    Walking into the former Public House was WILD! It literally caused a flashback of me dancing right where the Pac Man machine was about 20 years ago. We walked in to grab a night cap at the bar after our amazing concert at the Patchogue theater. Only to find ourselves in the middle of a Love Island watch party. The energy was tense, but the vibes at the bar were chill. I had a blueberry mule, while we chatted with the bartender at the bar. He crushed my drink and it was very refreshing. I would come back to see what they have to offer for sure. The vibes looked fun so why not?

    We were looking for a kid friendly place for a Friday night dinner so we figured we would give Standard Rec a try. It is definitely kid friendly and there were a lot of families so we felt right at home. Our server was very friendly and the place has a cool vibe although the furniture was uncomfortable and the table was too small to be really able to play a game and also have food on the table. We were a little underwhelmed by the menu option but we were all able to find something to order. Our main issue is that our food across the board was pretty bland and the portions were small for the pricing. The breading on the kids chicken fingers was coming off when we tried to slice it and my mac and cheese desperately needed salt.

    *"The" best bartender I've had the pleasure to be served by, Joey Standard Rec, I've been patiently waiting to sample your finest! My friends, since Junior High no less have become, I'll be nice, more reserved. We all had a chance to go out and they all choice Ruth's Chris. Fun? Yes but I want a different vibe as I get older. It's Saturday night, gimme a cocktail! And a well crafted one as well. Looking at the cocktail menu, I see Standard Rec is mixing up some incredible drinks. My wife and I had a half day on Friday. I said let's grab a cocktail and lunch in Patchogue? I set the navigation system to Standard Rec. Walking up to the bar, I ask if we can sit here rather than a table. Not a problem sir. So far so good. I ask Joey the bartender to make this Gin Cocktail with Tanguay 10. He laughs and said we don't have that here but let me make you an off the menu cocktail, Bees Knees. We start talking about cocktails and he is a true mixologist. Very impressed so far. We started with the homemade fried mozzarella. Freshly made cheese in a tasty red sauce. This starter is amazing. Good for sharing, I highly recommend it. My lunch comes, my wife & I both ordered chicken sandwiches, I had the Korean Style chicken. Look at my picture: freshly baked ciabatta bread with chicken coated in Korean style sauce. Mmmm mm! My son said Standard Rec has a younger crowd on the weekends. Excuse me, my wife was Ms Pac Man champion in 1986! Young is a state of mind. Standard Rec, from the amazing cocktails to the great bar food, Keep rockin'!

    Great drinks, games and food looks great. We went for cocktails and games, but will definitely eat next time. The atmosphere is fun and casual. It's a large place so able to handle a crowd, bring all your friends. They have all kinds of games from board games to pinball to Jenga. They do host private parties as well. There was one going on while we were there and the food looked really nice. We were just coming in for drinks and to hang out a bit, but I will definitely keep them in mind for the next time as a great place to get a bite.

    This restaurant is so cute! It has a great atmosphere, adorable menu, and really friendly service. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because the chicken on top of our nachos was cold. Would like to return and try other items!

    My favorite patchogue spot. Drinks are fantastic, bao buns and disco fries are perfect. Trivia & drag brunches always a hit. My old lady back hates the chairs, but the vibe is worth it. Love it here.

    I cannot say enough about the brunch at standard rec!!! Obviously the first thing I have to say is that Ivy is absolutely amazing without her. I certainly wouldn't have gone for the brunch at all. But now that I have, I am hooked! The food is fantastic and you can't beat the Unlimited mimosas!!! A Great vibe and an amazing staff just make it the perfect time!

    Amazing food and drinks and such a cute ambience! Great place to go with a group of friends.

    This was the brunch menu they had .

    Great place to go for some food , drinks , the service was great . They have games if you like games to play . They also do drag shows which I went for and a time was had . If you never went to a drag show here and seen ivy stalls you are missing out on everything . This place is a must go .

    All kinds of amazing beverages including a disco ball cup!

    So good, ate here twice in 5 days! Saturday drag brunch with Ivy Stalls! For a one person show, she did it all, DJ, host, trivia, dance dayummm she was fabulous! Drinks were also amazing so many options and a special menu for the Lady Gaga theme! One of our friends went for the unlimited espresso martini, our waitress was on point as soon as one was almost finished we thought we'd have to call her over and she was already there with a new full glass in hand. That is what service should be! I also love how their menu has variations in it. Several moments later ... we came in for Taco Tuesday! Another unique menu to choose some specialty items from. All superb and as suggested from other Yelpers we had the general tso's cauliflower, zero disappointment. Note the Crunchwrap's are filling. Two of us ordered individually and both took a half home. As far as decor and ambiance I want to say it's retro, but really 90's themed with a touch of elegance. Check out the deep colors and pineapple wall paper.

    Chicken and waffles flatbread (special)

    Came here for lunch with my boyfriend. So glad we came! I've had my eye on this place for months! Now that we live within walking distance it was the go to for lunch today. It's a barcade! You can't go wrong. Good drinks, good food, old school games and good vibes! We walked in through the back and saw all old school games. Ahh nostalgia! We were greeted and sat by our waitress Stephanie. She was great! We started with a special as an appetizer; chicken and waffle flatbread. It was delicious! All the flavors worked very well together. For my meal I had the chicken pesto sandwich. Very yummy! My boyfriend ordered the big mozz burger. He enjoyed it. For drinks we had some pumpkin beers and an Ecto Cooler cocktail. The Ecto cooler tasted just like it did when we were kids! Our bill was brought out in an old blockbuster type box. We will be back!

    Yummy tap Old Fashioned.

    Not sure which was better the music (Matt Taylor) or the Manhattan by mixmaster/bartender Neil. Fantastic Friday Happy Hour.

Ordered Veggie?) on a basic burger roll with plain shredded red cabbage. The salad was bagged lettuce with a few blue berries, ugh!! I'm hungry, so I pry apart the burger roll and scrape some of the black bean burger onto my fork. Mush. Just mush. Ok, so now I want out. The waitress has ditched us, and this place is getting to me. I flag down the friendly bartender and ask for our check. Lo and behold, the waitress appears. Gives us the wrong check. Lawd... what a disaster of a meal.

I cannot rave enough about this establishment ...The food is amazing, always so fresh and made-to-order! The sourdough bread is so incredibly crusty and delicious, coming from my favorite Portuguese place in Farmingville. My husband said the French onion soup was the best he's ever had....Not to overlook the ambience, which is so welcoming and relaxing. This truly adds a nice touch to the overall dining experience. Stace and her daughter Katherine add so much love and life to this beautiful restaurant. We celebrated my sister's milestone birthday there last September in a cozy private room upstairs. It was beyond spectacular from beginning to end. We continue to return to Sunflower Cafe and Bakery quite often, and always have such a pleasant and warm experience! They also offer a wonderful weekend brunch menu on Sunday's with truly creative and delicious entrées. I believe they are approaching their 3 year anniversary in November, and it's not surprising that they are able to thrive and grow in such a tough economic environment. Run, don't walk to this INCREDIBLE restaurant. It's always such an amazing time for us both. Desserts are also so scrumptious as well, with the option to take home treats from the small bakery area if desired! Thanks to the entire staff for always treating us like family...Cannot wait to return very soon.
