Who we Are:
Alchemy Hospitality is a food & beverage lifestyle group with a small collection of restaurants on the east coast. We are sensitive to the needs of our guests and committed to a company culture that sets us apart and reinforces the fundamentals of good hospitality. At the core of this culture is honesty, integrity and fairness.
Located on Fort Pond Bay, Duryea’s is a seasonal water-front property in Montauk, NY. It is a destination for locals and tourists alike looking for good food, water views and arguably the greatest sunsets on the East End. With our 300ft dock, Duryea’s has become a favorite amongst boat owners looking to spend time on the water on their way to lunch or dinner. A few feet away from the restaurant is our dynamic, bustling retail market and boutique. Duryea’s Market features a barista station with fresh baked pastries, take out from the restaurant, and offers one stop shopping for a meal at home with local artisanal products. The adjoining boutique is the perfect spot to shop for the summer essentials, chic home décor, and your favorite Duryea’s brand sweatshirt.
