I get the cookies and iced coffee but I’m here to talk about the cookies- a MUST have!! So so so good!!! I would go back weekly for these. Worth every cent!

I work in the same shopping center as Druthers. It’s so nice to have friendly neighbors! Everything here is fresh and delicious! Staff are also super knowledgeable about their products to help you choose the right drink!

Druther’s was a great, chill café with friendly staff and good food. There was a good amount of seating, (especially outdoor seating!) though there were very few power outlets, so not necessarily a place you can stay and do work. Definitely recommend and can’t wait to go back!

Cute lil coffee shop very clean and super nice staff amazing environment

If I had my druthers, Id go to this coffee shop every morning. But I rarely have my way in anything save for my order of their cold fashioned(pictured). Its a deliciously intense mixture of cold brew and bitters, burnt orange and a luxardo maraschino cherry. Their rather stellar barista tells me its going away soon with the season which really should cost them 2 stars, but Ill be kind. The space is clean and bright, the egg sandwich simple but unforgettable thanks to a whole mess of crispy shallots. Outdoor or indoor seating is blessed by lots of sunlight perfect for showing off your love of James Joyce.

Huge coffeeshop! Staff is friendly and their espresso drinks taste really good! Glad I came across this place, definitely stop by here!

Absolutely livid at the size of my latte for $5+ tax & tip totaling $7 for three sips. It is completely unacceptable to sell portions this small, 12oz is standard and I had no reason to believe I was getting a baby sippy cup until it was too late. Photos for size reference. Do yourselves a favor and just go to the Dunkin next door. At least you’ll get what you pay for. Super disappointed they are taking advantage of students with these prices and sizes.**REGARDLESS of the name of the beverage, latte or another warm drink, I shared correctly how much the cost was and how you expect to receive a 12oz cup at any coffee shop for that price. It was not advertised anywhere that their ~special~ not considered latte drinks come in 8oz for $5 and you are meant to spend $7+ to receive a normal size... This is purely a buyer beware so that others do not walk away with a similar disappointment. Clearly from the lack of apology or offer to make this right, I cant say I will be coming back to spend more money to receive what I should have received the first time.

Great coffee cafe, warm atmosphere and staff. Many healthy options for food and delicious scones and the olive muffin is a must!

Rather rude and snobby at the counter, and quite overpriced just because theres no other cafe nearby.I asked why theyd charge me $4 for steamed milk (made up price, not on their menu) while cappuccino (=steamed milk+espresso) is $3.75. He aggressively says hes not here to debate with me the menu -- by which he probably meant his own made up price...They also charged about $14 for a small piece of mediocre butternut squash pie.Wont return.

The burnt caramel latte was delicious in iced as well as hot options! The interior of the shop is also very asthetically pleasing and extremely clean. The employees were also very helpful and informative with their menu items. Definitely worth the stop!

Visited for the first time this morning, and it is now my favorite coffee shop. I wish it was a little closer, but Ill have to find some more excuses to go to Stony Brook. Coffee was absolutely delicious, and they have multiple vegan options which I will have to go back to try. Very bright and open atmosphere and super friendly staff.

Wonderful cafe! Everyone is very friendly and helpful. The Egg sandwich on the Everything Bagel is simply amazing. Great coffee & tea (hot & cold). They have good Wifi and dont mind you sitting and working for a while. Convenient location, practically across the street from the Stony Brook train station and just a few minutes from the Stony Brook University campus.

Great coffeehouse. Staff is very pleasant. The space is beautiful and clean. Family friendly. Great seating indoor and outdoor.The coffee is wonderful... best around.

Holy crackers this cold brew is amazing. Every cold brew i have had lately has been so bitter BUT THIS smooth as can be omg thank you so much. The frittata as well AMAZING creamy, flavorful YUm!

Mike was our cashier and was amazingly GREAT!! Loved the ambiance, the stuff were more than friendly, and one of the customers in a party of two offered and gave us their table, since were had four in our party.:-) :-) :-)Thanks for a great experience!!!Seriously, you can feel all the LOVE and positive vibes emanating from the entire staff!! Thanks again for everything!

Chic place in stony brook. Loved the Chai soda. Would come back again!

