Amazing service and nostalgic food! We come here every time we visit Sag Harbor-- never disappoints!

Rounding up my stays in the Hamptons, it'll be a visit to this old-fashion soda shop from now on. Just like being on a 50s movie set with tables, booths, and, barstools. Welcoming they were to this first timer and service was great the rest of the time. For lunch, mmm, mmm, delicious was their homemade "Banana Ice Cream"; and, good was their plain hamburger, but I am sure I'll be ordering a BLT or grilled cheese instead next time! CHEERS! read more

Where I had my first Oreo ice cream 47 years ago. It's expensive, but it's BH & the original! Diner culture - totally on point.Enjoy the diner swivel stools at the bar - original. Greek fare is awesome. Totally biased - have loved them for a very long time (50+ years?!?). Go. Or don't. But go. Bring cash. Or you will be pulling from the atm or cleaning dishes. (Nope, don't do that for the last 20, you'll be hitting the atm in their entry.). So bring cash. In multiples. And you will experience a great meal and cheeky original historic diner experience of BH. Enjoy! Hope you do. read more

So I went to the children's museum out in Bridgehampton and saw this place along the way. It looked super cute and had decent reviews for ice cream. My daughter and I stopped in for lunch - it's cash only. I was going to order a quesadilla but it only came with chicken and cheese, nothing else, and was $18+. I guess you're in the Hamptons, so it's expensive, but I just couldn't see myself spending this kind of money on a quesadilla. We ordered 1 scoop of chocolate with m&ms for my daughter and I got a 2 scoop with hot fudge, whipped cream and a cherry. My bill was $28. I find this insane. I get that we're in the Hamptons but the ice cream wasn't even that good, mediocre at best. The place also had a horrible smell to it. Old, dingy and smelled like a public restroom. read more

Bridgehampton Candy Kitchen - an ice cream sundae with sprinkles - Diners Near Me - Bridgehampton, New York

Enjoyed lunch in this venue from yesteryear, with legit counter service. Comfortable booth, seated promptly, and friendly greeting from Mauricio, a fantastic server (see photo) -- who made excellent recommendations. Souvlaki in a pita was fresh tasting, loaded with tender, well-seasoned chicken, and a greek salad with soft feta cheese. I also had lentil soup, served at a proper (hot) temperature. Yum! Everyone enjoyed their meal. Coffee chip ice cream cone for desert was homemade deliciousness in a sugar cone. And, one of my friends had a root beer float that looked fantastic, and he really enjoyed it. Wonderful lunch. Ignore the grumpy and negative reviews. Good value for the Hamptons in my opinion. read more

I had the Candy Kitchen Salad and enjoyed it very much. I needed something light and if it the spot. I also had the strawberry milk shake but had it with skim milk and it was amazing. Tasty and the strawberry ice cream was delicious. My friend had the banana shake with skim milk and fresh bananas. That was really really good!!! read more

From the time I walked into the restaurant I felt at home. Lovely waitress with a wonderful smile, and great attitude. Lunch was served and it was delicious unfortunately I can't have a malted , sugar is not my friend. I had a turkey club and June had a salad which were great. I highly recommend this treasure tucked away in Brigehampton. read more

Perfect place for a bite, but more importantly for the ice cream. It was up there, top three ever for me. You can dine in with warm and patient service. They have enough staff, and are very nice to you. Having left Montauk where it seems the town gave up, it was a pleasure and a joy to have such a perfect experience at Candy Kitchen in Bridgehampton. read more

Bridgehampton Candy Kitchen - Pistachio ice cream. Wow. That was a small for like $5. Yummmmm. - Diners Near Me - Bridgehampton, New York

Solid diner experience at the Candy Kitchen. Noticed at least a few regulars come through, so nice to see it's a spot that locals enjoy as well as tourists. The coffee was hot, the BLT was crunchy, and the sundae was lovely in its old-fashioned sundae glass. read more

It was pretty good. I had peppermint and it was very tasty, though a little icy. I'll cut them some slack since it's not only the off-season, but middle of winter too. It's an adorable place, olde-timey with a soda fountain counter and charming walk-up window. I'll definitely come back when the weather is warmer and try again. read more

$7 ice cream cones tasted like freezer. Two different flavors. Didn't realize until after we were in our car driving, otherwise would have gone back. Off-season, early May. Wouldn't be surprised if they were made last summer and kept in storage. That's what they tasted like. Very disappointed after reading all the hype. read more

4 stars for the lovely staff and delicious house made Ice cream! But sadly 3 stars for the food... So really a 3.5 for my overall experience. Food is mediocre so don't bother thinking you'll have lunch here and then the ice cream... Just go with the ice cream. read more

I have fond memories of this place as a child. The pistachio ice cream is to die for! My favorite memory is when my father sat me down at the age of 7 and promised me that I would one day become CEO of the family company. I'm still working on that, but I like to visit from time to time and have an ice cream and stare longingly into the sunset thinking of what my life has become. read more

