annex. Frontline Queens residents work on its productions, and the neighborhood around the studio has become a dense mix of film workers, service staff, and long-time Astoria locals. Transit is handled by the M/R train at Steinway Street and the N/W train at 36th Avenue and Broadway.
How to Get There From Terp Bros Astoria
Terp Bros NYC Astoria sits roughly 8 blocks north of Kaufman Astoria Studios. By car, the trip runs about 5 minutes down 21st Street or Steinway Street. On foot, the walk takes 10 to 12 minutes south to 35th Avenue and 36th Street. The M/R train at Steinway is the closest subway.
From our Ditmars shop, the most direct walk is south on 35th Street or 36th Street to 35th Avenue, which places you at the studio's main gate. Drivers can take 21st Street south or Steinway Street straight to the studio entrance, with metered and side-street parking available. Transit riders can take the N/W to 36th Avenue or the M/R to Steinway, both of which drop you within a short walk of the campus. Kaufman area parking is tight during weekday production days, so pickup at our shop and a quick walk over often beats circling the block.
What to Order Before Kaufman Astoria Studios
Pre-order ahead of your visit to Kaufman Astoria Studios on our menu and choose pickup.

The Astoria store also carries Carmelo Anthony's Stay Melo brand for shoppers who want a recognized North Queens pick.

Is it legal to consume at Kaufman Astoria Studios? Cannabis consumption rules vary by venue. Most public-park and landmark policies mirror the NYC Smoke-Free Air Act, which restricts smoking on property. Private studios also set their own set-access rules. See Where You Can Smoke.
Can I bring my purchase inside Kaufman Astoria Studios? Sealed, unopened packages generally fall under normal possession rules (up to 3 ounces of flower or 24 grams of concentrate). Studio security can apply venue-specific bag checks at gates.
Does Terp Bros sponsor or partner with Kaufman Astoria Studios? No. Terp Bros NYC is an independent CAURD-licensed dispensary operating under NY OCM License OCM-CAURD-23-000020 (Astoria) / OCM-CAURD-25-000294 (Ozone Park).

What First-Time Queens Shoppers Should Know About the Kaufman Astoria Studios Route
First-time Kaufman-area visitors are usually in Astoria for a specific production day, a Museum of the Moving Image visit, or a friend's job on a shoot. A few practical notes, plus the reminder that every product at Terp Bros is lab-tested under NY OCM standards, will keep the day moving.
Bring valid government-issued ID showing 21 or older; the check happens at our Ditmars door. Order on the menu before you head south so your pickup is ready when you arrive at the shop. The studio campus is private property; on-site consumption is not allowed, and security may run bag checks at production gates. Factory-sealed packaging should stay sealed while you are on campus. If you are heading to the Museum of the Moving Image as part of the same trip, treat it like any cultural venue; no on-site use, sealed packaging only. Finally, plan the rest of your neighborhood time; Astoria's 35th Avenue corridor is a dense mix of diners, coffee shops, and small theaters, and many shoppers pair a studio visit with dinner nearby.
How the Kaufman Astoria Studios Route Compares Across Queens Neighborhoods
Kaufman Astoria Studios is the most industry-specific landmark Terp Bros serves. Compared with Astoria Park or MoMA PS1, which draw neighborhood residents on weekends, Kaufman pulls a weekday workforce of crew members, writers, actors, and production staff.
Compared with Citi Field or Flushing Meadows-Corona Park, where the timing is set by a game or an event, Kaufman's rhythm is set by call times and wrap schedules. Compared with Gantry Plaza, which is a quiet waterfront walk, Kaufman is all business during the week and quiet on weekends. Compared with Aqueduct or Belmont, which are vehicle-heavy trips, Kaufman is a walkable landmark within our Astoria shop's core neighborhood. Compared with LaGuardia or JFK, which add federal airport rules, Kaufman has studio security policies but falls under normal NYC landmark etiquette. Practical takeaway: if you live or work anywhere in the Astoria-Steinway-Sunnyside triangle, Terp Bros Astoria is your default walking-distance dispensary and the natural stop before a studio-adjacent day.
What Budtenders Hear Most About the Kaufman Route to Terp Bros
Astoria budtenders field a familiar set of Kaufman-area questions: what works for a long crew day, whether sealed product can travel onto a production gate, and whether our shop is really the closest licensed option for 35th Avenue residents. The answers stay consistent.
On product choice for long production schedules, they steer shoppers toward 2.5 mg to 5 mg edibles, low-dose THC beverages, and sealed pre-rolls, because the combination fits wrap-of-day unwinding without risking anyone's next call time. On venue rules, the answer is consistent: sealed packaging under the 3-ounce flower and 24-gram concentrate personal-possession ceiling travels with you, studio security applies its own bag-check policy at the gate, and on-set use is not permitted. On proximity, Terp Bros NYC Astoria is the closest CAURD-licensed shop to Kaufman, operating under NY OCM License OCM-CAURD-23-000020 (Astoria) / OCM-CAURD-25-000294 (Ozone Park).