Finally, a legit coffee shop you can sit and work at and they have vegan options! Friendly staff and the drinks were inventive and better yet delicious.

Outstanding coffee, fantastic selection of chocolates. Tasty house sandwich,but size could be bigger for the price. Great service.

Modern take on coffee and creative. I had the burnt caramel and lavender iced coffees. Both were memorable, yum! Breakfast sandwich was just okay and a bit too expensive.

The coffee here is top notch. And the breakfast sandwich and scone this morning were delicious. Michael, who runs the place, is always welcoming.

Perfect Cappuccino. Precise amount of foam, milk, espresso ratio.

We finally have a great coffee shop around the Stony Brook University. It can have more outlets in the dinning area though.

Everything you want in a coffee shop: great coffee, upbeat atmosphere, caring/friendly owner and staff. Plus, delightful tea. Sadly opened after I moved, but will put it on my route when I visit.

Lived the atmosphere. Such positive people behind the counter. Pleasant, no rush & sincerely interested in helping you get what you really like. Another definite yes

Ive tried dozens of cafés around LI and this is by far the best one. The quality of each menu item is superb. The employees were nice and provided excellent service. Their vegan options are excellent as well. Be sure to try the vegan bagels with tofu cream cheese, and grab a vegan baked good too!

The coffee here is absolutely delicious! Staff is so nice to us, my boyfriend and I come here all the time! The tea lattes are great, and the flavored lattes aren’t too sweet at all! Love this place

Love the tea. I even bought more to brew at home. Thy the summer peach

BEST. COFFEE. EVER.Seriously, this is the best coffee I’ve ever had.They only use the the best coffee, and they make all of their own flavors. No overly sweet, fake, artificial flavors like you find at the giant corporate outfits. The owners and staff are extremely friendly and courteous.Food is great as well, but plan on it taking a pretty long time 🤪Truly happy to have a place like this in three village.

Great coffee, but their serving sizes are small for their specialty coffees. They also have a great selection of light breakfast items.

Love this place and so happy that it’s close to campus. Amazing coffee, great atmosphere, and super friendly staff. Tons of tables so you can bring your laptop too.

***NOT DOG FRIENDLY***Nice looking place. Was turned away at the door with my puppy.Since I’m not allowed to respond to the response below:No signage is posted that I could find. I was not told that upon entering, I was told that the dog has to be outside and then pointed.Also, please review the law. Companion dogs are not allowed in dining areas or food preparation areas. Your take out counter is not a dining area.If you do not want to allow dogs in the establishment that is your choice but do not hide behind a misinterpretation of NYS law.

Solid specialty drinks. Excellent shakerato. Espresso a hair too bitter for my liking but still excellent.

This was some of the best iced latte ive had! The dude at the counter was very friendly. I like the greenery.

Great Ambience and setting. Delicious drinks and treats.

Ate one of the best egg sandwiches from there today after deciding to check it out on a whim. I can’t wait to go back and have another along with some delicious coffee. A great hidden gem of a coffee shop in Stony Brook!

The place is huge and beautiful! Staff is so nice and helpful. Amazing coffee

Always a great experience!! Love the coffee, food & staff!! Their chocolate chunk scones are the BEST

This place is a breathe of non-franchised air! Huge windows on three sides create a bright, spacious and cozy space ideal for reading or chatting with friends; and they also have bistro style outdoor seating that are handy during these pandemic times. We havent tried much from their beverage menu but their cold brew is among my husbands favorite and Im a fan of their herbal tea flavor combos. Were also fans of their 6-or-so-deep pint-sized baked goods selection that are made fresh daily and on-site -- and you can taste that delicious difference -- with the blueberry lemon sconce and olive oil muffin being our faves. Overall, a great place but heads up: theyre a smidge pricier than other coffee spots.

Great coffee. Friendly and patient staff. Comfortable setting

Clean atmosphere, friendly staff, great coffee made from counter culture beans. a very solid addition to stony brook. thanks

Today I went to Druthers for the third time and finally got food. I have to say the egg sandwich is up there with some of the best Ive had. Its different than what everyone else offers with such great flavor. The teas and coffee are always perfect. The atmosphere is so light and open. I dont live in the area but go to Stony Brook so im excited when school opens back up so I can come here more regularly!

