For more than 30 years, Hampton Coffee Company has grown from a single neighborhood café into one of the East End’s most recognizable homegrown brands — without ever losing sight of its local roots. What began in a converted 1940s-era service station in Water Mill has expanded into Long Island’s largest independent coffee roaster and retailer, serving communities across the Hamptons and North Fork.
Still family-owned and operated by Jason and Theresa Belkin, Hampton Coffee Company roasts its beans locally at its Southampton Coffee Roastery, supplies cafés throughout the region, fulfills mail orders nationwide, and even operates a custom-built Mobile Espresso Unit housed inside a Mercedes van. Yet at its core, the company remains focused on small-batch roasting, authentic espresso preparation, and fresh housemade food baked daily inside each café.
Hampton Coffee Company’s footprint now spans the East End, making it a true regional staple:

Each location reflects the same founding principles: small-batch locally roasted craft coffee made from 100% Arabica beans, direct trade sourcing whenever possible, fresh baked goods, and a culture where team members are valued. Many staff members live locally, and the company actively hires from within the communities it serves, reinforcing its commitment to keeping jobs and opportunity on the East End.
Community involvement is not an afterthought — it is embedded in the company’s mission. Hampton Coffee Company supports more than 100 local charities, schools, and organizations each year, participates in community events, and partners with regional nonprofits, including bakeries that provide employment opportunities for adults with special needs. The recent expansion into Hampton Bays reflects not just business growth, but a long-term investment in a hamlet where many of its employees and customers already call home.
In a region known for seasonal shifts and changing storefronts, Hampton Coffee Company has demonstrated that steady growth, local hiring, and community engagement create staying power. More than just a café chain, it represents what it means to truly #drinklikealocal — supporting a business that roasts here, bakes here, hires here, and gives back here across the Hamptons and North Fork.
