13 years later, Sapsuckers is still our favorite eaterie (and we consider it our "local" bar) in Huntington. Always perfect food and fantastic beers and drinks. They recently refurbished it, with a new granite bar top, plusher seats and a much bigger menu. These changes all get a big thumbs up! My wife and I visited last weekend for cocktails (their version of the Paper Plane is the BEST), and I had a cubano sandwich that satisfied immensely. Sapsuckers rules, period. read more

Sapsuckers is as I have stated in the past a great go to place for a nice lunch or dinner and to experience one of the largest and most eclectic beer selections in Huntington. Recently this establishment has gotten even better with an improved decor, (they have brought over tables, chairs and other items from the recently closed Red Restaurant), adding a level of sophistication and charm. They have also improved the bar area as well. The menu now is larger and offers some of our favorites, and soon to be yours, from once sister restaurants Red and Osteria da Nino. All the food is outstanding as is the friendly attentive service of the servers. Today Monica and Kelly served us lunch and suggested the fried cheddar cheese curds to accompany our beers, a terrific choice- these are an adult version of fried cheese sticks. We had mentioned that we wanted to share both a Wedge Salad and a Philly cheese steak sandwich, to our surprise both came out thoughtfully divided equally to share making the experience even more enjoyable. Whether you are looking for a quick bit at the bar or a sit down meal this is a perfect choice. read more

Food was delicious! The veggie chili nachos were quite yummy. Wings were good, spicy. Good thing I had a cold beer to cool my mouth! My shawarma bowl was so tasty! The caramel on the bread pudding - delectable! Our waitress was friendly and very attentive. They have lots of beautiful pictures of birds (sapsuckers and others) on the walls. All around great place to eat and drink! read more

Sapsuckers is our favorite restaurant in Huntington! They're never too crowded and always have great food and service. Their Cuban sandwich is always great and their Mac and cheese, for both adults and kids, is to die for. They also have a great drink and beer menu. Always extremely welcoming and family friendly. read more

Think of this as a regular bar but with way better food, great beers on tap and in cans, with all friendly staff. Great date spot if you love craft beer. They also have some wine and spirits. The food menu ranges from Italian to Eastern European to your classic American. One of my go-to places in Huntington for a snack and a pre-show beer. read more

A sapsucker is a type of bird and as a lover of birds, I appreciate the cute and often subtle theming throughout (there's a bird clock that I'm especially fond of). But I don't give out five stars for bird inspiration alone. The bar is ultra inviting and now that I've been two times, I can safely say that I am a huge fan of this place. They have a good selection of wines by the glass, beers on tap and cocktails and regular bartender, Vinny, makes a legit Aperol Spritz (shocking how many not so great ones I've had recently at other places across the country). I appreciate the healthy pour of Nero D'Avola by the glass. Plus Vinny is a great bartender, the kind who makes everyone feel welcome, from regulars to newbies. Gotta love a good neighborhood bar vibe that isn't exclusive! Note: I have not yet tried the food but hopefully someday. read more

Came in for a quick dinner before a show at the Paramount. Was early on in the evening so not too crowded yet. We loved the ambience, the drinks, and the food. Service was friendly and just the right amount of attention. We will definitely return when we are in Huntington again. read more

A local staple this place offers a quaint bar when you walk in with some dining in the back. They offer a great array of craft drinks Vinny behind the bar is very kind and entertaining there's also a very nice woman with glasses I didn't catch her name but she made an excellent french75! They offer an incredible truffled 4 Mac & cheese it's probably the best I've had to this day. read more

First time here and it was a great experience Chris the bartender and Sara the manager could not have done any more for us. Great selection of beers on tap and in bottles, and food was delicious. We had the Duck wings that were on a bed of slaw that was fantastic and I had the Beef Bourguignon that was great. Definitely give this place a try. We will be back soon. read more

Good service, great food! The food came out very quickly so it felt a little rushed but other than that a great time and great energy!