This place is AMAZING! Ive already came twice and have been blown away both times. For a drink, Ive gotten the cinnamon iced latte with macadamia milk. For food, I tried the sweet potato toast (but veganized with no egg) and it was seriously SO GOOD!!!

Amazing addition to town! Great coffee and tea and atmosphere. I love their iced chai fog! It’s also a great spot to meet up with someone to chat over a cup of coffee OR get out of the house and do work. They have lots of seating inside and outside. The owners and employees are so kind and accommodating. Support local and visit :)

Excellent Local Cafe spot, great food options with locally sourced ingredients.

Fantastic coffee and the staff are extremely friendly. They already remember my wife and I after the couple of times we visited.

Great coffee and atmosphere, amazing baked goods

Got an iced lavender latte was sooooo good ! Super clean inside and nice decor. Staff was very friendly. Deff recommend !

I had the burnt caramel latte with oat milk and the barista totally nailed the flavor and temperature of my drink, as well as some nice latte art 😊. They have a la marzoco machine which I haven’t seen in any coffee shops in the area (Its my favorite espresso machine).The aesthetic of the shop is lovey as well. They have a bird of paradise (my favorite indoor plant) and palm tree that warms up the sitting area, along with some nice mounding around the front counter.The attention to detail is evident throughout its coffee and space. I highly recommend this lovey establishment.

Eh everyone was saying such great things about this place I got the cold brew and it just wasnt that great. They also dont know about their own coffee, estimated amount of caffeine should be known. The mocha latte also not that great, but I did like that it wasnt sweet.

Great coffee and loved the vibe

Great local coffee shop with incredible selection of coffee and tea drinks. They also have amazing baked goods. I love the decor and atmosphere and the friendly service. My new favorite place to go! So happy they opened.

Hands down the best coffee Ive had on Long Island. Inviting space, pastries baked in-house, reasonable prices. Its far away for me, but one visit here and Id rather make a special trip for the good stuff than keep going to my local place. Perfection and warmth are a hard combination to pull off, but Druthers does it.

Amazing new coffee shop. The coffee is great. The rest of the menu looks fantastic as well. Cant wait to try everything else on the menu.The owners/baristas are all super pleasant and they make some killer coffee. Great addition to the stony brook area.

These people are serious about coffee. I love coming there and always trying something new each time. And I found out on my last visit they deliver locally!

Very nice staff, amazing Lattes, Stony Brook is leveling up with Druthers

Lovely atmosphere and super friendly staff! Delicious coffee, sandwiches and their baked goods are to die for. Chocolate chunk scone is my favorite!

Delicious coffee and awesome staff! I just discovered this place and will most certainly be coming back! I got the iced cinnamon latte with macadamia milk and it was excellent!!!

The owners are so friendly, the place is beautiful inside, there is outside seating and the coffee is what true coffee lovers are looking for. Whatever you do, try the Blueberry lemon scones...your welcome :)Moreover, they always have fresh water outside for my dogs :)

What a great addition to Stonybrook-Setauket. Excellent selection of hot beverages all made with their own spin. Great alternative to the coffee chains. The baked items are far superior to the thawed goods served elsewhere. If you haven’t tried Druthers yet you’re missing out. Fantastic products and people serving them.

Great experience. Atmosphere is wonderful. Very comfortable seating. Service was flawless. I had the homemade hummus on a vegan pagel which was scrumptious. And of course the coffee was 👍

Great place. Ended up having the hot cocoa and it was the best Ive ever had!

Very friendly people and good coffee

My husband and I just moved to Long Island and were missing a nice local coffee shop. We tried Druthers this weekend and were very impressed. The coffee is excellent! We also spoke to Michael and he was clearly very passionate about both coffee and the customers. We’d absolutely recommend coming here!

Great coffee! Delicious small menu. Friendly service!

I moved out here from NYC this summer and feel at home again because of Druthers Coffee!!! Finally, a real coffee shop on long island. The coffee, the atmosphere and the owners are all amazing! I look forward to my visit every morning.

