If you're looking for a fresh and delicious healthy lunch or dinner, you now have a new reason to stop by Hampton Coffee Company in Water Mill. The eleven-year-old espresso bar and café has introduced a new "Create-Your-Own" Salad Bar to complement its diverse menu of nutritious and vegetarian offerings.

Available at a separate To Go counter in the espresso bar area, staff stand by ready to mix a garden fresh salad to your exact specifications! Choose from a variety of lettuces and then add your choice of up to four "Toss-Ins" (vegetables) and a gourmet dressing, like their homemade balsamic vinaigrette, for only $7.50. Toss-In selections include everything you'd expect, plus some unique items like Hearts of Palm, artichoke hearts, and sundried tomatoes. Then add a cheese (goat, parmesan, feta, or blue) for an additional $1.50 and/or a meat (grilled balsamic or lemon chicken, smoked tuna salad, or bacon) for $2.00 extra.

At only $7.50 for a complete four-veggie salad with gourmet dressing, Hampton Coffee's Create-Your-Own Salad Bar is a great Hamptons deal! While many area salad bars charge by the pound, it's a better deal at Hampton Coffee Company where you pay by the ingredient, no matter what its weight. The new Create-Your-Own salads are perfect for picnics, the beach, or as the starters for your home-cooked meal.

In addition to their salad bar, Hampton Coffee Company still offers a large selection of delicious offerings for swimsuit season. The health conscious can choose from a from a variety of homemade vegetarian soups like their famous Vegetarian Chili, three made-to-order salads from the kitchen, mayonnaise-free smoked tuna salad, custom made egg-white and vegetable omelets, hand-cut fresh fruit salad, non-fat yogurt and fruit parfaits, and fat-free apple and chocolate muffins baked each morning at the café.
