$18 on the Eighteenth

Way out here on the beautiful East End of Long Island, restaurants are pricey.

Today only, there’s a great deal in town: $18 for a fish & chips dinner that includes sides and dessert at St. Agnes’ RC Church in Greenport.

At Noah’s, a fish & chips costs $24. At O’Malley’s, it’s $19.95. At Claudio’s, you can’t get anything seafoodish for under $25–and that’s before tax & tip.

This is a deal, folks. A deal.

Let me tell you what, tourists. If you want to experience some of what really makes this small town great, go off the beaten track and attend a benefit dinner like this. The food is good, inexpensive, and the atmosphere is family friendly.

All proceeds from the fish & chips dinner benefit Robert L. Perry daycare–the only daycare east of Mattituck. Due to austerity measures, it has lost all its state funding. Our community needs this place to stay open.So come on. Who doesn’t love fish & chips, sides and dessert, for $18, that benefits kids besides?It’s in the Parish Hall, 6th Street off Route 25 [Front St.], Greenport, from 3:30-7:30. Eat in or takeaway.
