    Had brunch at this place. Is a small place ,inside with just 5 tables and they have an outside seating area which is nice . Looks life family owned, I had eggs Benedict was very good and my husband love his to . Will be back !

    I ate half of French toast already , it was very good

    Came early as it does fill up. Last time I sat at counter as tables were full. Came on a Saturday morning and got a table . It's not fancy but it's clean and service is good. Waitress was pleasant and there are refills on coffee. I had the French toast which was very good. Hash browns were good and so was Canadian bacon. I would recommend for a nice leisurely breakfast

    Blt wrap with fries
    Stephanie G.

    Let's make one thing clear. This is a hole in the wall. But this hole in the wall knows how to make great food! My mom and I decided to try out some place new for lunch this week and through my internet digging I came across the BLT Cafe. After reading some reviews online I had high expectations and they were definitely met! I got a BLT wrap with fries and my mom got some wrap that involved veggies and turkey with mac salad. Both of us were very happy with our choices. The food came out quick and was so delicious! Great service too. My favorite part was that the fries seemed twice fried. They were so crispy and amazing. We will absolutely be back. Perfect spot for comfort food.

    Turkey Club

    Food is great here, total hole in the wall place. Would be even better if they redid or fixed up the actual place. However, such personal service and delicious food. Turkey club was fantastic and they use boars head cold cuts (way better than thick cut turkey). The macaroni salad was delicious and tasted so homemade. Pancakes were also so good! Will be back. There is a small counter with a few stools and then a few tables. Inside is very small. Excited to try new things.

    Baked Apples over French Toast. ABSOLUTELY scrumptious!!!

    Jose and his staff are still slaying the breakfast and lunch game but NOW.. he's doing dinner Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays. Of course I had to see my favorite buddies at BLT for now dinner. I personally had the shrimp francese with rice and my veggie was spinach. My God! Jose I will say this forever and ever. You slayed dinner! The shrimps were a nice size and just partying it up in my insides!!! Have I ever had a bad meal from here? Nope. Never. The only thing that's a little difficult currently is parking due to the work on Lake Avenue but when there's a will there's a way to my beloved BLT. PS - If you've never been what the heck are you waiting for?!

    2 eggs with corn beef hash
    Kevin C.

    We came across this place on yelp and reviews were positive. It is a very small place, which we welcome as it has a nice family owned feel. I got the patty melt sandwich which they included an egg inside. I asked for medium and it was cooked to perfection. It came with a side of fries. My son got the 2 eggs with corn beef hash and he gobbled it all up. It came with toast and warm buttery spread. My wife got the mushroom omelette and she was astounded at the portion. All in all, we all really enjoyed our food and especially for a diner, the attentiveness of the waitresses were awesome to witness.

    Very impressed with the food, got corn beef hash and eggs easy over with home fries. Food was a 10 service was a 7. A little hole in the wall joint that knows how to make great food

    I was going to be stuck in Smithtown for a while, so I desperately needed coffee. Thanks to my…read morefellow Yelpers, I came across Sweetwaters Coffee & Tea, and I'm so glad I did. I ordered the French Vietnamese Au Lait along with a sausage, egg, and cheese on a croissant. I never thought I'd wish I lived in Smithtown until that moment. The coffee was absolutely divine, and the breakfast sandwich was perfectly made. If you're someone who isn't used to drinking coffee, do yourself a favor and don't order the quad version and then wonder why you're awake all night! It's delicious, but it's packed with caffeine and definitely lives up to its name. The café itself is clean, cozy, and inviting. It's the perfect place to study, catch up on work, or curl up with a good book. I ended up pulling out my Kindle and finishing my book club read while I waited for Hobby Lobby to open, and it couldn't have been a better way to spend the morning. There's a small parking lot, but I had no trouble finding a spot. The restroom was also incredibly clean, which I always appreciate. The customer service was outstanding, and everyone made me feel welcome from the moment I walked in. I'll definitely be making the trip back to Smithtown for another visit. The coffee alone is worth the drive!

There is a QR code at the tables and they prefer you to order at your table, however we had questions and some items were not on the QR menu so we had to go to cashier and ask questions. There is lots of seating on the floor on cushions and mattresses, but there are also several chairs. When you enter you have to take your shoes off, which is not an issue, just wish they had a bench you could sit on to take off your shoes and put your shoes on afterwards, as that was difficult for me , as I didn't have slip ons. That's my only negative. Food was delicious . I tried a new beverage and the pistachio cake- both delish! It is located in a strip mall, so lots of parking. Prices reasonable

They do request you remove your shoes, hey I do it at home so no problem for me. I enjoyed a chai tea with rose & cardamom. It was very good, had a kind of floral light hot chocolate taste. I'm sure it's fun at night, I believe you can get teas for a group. If you want to try something different I suggest you try them!

Blueberry Matcha Latte -- 5/5. Fresh, clean, and reminded me of Hawaii. Avocado Toast -- 5/5. Healthy but still packed with flavor. The sautéed red onions really made it stand out. They also have a restroom, parking, and a great variety of food and pastries. Overall, one of the best coffee spots I've visited recently. Definitely coming back.

They don't take reservations. After about 10 minutes my friend and I plus 3 teens (my kids and a friend) were starving and Schnitzels was loud and crowded. We headed a few doors down to Sweet Mama's. Seated immediately. My friend and I shared the steak with penne dinner special and a Cobb salad with grilled chicken. My daughter ordered penne with butter off the kids menu. My son got a turkey burger and his friend got a grilled chicken sandwich on a hero instead of a wrap. Now the good -- portions were huge! My son could barely fit his burger in his mouth and it also had a half avocado on it. They didn't skimp. Steak with penne was delicious and so was the Cobb salad. We all shared off each other's plates because everything looked so amazing. Now the bad. My daughter's pasta was elbows, not penne as indicated on the menu. Not a catastrophe but she was looking forward to penne. Then - my son's friend put some ketchup on his plate for his fries. It was ,.. not red but brown. The bottle had an 8/25 expiration. We are in April 2026. We told the server and she said it's because it's the "simply ketchup" with no artificial dyes. She offered him ketchup packets "with fake dyes" but by that point he lost his appetite for fries. We grabbed ketchup from another table, same brand, Heinz Simply. You can see the difference in color. We showed the server and she acted annoyed. I told her we didn't want anyone getting sick on that ketchup and pointed out the expiration date. She rolled her eyes and said "oh I'll just throw it away." She kind of had an attitude and didn't even apologize. So that's why 4 stars. We'd go back but request not to have that server. The food is fantastic but watch your ketchup! If someone put it on a burger it would have been ruined.
