Provisions

Provisions has a lot going for it, on the surface. It’s ideally located near the waterfront in scenic Sag Harbor. If you’re looking for gourmet, natural packaged foods, you’ll find a decent selection here. Those are the positives.
Provisions also serves breakfast and lunch, eat in or take out. I’ve eaten here on a few occasions, mostly for breakfast, but recently for lunch. I’ve been disappointed each time. Servers act like they’re doing you a favor waiting on you. The prices they charge here and the Whole-​Foods-​By-​The-​Sea vibe has you expected some truly inspired recipes and tasty, unusual dishes. Uh, no. You’ll pay $ 15 for a small grilled chicken salad that is nearly tasteless. I’m sure the quality of the ingredients are very good, but the «grilled» chicken had no flavor and just because you toss some nice organic greens in a box (without any dressing, mind you, unless you ask for it) you call this a high end salad? Sorry, but Panera does a much better job for 50% less cash.
Additionally, it might be nice if the people who manage provisions encourage their employees to smile a little, and say «good morning» or «thank you». This is something Starbucks mastered 25 years ago. Yeah, okay, it’s New York, but seriously, if you expect people to pay high prices for just «okay» food and you can’t even smile and treat customers like you care about them? I don’t think I’ll be going back.

The smoothies are delicious and I’m a big fan of the special quesadillas and the avo goat cheese wrap. They also have these great homemade fig bars — I love them! Always grab one on my way out.

Clean, friendly, reliable. I’ve eaten here many times over the years and it’s always consistent. Great if you’re looking for something healthy and basic. The food recipes considered and tasty without being over the top. I like the breakfast burritos a lot. There is a nice little café atmosphere for eating in, or take out if you’re on the go. Some items seem pricey, but you’re in Sag Harbor village so just deal with it.

I don’t like this place. Was there this morning, bought a 5 oz juice for $ 8, and a coffee, and got the fish eye when I asked if there was soy milk for the coffee. Isn’t it a health food store? Then went to the front to pay and the guy at the register snapped at me when I failed to take my ticket after paying for the drinks. Forgive me for assuming you would toss it into the trash can a foot behind you… Do us a favor, Provisions — practice what you preach and be kind not only in food choices but in behavior, especially when charging people $ 8 for 5 ounces of juice.

Great vegan options at the café! I split the mushroom pecan veggie burger and the east/​west wrap with a friend and we completely devoured them! They also let us create our own green juice. I’ll be back next time I’m in the Hamptons for sure!

I had heard good things about Provisions. The last thing I enjoy doing is leaving a bad review. I respect the hard work and small margins of establishments like yours. I’ve been in the food business. But I was there yesterday on 8.21 with friends. I got the tempeh Ruben. I was very excited. I proceeded to eat the first half pretty quickly but struggled to eat the second. It was covered in Russian dressing and the sauerkraut was overkill. Two hours or less later I started to get pains in my stomach. It persisted all day as I started to come down with chills. I could barely go out that night and ended up shutting it down early. I was feeling just awful. I was wrapped in blankets and put to bed to only wake up to a nightmare of explosive and constant diarrhea. It was like the Bosphoros flowing out of my bum at an unrelenting speed. It was on fire literally. Hours later the nausea started to settle in. I could not bear my houses’ cold air so I bursted through the screen door out into the starry night with trees and a breeze to be my balm. But this food poisoning had taken on a life of its own and it was taking over every inch of my waking body. I was breaking out into cold sweats. Suddenly, I found myself on all fours near the houses’ swing set, like a little child, begging for forgiveness. This was not a pretty sight. A waterfall of vomit and diahrea shot out of both ends like Pele scoring a winning goal. I felt relieved but still in pain, ashamed of myself. How did I get here? It’s now almost noon the next day and I’m sitting by the pool starting to get back to my normal self. I don’t need anything from you. I only ask that you go easy on the dressing and don’t let what happened to me happen to another patron. Thanks! Peter.

Terribly overpriced mediocre food with very small portion sizes. The staff is not friendly and is not knowledgeable or helpful with orders. The store is very poorly organized, the line is a mess and orders get messed up. It was stressful waiting for the food as everything looked so disorganized. Overall terrible experience. I wouldn’t go back.

