A playful space with board games and activities to enjoy alongside your meal. The menu options are robust enough for anyone to find something they will enjoy and the cocktails are inventive and as playful as the games. We got a chipotle chicken chop salad and the chicken parm burger - enjoyed both but nothing special. The animal fries however, were magical and generously portioned. I will be coming back to try some other menu items and games! read more

This has been maybe our 7th time visiting Standard Rec. Every time my fiancée and I love the food and the environment. The games and the music really make this restaurant stand out. It is 1 of our favorite places to visit. Last night, Luke was our server and made it a truly special meal. His attention to detail and elevated service was a treat. We don't normally see this level of service when casually dining and Luke was able to set a high bar. Thank you very much read more

Went on a Saturday from 4-7. It was packed when I arrived. Chill vibe. Very limited food items for myself as a celiac so I stuck with getting a drink. Lots of fried food options. Friends had nachos, wings, fries, chicken poppers. It is a family friendly place so lots of kids running around. Bay was packed so patience needed when ordering a drink. Lots of games you can play. read more

When we first stepped in, we were greeted by skee-ball! We also saw old school as well as new board games and card games that were up for grabs. Our inner kids awakened, we were excited for our meal and weren't disappointed! Highlights were: General Tso's Cauliflower-- (crispy and so flavorful!) Spicy Chicken Sandwich, Tuna Tacos. The cocktails Rollergirl and Captain Fantastic were also dangerously amazing (we had seconds) For dessert, the churros didn't disappoint! They were fresh and had the perfect amount of chocolate and caramel. The games only cost a quarter, but the change machine wasn't working. The bartender gave us change instead. The inside vibe is really chic and not too loud. It was perfect for our Sunday brunch. I just wish there was a location closer to Nassau! read more

Great service!! Delicious food!! Fun atmosphere arcade games and table side board games. read more

I went there last night and decided to have a few drinks now I haven't been to this place in a few months last time I had an issue as well but this time I go in and order to find out they don't take Apple Pay that's absolutely absurd because nowhere on the website says that matter of fact it does say "contactless payment" server was very rude i will be telling everyone not to go there read more

Awesome!! Love the cool ranch cheesy gordita crunch and the cheesy fiesta tacos! Our bartender Chrissy was very accommodating and made a killer old fashioned! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! read more

I've been meaning to check this place out for a while and it definitely didn't disappoint! Huge, open space with beautiful, modern decor. Menu options are nice and lots of apps to choose from if you're going with a bunch of people and want to share! Games are free on Tuesday which was a nice surprise! There's a really fun and unique taco Tuesday menu as well. Will definitely be back! read more

One of my most favorite places in Patchogue. The most eclectic and cool setting, decor and vibes. The food is great. My favorite are veggie tacos and fish tacos - very fresh and just a perfect blend of everything. Favorite appetizer - the hummus bowl which in itself is like a meal too, so I share it with my daughter. And of course - the games galore (a bonus - free arcade games until 9pm on Tuesdays I think). A laidback, cool place. I highly recommend. read more

This place has by far, The Best Bavarian Pretzel I've ever ordered at any restaurant! It tasted so nice and fresh. The spinach and artichoke dip with the mustard is a must to accompany the pretzel! Ordered their veggie tacos as well. Pretty good too. Didn't get to try their drinks but will definitely try on the next time around. The staff was nice and welcoming. Restroom was clean . Thought the blockbuster case with receipt inside was cool. read more

Standard Rec - The pretzel with the spinach artichoke dip , mustard delicious!!! Pretzel tasted fresh, soft and toasty!!!

Today I came in after walking around Patchogue asking businesses for small donation gift certificates for a special event for the Cradle of Aviation and they opened up at 3:00pm. I didn't asked for any gift certificates and wanted to just be a customer. I asked for a Manhattan and Andrew made my drink perfect! He also recommended the espresso Martini as I am a professional taste tester of that specific drink. It was on tap and it was really good. I did enjoy it and had to cut myself off after that. Just a 2 drink limit for me as I was done with work. I sat down and had great conversation with the gentleman. I have been there and had the Bacon Bourbon and it was seriously a great drink but they do not have that on the menu anymore. Ughhh but they are introducing a new smoked drink next week and I cannot wait to try it. No one on Main Street Patchogue has a smoked drink. Not even Whiskey Neat. I will come back next week with my wife. I also had drinks there from Kayla and these 2 professional mixologist are on point with their craft of drink making. I just please ask to bring back that bacon bourbon for me and the old menu surf and turf burger from Public House menu.... I love it. Please give these 2 a raise they deserve it as they are people persons.... Thank you Standard Rec. I'll be back. Ohhhh and the food I have had there is more than I can say... ughhhh perfect hand crafted sandwiches that rip apart with spreading cheese and dripping sauce. So good have to order more to bring home with you! read more

