Well Starbucks has a great selection of food. Coffee is very powerful. You need a kick go to Starbucks lol. I have had a great experience, however there was this one last time I ordered the eggs . Something told me not to eat them but I did anyway. I regretted it. Those eggs had my stomach flipping for 3 days . We'll turns out it was a bit of food poisoning. Yuck. No more eggs for me from Starbucks . Overall location is great up the block from Jakes 58. Yes I will visit this location again . Happy yelping.

This Starbucks location was super conveniently located right off the highway, so I made a quick pit stop. I placed a mobile order and headed into the bathroom, which was not totally clean but not as bad as some Starbucks bathrooms that I've experienced (and probably better than any gas station stop I could've made along the way, so I'll take it. This location was clean, can't speak to the food but my latte was well made and to my liking. They were pretty busy when I stopped in so I had to wait a bit for my order, but overall not a bad stop. Not a bad Starbucks. If you're in the area or if you need a pit stop along the way off the highway, this will do the trick.

We visited on Mother's Day, so there was a wait, and it seemed like they were a little understaffed since there were empty tables where we were eventually seated. The food was excellent. I ordered the Eggs Benedict with home fries, and the home fries were honestly the highlight of the meal. I could have eaten a whole plate of them. The prices are a bit high, so it's more of a special occasion spot for me, but the quality makes it worth it. I also loved the interior, which has a nice mix of modern and farmhouse style. My only complaint was that the music was way too loud. I could barely hear my wife sitting right next to me. Other than that, we had a great experience

There wasn't any employees for me to ask. Now there are 2 other families waiting for the hostess. The hostess finally returns and directs me to the back for pickup. Thank you to the waitress who took my order and getting my food ready. I called in my order since I wasn't sure if there was enough time to make the food and drink. Hot Chocolate was delicious and fries were hot and crispy. Have to check this out again next time when I am not on a time schedule though mostly likely I will be again. Go try and decide for yourself.

Second chances are so important. Nothing supports that more than visiting a restaurant more than…read moreonce, especially when your first trip was one filled with mixed feelings and misses. That describes the last time I was at Nappi's Nook, over two years ago. Flash forward to this morning and we're looking at an update that shows a much different experience this time around. You see that first time at Nappi's was not long after they had opened. Kinks were definitely still being worked out and at the time, I just couldn't see it as a place worth choosing over other breakfast spots. But seeing reviews, awards, and that the place was still standing years later led my wife and I to come check them out again. This second time around we snagged a table (they definitely get crowded quickly) and had some very friendly service from our waitress. Things started with their Nappicinos which were a huge misfire that first time, but a definite improvement today. My wife got the Biscoff variety while I got the Peanut butter cup and boy were they tasty. A good balance of coffee and sweet flavors. Now when it came to food, last time I went with chicken and waffles which (from pics) still seemed like something I might enjoy more elsewhere and so instead, I landed on The Stove Top Skillet. This was a combo of onions, peppers, potatoes, sausage, cheese, and over easy eggs. It came out piping hot and it was honestly impressive in how it tasted. I liked the thinly sliced sausage coins and although the pepper pieces were a little massive, they were soft enough with everything mixing together nicely. As for the wife, she went with a special in the form of the hash omelette which was exactly as it sounded with Swiss cheese and paprika hollandaise sauce on top along with breakfast potatoes on the side. I tried it and it was pretty tasty as well. One last item we chose to order was a single beignet for $2.50 as a side option. Sometimes we're just not feeling a full sweet breakfast, but this little fried ball filled with chocolate did the trick. Was it comparable to Cafe Du Monde? No way, but it was still quality. Honestly, the whole meal was quality and definitely several steps up from that first round a few years back. The only true gripe I can give is the soundtrack to Nappi's. The music, a touch louder than one might think at 9 in the morning, was a little too trance/dance/club for the vibe of breakfast. Maybe on a Sunday for a boozy brunch, but perhaps some music changes would create a little more of a "Nook" feel. Perhaps? Overall though, I'm really very impressed and glad to have given Nappi's Nook a second shot. It may have taken some time for that to happen, but it showed that this place was the real deal because it was still around, and winning Best of LI awards in the meantime. Perhaps a place to get to on the earlier side, but for sure a location I know I will be returning to for round three much sooner than expected.

I ordered the Olas bowl which was Banana blend topped with blueberry flax granola, banana, blueberry, coconut flakes, chia seeds, and almond butter. It was heavenly! It was so delicious and had the perfect balance of everything. Customer service was decent. I was greeted right away and the girl behind the counter was friendly. Tip- if you're using Apple Maps, it will say "you arrived" as soon as you pull into Station Yards. Just be aware that it's located on the LEFT, and not on the right as the GPS states. Yumm!

Why hasn't this Ronkonkoma Playa Bowls place gotten any reviews yet? Well hey, I'm happy to start…read morethings off and throw them the five stars they deserve. I mean I've already been here at this aesthetically beachy location at least five times and at this point it's easy to see they are legit in their bowl making abilities (and then some!). Now what is a playa bowl? Well maybe you're more familiar with SoBol açaí bowls, a company that originated on Long Island and has a location all over the place at this point. I do love me some SoBol, but oh does Playa (a New Jersey originator) take the idea of açaí and blows it up! This is really seen across their massive menu with not just açaí and pitaya bowls available, but also mango, green, oatmeal, coconut, and banana bowl bases as options. Woah. My wife has already become a true fan of the mango bowls while for myself, I've also enjoyed those, but I truly love the banana bowl bases. Yum. Playa Bowls is more than just a bowl spot though as they also boast a nice list of smoothies that are just as legit. Case in point: the orange power smoothie (orange, vanilla protein, pineapple, coconut milk) is your summer time necessity. Fruity, creamy, and delicious. What's also pretty darn tasty is their Playa cold brew. Boasting chicory coffee concentrate (something you often only find in New Orleans), Playa Bowls brews up a formidable (and icy) cup of joe. Just as important to all of this is the friendly staff and reward system/app that is used here. Though a mostly younger group of employees, they seem to dole out your order at a reasonable speed and I've yet to have any issues when ordering through that aforementioned app. The app compiles rewards and also gives you special offers which just adds to the greatness of Playa. Overall, I'm sorry to say that as good as SoBol is, Playa is just a better. It's tough to beat so many bowl bases that are equally delicious and when you throw in the smoothies, coffee, and plenty of rewards via the app, I just need to get down on the ground and start bowing to the bowls. Playa bowls, that is. Now hopefully this one five star review will get the juices flowing for others to come and experience the tastiness found here in this Ronkonkoma spot.
