Starbucks in Long Island



PUT DOWN THE PLASTIC



PLEASE NOTE
The stores pictured below are labeled with information that comes directly from the official Starbucks web site. The only alterations I have made are to remove certain punctuation marks. Please report any naming errors directly to Starbucks. Once they fix the error on their end, my database will pick it up. However, if you know any of the opening/closing dates I am missing, please send them to me.

Bridgehampton Village, Bridgehampton

OPENED: ?, PHOTO: ?

Although built inside a former bank, this Starbucks does not use the vault as a conference room. Still there is plenty of seating available, with chairs and tables and couches arranged in an menagerie of older and newer styles. I spotted some wicker chairs in an elevated seating area in the back of the store, but could not tell whether they were unique to the store, or a more obscure corporate design.

Back in front, a small safe sits curiously in near a corner. And in several corners are lamps with decorative shades. Curtains decorate the windows throughout the store, and a large mirror adds a homey feel to the place.

Oh, since I'm from Texas, one item puzzled me--it turned out to be a coat rack.

This store has something extremely unusual just outside the bathrooms--a faucet with a deep ceramic bowl. I was told it was not a pre-existing fixture, so I wonder what it is for.

The Hamptons' third Starbucks deserves attention, not just for being situated in a cute little building on a quaint little main street, but also for its mere existence in this part of Long Island that I hear tends to resist large chains.

I was yet again puzzled by the glass partitions, one at the front door and one a the back. The baristas weren't able to tell me if they were to block the wind, or perhaps for some other insidious purpose. Hmmm...


Glen Cove

Glen Cove's downtown is neat enough, but the prohibition on u-turns made it a pain to reach this store. It was worth it, though--I love this picture window.

It took Starbucks a long time to reach the North Fork communities, but they did it in grand style with this spacious and decorative location. Make sure to look for the photographs of the area spread throughout.

Check out that funky building! From outside it looks like a greenhouse, but from inside it looks like it might have been a train car, except for the brick walls and odd shape.

This second store out on towards the eastern end of Long Island is pretty, but not nearly as large as the Bridgehampton store.

This store had something sad on it's community board, a photo of a missing person, a man in his 70s.

Oh, and just to be clear, the tiled red roof and ornate towers belong to the church behind the Starbucks, not the Starbucks itself.

I found it amusing that this store is located on Wall Street--the other Wall Street, that is. But more interesting is the art project on display, siren logo composed of egg shells, put together by the talented barista Darlene.

Long Beach

Pork may have the distinction of being the other white meat, and I guess this little community has the distinction of being the other Long Beach, perhaps less well known than the west coast spot immortalized, along with Compton, by Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre. But I digress.

This split-level store has the most diverse collection of art on the walls I've seen to date, from paintings to photos to 3D pieces. There's even stained glass on the windows that I'm not sure is art of decoration.

Like Harry Potter can speak to snakes, I can speak to Starbucks, and this one tells me it feels soooooo left out to be excluded from the store locator.


Massapequa Village Square, Massapequa

OPENED: ?, PHOTO: ?

Plenty of Starbucks offer live music on a regular basis, but this is the first location I can recall that features a magic show.


Southgate, Massapequa

Instead of works from local artists, this store displays paintings from some guys named Picasso and Van Gogh. I don't thinkt they are from Long Island. And I don't think the paintings are the originals. I also noticed a large table in a style I did not recognize.

From the facade you might guess a bland strip mall store, but the long brick wall gives this store a nice touch.

Melville

Yet another store featuring the partition/bench that for some reason intrigues me so much. Should I sit on it? Should I walk around it? I just can't decide!


Merrick

Besides displaying some neat caricatures, the same type displayed at Rockeville Center, this store also offers psychic palm and tarot card readings and also chair massage.

This nifty building looks like it might have been old, but it was actually built new for the Starbucks. The store has a drive-thru lane, but there is also a second lane that belongs to the bank.

Rockville Center

This location has a back door leading out to a back parking area, and next to that door is a private little seating area not visible from the front. There's a cool piece of art on display, a caricature of two Starbucks customers (or perhaps partners).

Or maybe not. Word is the store has been remodeled.


Roslyn Heights

This store fooled me--it's larger than it appears from outside. According to the manager, it surprises the customers too. And oh, what customers! I spent maybe thirty minutes here, and it was a veritable fashion show of girls in workout clothes, and some outfits that surely would have gotten them sent to the principal's office (at least at my high school).

This store benefits from four sets of doors to throw open on a beautiful summer day.

As soon as I entered, I thought this store unusually large for a small community in eastern Long Island. A barista confirmed that it was just a coincidence that the existing space was so large, but that the store did fill up occasionally.

Anyhow, I'd like to give a shout out to that lady in the Dallas Cowboys jacket that wasn't clear on the concept of a drive-thru store. She apparently didn't realize that you should stay IN the car and drive around to to the window, rather than leaving it parked (and running) right in front of the door, in the drive-thru lane. Some people! I should have parked it properly for her.
