Historical:
Located on 302 Middle Road in Blue Point, Flo’s Famous Luncheonette is a local landmark. It is a small road-side lunch stand. Florence Kimball opened this popular lunch stand in the 1920’s. According to local historian Gene Horton, it was a “symbol of summer.” When Kimball died in 1950 Betty Edmonds took over and there have been a series of owners ever since. There have been few changes however made to the original building. The current owners have returned successfully to a basic burger, clam and fish fry menu.
