The seats are wooden and some found them uncomfortable. The food was good. The striped bass was really tasty. The spinach was delicious with a hint of garlic.

Some in our group were painfully hungry by the time entrees arrived.

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

Tons of teas to pick from & some sweets as well. The young man working there was friendly. We placed our order & found a table. They do request you remove your shoes, hey I do it at home so no problem for me. I enjoyed a chai tea with rose & cardamom. It was very good, had a kind of floral light hot chocolate taste. I'm sure it's fun at night, I believe you can get teas for a group. If you want to try something different I suggest you try them!

The Secret Garden Tea Shoppe is a venue I frequent at least once every season, which I highly…read morerecommend all to do. The owner decorates beautifully and meaningfully for each and every occasion. Whether it's fall, spring, summer, Valentine's Day, Holiday Season, or even once I was there the day of a royal wedding, you can guarantee that every little detail will be attended to. Located in the heart of Port Jefferson, a short walk from the large municipal lot and ferry, this tea shop is where you want to go. They offer full tea service, a royal tea (soup and sparkling cider added), individual ala carte sandwiches, and an array of desserts. I always get the tea service, which comes with a bottomless pot of tea. They have so many teas to choose from, including decaf and herbal versions. During the holidays, they update their tea list to reflect more seasonal teas. Service is always impeccable, the food is always fresh, and there is a consistency to this place that rivals many. I've had tea service at "those" expensive hotels in NYC, and I must say, Secret Garden tops it for me.

I did try a few drinks and found most of them a bit on the sweet side for my taste, but the UBE latte totally met my needs. Smooth, flavorful, and not super sweet. I would go back just for that. I also felt the pricing was quite fair. Id probably opt to come her over Starbucks.

I love finding new favorites so close to home! After a few tastings at LI Salted Spirits…read moredistillery, we took a quick walk into town for dinner at Cafe Joelle and wow, the atmosphere alone caught me off guard. Such a gorgeous, hidden gem vibe with plenty of seating whether you want the bar or a table. The food was genuinely unforgettable, we were still talking about it days later. If you love bold flavor with a little heat, this is your spot. We got the Bruschetta (grilled herb crostini, mozzarella, plum tomato compote), P.E.I. Mussels (chorizo, cherry pepper, riesling white wine), Wasabi Calamari (sesame crusted, spicy soy ginger sauce, wasabi aioli), Shrimp Mezze Rigate (pesto, sun-dried tomato, asparagus, breadcrumb, ricotta salata), and Cherry Pepper Pork (pounded, breaded, pan-fried, lemon cherry pepper sauce, melted parmesan, green beans, roasted potato), every dish was packed with flavor. Don't sleep on dessert either: a chocolate shell you crack open to reveal mousse inside, we were fighting to get the last bites! Bonus: they carry LI Salted Spirits cans and cocktails right at the bar, so you can keep the tasting going. Plenty of parking, super friendly staff, and a great spot for everyone. Highly recommend, ten out of ten!

I was served by Queen who was an absolute sweetheart and made sure my order was made to perfection (see heart drink for reference). The other diners also looked very happy and seemed to be enjoying the beautiful decor as much as I did(I tried not to photograph them). It honestly felt like I was transported to Brooklyn. And the sandwich and Bom drink I got were enough to still have me thinking about it as I'm writing this post. I went during the day but cannot wait to go later to see how this place is in the evening. 11/10 for Roto!!

I ordered the banana bread latte, but unfortunately it didn't taste like banana at all and had no sweetness. My partner got the vanilla pistachio latte, and neither of us really tasted the flavors in our drinks. Both drinks basically tasted like iced coffee. 3 stars because service was fast. The atmosphere is nice, but based on the coffee, I probably wouldn't come back.

Hands down the best açaí bowl I've had...ever. My husband and I were recently in town visiting…read morefamily and our last few days were centered around how to ensure we made a visit to SoBol Patchogue. Our family was raving about their açaí bowls, so we had to check them out. Verdict? The hype was definitely real. I went with a classic size açaí bowl. Everything tasted super fresh and the standard toppings/mix ins that come with the bowl complemented the açaí purée perfectly. The granola was the show stopper for me. So amazing when mixed in with everything else in the bowl. I think it's also made in house. The quantity of the classic size is filling. I actually ate mine over the course of two servings. Service was friendly and efficient. We had a large order and the girl ringing us up was extremely patient as we sorted through everyone's orders. Our bowls were also made in a reasonable amount of time. Definitely crafted with care! The entrance is not located on the main street, but is easily accessible from the parking lot adjacent to the building. There is plenty of parking. SoBol Patchogue is located in a tiny space, but they deliver an amazing açaí bowl in a huge way. If you're an açaí lover, do yourself a favor and stop by this location! You can thank me later.

I had the peanut butter mousse cake for lunch and the caramel macchiatto. When I first sipped it I felt like the caramel had a slightly tingy flavor but it went away after the first sip and I still felt like the drink was good. The peanut butter mousse cake was so good, it had a lot of peanut butter flavor which I love. I had a good experience here the staff was friendly and helpful and it was also a nice weather day so I was able to sit in their outdoor seating and hang out and enjoy the weather. I would recommend CoHo!

So first they say they're "out of cold foam" Really? So you have four featured drinks that you don't have ingredients for on a Sunday morning? No. The girl working the counter was trying to pack it up to leave. You don't "run out of cold foam" you're a coffee shop- make it. I would have happily waited for it, no issue. We were asked if we were staying which we said yes, my drink arrived in a flimsy plastic cup and my partner had the porcelain cup... umm ok?To top it all off there was some extremely loud irritating construction happening right after we sat down- I get things happen but really? How about waiting until service has slowed? Idk- the whole experience was just awful and put us both in a terrible mood.
