Patchogue may be a small village, but that doesn't stop it from having a lively, bustling atmosphere. Patchogue residents spend their days shopping, eating at renowned restaurants, and attending amazing events held in town. At any time of day or year, you can find something fun to do in the small village.
Dining, Entertainment & Shopping
Everyone likes to find excellent restaurants when they’re out and about. Fortunately, Patchogue is home to some pretty great places! One example of these restaurants is Lombardi's on the Bay. It's an upscale steakhouse in the village focusing on Italian-style cuisine. The coolest thing about Lombardi's might be its tiered deck that allows patrons to look over the bay. You get a great view paired with delicious food!
If a pub is more your style, then try out James Joyce. It's an Irish restaurant in Patchogue that offers excellent food, draft beer, and cocktails, with a cozy interior. Their interior is arguably one of the most beautiful in the village, so that alone often attracts people to the restaurant. Another restaurant with a great bar is Perabell, an eatery that offers globally inspired dishes instead of just Irish.
Try out some of the Caribbean food offered at Rhum if you have the chance. As the name might imply, they serve many rum-based drinks. This restaurant also has a rooftop deck you can choose to eat on. Or, if you're a seafood lover, you could visit The Oar. Instead of a rooftop deck to eat on, they have dockside seating. The Oar also has live music every week for customers to enjoy while they dine!
