Reviews for Hometown Cafe in East Islip, NY
It's a friendly environment and clean. Food is well prepared and fresh. Thank you fir a lovely experience in East Islip, LI.
Waked in on Saturday afternoon about 12:50. We sat down place was very empty. Waitress came by with dirty paper menus but fine... No big deal. She asked what we wanted to drink my wife asked her what type of teas do they have and she said unsweetened orSnapple. My wife asked if they were any flavor snapples she said no just regular ok then instead of asking or saying what typeof drinks they offer she said I?ll give you a few mins and walked away only taking my daughters drink order and mine. Mind youthe menu has no drinks on it. So after 4 mins she came back dropped off our drinks and left again. About 7 mins after that shetook our order it is not busy maybe 12 guest in total here. So we place our order and my wife asked for the regular Snapple icetea. She finally came back with it and a glass of ice. About 14 mins later our food came ok great. I ordered a simple grilledchicken sandwich but what was on the bun was the thinnest grilled chicken I have ever seen put it this way the slice of tomatowas thicker. My daughter orders chicken fingers and fries and the chicken was over cooked dried. My wife order the Phillycheesesteaks well one it had American cheese and too it was so watery and no flavor at all appears to be frozen slice meat notfresh. So to the point where my wife did not eat she it. You would think that someone would ask or say something since you havenot touched your food is something wrong nope not a single peep from our waitress. Took our bill paid and left never going backagain. I try to support local places but this is one I can not. Read more

My parents discovered this little gem when visiting me from NJ, and we absolutely love it! The blueberry pancakes(short stack)... are always our choice for breakfast, and you definitely don't want to finish dinner without a slice of pie(apple is one of ourfavorites). I love the meatloaf, too. The service has always been great when I have dined there, and I am so glad they are alsoon Door Dash so that I can continue to support them throughout the pandemic. I am thrilled to be a returning, happy customer,and I would definitely recommend this place to anyone! Read more
Love their fried rigatoni and they have a great grilled cheese with turkey and bacon. I went back a few days ago, I had egg in a... hole I believe its called white buttered toast with fried egg in the hole to get two and a side of breakfast sausage. The bestbreakfast I have ever seen. Delicious. Husband had his usual grilled cheese with turkey and bacon. Alson delicious Read more
One day I will move to New Hampshire, or Vermont, until then, when I want to have a local breakfast with my neighbors there is... our Hometown Cafe! A local breakfast (and lunch and dinner too) place for a quick bite to have a nice meal and hear the talk ofthe day! Prices are fair, food is good, service is friendly! Been coming here since Day 1 and to Poppy?s before then...stop by! Read more
