Bar at the East Hampton Train Station. Sounds great...think again...

Not everyone in the Hamptons is super-pumped about a new spot opening up.

According to The East Hampton Star in March, The M.T.A. said East Hampton Bar Car, a cafe and wine bar, was to be opening at the Long Island Rail Road station in East Hampton.

However, according to New York Magazine, some folks were none-to-pleased and circulated a petition to stop Bar Car from opening.

Locals are concerned it will turn into a “drinking destination.” And others seem more concerned about the potential impact it may already have on ‘limited parking.’

Coffee and drinks while you wait for the train? Seems like a win-win.