Sapsuckers is a Huntington staple. The wings are the best around hands down. Mac and cheese is one of the best ever too. The staff is always great and so nice. Love this spot and cozy atmosphere. read more

Atmosphere: There is a bar up front with a few bar tables on the side (pretty typical bar feel). In the back, you have few tables that feels pretty nice and intimate. It is small! So there may be a wait if you want a table in the back. Service: the bartenders and waiters were all very friendly and accomodating. Food: pierogies!! yum! I could go for some right now. I also had the chicken sandwich which was also pretty good. Drink: pretty large beer selection! :) read more

Seriously, their beer list is amazing - something for everyone. And don't even get me started on the chicken and waffles... best I've ever tasted, hands down. read more

Yes Bill S. - You got it right this is a place to come for fancy beers. Any local bar that scores fresh kegs of my holy grail - Maine Dinner gets a minimum 4**** review from me regardless of expense or food. $12 a pour is well worth the absolute pleasure of a freshly tapped keg that holds a nectar of the Gods. So good - I had 2. Lisa E. and I had just finished a nice 4 mile walkabout visiting my hometown. The sun broke through the clouds and we were able to take our well earned beverages curbside. People watching and sipping craft is a pleasure too seldom taken. Tap menu is fire, stay awhile and enjoy life. read more

Amazing gastropub. You will not be disappointed. Great pub food elevated to satisfy all pallets.

Decided to walk in with my boyfriend here because we wanted a quick lunch. We've been here once before but just to sit at the bar and have a few drinks. This second time we came here was for lunch. We both ordered the Sausalito Sandwich with shoestring fries and came with a pickle. The sandwich was a decent size, it had a thin grilled chicken cutlet, guacamole, chipotle aioli (which was a little too overpowering, and could've maybe been a little less intense), tomato and lettuce on toasted rye bread. The sandwich was delicious but it was very messy and needed extra napkins for it. Otherwise the waitress was very sweet, very accommodating. The whole place is small but I liked the decor which made it feel comfy. Overall this place was very good and I'd love to come back here again to try more food! read more

I've popped in here a few times now and love it each visit ! Usually just grab a quick beer n bite at the bar, love the bartenders! Big welcoming and friendly vibes in here. Love their pierogies.. such a nice little sharing staple (they come with 3), perfectly cooked, dressed with your usual onions and sour cream. Another one of my fav dishes is their chicken pot pie. It's got a great fluffy croissant laying on top of creamy chicken and veggie goodness, don't pass this one up! Also, did a split portion between my guy and I of the beef stroganoff, so good just a touch salty (not mad at it though!).... This place really really has a good menu of "homey" and comforting foods.. great selection of beers, and good prices. Will be back! Ooo they usually have a specials menu for the day, not sure how often they change it but they always have good shit on it! Chili pierogies? This place is on to something. read more

I go to Huntington frequently. Sometimes alone, sometimes with someone or a couple of someones. Huntington has many options. I mean, you know that already. And that's one of the first-worldliest of the first world problems: too much choice. The cavemen probably had a single fire they could crowd around. And their menu choices were likely limited to "catch of the day." But now, even though there are plenty of cavemen around us -- just look at the political climate -- we've got choices of not just individual things, but even GENRES of things. It can make your head spin. My head is spinning right now, but for a number of reasons for which I may need to call a specialist. But you arrive in Huntington and you park your car or maybe you live within walking distance from the village in which case I HATE YOU WITH ALL THE SEEPING JEALOUSY and anyway you wonder where the hell to go for a drink and something to eat. Some places have good grub but terrible beer options, while there are also bars that serve food fit for someone drinking several beers. Sapsuckers had become my go-to spot in town. And by that I mean I GO TO it almost every time I'm in town. I've sat at the bar, at the bar tables, at the regular tables, outside in the back, and even outside in front of the establishment, where I stare at people and sometimes they stare back. I'm a bit of a beer snob, so I appreciate a beer menu that doesn't list Stella Artois as an import craft selection. The rotation usually allows me to try something new, or something familiar that I normally wouldn't find on tap -- like, say, Gulden Draak -- and I can play the big fancy beer snob, sipping from a tulip glass. The menu is extensive. But again, here we go with all the choices. Fortunately, I've found a couple of things I like -- really like -- so I don't stray too far from them, and the routine brings me comfort. The shawrama is top-notch and comes with fries that are so good but which I shouldn't be eating. "Oh, I'll just have one," I'll say to no one, or everyone at the bar. And then I've eaten them all. AND THEN I HAVE EATEN THEM ALL But I've been trying to make better choices lately, so I've more recently been opting for the Greek salad with grilled chicken. It sounds boring (unless you're Greek or maybe from Cyprus), but sometimes (not always) you can appreciate something simple that's made well, and that's this salad. It almost makes me forget that I chose a salad over a dish called the GORDOMAKER. I rewarded myself for the salad choice with a dessert. The flourless chocolate cake was a little too dry, and didn't pair well with what I believed what a vanilla gelato or nondairy ice cream. The only other drawback is that the joint gets really crowded, and people sitting at the bar tend to grow roots that adhere them to their stools. But the staff is great. The main bartender resembles a cross between the musician Jack Johnson and the actor Diedrich Bader, in the best way possible. And the hosts and waitstaff are nothing AND I MEAN NOTHING but friendly and attentive. So yeah, there are many places you can go in Huntington, but this is usually my first choice. Which means there are plenty of other Huntington places you can go, so if you know I'm coming to town (send me your phone number so I can text you) STAY THE HELL OUT SO I CAN GET A SEAT AT THE BAR OKAY THANK YOU FOUR STARS read more