Came here on a very cold day right after getting off the bus - it's super convenient across the street from the BH drop off location. I always thought this spot was only ice cream so was pleasantly surprised to find out that they have a full diner menu with a lot of Mediterranean options. I opted for the chicken salad over lettuce, my husband got the pastrami and eggs and my parents for the beef gyro. Mine was a very large portion so I took home leftovers but it definitely hit the spot. My husbands pastrami and eggs was a surprisingly small portion compared to the rest of our plates but he said it was delicious nonetheless. Next time I want to get the gyro! I didn't realize how large this place is! I always thought it was tiny but it has a huge back dining room! Also - cash only but they have an ATM up front. read more

A down home old candy store/luncheonette with its typical diverse menu, reasonable (non-Hampton) prices and all the charm you remember as a kid. A counter, rotating stools, booths, candy and ice cream complete the childhood culinary symphony. Try it and enjoy. read more

Best best anything ice cream. And egg creams. And the famous Gus usually there. A nostalgic treat and a half

Fun place with decent food and old school atmosphere. I love counter service and a good sandwich.

The Candy Kitchen is the gold standard for breakfast and lunch in Bridgehampton . The owner of Gus is always on hand and it will ensure you have a great meal. This old-school Greek diner/ice cream parlor is not to be missed.The breakfasts are just amazing. Eggs done to perfection, delicious omelettes. Pancakes and waffles are a specialty . if you want the best Greek salad in the Hamptons and probably Long Island I suggest you have it there. with or without chicken it is a meal in itself served with pita bread. order a side of the homemade Tazaki to go with your salad. Sandwiches, burgers , chili are all first rate . The owner Gus ensures that you will have great service. The friendly staff will attend to all your needs . Just bring cash , no credit cards. Make sure if you're in the Bridgehampton area to stop in the Candy kitchen. read more

Love the Bridgehampton Candy Kitchen. Great Broadway Soda, cheeseburger and chocolate chip ice cream - with sprinkles!

The ice cream here is delicious!! Highly recommend coming here during summer!! The best!!

Very good ice cream! I've seen this place so many times of my years coming out here and always wanted to go. Staying at topping rose I sent my hubs right over after dinner to get us some shakes :) So delicious. Cash only. Adorable inside (from pictures I made him take lol) read more

A good ice cream shoppe, I can see why it's iconic. It brings me back to Greek diner roots, especially seeing the soup of the day, "chicken orzo." They make great sundaes and their ice cream is delicious. They were out of cherry vanilla, but the pistachio and mint chip was dynamite. I will return, thank you for the food memory! read more

Cute little place with lots of doors. Inside is classically painted white and blue. Has a retro/nautical vibe. I had the Manhattan clam chowder which was ok and then lobster over a tossed salad. The salad was bland so I added hot sauce but the lobster was very delicious. I highly recommend! Our waiter was very attentive and had a big grin on his face while serving us the entire time, so no complaints there! Just need to actually try the ice cream next time read more

The Candy Kitchen is a dependable diner in an area without many affordable places to eat out. I really enjoy a stress-free eating experience in Bridgehampton. It's also a joyful, classic ice cream experience. Dropping by a cute old-style candy counter for some really high quality ice cream is such a joy. It's locally owned and family-run by people who love to be there. read more

Good food, but we placed a huge office lunch order, and half of the order was wrong. Woman who took the order was not pleasant either.

My ice cream was delicious thanks the young lady that works behind the counter was craving coconut and pineapple help me make my mind up so I got the coconut mix with marshmallow chocolate ugh if I'm in that area I'll pick up some more goods thank you read more

Got a pistachio cone here, generous serving size for the area, and it had a creamy, mild flavor. There were fluorescent green stringy things present in the ice cream in addition to pistachio chunks, so I was slightly put off by that. But a cute place with decent prices and friendly service, a nice spot to get a scoop. Cash only but they have an ATM inside. read more

Decent ice cream. I had the mint chocolate chip and it was good but it had that green tint, which means they dye it. I'd say it's akin to Breyers. Also, it was a little pricey, but you definitely get a lot so I'd say it's worth it. Friendly service. Cash only. read more

So this is right off the jitney stop in Bridgehampton. I was not too impressed by this place. The service was a bit snarky, but in the end we got what we asked for. The food was all just OK. The chocolate pancakes were fine, but not as good as one would have expected. The french toast was also just OK. Coffee was bottomless. The ambience is better in the front room. A more classic diner feel. read more

TL;DR: Nothing earth shattering here. Cash only. Homey food. Lots of kids. (shrug) If you like diners, it's fine. Shoulda got ice cream. Anyway, we rode the bike out to the Hamptons today because it was the first bit of nice weather we've had. We remembered that our first experience at Candy Kitchen wasn't bad (ages ago, we brought the parents out to Montauk and we saw Ina Garten eating here, pretty neato), so we gave it another go. 11:30ish on a Sunday and there was no wait for a party of two; we were seated in the back room, which seems to be where they seat everyone that has kids. So, beware if you don't like kids. (Didn't bother us, just throwing it out there in case you want a more quiet dining experience..) Service was okay- waitress was friendly, and got to us fast initially, but once our food was dropped we never saw her again until we asked for our check. We both opted for lunch- Picky Pete got chicken souvlaki with pita and greek salad. The chicken was "just okay" (no further details, I asked..) but he reported that the salad dressing was fantastic. I agree that it was because since he's picky, I got to eat all the olives off of his salad. I got a chicken salad sammich and a cup of chicken orzo soup. The soup was homey. And by homey, I mean bland. It was fixed by saltines and salt. But it was warm and I was hungry. My sandwich though was good- adequate pile of chicken salad, nicely toasted bread, and they even put mayo on the toast to keep it moist- nice move. Served with a pickle. That's all she wrote. Two sodas, cup o' soup, sammich, and his salad/souvlaki plate- $35 before tip. Shoulda got ice cream.... read more

