Hampton Coffee Company
Irish eyes are smiling at Hampton Coffee Company this month! The local espresso bar and café is celebrating St. Patrick's Day throughout March with two specially-themed beverages. Their delicious Leprechaun Latte tastes like chocolate mint and Irish Crème-flavored coffee will definitely put the Irish Jig in your step. Both beverages are available every day throughout the month of March at Hampton Coffee Company's cafés on Mill Road in Westhampton Beach and Montauk Highway in Water Mill. Plus, enjoy free samples of the Irish Crème coffee every morning until lunchtime. In addition, if you're coming down to watch Westhampton Beach's famous St. Patrick's Day Parade on Saturday, March 13, be sure to stop in at Hampton Coffee Company in Westhampton Beach, right on the parade route. Owner Theresa Belkin (who is really from Ireland!) will have plenty of Irish Crème coffee brewing to take the chill off plus special Green & White Cookies and a melt-in-your mouth Corned Beef Reuben Melt. Corned Beef topped with sauerkraut, Swiss Cheese, and Thousand Island Dressing. Served warm and melty!

Hampton Coffee Company is located at 194 Mill Road in Westhampton Beach, on the Six Corners Roundabout, at Bridgehampton National Bank, across from Village Hall, and at 869 Montauk Highway in Water Mill, next to The Green Thumb Farmstand. Both cafés are open every day all year from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. Visit www.hamptoncoffeecompany.com for more details.
