North Fork Table & Inn

Top choice in Long Island


A favorite foodies' escape, this four-room inn (rooms from $250) has an excellent farm-to-table restaurant, run by alums of the esteemed Manhattan restaurant Gramercy Tavern. Dinner is served nightly (along with weekend brunch), but if you're hankering for a gourmand-to-go lunch ($5.50 to $21), the inn's food truck is parked outside Friday to Monday from 11:30am to 3:30pm (daily July and August).
