Grindstone Coffee & Donuts
7A Main St., Sag Harbor
Grindstone’s makes great single-origin organic coffee and flavored lattes—but everybody’s here on Saturday mornings for the yeasted donuts, which are light, not too sweet, and unfairly good. Their evergreen menu leans toward the classics, like simple sugar, glaze, or strawberry sprinkle, while specials lean creative or grown-up. (Perhaps you’ll find Boston cream, lavender, or lemon poppyseed.) Don’t come too late in the morning; they sell out fast.
Sag Harbor Tavern
26 Bay St., Sag Harbor
If you’ve been to Sag Harbor Tavern’s Brooklyn sister restaurants, Hometown Bar-B-Que and Red Hook Tavern, you know owner and chef Billy Durney does magic with a cheeseburger, a thick slab of bacon, and ridge-cut French fries. Come here for lunch or dinner, and you’ll see plenty of those burgers walking by—along with fragrant plates of mussels, rock shrimp pasta, branzino, strip steak, and brick chicken.
Post House
31 Long Island Ave., Sag Harbor
Book group classes or private training—no membership needed—at Post House for workouts focused on flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular fitness—all with the goal of building excellent posture.

Forma Pilates
31 Long Island Ave., Sag Harbor
People love Forma Pilates not only for its superstar instructors and challenging method, but also for its exclusivity; in order to register for classes and private lessons, you need a referral from someone who already goes here. The studio is popping up for the summer in a private studio inside Post House, with intimate classes (there are just six reformers in the 1,200-square-foot space), views of Sag Harbor Cove, and a powder room stocked with goodies from Summer Fridays, Dr. Barbara Sturm, and RMS Beauty, Evolve, and the Skinsheet.

Tracy Anderson Method Sag Harbor
