Southdown Coffee - Port Jefferson

Doing more than the usual pot of drip, or sweetened-dairy drinks for the masses, this is a coffee shop that can do (in this case automated) Hario V60 pour overs for those looking for a really tasty cup of black coffee. I enjoyed talking coffee with the staff on both visits. The food: I had the savory and filling bacon-egg-cheese sandwich on ciabatta on my first visit and a pretty decent blueberry muffin on my second. If (when) the fancy machine flakes out, it sounds like the staff know how to do proper hand pours if needed. Great selection of coffees to try. I enjoyed the Konga Ethiopian , and then the Abocamba Peruvian on my next visit when back in town.

One of my favorite Long Island cafes! Excellent drinks... hot and cold. The sandwiches are a bit pricey, but savory. The service could be friendlier... they know me at the Port Jefferson shop, but they don't say hello and chat too much. The shop is always clean and warm. Delicious!! I will keep coming back!

I got the strawberry matcha latte and cucumber slices w/humus. Both were made really well, the cucumber slices were crunchy and fresh, the latte was great as usual. The atmosphere is always inviting and the staff are friendly. Prices are decent and service was fast.

This is one of my favorite breakfast spots! Food ranges from good to exceptional, but their pastries can be hit or miss. Drinks are consistently good in my opinion, my girlfriend is not a fan of their iced coffee which she thinks can be inconsistent. What keeps us coming back is the famous egg sandwich which is pickled to perfection and oh so yum! I don’t think they have enough tables and maybe would benefit from eliminating one or two of the benches to add 2-3 more tables…like a typical coffee house a lot of people seem to work from there and can linger for hours. Service is great. Parking can be tricky when it’s busy, there is a shared lot but it can fill up quickly.

Good menu, nice staff and good food. I had the avocado pesto grilled cheese and iced herbal tea that was fruity. I really liked it but think it would be even better with tomato butter on it. My best friend had the bacon egg and cheese sandwich and maple latte. Had a bite of hers and def recommend that egg sandwich!
