This place is run by a local family. The donuts and home-made breads are heaveny. One of my fav's is the avacado toast! The coffee is good and they now have a light lunch menu which is quick, easy and yummy. Great place for families & kids.

A well run local fish shack from a great local family who serves salmons to the local dogs and oyster crackers to all local children. - daily! The seafood is as fresh as can be.....off the boat to the shack. You can buy raw fish here or indulge in a lobster roll, oysters and steamers. I go for the chowder & entertainment as the workers are fun!

This place is more upper-scale so the prices are expensive, but the food is good. You will find seafood, meat and other local fare on the menu. Out-door seating is also available.

This is a casual restaurant with a decent size menu to please all palettes. They serve lunch and dinner. Like many of the local restaurants here the hours are dictated by demand so be sure to check to see if they are open before heading over.

The food here is GREAT!! Everyone can find something to eat. This restaurant is known for their seafood and pasta dishes, but meat lovers won't be dissapointed. Note - the portions are quite big so most dishes can be shared. I personally like to take the leftovers home. This is one of my all time favorite places to eat. There is a great ice cream place next door, but unlikely you'll have room for dessert.

Perhaps the most creative culinary servings this side of town! This is a breakfast/brunch place. The food is delicious, the menu unique and the service great. The only downside are the lines to get in.