Standard Rec - Manhattan by Andrew... - Bars Near Me - Patchogue, New York

We had dinner and drinks there last night and it was great. But the thing we noticed most was that our waitress Sophia was so attentive and nice. We really appreciated her and when we told her we were heading to a show, she made sure to get our check quickly. read more

My husband and I recently went to Standard Rec for a date night. When you walk in, you're immediately in the bar area which is full of a ton of people having a great time, big TV screens, a small arcade and a wall of board and card games, at the disposal of the patrons. There is a separate section for tables which is much more quiet, but also doesn't make you feel too detached from the fun. When we were there there was live music and we could hear it very well but also could hear each other very well when we were sitting at our table, so the restaurant section is perfectly situated. We started with the Brisket Quesadillas. They were absolutely fantastic. I ordered a Rocket Pop Cocktail after consulting our server Steven. It was soooo delicious! Tasted exactly like a Rocket Pop. I got the Saucy Smash Burger for dinner and my husband got the Brisket Grilled Cheese. We were blown away by how fresh and delicious our meals were. Lastly, for dessert, we ordered the ice cream tacos. Absolutely adorable and a perfect end to our meal. We also went and got Trivial Pursuit while we were eating, and had a great time playing the game while enjoying all this delicious food. We will absolutely, without a doubt, be back again. read more

Standard Rec - A tall, multi-colored cocktail with red, white, and blue layers, topped with a maraschino cherry and ice, is placed on a wooden table. The drink has two black straws and is in a highball glass. In the background, there is a glass of water and a dimly lit bar or restaurant environment with other patrons. - Bars Near Me - Patchogue, New York

God awful drinks. The business owner was overheard talking very poorly about his staff and customers. Absolutely embarrassing and will not support a business whose owners are that unprofessional.... read more

My husband and I really love SR! Whenever our friends come out to Patchogue, they always want to go there and play a few games. The vibes are always really chill and the music is great! I've had a couple of the appetizers but we usually don't eat dinner there, just drink and hang out. Also, the people that work there are usually pretty nice and efficient so that's always a bonus! read more

The menu has tasty, healthy options. I love the general tso's cauliflower! Yum! And my server was lovely. This place is a great vibe. read more

The drinks had way to much crushed ice in it and its in a slim glass for $13 bucks so its like less then a shot glass of liquor. Food was good. The machine to give us change to play with the games wasn't working and they had no change to give out. read more

I expected the food to be just okay and like every other "cool restaurant" but it's actually AMAZING. the CBR crunchwrap is fantastic and their fries are the best i've ever had. Avery is literally the nicest person i've ever met and i'm so happy she was our server. also they have games? I think i have a new favorite restaurant. read more

I love everything about the standard rec except when there games are broken. I love it here! The drinks, the food, the service, the atmosphere....one of my favorite on the strips. If you love mezcal tequila please get the enter the dragon! This place is so niche from the rest of the bars in Patchogue and it's for this reason i come here. Less rowdy but still fun. I have to only give 4 stars as the last few times i came here the arcade games definitely had wear and tear as not many were working. read more

My daughter could not have chosen a more perfect place to host her 30th birthday celebration with her friends. Each and every staff member contributed to the success of the party by being so attentive to her and all of her guests as well as being consistent in keeping the drinks and food flowing. Both of which did not fall short of being terrific. Thank you again to the staff at Standard Rec for the part you played in helping her make this amazing memory. read more

A simply cool, retro chic extension of delight from the Brixton crew. The converted space of what was once the Public House. Nestled in the heart of Patchogue's resurrected "village", you are simply drawn into this space. A cross between your favorite arcade, your rich friends game room in their basement or perhaps a boardwalk carnival with its rows of skeeball with the decor, it's kitsch, or the "exhibits that run the gamut from chic to sci-fi. Part dining room & cool bar (Old fashions on tap!?!) expansive space with doting service staff, and surprisingly ingenious and delicious nibbles. Tuna Poke bowls with incredible sesame soba noodles to humus with edamame mixed in for crunch... a vegan, gluten fairy Princess dream come true. I'm told a small, limited menu for now but I'm sure in true Brixtonite fashion, I'm certain the delicacies pouring out of the kitchen will be trend setting and help put Standard Rec on the map! Cheers and job well done. Parking is metered, and weekends could prove to be a challenge. Incredible, friendly service & priced accordingly. read more

To start, with a name like "Standard Rec", you'd better be supplying your "games". Nope. A Pacman arcade machine, large Jenga, a skeeball and basketball machine? Not even close to being enough, let's be realistic. All that aside, here's our review: Atmosphere: for a Saturday afternoon, the place was absolutely dead, a strange thing for downtown Patchogue on a Saturday and typically a telltale sign that something is wrong. Maybe the public has spoken. We decided to give it a chance and try anyway. The place was kind of dark and gloomy, we sat at a table that had Uno cards, so we played while waiting for food to be delivered. Service: the waitress was friendly enough, the food was on the slow side to come to table, but finally came. Food: the lemon pepper wings were nothing special for 10 bucks. Way overpriced, and I've had better wings from Pizza Hut. I was told they were in a lemon pepper "sauce", but they were very dry and I was hungry. Good lord. The 3 Birria Tacos were flat and boring. Nothing to them, just a hardshell with meat in it to dip in some Birria sauce, which was kind of tasteless. For $14, it was an absolutely terrible value. The mac n cheese was not good, watery and had no flavor, but they corrected it and brought a hamburger with fries which was ok. Overall, the food quality needs MAJOR improvement. We did not order any fancy drinks from the bar, so can't comment on that. To say that this place "has it all" is false in it's current platform. There's just too many places in Patchogue alone to try ( a good thing for customers) but unfortunately there was nothing at this establishment that makes us want to come back any time soon. read more

