This place is in a great location/view and they have amazing live music. Unfortunately canโt say the same about the service. My friend told me they had a mango wheat beer thatโs one of my favorites and I went to get one. My body can not take carbonation well so as much as I love beer I canโt have it all the time and to make my digestion easier I always ask for a extra cup so I can pass it from cup to cup to get the carbonation out. I never had a problem with that anywhere else. But the bartender named Alisha said the bar had a policy about not giving extra cups. I told her I understood and explained my situation, and I could do it in front of her so she would see there was no harm. I didnโt intend to use the cup for anything else than that. She said no with a big attitude, I kindly asked for my refund then because unfortunately if I drank that beer the way it was I was going to be in pain next day. Again with an attitude she said they donโt do refunds. I was calm the whole time while she was giving me the worst โKarenโ attitude Iโve ever seen. I asked to speak to someone else, she called the manager. He then gave me a cup and I changed from cup to cup in front of him. Done, something sooooo simple and Alisha was giving me such a hard time for it. I am a bartender too and I know my request is very peculiar and strange. But never in a million years I would treat a customer the way she did for such a tiny request. I understand company policies but people also need empathy to understand peopleโs limitations when it...
ย ย ย Read moreFirst visit to this vintage 1960s beach-front eatery and bar. If youโre really hungry this is the place to go. Prices are high ($14 for grilled cheese) but platter came with large and thick bread in grilled cheese sandwich served with bread and butter chips (picked slices) and a very generous (enormous) side of sweet potato wedges. They were well cooked a good balance between crispness and still being somewhat moist (not soggy at all!). I ate this feast st the picnic tables on the shore side of the restaurant. There is a building marker from 1959; Grease ( the musical) oozes from the concrete! The beach has a designated swimming area between two red flags and a sign proclaims no drownings in the history of the beach. The snack bar accepts cash and cards as well as mobile payments.There are two other nearby attractions that I recommend you visit: the Flight 800 memorial just to the east of the snack bar, and the Otis Park High Dunes Wilderness Visitor Center a short walk...
ย ย ย Read moreAs a long time, diehard fan of Beach Hut, I was counting down the days until the start of summer and the beginning of Beach Hut season. Sadly, our experience on Day 1 of the summer season had us counting down the minutes until we left. Overpriced beverages, inedible food, poor customer service, and a readily apparent corner-cutting attitude have turned the restaurant that we loved for years into just another subpar beach dive. The new management has abandoned what made Beach Hut a staple of our summer fun in favor of a low budget, low quality approach at higher prices. Two plates of cold rigatoni with an obviously canned sauce, $15 specialty drinks reminiscent of cough syrup, and fish that had a freezer burnt aftertaste collectively sent us back to the car early in desperate search of something to take the taste, both literally and figuratively, out of our mouth. If youโre looking to be disappointed on a summer night in Eastern Long Island, then the new Tiki...
