Old-school Italian comfort, modern flair, and a whole lot of heart

There’s a new light shining on East Main Street in Bay Shore—and it’s called Bar Lucy. Nestled in what was once The Linwood, Bar Lucy offers a fresh take on traditional Italian fare with handcrafted dishes, spirited cocktails, and the kind of hospitality that turns first-time guests into regulars.

Whether you’re craving a comforting plate of pasta, a perfectly mixed drink, or simply a warm, welcoming atmosphere, Bar Lucy invites you to come for the Parm—and stay for the people.

Food That Speaks for Itself at Bar Lucy

The menu is a celebration of bold flavors and familiar comforts. Each dish is made with care and intention, using quality ingredients and time-honored techniques.

Must Order at Bar Lucy:

House-Made Meatballs – A tender mix of beef and pork, slow-cooked in a rich tomato sauce.

Pork Tenderloin – A thick-cut chop, pan-seared and finished with rosemary and garlic.

Fusilli Gregorio – A hearty pasta dish with sausage, peas, pink sauce, ricotta salata, and breadcrumbs.

Lemon Curd Cheesecake – A creamy, dreamy dessert with a tangy swirl of lemon curd on a buttery crust.

This is food that doesn’t need to be explained—just enjoyed.

More Than a Meal

This isn’t just a place to eat; it’s a place to connect. Inspired by the Italian word “lucia,” meaning “light,” the restaurant’s mission is to send love and light to every guest who walks through the doors. That spirit of warmth and hospitality is what makes Bar Lucy truly special.

From the kitchen to the front of house, every member of the team is passionate about delivering more than just a meal—they aim to create magical moments, exceed expectations, and always choose the “right” thing over the “easy” one.

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 Long Island 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!
