That delicious combination of espresso and steamed milk, cappuccino is a coffee shop staple and after dinner favorite for anyone who can’t handle espresso on its own but might also want something a little more special than coffee—without all the modern mocha-macchiato-frappe nonsense. Cappuccino is a traditional drink dating back to 17th century Italy, but the East End has mastered it well.

So who makes it best?

To celebrate National Cappuccino Day this Thursday, November 8, we’re running down the newly elected 2018 Dan’s Best of the Best Cappuccino winners in the Hamptons and North Fork. Let our voters be your guide!
