Old Stove Pub Reopens in Sagaponack

The iconic Hamptons restaurant best known for its glowing neon sign, bucking horse statue, porch front piano, and the slogan “When You’re Fed Up with the Chic, Come to the Greek” has opened its famed doors once again. The iconic restaurant, live music venue, and celebrity favorite returns to the scene newly restored and featuring new culinary offerings along with some classic favorites.

After being closed for renovations three years ago, and briefly put on the market for sale, new operator and restaurant owner Joseph DeCristofaro has decided to turn the Old Stove Pub’s classic neon sign on for business once again.

"We've been so proud to introduce the new and improved Old Stove Pub back into the community at this moment in time," notes owner Joseph DeCristofaro. "The set up on the patio and in the garden is arranged to accommodate social distancing, which has made for a relaxing and spacious experience for our guests. We have found much of the outdoor property is perfect for private dining for groups who seek an open space. Returning guests have been thrilled to see our locally sourced menu still offers some of the Old Stove traditional dishes and something new."

Mr. DeCristofaro, a Southampton local born and raised in the Hamptons, is a local Real Estate Broker, real estate investor, and entrepreneur. A hospitality industry veteran, Mr. DeCristofaro’s past endeavors include numerous restaurants in the Hamptons and elsewhere.

Located at 3516 Montauk Hwy in Sagaponack, New York, the Old Stove Pub will officially open its doors the first week of July 2020. Open for dinner service Wednesday - Sunday, the Old Stove Pub will stay open year-round. Outdoor dining and a dedicated outdoor area for cocktails will be offered during the summer months.

With customer safety and safe distancing a major concern, the Old Stove Pub has transformed a large outdoor space replete with a dining patio and large grounds offering picnic tables, waitress service and lite fare. Indoors also offers several dining areas as well, with plenty of room for social distancing.

Diners can expect a Greek and Mediterranean influenced and locally sourced menu, featuring some of the Old Stove Pub’s best-known classic dishes such as the Sagaponack Dry Rubbed Steak and Greek Salad - just to name a few. Returning guests will be pleased to find the famed piano tuned and carefully relocated to the porch, as well as the signature artwork by Leroy Neiman still intact in the indoor dining room.