I don't know how I missed reviewing this one. Have been going for quite some time and it is no wonder why they've been such a long standing staple in Huntington. We went today and had the Cuban with fries and two nice beer selections called Foam and Suds. Service has and continues to be great, as is their beer selection. It's got a close and cozy vibe- good amount of seating at the bar and in the back. Nice spot for an afternoon beer and a bite for sure! read more

I absolutely love Sapsuckers. This is one of my favorite establishments in Long Island. Vinny (the bartender) is one of the nicest people who always greets you with a smile on his face. I have been here probably 50 times and the food/service is always consistently great. Saps has incredible wings, nachos, and burgers (the chief burger is my favorite burger ever), and beers. I highly recommend Sapsuckers for anyone who is looking for great food and drinks. read more

Cute gastropub on the main strip of town. They have a great beer list and specials. Ordered the Maine "Another One" IPA and the lamb gyro with fries. Good portion to split for a snack. The burgers looked enticing too. Nice space to sit at the bar up front or at a table toward the back. Great storefront with window to the street and sidewalk - perfect for watching a beautiful day outside. read more

Typical bar, food was okay. Giving three stars for the service. Ambiance is dark and good place for pregame maybe?

I thoroughly enjoyed my little salad but I have to say I was a little put off by the price tag. $10 for an appetizer sized salad, which I wanted and $8 for the 4 shrimp I ordered. It was cooked nicely and the salad was tasty. My husband had the burger and he thought it was excellent. I stole some fries. They are exactly how I like them. Super skinny and crunch, almost like matchsticks. Nice vibe and great service. Other than the big price tag on the salad, it was a perfect experience. I probably should have said something but I didn't. Unless they give four shrimp on the entree size, they should adjust the price to add on the protein for an app size, IMHO. I might order differently next time. I would still recommend. read more

I'm a fan of this place but after tonight I think I'm permanently turned off. All I wanted was a steak sandwich and I'm not picky about it either! I decided to order their Philly cheesesteak some mixed reviews on it but again I'm not picky. Man this sandwich was just bad. It had to be an off night in the kitchen this Monday night. The bread was really great but the cheese American cheese one of my faves was just bad! And The steak just so flavorless even my fave caramelized onions couldn't help it! It kills me to write this review but the sandwich was just that bad! I was really hungry and ate as much as I could tolerate lol! read more

All the food was amazing. I went in my birthday and ended up getting the French onion soup, deviled eggs and Birthday Sandwich since it was my birthday. I loved that the deviled eggs weren't typical. The yolk that's usually inside was spread underneath the eggs so you could eat it with a spoon or scoop into the egg yourself. The French onion soup was middle of the road but the birthday sandwich was great. I really loved the bacon jam or whatever was on it. The service was great. Would definitely come back and try again. read more

Came here one time in the summer for their blueberry beer and was VERY impressed. It tasted amazing and I could see why my friend was raving about it. We also got some snacks (I can't remember what exactly) but they were really good as well. I went again last week on my birthday for shots but saw their pumpkin beer ale drink and had to order that. It was beautifully served and absolutely delicious! We also got a flourless cake - because of my birthday - and it was hot, warm and gooey, the way all cakes should be! read more

Sapsuckers - Pumpkin beer. So good. So perfectly rimmed as well. - American Near Me - Huntington, New York

I went to Sapsuckers last Wednesday with a friend for lunch. The food was super yummy. We shared the homemade Pierogies. I had their version of a Beef Stroganoff, and she had a Grilled Chicken Caesar Salad. The Pierogies were amazing!! Next time I go I'm not sharing them. The Stroganoff was delicious with fresh ingredients. My friend said her salad was really good. The service was a little slow considering the place was not full. Also, the place was very loud. It was hard to hear/talk. I love the pub ambiance though. I will definitely be back for more! read more