What happens when you get a house in the Hamptons for the 4^th of July weekend with all of your friends? You get F-​ed up your first night and wake up craving; «FRESH, ORGANIC, NATURAL» food + juice.
I waltzed in here with my other friend (who was equally drained) and was immediately reminded of some hippy joint that should patronized by burnt out John Lennons’ and women who *don’t* shave. But alas, this is the Hamptons, and these types of eateries are on trend. Here you will find pretty WASPs with their Chanel bags and $ 500 hair sipping $ 7 pressed juices and nibbling $ 15 egg wraps. Thankfully, my casual James Perse tee and Dr. Jart kept me looking more casual-​WASP versus hangover-​chic. The patrons here are also very polite and trusting. A woman asked my friend and I to watch her dog, Matisse, while she went inside. She actually gave us her dog for 15 minutes!
The food here is very good. Yes, I did order the $ 15 egg wrap. The eggs were apparently farm-​raised (laid by a chicken named Rebecca with a 401K) and cooked perfectly. I ordered Sun Salutation juice with OJ, lemonade, mint and grapefruit which was excellent and very hydrating. Great coffee too. You can take your breakfast to go or eat at the little tables outside.
The location is a little off the beaten path, but look for the sign and a line. It’s hard to miss after that. I definitely recommend this spot for a quick breakfast and I will definitly return if I’m in the area.

Tasteless and expensive.

I am definitely a fan!!! Breakfast in Sag Harbor = PROVISIONS :)
I also get to pick up daily staples like almond milk and snacks while I am there. You can’t go wrong with their fresh green juices and daily omelet specials. A quick tip; ask for complimentary jam when you order the omelet. I got their strawberry jam twice and it was oh so delicious!
I also tried their OJ+Grapefruit+Lemonade+Mint juice = YUMMY and REFRESHING.
Yes, they are on the pricier side BUT it’s all worth it if you are into clean, organic, local, farm to table eating.

Beware of the cashier… fine, I expect things to be high priced but when Mr. cashier overcharged me 2x in a row… I had to call him on it… be careful… and get a receipt!

Locals have been inhabiting Provisions’ small café and its aisles of wonderfully stocked healthy groceries for years. The food is always fresh, the smoothies are invigorating AND tasty, and the staff is so friendly. Come to fill your home with nutritious fruits, veggies, and snacks, and stay for a yummy tofu-​scramble for breakfast or a light yet hearty quesadilla or salad for lunch.

Visited this café for breakfast. Delicious coffee! Wonderful gluten free breakfast while my meat eating companion was also able to have a meal to his liking. He loved the breakfast burrito and I loved the tofu wrap in a bowl. They have hemp milk for the smoothies to please the super elite among us, present company included.
The attached grocery store has great stuff gives me the feel of my favorite stores in Ithaca, NY and Boulder, CO. Lovely and helpful staff, clean place, priced well even for the Hamptons. Pleasant indoor or outdoor dining seating areas and Mountain Valley glass bottled water available. Couldn’t get any better than this little gem in Sag Harbor.

Looking for a mega awesome health food shop in the South Fork? This is it. Bulk organic grains and cereal, grocery, and produce. I love this place.

Definitely a fan. Pricey for sure but came here on my first weekend in sag harbor and got an amazing vegan quesadilla and afterwards some bulk foods which I can’t seem to find anywhere else in the town centre.
Also tried their smoothies which were equally good, I had the one with blueberries and mint. YUM.
I love just can’t come too much will break my wallet, but definitely worth it.

Liquid multivitamins! Expensive as hell but they’ve got em. Staff is very helpful and don’t pretend to know more than they do, although they know plenty.

Sure they are overpriced like all health food stores. Unfortunately. And they are nerdy as can be. But they are good!!! And they are personal. The food is always good, great variety (in terms of over all products) and the staff knows its stuff.
Specially when compared to the little outlets with which chains like Whole Foods or King Kullen are trying to monopolize even the organic market and squeeze top dollars out of something that started out good while paying minimum wages to its demotivated staff you have to give Provisions credit.
If I could advise one thing: More variety on you menu. You have the same (good) stuff for years now.

All good :-) Great service, great food, delicious and healthy…
We had a «gorilla» juice (yummy!), a black bean chili (excellent!) and a goats cheese salad (absolutely delicious with an amazing dressing!).
Really cannot be faulted and if you can get a table outside in the sunshine, then life is good…
Highly recommended…

I have been eating and shopping here for many many years. Of course based on prices anywhere else — too expensive!
The food is very good — it used to be too healthful (ie. tasteless) but it is much better now.
It can get very crowded and hard to find somewhere to sit and they have this strange way of ordering — first you order, then take the ticket up front and pay, then bring it back stamped paid!
A good place for vegetarians, like me!
