From morning pour-overs to last-call cocktails, Court House Eatery transforms every hour into something worth remembering. Sit down. We’ll take care of the rest.
Court House Eatery was born from a simple conviction: a great meal and a well-crafted drink shouldn’t require a trip into the city. Nestled on Jackson Street in the heart of Hempstead, we’ve built a space where the ritual of eating and drinking is treated with the same seriousness as the ingredients that go into it.
Our kitchen sources locally whenever possible, our bar program rotates with the seasons, and our floor team remembers your name after the second visit. This isn’t a place you pass through. It’s a place you come back to.

Locally sourced when possible
Three pillars define what happens inside our doors. Everything else is details.
Start your morning right with single-origin pour-overs, house-made pastries, and a breakfast menu that actually earns its place on the plate. No rush. No noise. Just good coffee and better company.
Our cocktails are built, not shaken into submission. Seasonal spirits, house-infused bitters, and a wine list curated by someone who actually cares—not just someone who likes the label.
From birthday dinners to boardroom gatherings, our private dining space accommodates intimate celebrations with the same attention to detail as our regular service. Let us handle the logistics.
Real words from people who choose us for their regular nights out.
I’ve brought clients here three times now, and every single time the food and service have been impeccable. It’s become my default recommendation for anyone hosting dinner in Hempstead.
The Hempstead Sour is genuinely one of the best cocktails I’ve had on Long Island. The atmosphere is sophisticated without being stiff. I come here on my Sundays.
We hosted our anniversary dinner in the private room and the whole evening was seamless—from the custom menu to the last round of drinks. They treated us like family.
Walk-ins are welcome, but reservations guarantee your seat—especially on weekends. Give us a ring or fill out the form and we’ll confirm within the hour.
