Locals has easily become one of my favorite places to eat on LI. I have had many of the dishes on the menu. The breakfast menu is amazing. The egg white frittata is my absolute favorite. So much flavor and colors and such a beautiful presentation. The bacon cheeseburger is amazing. The fajita wrap is extremely tasty. The Avacado toast is perfection. But my absolute favorite is the garden salad with grilled salmon. So simple yet so flavorful. The vegetables are so fresh. The salmon is always cooked to perfection with amazing spices grilled into it. I have truly never had a meal from Locals that I didn't love. I also have to mention their amazing unsweetened iced tea, which is so rich with flavor. The treat case, or the case in front with all the yummy desserts, is excellent. They have choices for everyone, including vegans! I absolutely adore this place and the owner is insanely nice and so accommodating! Please try this place and I promise you'll enjoy every bite!
The best coffee shop on the north shore of Long Island hands down! Phenomenal homemade food ftom scratch, vegetarian friendly and a café mocha to write home about and pastries to die for. The gourmet donuts and almond croissants? Like you've died and gone to dessert heaven! Made by a local baker in town. The owners are the sweetest people and everyone who works with them are lovely, friendly outgoing people. I LOVE Local's!!!
Found this gem today while walking around and decided to stop in for lunch. Tried the salmon pita with coleslaw. The pita itself seemed like it had been made that day - so warm and soft. The salmon was fresh, and seasoned nicely with a bit of crisp to the skin. The coleslaw was the best I've ever had. No dairy in it, just vinegar based. The mustard seeds were an excellent touch. The staff was very nice and helpful. Considering the reviews of the breakfast/coffee, I'll have to stop by some morning. But this cafe is definitely a new favorite that I'll be frequenting!
I am so in love with Local's Cafe! I had the Avocado Tomato Salad and it was incredible! As a local employee down port, I introduced my staff to some of the Local's menu selection as well and they found it to be incredibly delicious. The staff was so incredible in completing my order in a timely fashion. One employee in particular, John, was so kind, welcoming, and friendly! The establishment is truly incredible and I would urge all to try the amazing menu selections. Local's Cafe will for sure be my number one lunch spot while on the clock as well as a relaxing place by the water to bring family and friends on my days off.

Excited about Locals cafe.. how did I not know about it!! My daughter I went for lunch... the sweet quinoa salad was amazing.. my matcha latte with coconut milk is amazing, Heather had the vegetarian sandwich and toast with goat cheese and honey!! All so good and the staff was very nice and kind! I can't wait to go back and try other things, like their homemade KombuchA , beet latte and a host of eclectic foods! Of we shared a vegan matcha cupcake!
Finally! A great little cafe that serves excellent coffee and healthy food! We've been needing this little gem for a long, long time. A cozy place to meet friends for breakfast and/or lunch or catch up over a quick cappuccino - NYC style - it's GOOD coffee! Thank you, Local's, for opening in Port Jefferson! SO happy you are here. :)
Great service, awesome food, terrific coffee. Food was fresh and portion was right on the money. My new favorite!!!!
The food is fresh and delicious and the coffee can not be beat (I recommend the Pacnor - YUM!)
Great place~ friendly-food delicious. Been there many times~ always excellent!!!
A delicious menu offering a variety of absolutely great tasting,healthy assortment of dishes! Try the burger or the vegan dishes!
Understated decor, delicious food, artistic presentation, amazing coffee and courteous service! We loved it!
I live in Queens but have to go to Port Jefferson every week and it's non negotiable that I stop into Locals for my matcha latte! I've been ordering these everywhere in Queens trying to find one as good, no luck! Guess I have to keep going back to locals!
Amazing!!! I wanna go back, best coffee and food from a small haha local cafe!
Love the food, Love the coffee & the people are great! What else can you ask for? Oh yes, great beers & wine. It's nice to be local
Great local spot where almost anything on the menu can be made GF. The food is made with really fresh ingredients. The coffee is excellent, and they have a good selection of teas and homemade brewed iced teas. It's well paced for each time of day so you're not waiting too long and also not feeling rushed. There's typically seating available although the small outdoor deck can fill up on a warm weekend day.
I go to locals super frequently. The best vegan items on the menu are the veggie burger with the home sauce, and the tofu bhurji. I have been coming here for over 5 years and everything is always on point. The owner is a really nice and sweet guy, he seems to always try to be friendly with his customers. 10/10
The food was awesome!! Great serving sizes and delicious!! The atmosphere was a little noisy but not loud. The service was quick and friendly! You order at counter and they bring your food to you. Decor was simple and industrial..... concrete floors. Attire is very relaxed. Nice place to gather with friends and grab a quick bite.
Lovely place to read or catch up on work in the early mornings. I'll drive 26 mins just to have breakfast and coffee by the water before the afternoon on days I have off. The food, coffee, and service are always great!
Cool place for a quick coffee without the usual sugary siren or watery DD. Staff is nice and cool and it's a great option if you are waiting for the Port Jefferson Ferry.
Coffee and sandwiches are delicious and made with care, plus this is a nice place to work / meet up with someone. Especially recommend the bacon chicken sandwich.
A little off the main area, but well worth the walk! The cappuccino is so smooth and delicious. Cannot resist getting one everytime I'm down port! Also if you are looking for something a little stronger, they have a very nice section of craft beer as well. The food is good as well. Definitely check it out.
Cute, modern atmosphere. Food is always fresh and their menu caters to vegans and vegetarians as well as omnivores. If it's a nice day I highly recommend sitting outside to people (and dog!) watch while you eat.
The service was friendly and fast and the food was good. Plus, it was practically inside our building of the hotel where we were staying. Being close was a big plus for us after our crazy drive. Very good food! I'd eat there again.
It was so good I had to get a second drink to go.
Our favorite local spot. Excellent food and local kombucha! Caters to vegetarians, vegans and organic eating. Healthy food that tastes like heaven. Try the turmeric latte!
Atmosphere and employees 5 stars as well 🌟
Great food, coffee, and service even on a packed morning before the 4th of July parade. Amazing how one women can work so fast and efficiently and always with a smile!
Best iced coffee 🤍 I get the iced coffee with oat milk and maple syrup.
Wonderful atmosphere. Coming here with a friend, family or on one's own is fantastic. The food is fresh and delicious, many excellent teas and coffee. The service is great, very kind and highly attentive to quality and to comfort. Tito loved it too 🐶☕🍔

Great coffee, staff, and space. The food is good for the most part, but the service is soul crushingly slow. I have routinely waited over 40 minutes for a chicken sandwich when the place was relatively empty. Bear that in mind when you are in a rush. The coffee comes out quickly, however. Definitely one of the best places to hang out in Port Jefferson so if you're in town give it a shot! Also, this place definitely passes the cappuccino test (it's very good).
Great coffee, comfy seats, quiet area and plenty of outlets. I'll be adding this spot to the rotation.
Stopped in for a really tasty brunch Saturday of the Dickens Festival. The food was all good and so was the coffee. I definitely recommend the “Bumble” (orange juice + espresso).
Really enjoyed coming to locals these past couple of months! The staff are all super nice and I enjoy talking to them!
Fantastic food and coffee. The mocha is one of my favs, super flavorful without being over shadowed by the sweetness. The pancakes are also really good and surprisingly unique, which is hard to do with something so simple. 👍
