Thanks for your support! Working on Instant Noodle Factory for these past 2 years has been an incredible journey filled with so many unexpected twists and turns. We are so happy that we got to share our love of instant noodles with New York City, and everyone who traveled to visit our small shops!
closing schedule:
Thursday, February 27th: Last Day Open until 9pm at LIC
March 1st-March 6th: Remaining Inventory Sale at East Village! More details to be announced
This experience would not have been possible without the hard work of our incredible staff at both locations. Special shoutouts to Aly and Val at LIC for being with us since the beginning - thank you for bringing the positive vibes and energy to LIC, we couldn't have done this without you!
