    Chopped cheese
    Jessica O.

    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.

    Korean Fried Chicken Sandwich

    *"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.

    Me and my girls went out for my birthday dinner and this place was amazing! Shout out to my server Taylor M! She was so attentive and made sure our drinks were always filled and our bellies were happy! It is a perfect spot for a date night, birthday celebration and great for kids! It's hard to find a restaurant in Patchogue that gives the energy of a bar yet child friendly!! I got the steak and frites and it was cooked perfectly! The prices are reasonable! At the end of our time our waitress gave me a birthday bag that had goodies in it! I felt so special! I recommend going and will rate standard rec 10/10 the vibes are vibing and I hope it stays around the Patchogue strip for a while!!

    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 .
    Antionette B.

    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)
    Meri L.

    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.

Overall - 3/5 - did just about everything right except the food. Service was great. Waitress was very friendly, gave recommendations, and fun to have around. Inside of restaurant had a cool vibe and was nice to be in. Rooftop was awesome and the highlight. Unfortunately the food fell short. For the price, it was pretty lacking in taste. Portion were ok but the food was all pretty lackluster. Mussels had curry in them but could barely taste it. Tacos were pretty bland. The drinks barely had alcohol in them? They tasted fine but had 2 drinks and barely felt a thing (I know my tolerance). Unfortunate on the food when it came to here. Likely would not return. Best Dish - None to note Would Return - Probably not

After dinner, I approached the gentleman collecting the entrance fee to ask what time the fee begins and whether it applies to guests and families who are coming specifically for dinner. He informed me that there is no set time for collecting the fee and that it is entirely at his discretion. I respectfully asked him to clarify how that policy is determined, but he refused to provide an explanation. When I asked for his name, he responded that he "doesn't have one" and immediately ignored me, turning his attention to the next customer approaching the entrance. I found this interaction to be extremely unprofessional and discourteous. My concern is less about the entrance fee itself and more about the lack of transparency and the dismissive manner in which my questions were handled. Customers should be treated with respect when asking reasonable questions about a business's policies. Since he refused to identify himself, I have attached a photo of the individual. Because of this experience, I intend to share my concerns with management. Unfortunately, this interaction has left a very negative impression, and I do not plan on returning.

    So 2026 did not come in hot for me. My little romances with Italian Mr. Big and my half-Italian…read moreAiden? Yeah... both fizzled. On top of that, my damn car decided to up and die, so I've been bleeding money on Ubers just to get to and from work. I even had to go into work on my day off just to sit around waiting for the tow truck so they could junk it. Love that for me. After I handled business with the junkers, I said eff it and headed to Whiskey Neat. I was starving--no breakfast, running on fumes--and since my job's in Patchogue, I figured I'd finally try them for lunch. First of all... happy hour on a Saturday from 12-6?! Uhhh hello?? In my Angelina from Jersey Shore voice. And if you pay cash, you get the discount. Say less. They've got a fabulous small plates menu. I started with the French onion soup--ooey gooey mozzarella, cheese pull was undefeated. Soup was delicious too. I haven't had French onion in ages and it really hit. Then I had the pulled pork slider, which was really good, but BABY... those short rib croquettes? To. Die. For. I also had to get my classic deviled eggs. A little heavy-handed on the paprika, but still solid. Drinks were half off, so of course I indulged. Started with an espresso martini because I needed something to jumpstart my day. Then I had a French martini because duh--I'm a French girl ‍. That one was good. Finished with my classic cosmo. Not gonna lie, I've had better, but it did what it needed to do and helped me forget my troubles for a couple hours. Also great playlist of music. I got there and they were playing Ska. Love me some Reel Big Fish and No Doubt. Mixed with some Motown and Bob Marley. Made me remember the good old days.

    When in search of a place that would make my family of picky eaters happy (ie: a vegan, a…read morevegetarian, a traditionalist, and two that try to make the other three happy but like good food), WhiskeyNeat appeared like a gods-send on Yelp. I've been to Main Street Patchogue a few times before and I'm always amazed at how it's now like Huntington, with tons of eateries, bars and places to hear live music. It was a busy late Spring Friday night and my cousin told me if we were there just two weeks later (ie, post Memorial Day), there would have been lines to get in anywhere. So make resos! I made one easily earlier that day and when we arrived around 7:30, it was not packed, but it is pretty loud in there even half full. Our waiter, Jonathan, expertly took such great care of us from start to finish, even taking my father's dad jokes in stride. There's a solid cocktail menu, but I had a couple glasses of a better-than-decent prosecco. My cousin loved his espresso martini. For food, count on a couple respectable vegan entrees and I went with the Japanese eggplant with cashew ricotta. The eggplant is delicious, slightly sweet with a creamy rather than chewy (thank god) texture. The cashew ricotta is also tasty, but I do think it needed to be blended a bit more to remove the slightly grainy texture (the cashews might have needed more soaking). My father loved his French onion soup and pastrami sandwich. Separate paragraph for the fries. They deserve it. I'm glad we ordered these to share- it's an enormous platter of them. I appreciated that they were salted perfectly. I appreciate restaurants that can make satisfy a variety of preferences and dietary restrictions. The vibe here is festive and vibrant and a great choice for groups and families.
