The Roundtree, Amagansett: The Property Behind Nourish
Nourish by The Roundtree Staff
Most people find Nourish before they find The Roundtree.
The restaurant is in Bridgehampton. The hotel that shares its ownership, its philosophy, and its chef is 11 miles east, in Amagansett. The two run on the same idea of what hospitality should feel like, and the same person is responsible for the food at both.
For guests staying at The Roundtree, that closeness makes Nourish the most natural dinner reservation on the East End. For everyone who finds Nourish first, the property behind it is worth knowing.
The setting
The Roundtree sits on a quiet property in Amagansett, set back from the main road and surrounded by mature trees. The guest rooms are housed in a fully renovated 100-year-old barn. The structure was kept; everything inside was rebuilt. The result is a property that feels rooted in the East End without being precious about it.
Amagansett is the right village for what The Roundtree is doing. It sits between East Hampton and Montauk, quieter than either at the height of summer, with its own farm stands, its own beach access, and a year-round character that the busier Hamptons villages have traded away. Amagansett restaurants and shops still run at a village pace. The Roundtree fits into that rather than sitting above it.
The rooms
Accommodation ranges from Barn Classic rooms with a queen bed for up to two guests, to Barn Deluxe rooms with an added sofa sleeper for a small family or third guest, to Barn Suites with a separate living area and a king or queen bed. Select suites have cathedral ceilings. The property also has cottages for larger groups.
All rooms are in the renovated barn. The materials throughout, natural wood, linen, simple finishes, are consistent with the design sensibility of Nourish. Neither property uses the kind of decor that tries to signal luxury. Both let the setting do that work.
What is included
The Roundtree includes a number of things in the stay that most Hamptons properties charge for separately or do not offer at all.
Continental breakfast is served daily, either in-room or in the garden when the weather allows. Afternoon tea and freshly baked cookies are available at reception. Evening snacks are available on request. There is an ice cream happy hour. Bonfires and s’mores run at the firepit on the back lawn in the evenings.
For beach days: one complimentary parking pass per room for the town beaches, plus beach chairs, umbrellas, towels, portable coolers, and sand toys for children. Bicycles are available on site. The hotel is dog-friendly and provides dog beds, water bowls, and towels.
These are not afterthoughts. They reflect the same attention to the guest’s experience that runs through everything else about the property.
The connection to Nourish
Guests of The Roundtree have priority reservations at Nourish, the restaurant in Bridgehampton, about 15 minutes west on Montauk Highway without traffic.
The connection runs deeper than ownership. Chef Dewa Wijaya is the Executive Chef of The Roundtree, not only of Nourish. The same chef behind the dinner menu in Bridgehampton oversees the food at the hotel in Amagansett. For guests staying at The Roundtree, that continuity is part of what makes the drive to Nourish feel like an extension of the stay rather than a separate evening out.
The sourcing behind the Nourish menu is rooted in the same part of the East End as the hotel. Balsam Farms, which supplies the kitchen directly, is in Amagansett. The line between farm, hotel, and restaurant is not a marketing construct. It is a geographic fact.
To book dinner at Nourish using priority access, guests of The Roundtree should contact the hotel directly rather than booking through Resy as a public guest.