The setup is cool. They have a few arcade games, and it was good vibes. The bartending service is ok, but John is fantastic. I think John might have been a bareback. The woman didn't seem like she wanted to be there. It seemed like she wanted to close the bar. I assumed she was having a bad day. I decided to give it another try because I enjoyed my time, minus the bad bartending service. I took my cousin here for her birthday, and it was a horrendous mistake. The bartending service got worse. They are always in a rush to close. I greeted the same bartender, a woman with black curly hair. She seemed pissed and looked at her phone. She walked away and spoke to a guy. Then, she came back said we are doing the last call. I was appalled by the customer service. She literally yelled out I want to go home, and I'm opening tomorrow. They are a new establishment, and it seems like it has potential, but the bartenders that are currently working seem not to have the priorities to bartend and welcome people. read more

Service was great, drinks were great, ambiance was great, food was HORRIBLE!!! i would not eat here ever again

Walking past the area and noticing Public House was missing. Turns out they rebranded.. and OMG is it a gorgeous rebrand!! The atmosphere is so welcoming and interesting, with arcade machines that actually work! The menu is small but that's expected for just being open for three weeks and trying out different foods to see which ones are a hit. My family tried out most and each one was so delicious! Not just in the food selection but how it was prepared and served. Absolutely amazing. And now the wait staff.. So surprisingly friendly!! Usually with new(er) places you have a couple things right and a few things wrong... But Standard Rec checked ALL of our boxes! For my wife's first time out since having our 2nd child, she was delighted to see such a friendly wait staff who came by NUMEROUS times to make sure our food was prepped well and then to compliment us on how adorable our two kids were!! No judgements for breast-feeding our child and made my wife feel so comfortable. I'll recommend this place to anyone who wants to chill in downtown Patchogue and not be so overcome with people filling all the popular spots. Check this place out and you won't regret it! Get the Mac n cheese too read more

All the food and drinks we tried were amazing! The staff was very nice and friendly. Such a fun spot with the best vibes.

We stopped in opening weekend and the place looks great. The staff was very friendly, but despite all of this there was a major issue that is situational. This restaurant is not child friendly in the least. The menu was limited, but adequate. However, there was no children's menu whatsoever and we were told the only thing that was child friendly were French fries. We did order those in addition to a couple of appetizers and drinks. The food we had was good, as were the drinks. If children are not an issue that affects you I'd give them a solid four, if not higher. I'd gladly come back, but not with a child. read more

Fun place. Dinner, drinks and games. Food was good. Large dining area and a small game room in the back

Pretty Good food. Good atmosphere. Great dj. Very happy overall. Will try again soon

Im so glad that this is bar was operating during Covid let me tell you! Friendly staff, and even greater atmosphere. After a long day at work this is the place to come and enjoy a drink or two and have a great time with friends. Our waitress Haylee was great! She was so friendly and always made sure that we had another round coming! We were told that they also had games for us to play and that we could walk around and soak in the energy. When I tell you it was jammed packed in there, boy you couldn't even hear yourself think but I loved it! read more

Stephanie was absolutely fantastic 10/10 would recommend she's was attentive and super friendly

Went in yesterday and got some Birria Tacos as well as the Baja Blast Margarita. Absolutely delicious. Staff was super nice and welcoming. Love the nostalgia decor. My only issue is they have nowhere to place down a drink if you're playing Skeeball or any of the arcade games in the back. read more

We loved this place! Especially the bomb pop drink! Tasted just like the ice pop that we loved in the 80s-90s!

I really loved coming here when they first opened but the food and staff has not been it recently. hostess and manager have been nasty on several occasions. i watched the manager scream at an employee last weekend and it's straight up uncomfortable read more

My wife just surprised me with a Birthday party at Standard Rec and I can not say how impressed I was with the staff and food. The waitress we had was so polite and interactive with our group.

We had a great outdoor brunch and ordered the Brunch Board. It was a little bit of everything and all tasting delicious. Pancakes with a sprinkle of powdered sugar, bacon, chicken and biscuits, breakfast tacos filled with delish scrambled eggs, ground sausage, topped with pico and guacamole, Mexican street tots, and the best addition: fresh fruit! The weather was great to eat outdoors and the service was great. Don't be fooled by a cool bar serving awesome brunch! read more
