Sett Coffee

Why go

Sett Coffee occupies a straightforward but considered niche on the East End: a year-round specialty coffee and market destination at 136 Main St, Amagansett, where the seasonal rhythms of the Hamptons can make consistent, quality-focused operations genuinely difficult to sustain. The shop runs a focused beverage program built around premium espresso drinks, matcha, and teas alongside fresh-baked pastries, donuts, and a curated selection of takeout provisions, the kind of edit that reflects deliberate sourcing rather than an expanded café menu that tries to be everything. The venue is owned by John and Kelly Piccinnini, who describe it as a labor of love and bring hospitality experience from The Clam Bar and The Corner in Sag Harbor to the project. That background is visible in the operational approach: Sett Coffee is not positioned as a quick-service stop but as what the owners call a "thoughtfully curated coffee experience" for the East End, language that points toward ingredient quality and atmosphere over volume. The format is café and market rather than full-service restaurant, coffee and tea, American breakfast and brunch-adjacent provisions, available for takeout. For a stretch of the South Fork where many independent food and beverage operations shutter for winter, the year-round commitment is a meaningful operational signal. The space also serves as an event venue for community programming, adding a social function beyond the daily coffee counter.
