There are the places you go, and there are the places you are *seen* going to. In the Hamptons, that distinction matters. Deeply. This is the hit list you’ve been waiting for — the sceney, the splashy, the impossibly booked. The antithesis to the hidden gems. Where a dinner reservation means more than your LinkedIn title and even a grocery run has paparazzi potential. No one shows up to Round Swamp in full Missoni because they just “threw it on.” (For the most part).
Without further ado, we present you the places that make the Hamptons feel like the Hamptons. Because if you’re paying an arm and a leg to be out here, you might as well shmooze with a billionaire who invites you to a 400-person soiree at his compound.
