Stopped in on way home from somewhere, for my first visit. Nice browsing on a sunny day. I tried a taste of their coffee which was very good, well worth a try. Something for everyone here, including fresh baked goods, friendly staff.

Attended a concert here in the upstairs hall on 2/29/2023. The library itself is located in a beautiful setting ideal for an outdoor stroll. The concert lasted one hour with some classical and other pieces. A pianist, harpist and flautest made up the entertaining trio. If you go to the Bryant Library website you can enter your email address to get their eBlasts aboit upcoming programs. The library is situated in Roslyn, NY. BTW from 1 to 4pm Mon thru Sat, across from the library there is smaller white building where used books can be donated and available for purchase

A plesant little farmers market of up to thirty participants covering fresh fish, scallops & shrimp from Shinnecock, to gourmet coffee fresh brewed by Java Josh (including iced coffee) and a wide selection of exotic teas. Open only on Wednesdays from 7am till 1pm, June through November it's well worth a visit to it's location at the entrance to Christopher Morley Park, vegetables in abundance, varieties of baked goods, even a "pickle on a stick" stall which also features olives, beets and peppers all in vats. Gourmet olive oil, home made rice pudding with also a delicious home made cold oatmeal with raisins. Candies and chocolate are here, as well as jars of melted chocolate fudge! There's a stall with a large selection of pasta products, well worth musing over. Cheese is not slighted, I picked up a bit of goat cheese I plan to have at home with home made blueberry preserves. Many stalls have samples out for tasting. Vegan selections and info available, as well as a gluten free stall. If you're a fan of rustic breads you must visit the stall with quite a selection of very tempting home made loaves. By the way, many stall people I spoke with had home baking licenses, so their offerings are truly 'home made'. Plenty of parking, no entry fee, enjoy the fresh open air experience. Bring cash, not credit cards. I was there round 8am, before more people began arriving. This is definitely not a t-shirt and beads market. There is also my review filed under Christopher Morley Park. A revisit in 2019 resulted in more photos and some different stalls. Note: the presence of some stalls can change from season to season, even week to week, but it's a nice outdoor experience, try it, you'll like it.
