Stars Cafe

Amazing food, coffee, freshly baked cakes the list goes on. It’s always my first stop when i come onto the island and my last right before i get on the ferry. The staff are so welcoming and lovely to everyone that comes in with recommendations and a smile always. If you go anywhere on Shelter island it should be Stars Cafe- more so, you should visit Shelter Island just for Stars Cafe!

This beautiful spot is THE culinary highlight of Shelter Island. From breakfast burritos to burgers, to coffee and smoothies, this place can do it all and do it well. They are beyond welcoming and open to everyone that’s walks in. Since moving away I’ve missed their hospitality and food more than ever. So go in and have a try they are definitely worth it!!

Great espresso drinks and bagels. Had a cappuccino and then another time a macchiato. Husband had a latte. Everything bagel and cream cheese was very nice.
