“Remember Cheers where "everybody knows your name"? Snips is Cheers on steroids!! The bartenders are the BEST! The vibe is ELECTRIC and the back deck overlooking the picturesque lake is awe inspiring! The owners, Chris and Cari, know how to keep a crowd coming back!! They have become part of my extended family! Stop by..."kick the tires" and you'll thank me later! Snips is an oasis strategically place in the, proverbial, desert! You're welcome!!😎🥂🎵💥💥💥“

“Wanted to give a huge shout out to the Tap Room (Patchogue) (specifically the Patchogue location). We were invited to a family party, buffet-style. I reached out to the restaurant via email, because I wanted to make sure they could accommodate my daughters food allergies -- eggs, soy, sunflower seeds, tree nuts and peanuts, or I would plan ahead and pack snacks she could safely eat instead. The Culinary Director, Joseph Walsh, called me the next day. He spoke to me for awhile, went over her food allergies, made some suggestions, and assured me that he would come up with something she could safely eat. The morning of the party, he sent me an email to confirm we were coming and his suggestions for a safe meal (rice and beans sauteed with bell peppers, chicken cutlet w/ no egg, and a mixed fruit salad). I emailed him back that just rice and beans and the fruit salad would be fine, because she doesn't eat chicken. He emailed me back, concerned that rice and beans and a fruit salad wouldn't be enough, but I assured him it would be fine because she's only 7 and has anxiety over trying new foods at restaurants (understandably), so sticking with rice and beans and fruit salad, which she's comfortable with, would be perfect. At the event, Joseph told my relative that he wanted to talk to us, and when we arrived, he came to introduce himself, told me that he was making sure everything was prepared separately and would be ready for her shortly. Absolutely fantastic service. We truly, truly appreciated all his care and effort, because that's sadly not the norm most of the time when we try to eat out. Thank you Joseph at the Tap Room in Patchogue!“

“One of the best restaurants on Long Island. The food is great. Every soup they make is outstanding. The service is fantastic and they are always friendly and helpful. Truly 5 stars and the prices are very reasonable especially for a restaurant with such high quality food and service.“

“We are very pleased with the professional way Catering Manager Lisa Morgan packaged our catered order. Ms. Morgan made sure we had everything needed to make our celebration a success. The food was delicious!“

“This place just does it right! We keep stopping in and diving deeper into the menu and trying different things, we love all of them. Our 11 month old was with us this weekend and our server was awesome with him as well. Five stars for the food, the staff, the menu, the beer choices, and the local watering hole type of vibe the whole atmosphere has!“

“Went to Grumpy Jack's to celebrate my granddaughter's H.S. graduation. We were a table of 22, seated upstairs. Our waitress, Joelle, was amazing. She was working the entire restaurant. The downstairs and our group upstairs. She was very pleasant, professional, and did a great job handling everything herself. The food was so good. There are so many food options on the menu, it caters to everyone's tastes. Definitely recommend going there and we will definitely go back. Looking forward to it!!“

“Arguably the best restaurant in Patchogue. Every menu item I have had there has been delicious. The chicken crust pizza truly sets them apart as it is something that is not offered anywhere else. It is a menu item that I look forward to having every time I visit there.

It has a vibe unto itself as it is a great place to watch a game at the bar (happy hour is Monday to Friday 4-7 pm) or take your family to enjoy a meal at a table.

The staff there is always amicable and welcoming. The staff is yet another reason as to why I keep going back there.“

“Love Fatty’s Hoboe Wings!!!“

“Oh my goodness, my family went to Billie’s for Easter Dinner last night! The food was out of this world. Everything we got was spot on from the appetizers to the dessert! The service was amazing, and it didn’t cost an arm and a leg to enjoy a night out. I’m looking forward to going back when the weather is a bit warmer and eating on their back deck. I consider myself a bit of a foodie and this place was top-notch! Definitely give it a try. Oh, and it wasn’t packed like every other establishment town Port!“

“Great food great staff indoor outdoor dining“

“James, owner of Mallory Square was absolutely wonderful Supporting the Sayville Library as they had a bake sale near his restaurant down by the ferry. He additionally. donated for a second fundraiser

Mallory is a cute Spot with a casual indoor outdoor bar and dining area. It is just steps from the Pines and Cherry Grove Ferries, making it great for a missed ferry or in between ferries. Heidi has been there for years and is simply wonderful behind the bar. The food is excellent. It is tasty, quick and handy or sandwiches you can sit for.

And James is simply over the moon! Thank you for supporting the Sayville Library.“

“Recently celebrated our daughter’s 1st Birthday here. After researching many venues in the area we landed with the Grille. Jenn (the event coordinator) was extremely friendly, professional and informative from the moment I called her to inquire about the space. The venue is a dual space. You have the catering room as well as the bar area where there are pool tables and a dart board. Perfect for our guests in their 20s. The food and staff were amazing. I cannot rave enough about Amy, Jenn, Steve, Ernesto and Sabrina. They were all so helpful and accommodating during our event. Jenn was extremely attentive and made sure we had all our desires fulfilled, up until the morning of the party. I can’t say enough wonderful things about this establishment. Book them! You won’t regret it!“

“Love this place! A great place to chill out with some food, drinks, and live music 7 nights/week.

Parking: Use your GPS to find it, I could have never found it on my own. It’s a quiet little spot. Very busy on weekend nights during the summer!“

“Tiki Joe's is a nice little beach front kitchen and bar. The food is good. A little pricey though. The bar is nice. Beautiful view of the Long Island Sound on the North Shore. A lot of speciality drinks/cocktails. They have bands that usually play on the weekends but you have to get there early. They stop playing by 9p.m. Other than that, overall decent spot.

Wheelchair accessibility: Plenty of parking“

“Small bar with great bartenders and DJ“

“Very good food and service. Kelly the bartender was very good, friendly with the customers, and made good recommendations towards what to eat on the menu.

The New England Clam Chowder is very good and loaded with clams.

The Calamari appetizer is well prepared, tender, with good flavor.

The Ceasar Salad Chicken Wrap with a salad instead of French Fries is good, the salad is fresh and the Blue Cheese dressing is full of chunks of Blue Cheese.

Happy Hour dtink specials are available.“
