I’ve been coming here since I was a child every holiday season and it never gets old… the food, the people, and the atmosphere. This is a must visit restaurant whether you’re near or far!!! 75 years and going strong.

On pay days my dad would take us to Modern Snack Bar. It had the best lobster salad sandwich in the world!

Absolutely loved this gem of a spot. From the moment you walk in, it’s like taking a step back in time. The food was delicious. We had the lobster bisque, the e soft shell crab sandwich, the turkey dinner and of course dessert. The pies are unbelievable. Better than Briarmere or whatever.
Prime rib was so tender and delicious. Flounder with crabmeat was outstanding. Their service was good.

The Modern Snack Bar is a nostalgic gem with a classic diner feel and some great food. The atmosphere blends old-school charm with a cozy, retro vibe, vinyl booths, friendly service, and that familiar North Fork diner hum. It’s casual, comfortable, and full of character. The menu is a mix of comfort food classics and local favorites. The roast duck and mashed turnips are well-known staples, and the burgers, pies, and seafood are consistently solid. Portions are generous, and everything feels homemade.

We had the pleasure of dining at the Snack Bar. The crab was excellent, and the pot roast was incredible. Congratulations on 75 years of serving the North Fork. We have enjoyed the Snack Bar for over 50 of those years. Thank you for the consistent quality.
