"Raindrop's Café does double-duty as a community gathering space and farm-to-table restaurant. Since its opening last spring, the venue has hosted events as diverse as an Indigenous doula birth circle, a Democratic committee meeting, and a Game of Thrones watch party. Owner Bryan Polite wears two hats as an entrepreneur and the current tribal leader of the Shinnecock Nation. Raindrop’s social media profiles describe it as “a forum for progressive thoughts and positive energy,” which can start over a cup of coffee (roasted on the reservation using techniques passed down over generations) or Indigenous-American fusion food like venison Philly cheesesteak."