Druthers has quickly become a new favorite spot for my wife and I. Their coffee is excellent and their pastries are unbelievable light, fresh and tasty.Ive ordered their cold brew several times and it is easily the best cold brew Ive ever had. My wife has ordered a variety of different hot and cold drinks and they have all been excellent (yes, I sampled them all..lol).All of their pastries are freshly made on site and we havent ordered a scone or cookie that we didnt love.Their prices arent cheap but considering what you would pay for a similar, and much lower quality, item at Starbucks it is a no brainer.

Sorry.. but I have gone twice now just to give it a second chance. The lattes literally taste like water. I truly do not think the barista knows what he’s doing.... I asked for a chai tea latte with a shot and it truly tasted like milk and water . Both times. too bad.

Their burnt caramel latte is DELICIOUS!

Great coffee shop

This place is my new go to for coffee, chai, and baked goods. I always feel a great vibe when I come in and Ive stayed here several times to work on my graduate school work. I would definitely recommend trying a burnt caramel latte if you go 😋

Excellent coffee, and wonderful olive oil muffins. Lovely sun-drenched space

Awesome people, truly a great local business. Coffee is fantastic, been my new go to. Give it a try, you won’t regret it!!

We go often. Nice place. The different selections of coffee I have had, I like. They some more small food selections. More than a muffin.

Amazing coffee great baked goods. Fair prices and great service.

Super nice staff, great environment fantastic tea and scones

Very open view of passing traffic. Across the street from SUNY Stony Brook. Very popular with the students. I go for either the hot or iced coffee, depending on the weather. Good coffee. Rewards program is good. Found out about Druthers from Newsday in July. And I live in Mineola, Nassau County.

I had a great first experience! My cold brew coffee was excellent, and I am not normally a big coffee drinker. Everyone was very friendly and helpful- I will definitely be coming back!

Stunning new coffee joint hidden in Stony Brook. Amazing selection and great outdoor tables to enjoy nice weather.

Great coffee shop. Im an alumni of Stony and wish there was a cool coffee place like that when I was a student.

Amazing coffee, friendly staff, clean, and lots of vegan breakfast options. Awesome spot 👌 👏 😎 👍

Came in for a cup of hot coffee, the staff was very friendly and the regular hot drip coffee was excellent, it had very low acidity and great taste. This place will be very successful here, Im hoping they extend the weekend hours a bit later!

Best blueberry scones anywhere, and, oh, those olive oil muffins!

No outlets for laptops in a college town? Kept front doors locked and staff and customers stared at me while I stood in the rain trying to figure out how to get in (Back door). Coffee tastes like Folgers.

Great new coffee spot! Welcoming, open atmosphere. Tasty beverages! Highly recommend 🥤

Delicious baked goods! Pumpkin pecan scone and blackout cookie were awesome.

Very nice, good service nice selection on the menu and drinks are really nice as well, very upscale and love taking friends, family and clients here, keep up the wonderful work and will see you all soon!

Hands down best coffee on the island. The homemade baked goods are always fresh and delicious as well. Highly reccomend, puts starbucks to shame!

I enjoyed the fresh jam so much but there’s no phone number so I can speak to the gentleman who made it I looked all over on the website it’s strange that there’s no phone number to call

Great atmosphere, great food, and great service. If your in the area, stop on in.

Awesome! Beautiful and cozy interior, friendly staff, delicious food and drinks! Ive been wanting an independent coffee shop close to campus for years and this is exactly what sunny Stony Brook needed :)

Great friendly new family owned coffee shop. Coffee is delicious and love the seating

Staff is amazing and friendly. Can’t beat their drinks and baked goods! 👌🏻

Sweetest place with the best owners, best coffee and homemade pastries. Druthers won’t disappoint, don’t sleep on it!!

Very friendly place. Great coffee. Great muffin.

The best coffee and lovely baked goods. Clean, bright, fresh and friendly Environment.

Great addition to the Stony Brook Village area. Family owned and operated coffee shop. Lovely environment, wonderful service, and great coffee/scones. Excited to see what else they add to the snack menu!

The best coffee shop. the owner so nice

Great coffee and espresso

Great coffee, amazing friendly staff and awesome location 10/10

Good coffee, great baked goods and indoor/outdoor seating
