Great Home Cooking on the North Fork
Open for our 76th Season
Your trip to the North Fork won’t be complete without a stop at Modern Snack Bar.
Since 1950, the Modern Snack Bar has been a landmark North Fork restaurant for great home cooking. The Wittmeier family began their restaurant with a simple premise: to serve good food at a reasonable price to their “family” of patrons. Don’t let our name fool you. From a humble beginning of short orders and milk shakes, the Modern Snack Bar has grown in size and popularity through the years.
Now Serving fresh Duck from Crescent Farm!!
Welcome back Doug Corwin! Congratulations on saving a precious L.I. Commodity.

Our History
John & Wanda Wittmeier took ownership back in the early 1950’s. Originally a true a snack bar with a grill, six counter seats and a pass-through window to a few stools outside, it is today a full-service restaurant with two dining rooms seating 125 guests.
Seventy-plus years later, we’re still serving the North Fork and visitors from all over our “great home cooking.”
