Friday Night Fun in Greenport

The most well-known and active town on the North Fork of Eastern Long Island is Greenport. The harbor town out towards the tip of the island has more to do than other towns on the North Fork and is home to the most night life in the area.

This past Friday night I was out in Greenport for some fun and I wanted to share with you what I did/you can do because Greenport is really a fun place to spend an evening.

Every Friday night Greenport has a band that plays in Mitchell Park (a park in the middle of town overlooking the water) at 7:30. After you get dinner I recommend grabbing some ice cream and heading down to the park to just relax on the lawn and check that out!

As I have mentioned before, Greenport is a great place to find a variety of dining options so what you choose to eat for dinner is up to you. Naturally there are also a few different ice cream shops in town, although I would recommend Ralph's. Ralph's is part of a chain on the island and is known for their "ices" but their soft serve ice cream is also to die for.

Greenport is a great "walking village." This means that at anytime of day it's a fun place to just walk around and wander in and out of stores. There are quite a few unique boutiques and other stores in Greenport. As someone who loves fashion, I think boutiques like the ones in Greenport sell some of the best clothes!

If you want a late night out you can head down to Claudio's Clam Bar to dance the night away. Most weekend nights in the summer they feature a band and a packed dance floor. It is a local hotspot for those who want to party all-night.

If you head out to Greenport you will find something to do. The streets are packed with restaurants and shops that can keep you entertained for awhile whether it be on a Friday night or not!
