In the criminal justice system, the people are represented by two separate yet equally important groups: the police, who investigate crime, and the hungry New Yorkers, who investigate limited-edition sandwiches. These are their stories.<\/p>\n

The Law & Order \u201cDun Dun Diner\u201d is returning to Rockefeller Center<\/a> this fall, taking over Bill\u2019s Bar & Burger for two days of themed food, photo ops and merchandise. The pop-up will run Friday, October 9, and Saturday, October 10, from 11 am to 9 pm.<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s lineup includes an impressive list of culinary guests: Ess-a-Bagel<\/a>, Katz\u2019s Delicatessen<\/a>, Magnolia Bakery and Serendipity3<\/a> will each contribute exclusive menu items, bringing bagels, deli staples and over-the-top desserts into the Law & Order universe. NBC has yet to reveal the full menu, so the pastrami’s fate remains under investigation.<\/p>\n

Fans will have two ways to visit. A $30 Booth Service Dining reservation includes one featured dish, dessert, branded merchandise and interactive elements inspired by the franchise. Free Grab & Go reservations will also be available, offering access to merchandise giveaways and a themed photo opportunity. (Unlike the timed dining experience, Grab & Go tickets allow entry at any time on the selected date.)<\/p>\n

Both paid and free reservations will become available Friday, September 18, at noon ET through NBC\u2019s Dun Dun Diner website<\/a>. Tickets are first come, first served, so anyone eager to interrogate a bagel should act quickly.<\/p>\n

Select dishes from the collaboration will also appear at participating partner restaurants on October 12 and 13, though NBC has not yet announced which items will travel beyond the pop-up.<\/p>\n

The diner\u2019s return coincides with the new seasons of Law & Order and Law & Order: SVU, premiering Thursday, October 8, on NBC and streaming the following day on Peacock. It also arrives during NBC\u2019s centennial year.<\/p>\n

Last year\u2019s Dun Dun Diner also popped up at Rockefeller Center<\/a>, but the 2026 edition has a new home, fresh interactive experiences and some serious local culinary backup. Given the franchise\u2019s deep ties to the city, a New York diner feels like a natural setting, though we hope nobody winds up being questioned beneath its fluorescent lights.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"In the criminal justice system, the people are represented by two separate yet equally important groups: the police,…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":349679,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[2590,9,11,10,2591,821],"class_list":["post-349678","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-new-york","tag-categories-restaurants","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-headlines","tag-new-york-news","tag-news-eating","tag-restaurants"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/349678","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=349678"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/349678\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/349679"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=349678"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=349678"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=349678"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
