Comfort foodNorth ForkSince 1950Turkey dinner
“A North Fork roadside classic since 1950 — the roast turkey, the mashed turnip, the parker rolls. Time did not touch this place.”
Modern Snack Bar on Main Road in Aquebogue has been serving old-fashioned North Fork comfort food since 1950 — roast turkey with all the sides, homemade mashed turnip, and rolls that come to the table warm.
It is the antidote to farm-to-table fussiness: a wood-paneled roadside room where the recipes have not changed in three generations. Come for the turkey dinner, stay for the pie.
