The owner, Keith Davis, is quite the entrepreneur who offers unique baked goods and prepared foods of the highest quality. He has even written a book detailing his approach to food. Multiple locations in the Hamptons with my favorite being Bridgehampton for its spaciousness.

Their service? Pitiful! I suppose that if you just look like an "ordinary" working person, you're not worth their time or attention as I waited for about 10 minutes to be noticed by the guy taking the orders when there was nobody else waiting to place orders or on orders.
Anywho! I don't think they're much better than any other deli, they do have a good selection of items on their menu that I didn't try, therefore I can't say anything negative nor...
