Fire Island, New York
Harborside fast-casual spot for breakfast through late-night bites.
Canteen is the Pines' harborside fast-casual spot, set on Harbor Walk with front-row tables overlooking the ferry dock. It's the easy all-day option between the beach and the next tea dance: coffee and breakfast in the morning, sandwiches and salads through the afternoon, and snacks into the evening. The brisket sandwich is the order regulars tend to point newcomers toward. The deck is as much the draw as the food: one of the Pines' main casual gathering points, and a prime perch for watching boats come in and the harbor crowd pass by. Open daily through the season, it's where you refuel without losing the day.
