It's bright and welcoming inside with a good amount of tables. I do wish there were more outlets as I only saw one, which was being occupied by another patron. I ordered a maple spice latte and I created my own egg sandwich. I added avocado and prosciutto. It was very good! At first I was mad at myself for forgetting hot sauce, but it didn't need it. Great flavor in every bite. And very filling! My latte was just okay. I didn't get much of a maple spice flavor, but it was still tasty. Customer service was excellent. They don't just call out or scream your name like Starbucks, they say your name and then hand it to you. They remember your face when you order. It's very personal this way. I had a great experience and I will definitely be working from this spot again!

Sunflower Cafe and Bakery is truly one of my favorite (and most memorable) dining experiences over…read morethe last 2.5 years!! I cannot rave enough about this establishment ...The food is amazing, always so fresh and made-to-order! The sourdough bread is so incredibly crusty and delicious, coming from my favorite Portuguese place in Farmingville. My husband said the French onion soup was the best he's ever had....Not to overlook the ambience, which is so welcoming and relaxing. This truly adds a nice touch to the overall dining experience. Stace and her daughter Katherine add so much love and life to this beautiful restaurant. We celebrated my sister's milestone birthday there last September in a cozy private room upstairs. It was beyond spectacular from beginning to end. We continue to return to Sunflower Cafe and Bakery quite often, and always have such a pleasant and warm experience! They also offer a wonderful weekend brunch menu on Sunday's with truly creative and delicious entrées. I believe they are approaching their 3 year anniversary in November, and it's not surprising that they are able to thrive and grow in such a tough economic environment. Run, don't walk to this INCREDIBLE restaurant. It's always such an amazing time for us both. Desserts are also so scrumptious as well, with the option to take home treats from the small bakery area if desired! Thanks to the entire staff for always treating us like family...Cannot wait to return very soon.

They import wine from France. They bake their own goods, and everything is just right. I can't wait to go back!

The staff were friendly and helpful, even during the morning rush! For you book lovers, it's the perfect spot to grab a drink while taking a stroll through the library, or take a seat outside! If you're a fan of cold brew or anything coconut flavored, you have to try the shaken coconut cream cold brew. You may find your new favorite summer drink, because I sure did. This coffee had the perfect amount of coconut flavor. The foam on top wasn't thick like a Starbucks foam. It was light and airy, which I think has much more flavor! The coconut and coffee flavor was a perfect balance. I honestly don't know how they would be able to make this taste any better. My niece and nephew got the birthday cake cake pops, which I had to take a bite of. Definitely too sweet for me, but if you have a sweet tooth - you'd love it. This is definitely a spot to try if you have never been! I'd love to go back when I visit in the fall. I'm sure they have great pumpkin flavors.

It is comparable in all ways price wise and quality is overall better.

I don't normally feel compelled to write a negative review, but I was genuinely disturbed by an…read moreinteraction I had here with one of the employees behind the counter. While I was looking over the deli options with my CERTIFIED service dog, the employee abruptly and very loudly asked - within earshot of other customers - what service my dog provides. While businesses are legally allowed to ask limited questions, I answered immediately and appropriately. For context, my service dog is fully trained, certified, and had just flown on a plane with me. He's also 105 lbs, so he's a big boy. Despite this, the employee continued to question me, spoke to me in a condescending manner, and went as far as saying she herself has a service dog for her "actual" disability - clearly implying that I was lying or exaggerating. This was humiliating, dismissive, and completely inappropriate. I do not need to disclose my disability to anyone, nor should I be interrogated after already complying with the law. I was so taken aback that I decided to leave immediately. Neither my dog nor I felt welcome, and I was uncomfortable continuing the interaction. We were former customers, but after this experience, I can't bring myself to return. No one should be treated this way - ESPECIALLY over something that is legally protected and deeply personal.

There is a QR code at the tables and they prefer you to order at your table, however we had questions and some items were not on the QR menu so we had to go to cashier and ask questions. There is lots of seating on the floor on cushions and mattresses, but there are also several chairs. When you enter you have to take your shoes off, which is not an issue, just wish they had a bench you could sit on to take off your shoes and put your shoes on afterwards, as that was difficult for me , as I didn't have slip ons. That's my only negative. Food was delicious . I tried a new beverage and the pistachio cake- both delish! It is located in a strip mall, so lots of parking. Prices reasonable

We called to see if we needed a reservation, but no one answered, and the mailbox was full. So we drove over. There was a sign outside saying, "We're open!" On the back of that sign, it said "Now serving dinner Friday and Saturday 6-9 pm." The parking lot was EMPTY. On the door was a sign saying, "Sorry, we're closed." No Friday or Saturday night dinner hours were noted. I can't comment on the food or ambience, because we didn't get to experience either of these. I'm sure that everything would have been simply lovely, had they actually been open. We saw the menu, and were really looking forward to dinner. Our disappointment was vast. I don't know if we'll trust them to be open for dinner and return. They're usually only open for breakfast and lunch. I thought that I also had screenshots of Google/Yelp showing them as open for dinner, and the back of the sign. Can't find them.

But we've visited Roto a few times for dinner, and they truly have the best dinner options in town. The dinner menu rotates, so it feels like you're going to a different restaurant every time, but the options never disappoint. This time it was a fixed menu, and when I tell you every serving was perfect, no detail was overlooked. The caviar play on sour cream and onion was amazing! The short rib was tender, melt in your mouth good. Even the little gem salad had the most amazing flavors, perfectly balanced! My favorite was the chocolate cake, delicate and not overly sweet. I'm not a sweets girl, and I ate the leftovers the next day, did not share! The service is so attentive. We visited once for dinner, and the second time the server already remembered our favorite wine. The ambiance is absolutely perfect for a date night. I will continue to visit. Bonus, they also have amazing lunch and breakfast options during the day!

I grabbed my drink here on a recent visit home and immediately wished they were way more west on the island. I swear I'd go every time I'm in town! Hampton Coffee Company is one of those local favorites with spots sprinkled across the East End, from Hampton Bays and Water Mill to Westhampton Beach and Center Moriches, and every location feels cozy and welcoming. They roast their own small-batch coffee and have a huge range of drink options beyond just your basic cup of joe. You've got your hot espresso bar classics, iced espresso drinks, flavored lattes, cold brews and shaken drinks, refreshers, smoothies, teas, and even seasonal features like holiday specials. I ordered the holiday cookie latte iced, and it was so fun for the season! It was sweet, cozy, and totally delicious with that festive vibe you want this time of year. There's a whole holiday lineup at many locations if you're feeling festive. On top of drinks, they have bakery items, bagels, breakfast sandwiches, paninis, wraps, and more if you're hungry. It's the kind of place where you could stop for a quick caffeine fix or hang out with a friend and grab breakfast or lunch too. Whether you're cruising out east or just need a local coffee stop with personality, Hampton Coffee Company hits the spot. Friendly staff, fun seasonal drinks, and a really inviting vibe. Just please bring a location closer to the west end of Long Island so I can make this my daily coffee run when I visit!!
