⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5
A visually stunning café with a “cool-meets-cozy” atmosphere that stands out in Port Jefferson. The service is efficient—even when they’re busy, the wait for food is only about 6–8 minutes. It’s a great spot for anyone who appreciates a local business that prioritizes creativity in both its decor and its menu.

The Kansas City Wrap was excellent, featuring high-quality fresh ingredients and a surprisingly authentic regional BBQ flavor. Their Java Bar is also top-tier confirmed by my girlfriend; the Mocha Caramel coffee was delicious and a clear step above your standard corporate brews. Great for foodies, coffee lovers, and anyone looking for a relaxed, artistic environment to grab a meal. They also have an extensive vegan menu.

Tiger Lily Café is a cozy gem in Port Jefferson that delivers both atmosphere and flavor. The café has a warm, eclectic vibe with artsy décor and a welcoming feel that makes you want to linger. It’s the perfect spot to relax, people-watch, or catch up with friends while enjoying something truly special.

Their Spiced Chai Frappe is incredible—a perfect blend of creamy, icy refreshment with the comforting spices of chai. It’s rich but not too sweet, with just the right balance of cinnamon, cardamom, and other warming spices. Every sip feels like a treat, especially on a warm day when you still want those cozy chai flavors.

The staff is friendly and quick, making the ordering process smooth even when the café is busy. Whether you’re a local or visiting Port Jefferson’s waterfront, Tiger Lily Café is a must-visit for great drinks, unique atmosphere, and that unforgettable Spiced Chai Frappe.

Perfect time capsule of the ’90s when things were cutting edge and subculture– the art, the vegetarian handwritten menus and the riot grrl feminism.
This place was and is cutting edge. It’s a must- visit for vegetarians, vegans, and nestled in the heart of Port Jeff harbor, there’s truly nothing else like it and it’s not a chain.
It used to take cash only like most independent business — and ever since 2020 it takes both cash and card.

Their veggie burger is the best mediest non–meat I’ve ever had in my years of being vegan and vegetarian. Their homemade tofu cutlets never miss as well as all their fun salad choices that rotate every so often.
Their Sunshine burger is super earthy.
Everybody loves their falafel and crab cakes.
I recommend their Medusa juice, gazpacho soup, and the little hidden Brie and jam on a roll with sliced pears. The staff and workers work really hard to make sure the food is delicious and consistent every time.
Even though prices have raised somewhat, it’s worth it for the amazing warm atmosphere and the women that run it are willing and ready for conversations and their attitude is always top notch as far as I’ve gone in.

Thank you, Tiger Lily, for all your business, excellent food, and warm service. So incredibly grateful that an earthy, artsy place like you exists, and the people that run it and support it make it possible.

Great little find in Port Jefferson. Excellent vegan and vegi menu with some meat options as well. Seating and decor is very different giving the place a great atmosphere. Staff very friendly and helpful and the food was amazing. They also have some terrace seating outside at the back. Highly recommend a visit.

This is my favorite place in Port Jeff! The food is consistently delicious, with so many interesting options to choose from. I don’t think I’ve ever had something I didn’t love in my 8 years coming here. The staff is so friendly and the music and artwork creates such a fun, funky atmosphere that is truly unique! You can really tell everything is made with love. Highly recommend choosing Tiger Lily Cafe if you’re looking for a place to eat in Port Jeff!

My Husband and I met our friend in Port Jeff to do some business in town and we needed a quick healthy place to grab some lunch. Tiger Lily Cafe was amazing. The staff couldn’t have been nicer, the atmosphere was really laid back and made us feel very comfortable. And the food was top notch. My husband had the southwest wrap which he loved. I had the Veggie Burger, which i was thoroughly impressed with. Some veggie burgers are hit or miss, but this one was really special. Exactly what we were looking for and more. Thank so much to the owners and all the staff!

Good food. Great service. Wonderful atmosphere. Medusa lounge out back, counter bar up front, classic seating tables in the middle and comfort couches available. Pleasant place to read a book, eat some food and meet with friends over tea and coffee. Appreciating the matcha.

Wow! You feel as though you’ve stepped onto the set of the TV show Charmed. A whimsygoth dream! Very friendly staff, great music and art. But most importantly, the food is SOoOoo good. I had the best wrap I’ve ever had in my life. (Balsamic veggie wrap with hummus). I’ll be back

An artistic cafe near the Port Jefferson main street serving vegetarian food.

Must-try: sesame tofu cutlet wrap.

Highlights: Works from local artists showcased in Medusa’s lounge. Stay and enjoy the funky atmosphere here!

Food: This cafe provides delicious vegetarian menu (probably the best I have ever tried in local area). As a non-vegetarian, I was hesitate, but the sesame tofu cutlet wrap is amazing. They also have a juice bar with rich options.

Parking: Free street parking / paid parking in parking lots.

The vibes in this cafe are unmatched by the decor and the friendly staff. Menu options can’t be overlooked with a wholesome and healthy bunch of offerings. I thoroughly enjoyed the turkey chili and my coffee with a cookie after. Great place to lounge and enjoy a quick meal/coffee.
