The Cliffton is hands down the best place to drink in Patchogue and the best dive bar in Long Island.

Visit Date: December 11, 2024…read more I came here with the guy I'm dating. We like to go to the vinyl nights that Tom Perrone has, with other people from 8 o'clock shot (the best group on facebook). Tom and Maria were hosting a Wednesday night Vinyl Night at Fadely's. This place is so interesting. I couldn't stop looking around at all the decor, everywhere I looked I saw something new tucked into one of the nooks & crannies of the place. It was raining when we went but the outside looked like a great place to be. There was one spot where you can shelter from the rain and they hung an upside down Christmas tree in it. The drink offerings seem to be a wide variety and good choices. I don't drink alcohol so I had my orange juice and seltzer which is one of my go to drinks if I'm not having a non alcoholic beer. Everyone here was nice and friendly including the bartender. I would come here again, a nice place to hang out.

Came here on a fall Saturday night for a little night cap after a wedding. From the outside you…read morewould hardly expect anything from this place, a real dive bar if there ever was one in Patchogue. But once you get, if you're like me you'll be pleasantly surprised! The place offers live music occasionally and has a ton of space both indoors and out back to hangout, both with TVs in case you have any sport viewing you want to do as well. I definitely recommend the outdoor area if you've got a nice enough night for it. The drink variety won't blow your pants off, but it's got something for everybody and at prices that won't blow your pants off either. Although I didn't get a chance to try any of the food, from what I saw though it looked like good bar fare, and I in particular was eyeing the pizza. There's no dedicated parking lot, but there is some decent parking along the side streets nearby that shouldn't give you too much issue. This place is a nice change up from the typical scene you see a long main street. It might not be the loud and club like vibe you might be looking for, but for me that's quite alright. Would be happy to come back here anytime for a cold hard beverage and good conversation.

For the past several months I've been on a weight loss journey and I've definitely cut down on…read moreeating out but since it was my birthday I decided a great burger and a beer would be the perfect gift to myself. Sifting through the many choices on yelp was a little overwhelming. Then it hit me. I've eaten at two morrow pub many times in the past and have never had a sub par experience. It's been quite awhile since bread or potato passed my lips so I wanted it to be perfect. Two Morrows was an obvious choice. It was freezing out and walking into the warm and friendly space highlighted by the hot fireplace set the table for us. We were seated right next to said fireplace and our server Lisa took care of us right away. She was helpful and friendly and made us feel right at home. I ordered the piggy platter which consisted of a half pound burger cooked exactly the way I ordered it. It comes with your choice of sides, mine was steak fries also cooked to perfection and Lisa was nice enough to add cole slaw, creamy and crunchy. I added a pint of toasted lager, my girlfriend had a diet friendly burger and a salad and the food came out right away. Hot and fresh. The burgers here and made the old fashioned way, 8oz. Of fresh chopped meat formed by hand and cooked to perfection. My girl and I chose med rare. This place makes me happy. Not to noisy, cozy, classic pub atmosphere, choice of sport or movie on the several TVs and oh that fireplace! This place is not too big but I kind of like that. Oh and its clean! At the end of our meal Lisa supplied us with the check and since Valentines day was just a couple days away my girl got a valentines day card with a cute heart bracelet. I'm not sure this experience couldve been had at many other places. Let me end with saying you can probably find fancier newer pubs or restaurants at a much higher price point but not many with a more satisfying experience. Dont pass this place without stopping by. The menu isnt huge but sometimes making fewer things but doing them well is a better strategy. BTW the beer was great ttoo.Thanks again Lisa.

Fell in love with this place, everyone is so friendly…read more When you arrive and you just know you belong. Tonight was vinyl night and it was fantastic music paired with fabulous food.

This is 100% a locals spot. Everyone seems to know each other or be dating or related, but are friendly and did include us newbies in their shenanigans. Bartender was nice and attentive, also loud and obnoxious in the best way. It feels dirty and slightly uncomfortable but in the way that makes you want to stay and continue experiencing it-- if that makes any sense. It's a great spot choice for a ridiculous and unpredictable night. At the very least, you'll leave with a story and a memory you'll never forget. TLDR; we will most likely go back the next time we're feeling frisky and risky

As you enter, you'll notice that The Bar Area is against the wall with a C-shape to it. They offer about 10 beers on tap and small selection of food to pick from, such as chips, pizza, and a pretzel. They also offer an ATM, Multiple Candy Machines, 2 Dart Boards, Multiple TV's, Pinball, Pool Table, and TouchTunes. There's separate restrooms for men and women, and the smoking area is done outside, in the front of the building. There's plenty of seating here, for small to midsize groups of people to attend. This place has a fun atmosphere about it and is worth checking out.
