The full ranking
La Colombe draft lattes in Sag Harbor, house-roasted espresso in Montauk, donuts worth the detour. The East End runs on its local counters, not the chains.
Sagtown Coffee (Sag Harbor)
Sag Harbor's village living room since 2012, pulling La Colombe roasts, draft lattes, and cold brew steps from the wharf. Indoor and outdoor seats fill with locals and weekenders alike.
Grindstone Coffee & Donuts (Sag Harbor)
Single-origin beans roasted in house and donuts that take 48 hours to make, together on Sag Harbor's Main Street. The honey lavender latte and homemade almond milk have cult followings.
Bambi's Cafe (Montauk)
A cozy hideaway off Carl Fisher Plaza with house-baked pastries, Moroccan mint tea, and a famous egg sammy. Montauk's best-reviewed coffee stop, with a 4.8 on Google and goop's seal of approval.
Hampton Coffee Company (Multiple Locations)
Long Island's largest independent roaster has fueled the East End since 1994, from Water Mill to Westhampton Beach. Full breakfast menu, monthly specialty drinks, and an order-ahead app.
Java Nation (Bridgehampton)
A 1994-vintage roaster tucked by the Bridgehampton train station, with leather couches, local art, and the roaster humming in the back room. Its 4.8 Google rating is the highest of any coffee shop in the Hamptons.
Mostrador Marram (Montauk)
Inside the Marram hotel steps from the ocean, this Latin-inflected counter pairs cortados and flat whites with pastries and fresh juices. The most beautiful coffee run in Montauk.
Left Hand Coffee (Montauk)
Montauk's own roaster names its organic blends after surf spots and the lighthouse. Grab an iced Nutella latte before paddling out.
Jack's Stir Brew Coffee (Amagansett)
The NYC organic pioneer's Amagansett outpost stir-brews every cup with its patented brewer and bakes vegan treats. The Teddy Boy and the honey-cinnamon Happy Jack are summer rituals.
Sant Ambroeus (Southampton)
Milanese espresso, pastel pastries, and serious people-watching in Southampton, with an East Hampton outpost too. Piping hot espresso with a side of local buzz.
Golden Pear Cafe (Multiple Locations)
The green-and-yellow awning has marked Hamptons coffee and breakfast since 1987. Reliable espresso blends, fresh-baked goods, and main-street seats in three villages.