If you want a little hidden jem in town this is your place! Very cool, upbeat, small town bar that has some amazing food. Went here for lunch the other day and had a nice time. We were sat immediately at a table and had some pretty good service. For my lunch i got the lieutenant dan po boy sandwich which was amazing. It was topped with Cajun style frys and sauce...omgggg..... My wife got the alabama sloppy hammer which was also very good. It was served with a side of their red wine beef gravy which was honestly some of the best beef gravy ive ever had. My only complaint is small but its that they told us they had homemade fresh lemonade...it was 100% from the packet. Place is a little small so id guess it gets packed on the weekends and for dinner. Id 100% recommend coming here if your in the area. Bar also looked very cool and the bar maid was very friendly. read more

After years and years of coming here just to drink, I finally had a chance to try their food and it was delicious. Stopped in on Labor Day around 3 ish and scanned the cocktail menu for a healthy version of a drink, which you can never find and what do you know, Sapsuckers had one. I ordered a drink with titos vodka, soda water and muddled lemon and mint. Sure, this sounds like a doctored up vodka soda, which is exactly what it is but I don't want to be one of those people who asks for a vodka soda with muddled this and that so it's nice to have a drink like that, give it a name and be able to order it. $11 is for sure steep for that, but it takes a minute to make so I was cool with it. The bartenders as always are friendly and so knowledgable about all of their products. The girl who was helping us behind the bar knew everything there was to know about every beer, very impressive. We shared the pulled chicken tacos, which were served on corn tortillas with feta, black bean puree and white rice and they were so flavorful and delicious. Their menu really looked awesome and I'm looking forward to coming back and trying more things. They are able to tailor a lot of their menu items to be gluten free and many options on the menu already are. read more

Food is always good here! Appetizers are perfect portion. Service is outstanding and the ambience is perfect. The drinks are also amazing.

The beer list is amazing, the service is always fantastic... The last time we were there the bartender was very cordial and fun to speak to, and made excellent recommendations. The food has been good every single visit and they have a very nice selection of specials if you don't want to order from the main menu. Their macaroni and cheese is perhaps the best that I've ever had. The ambience as great as long as they are not a ton of people watching a sporting event on the televisions. read more

Sap-suck-er an American woodpecker that pecks rows of small holes in trees and visits them for sap and insects. My review is only based on my drink experience. Came here on a Sunday after brunch nearby. No drink specials but the gentleman next to me was having a beer in a wide sniffer glass and I knew I wanted what he was drinking. It was a Belgium Strong Ale called For the Thrown. Not a beer drinker per se but it was my kind of beer. Light with a high abv lol. I'd come back for food as this is one of Nino's restaurants and update my review. read more

Everything I ever ate at Sapsuckers has been great. It's a gastropub. And a good one at that. So that means it has a fantastic beer selection and all their food is consistently enjoyable. I've tried their Shawarma, burgers, salad, Beef Stroganoff and more. Service is great, it's a dimly lot, but warm environment and a go to for a local like me. read more

Cute, small cozy place right off of Main Street (right next to Starbucks) where you walk in and the bar is right on the left, and in the back are additional seating with booths, tables and chairs. We had ordered the stuffed jalapeños and the organic wings. The stuffed jalapeños were pretty good, although they weren't that spicy at all. They were jalapeños cut into halves, with cheese inside each of them. The wings were pretty good too. It didn't taste any different than a regular chicken wing, and it had also come with a few celery sticks. Overall a good experience. read more

Loved this place for the beers more than the food. PROS: Interesting craft beers on the menu. You've bound to find something you like. I tried 4 unique ones on my visit. Fruity ales to dark chocolate stouts. Service was superb. CONS: The food was hit or miss. The pretzel app came with hot mustard and was worthy of 5 stars. The mac and cheese or the wedge salad were lackluster. Entrees. Chicken and waffles were solid. Codfish tacos were light on flavor and contained mushy fish, not crunchy or flaky, and it was overpowered by the mayo based sauce. I would order again. Burgers were solid though. OVERALL: A 5 star spot for beers. But a 3.5 star spot for food. There are many food places in this center area of Huntington. I look forward to trying other ones. This place was good enough, but for the price I expected better food. read more
