Extras Needed For Filming Event At North Fork Eatery, 'A Hidden Gem'

GREENPORT, NY —If you've always wanted to be an extra —and would like to enjoy a delicious free dinner — an eatery in Greenport has the perfect opportunity.

A filming event will take place on Wednesday, April 17, at Front Street Station, located at 212 Front Street in Greenport, from 4 p.m. until 6 p.m.

"Be a part of the action as we film scenes for our upcoming project at Front Street Station!" said owner Sharon Sailor. "Experience the behind-the-scenes magic and indulge in the delicious food prepared for the shoot."

Sailor explained that the shoot is for a new video, produced by SpotHopper, for the restaurant's website.

The new video will spotlight Front Street Station, a family-run business with deep North Fork roots.

"We are a hidden gem, a little off the beaten path at our end of town," Sailor said. "People need to know us. We are packed with history, nostalgia, and a truly family owned and operated."

The time is now to expand exposure, Sailor said. "We struggled to overcome Covid and stay relevant and open. We did! This is the next phase of our expansion. Whether we want to admit it or not, social media, the vibe and feel of a restaurant, and the overall promotion to get your name out there, has to be done via social media. We need to follow the trends or get left behind. So now when you go to our website, you’ll feel the vibe — see the history, the nostalgia in living time."

The first 35 respondees will be able to enjoy a "great time and free food," she said. If you'd like to participate, text Sharon Sailor at 516-384-7782.