Terrifying! Is it 1950 or 2018? Nothing edible on the menu! I don't think. They've ever heard the word vegan. Yikes! read more

A cute classic diner establishment that we stumbled upon an afternoon adventure. We enjoyed our ritual of afternoon ice cream, ordering the chocolate for my wife. I couldn't decide between the peach or blueberry, so they said I should just put both together! Brilliant :) Wonderful staff, makes the place warm and inviting. Tasty ice cream in a nice throwback stools-at-the-counter joint. For some reason the chocolate tasted underwhelming and not homemade (too sweet/processed), but the others tasted more creamy and authentic to their original fruit. Oh Hamptons prices never cease to frustrate me, but a fun afternoon snack break nonetheless :) read more

The ice cream is not the issue. The ice cream is wonderful and home made but how the workers treated us made us feel like we were bothering them and then they turned off the light when we were still eating because they were closing. It's so sad that a place that's been around so long has become like this. I was so excited to take my daughter and now will never go back. read more

Didnt let my 4 year old try a little bit of the ice cream. Just plain wrong and will not come back.

The service is amazing! The atmosphere is relaxing and welcoming. They have an incredibly personable staff and owners...totally family friendly. The ice cream is the best around, and the huge selection food is very well priced, large portions and delicious...my absolute favorite!! read more

Damn their cute old fashioned signage! Yeah, we too, fell for that nostalgic Main-Street-Disneyland-ice-cream-parlor-look. This was such a disappointment all around from their weird, awkward customer service (if you wanna call it that), to the dirty, unkept condition of the interior, to the false promise of it being a "candy kitchen" as advertised in the window aaaaaaaand of their terrible "homemade" ice cream. First off, being old school is awesome, but that doesn't mean you don't have to clean or dust, EVER. It's seriously gross inside. I didn't want to touch or sit on anything since it looks like the last time anyone had taken a mop or rag to the place was during prohibition. Second, there was no candy being made or any traces of a kitchen producing any such thing. I was expecting a white-haired old lady in a bonnet and ruffle apron stretching taffy or rolling truffles or heck, dipping strawberries in chocolate. But no. Their candy selection was in the form of boxed and packaged name brands like m&ms, skittles, and wrigleys spearmint gum. Was this a joke?! Not only was that a total tease, but the store-bought selection was super sh-tty. This place makes 7-11 look like Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory. Thirdly... The ice cream situation. Not happening folks. Maybe it's because we came during the slow season before summer officially hit, but the ice cream had not been freshly made... In probably months! Now, I'm not unreasonable... I understand that if business is slow, it doesn't make sense to make new batches of multiple flavors daily when it's barely selling. I get it, nor do I expect it. But when the ice cream literally has ice on it and is freezer burned, it should not be given to customers or any human for that matter. They take this 'old' vibe a little too seriously. It's unfortunate, considering their long list of flavors is pretty exciting. I got banana and once I got past the fuzzy icy parts, the flavor was actually good. The customer service was also a joke. Totally unprofessional, half-ass, and they could not care less. Two of the employees sat at the countertop, shooting the breeze and we're not in any sort of uniform... Did they even work here? I was skeptical giving the guy my cash when he finally got off his lazy butt to scoop our garbage and ring us up. If I worked in a ice cream/ candy shop, I would be high off sugar and super friendly and jolly. Then again, this place isn't exactly either of those things. Bottom line- this place is an old ass, dirty diner (I would NEVER order food here!) with second rate employees and disappointing ice cream. Oh yeah, and no candy! Boo! read more

This place is so overrated. Granted the French toast had good flavor, but it was three tiny pieces of bread that were thinner than an 17 year old super model wannabe. And now let's talk about that server. She was bitchier than a 17 year old super model wannabe! My wife, who is not a native English speaker (but excellent in English) asked a few questions because she didn't hear the options, and this girls response was so rude! I'm kinda glad she disappeared for about an hour after the food was served so we didn't have to deal with the 'tude she was spewing. read more

Loved this place! Step back in time and just occasionally look around...I felt like I was going to see Michael J. Fox walk thru the doors, just like he did in "Back to the Future." I've been here for breakfast and "just a taste" of their ice cream after lunch across the street. That "taste" turned out to be 3 different scoops later! The homemade ice cream was AWESOME! Stop and enjoy this special local joint and indulge your childhood appetite, this place is worth every cent and calorie. read more
