Lynn and I were starving and in a hurry to catch our Ferry ride in Orient, NY with not enough time to sit down and have a meal and the prospects of food on the Cross Sound Ferry not 100% appealing. We took a gamble and lucked into a anachronistic gem of a place a couple of miles from the Ferry called the Orient Country Store. We ducked in for a quick bite and Lynn was blown away by the succulent Reuben perfect comfort food with the temperature in the single digits.
The atmosphere was relaxed and folksy (not an automatic default on Long Island) the owners and staff very warm and generous. We are glad to have a pit stop for our frequent Ferry journeys or trips to the North Fork of Long Island.
