A Coffee Shop That Believes in Selling “Only The Good Sh*t”

Nestled in the heart of Wantagh, Simply Spinelli is a new coffee shop that has quickly captured the attention of locals seeking a blend of deliciousness and wellness. Simply Spinelli offers more than just coffee—it provides a sanctuary for those who prioritize both taste and health.

About Simply Spinelli

The brainchild of founder Alexa, Simply Spinelli embodies a simple yet profound mission: “Only the good sh*t.” The shop’s approach is to deliver mouth-watering treats that are as nutritious as they are indulgent. Whether you’re on the go, looking for a healthy snack, or searching for a cozy spot to enjoy a delicious meal, this local gem has something for everyone.

Alexa’s journey into the culinary world began at the age of 20 while studying at the University of Tampa. A nutrition class and her immersion into yoga opened her eyes to the healing power of food and the importance of quality ingredients. Inspired by her mother’s battle with breast cancer, Alexa developed a deep understanding of the value of self-care. Though she earned a degree in Communications, her heart was drawn to the wellness industry.

After a brief foray into advertising in New York City, Alexa realized she needed to follow her passion. She left her job, completed a 200-hour yoga instructor certification, and graduated from a nutrition-focused culinary school in early 2019. Armed with this knowledge, she began experimenting in her parents’ kitchen, crafting nutritious treats that would soon become a staple at Simply Spinelli.

Alexa’s creations, like her signature Nutribombs, are a testament to her commitment to using simple, wholesome ingredients. She believes in the power of food to nourish the body and mind without compromising on flavor. Their philosophy—”Simple Food. Simple Ingredients. Simply Spinelli.” This philosophy guides every item on the menu, from their nutrient-packed snacks to their gourmet coffee blends.

Simply Spinelli Hours and Location

Summer hours are Tuesday-Friday from 7am to 4pm, and Saturday and Sunday from 8am to 2pm. The shop is closed Mondays, giving Alexa and her team time to recharge. They are located at 739 Wantagh Ave in Wantagh, NY.

Conclusion

Simply Spinelli is more than just a coffee shop—it’s a destination for those who believe in the power of good food and simple ingredients. Alexa’s passion for wellness and her dedication to creating high-quality treats make this new spot in Wantagh a must-visit for anyone seeking a happy, healthy lifestyle.

Melissa Farrell has a mission to support local business by "Going Local." As a local business owner herself, she understands the struggles entrepreneurs face when owning a business and is always trying to find ways to shine a spotlight onto them. Melissa started Going Local Tours & Experiences back in 2020 during the pandemic in hopes to bring people back into local restaurants and shops. She created food tours in Huntington, NY that would stop at 3-4 local businesses and gave the guests the chance to meet the owner and hear the story behind the business. She soon realized how powerful storytelling is when connecting people to local businesses and created options with local store owners as well to bring them onto the tour to share their story. Melissa wanted to expand out of Huntington to be able to support even more local businesses and started creating luxury picnics where she would bring local to you! She would find local businesses in the area of the picnic set up and deliver it to you offering ways to support over 3 local businesses at each picnic. This wasn't enough. She wanted to find a better way to help spread awareness of local businesses and share their stories. Enter Evangeline Knell...a woman with over 30 years of broadcasting experience who somehow convinced Melissa to host a 3 day live stream from the Huntington Fall Festival. She had never been on camera before, but working alongside Evie to create the 3 shows, gave Melissa the confidence to take on the challenge. The 3 shows produced focused on the local vendors, the food trucks and the events that occurred at the festival and had a much larger reach than Melissa could ever of done on her own. They soon realized a business partnership was needed and combined their two businesses, Identity Digital which is a production company and Going Local Tours and Experiences to form Going Local Media. Evie and Melissa even formed their own distribution outlet by creating Going Local TV, a streaming platform like Netflix or YouTube, that is all about local businesses, events and organizations on Long Island. There are over 200 videos including their podcast series "Let's Get Local" "Long Island Business Minds" and "Local Business Spotlight" that help spread awareness of our local businesses and Long Island Professionals. They are always thinking up new ways to support local, including this site, Going Local Today that is a directory of articles on how to Go Local on Long Island. We appreciate you taking the time to read this and for supporting local! Thank you!
