    Riverhead Beverage has steadily been growing as an awesome craft beer supplier for the East End of…read moreLong Island. Their growler station always has at least 5 different beers ready for fills, with a majority of those lines being connected to beers from local breweries. They have an extensive craft beer selection that nearly takes up half of the store. The selection is almost always changing, and what is in stock is constantly being updated. One of my favorite things about Riverhead Beverage is that they do a lot of leg work to get special one-off beers that would be difficult to find otherwise. Whenever they are able to lock down a case of a special collaboration (recently Sierra Nevada/Dogfish Head Life and Limb) or a limited production/release (Stone 15th Anniversary Escondidian Imperial Black IPA), they post about it on Facebook, letting you know when it's going to be in and how many bottles they have. They also occasionally run contests where they basically draw a name out of a hat and you win some beer related prize. Recent prizes have included a Wooden Corona Beach Chair, A Budweiser Weber Grill, and a Bud Light iPod Speaker Tower. And it costs nothing to enter the contest. There is nothing wrong with free stuff. Ever. My only criticism with Riverhead Beverage is there 22oz. bottle, or bomber, or 750mL bottle, selection is thin. There's about 4 full rows of shelves of 6-packs and only one row for bombers. I think criticism may even be too strong a word for it. My second favorite beverage distributor in Suffolk County.

    We had the absolutely worst experience with Kevin from Riverhead Beverages…read more We should have known not to use them when we had to chase them just to get a response and quote for an event we were having, but tried to give Kevin the benefit of the doubt after he assured us everything would be great because he's been in the business for over 20 years. We asked for a 10am delivery. Kevin called the morning of and said they were running late and would be there at 10:30am. They did not show up until 11:15am (45 minutes later than the proposed late arrival). Our guests arrived at 11am. We checked the invoice and they didn't even have the house number on the invoice and that's why the drivers were late- yet no one called to ask for it. When I said our guests were already there and now waiting for the drinks to be setup Kevin's response was "I didn't think your guests would be there at 11am". Our guests had to tap one of the kegs to help out because the delivery guys were busy packing the cans in a cooler because they were left out in the sun of their pickup truck and arrived warm. There was not enough ice for the kegs or beverages so we had to call another distributor for help. When I called to ask for some type of compensation or refund Kevin was extremely rude. He asked me what I think my refund should be and I said $200. He proceeded to get annoyed and tell me I was crazy and said he'd refund for the ice- which we didn't even have enough of. When I told him I found this to be unprofessional he actually had the audacity to be rude and threatened to take back the kegs. I work in customer service and am very patient and understanding because these things happen. However, as a business owner you would think you would try to be polite and understanding then try to work with your client to find a solution rather than act out and be rude. Kevin was honestly one of the most unprofessional people I have ever worked with. Considering we paid in full upfront in full and were reassured we would not have any issues. I do not think it was too much to ask for to have the services we agreed upon and paid for to be fulfilled. I don't recommend Kevin's "business" Riverhead Beverage.

    August 30, 2025 I…read morecame here with my friend as part of a Riverhead brewery crawl we did. I was DD. I do like a good non alcoholic beer and North Fork and Ubergeek had one for me. It was the same beer called devolve. I liked the beer it was light with a nice fruity taste. Northfork looks like they set up shop in a garage which is pretty cool, they designed it well but I wonder how they stay open in the winter. I did like the atmosphere of nice fresh air coming in from outside. I liked North Fork definitely a good brewery to check out!

    We wanted to keep the party going on the last day of 4th of July weekend, so we stopped by North…read moreFork Brewing for a flight and a bite. Our bartender was awesome. Super nice and approachable, let us sample anything we wanted. I went with a flight to start out with since there was a nice variety of options. I'm not an IPA person, so I opted for a peach sour, a pilsner, a wheat beer and one wild card that was bitter but in a good way. I love a good sour and had to get a second glass of the peach beer after my flight. Prices are reasonable, flights are around $12 for four pours, and a draft beer is $9. They also have cans to go if there's a beer you fall in love with and want to take home with you. They have a rotating food truck out back (it was Greek food when we came here) and also had a few empanadas. We did the three for $13 and got a variety. Our bartender accommodated us by leaving the black bean one on a separate plate since one of us don't eat meat. Ambiance here is chill and laid back, there are several games you can play and there was live music you could hear playing from next door at Montauk Distilling Co. which was a nice touch. A solid place to spend a nice Sunday - I was honestly surprised they weren't packed.
