In New York, we love stumbling upon a new restaurant that we’ve yet to try out. Throwing the cherry on top, it’s always even more special once we uncover a great breakfast spot that gives us the perfect start to our day. A place you’ll come to visit time and time again, this one whimsical restaurant is one that undoubtedly belongs on your dining bucket list.
Right within the beautiful small town of Smithtown, Maureen's Kitchen will have you saying Holy Cow!
A family run business that many of us have been visiting for the past 20 years, this Suffolk County Gem has a unique theme.
As soon as youl arrive you'll quickly notice that this restaurant carries out their cow theme in every charming way imaginable.
And you'll also be quick to notice that the playful restaurant wants to make you feel at home in the best ways possible.
Cow enthusiasts who are looking to take a piece of Maureen's home with them can check out the ceramic cows that they have for sale and other merchandise.
From the seats to the mugs, you'll find that most of Maureen's decor is made up of cow-print and rustic charm.
Only open for the prior half of the day, Maureen's quickly fills up (especially on the weekends) with many loyal customers and returning friendly faces.
So what are some of the famous dishes that have captured the hearts of those who have eaten here? Let's suggest their quirky Pistachio Pancakes for starters!
Since St. Patrick's Day is right around the corner, why wouldn't we kick things off with the strange green food items on this menu? While green pancakes may not have been what you originally had in mind for breakfast, you won't regret trying this unusual breakfast item!
Another dish that wins over the belly's of Maureen's customers? Their perfected homemade baked oatmeal!
What better way to start off your day than with a dish of scrumptious homemade oatmeal and a glass of warm milk? The baked oatmeal recipe has been in the family for several generations and has long been a favorite to those that have made Maureen's their second home.
And if you still haven't been won over yet with these amazing menu items, you'll absolutely love feasting on their Croissant French Toasts!
These Croissant French Toasts come in a variety of flavors, all of which will have your stomach rumbling. Oozing with unforgettable flavors that you'll wish you could eat every morning, these croissants are unlike anything you've ever tasted.
Those who have never been to Maureen's and are looking to try something a bit more classic and simple can try diving into their amazing pancakes that you can top off with treats like Oreos, Blueberries, Banana Nut and more.
While Maureen's is always adding new items to their menu, it's their unforgettable and unique dishes that always keep people coming back for more. Those dining in the restaurant will be able to see their homemade dishes coming to life from behind the bar area where you'll find customers eating at the tabletop taking everything in.
Who's ready to head out to Suffolk County to enjoy a one-of-a-kind breakfast experience that you'll fall head over heels for?
Maureen's theme comes from the family's heritage of owning a cow farm up in the town of Callicoon and is one of the region's most beloved restaurants. The restaurant moved to its current location back in 1997 and has continually been drawing in crowds ever since. With friendly service, homemade food and a whimsical theme that brings a smile to customers faces, it's hard not to see why people love this place so much.
