Behind the scenes

We've created a kitchen and dining environment that combines the relaxed sea-side traditions of a general store, where there's time for a chat while you pick up your basic supplies, with the needs of visiting families and diners who expect an interesting menu featuring local ingrediants that's served fresh and fast.

The Somers General Store kitchen is geared up to deliver on both fronts so that you can leave with a coffee and a paper or, having stayed for breakfast and lunch and a day at the beach, a great dining experience.
