The Springs General Store has been serving folks in the Springs community since 1844. It has always been a general store but back then it was also the post office and the only place to get news during the civil war.
Kristi Hood, a very experienced and gifted Chef and Pastry Chef, is the current owner and head chef. All the food here is homemade from scratch and will thoroughly satisfy whatever hunger from breakfast through dessert.
Outdoor seating is available at one of the multiple picnic tables in the yard or on the porch in a traditional rocker. Springs can save you a trip to town and provide you with most anything from basic household supplies to a custom made scrumptious cake baked by Kristi herself, who caters as well.
In the summer months a snug little farmstand adjacent to the store is chock full of fresh, local produce. Kayak rentals are also available from Spring through the fall if you prefer the scenery of Accabonac Harbor from the water.
Old Stone Market in Springs, formerly "Marty's" deli, has been in business since 2006. All of its prepared foods are homemade from scratch, including the Greek specialties reflecting the owner's heritage. Catering is available here, as well as a full deli, vegetarian-friendly soup, hot lunches and dinners, and a bakery. You can find groceries, too; Old Stone Market has all your basics covered and then some. There is also outdoor seating available at picnic tables.
After 50 years, Dreesen's Excelsior Market closed its doors, but the founder's son, Rudy DeSanti Jr. continues to make Dreesen's Famous Donuts and cater parties with his Italian cuisine. Dreesen's Catering has a kitchen in a brand new building, owned by the family, on Lumber Lane.
For the past 15 years, Dreesen's has offered full menu for brunch and dinner, including barbecue and a pasta station, and, of course, desserts. They also deliver prime meats and seafood that can be "Kryovac'ed" and frozen, to your East Hampton house free of charge. This caterer can serve your next big event on-site or just bring your dinner to your home.
By the way, Dreesen's Famous Donuts are sold at stores throughout the Northeast.
