The Golden Pear Café – the Hamptons

July 30, 2011

This casual little café is as good today as it was when I had my first turkey, brie, and honey mustard sandwich (”the Southampton”) over a decade ago.  With locations in four of the Hamptons main villages–Southampton, Bridgehampton, East Hampton, and Sag Harbor–The Golden Pear is the perfect stop for breakfast or lunch before heading [...]
