The Lobster 🦞 Roll and sweet potato fries were just the best ever! We loved it so much. We went twice within three days! Run don't walk to this fabulous restaurant! Sit outside for a different vibe!

I always look for new places to go on the cape, this was 30 mins from our hotel. It did not disappoint. We were able to get a table right away. Timing to be greeted, to drinks, apps and entrees was perfect. Our server Nora was great too!

Stopped by for the first time today and had lunch. We were greeted and seated promptly. Got a table with a great view of the harbor. Started with the calamari which was very good. For our main dishes we ordered the fish and chips and the fish tacos. Both were cooked perfectly and tasted great. Denise, our waitress, was exceptional and very friendly.
Mike — Google review
One of the best seafood spots in the game. Elite outdoor seating overlooking a beautiful boat dock, but also a very beachy, familial indoor seating area. Menu is fairly priced and many quality options. Staff was friendly despite the organized chaos of the people waiting for tables. Huge shoutout to the kitchen, food was out immediately. Overall an amazing experience.

Seafood restaurant with outdoor seatings with great harbor view, firepit, but long wait possibly up to an hour for outdoor seatings. They don't take reservations and add 4% convenience pass-through fee to non-cash payment types. -Frozen colada $9.50 -bowl of chowder $9.99 -Stuffed quohog app $9.99 for 1 piece. stuffing seemed underbaked and couldn't taste much clam meat. -Grilled shrimp Pesto $26.99 shrimps were pretty good size and 8 pieces served over linguine tossed in Pesto. Linguine was bland. -Grilled swordfish $30.49 with Cajun seasoning and pineapple mango salsa. Flavorful seasoning. -Oyster sashimi $16.50 Six oysters served with Wasabi, soy sauce, sriracha, ginger. Oysters were good but wish the condiments of Wasabi, soy sauce, Sriracha, ginger came on the side rather than already added on oysters as they were too overpowering and way too salty. -Steak tip app $15.99 Grilled perfect with savory horseradish cream sauce! -Lobster roll with fries $29.99 Big portion and reasonable price for cape standards, but bland for my liking. Interestingly we enjoyed the steak tips the most at this seafood restaurant. Great harbor view makes this place one of our new favorites to return to when in the area again.

Relaxing seaside vibe. Old school. Nice deck view of harbor. Friendly and skilled waitress. Delicious frozen drinks. The chowder had the perfect consistency and seasoning. Excellent! The stuffed quahog reminded me of my childhood. I like mine with tobasco, and they had that. If I had to give one critique, it would be that there were a few pesky yellow jackets, but even they seemed pretty chill - for yellow jackets. So, sit inside if you want to avoid those guys. All in all a totally relaxing enjoyable experience.

Bank Street Beach is a popular spot with its long expansive shoreline, food vendors, and easy access to Harwich Port for shopping. Visitors can enjoy the beach during the day or catch a beautiful sunset. The beach offers restrooms and a mobile snack trailer, while kids can have fun climbing the lifeguard tower once the guards are off duty. Although parking can be challenging, visitors can park in town and walk for free.
Absolutely gorgeous! I like coming here for sunset pictures but this is just winter so spring and summer will be sitting on the beach for pictures.

I would love to give it 4.5 stars but the limited parking is the only issue I have with it. Clean family beach with soft sand and surf. Totally would go back, just get your parking sticker early. 😁
Dee D — Google review
Absolutely LOVE this beach. It stretches as far as you can see, it is however connected to other beaches that say "private" but honestly there is nothing to separate them so they view isn't blocked at all, and when you look to the left their is the cove where all the boats dock and also a long line of rocks that go out into the ocean that I have walked out onto many times. However if you do that please be careful as they are slippery and move around alot. But the view from the beach is simply beautiful. When I go is always the "off" season early April so the entire beach is covered in the small shells or other things so I'm not sure if it is cleared of these things in the summer months. One year me and my wife saw the coolest, and strangest thing I've ever seen. We went to the beach and it was covered with what had to be hundreds of horseshoe crab shells all on top of each each. They were all dead, or empty not rally sure as I don't know anything about those strange creatures. But it was quite the sight to see!
David B — Google review
Quiet little beach, especially now that we're past the summer season. Love seeing dogs allowed to visit (also during non-summer). It was windy and a bit chilly while we were here, but not unpleasant!
Alex S — Google review
We come after 4pm when we aren't driving the car with the sticker so as not to have to pay. Seems like a completely different dynamic in the early evening than during the day. You can see the flash of the lighthouse see the tip of Monomoy Island in the distance. Nice to visit during the day or before sunset. There are bathrooms here but only open during the day. Sometimes there is a mobile snack trailer. Kids love to climb the lifeguard tower once the lifeguards are gone for the day. Amazing sunsets when the weather is right.

Cape Sea Grille is a charming restaurant located in Harwich Port, Massachusetts, housed in a 19th-century home. It offers an upscale dining experience with a relaxed and intimate atmosphere. The menu features creative New American cuisine made from carefully sourced ingredients. The restaurant is situated in an area with a rich history rooted in fishing and maritime industries, adding to the overall appeal of the location.
Simply delicious. Had the crispy oysters, grilled salad, and the surf and turf. Each item was absolutely fantastic. We have been traveling across the US and Europe this summer and this was definitely one of our best meals. Great service and Jen, the owner stopped by and chatted with us as well. Her and her husband have created a true winner. Thank you!!

We had dinner for my husband’s birthday and everything was wonderful. From the moment we were sat at this cute table to the desert, we were delighted. The appetizer was very interesting, and the main course was flavorful, but needs some work on decoration. However, I would prefer food to be really tasty, than JUST looking nice. We appreciated the small gesture of placing a candle on the dessert AND glad they did not sing!!! Will definitely come back 😊

Had a wonderful meal the other night. Wonderful restaurant with a very attentive staff. Drinks and food were great. Wish they had Ghost Tequila though. Only complaint is we had to order apps and dinner at the same time. Appetites can change your mind on what you want to eat, especially when it is your first time eating there. They were perfectly timed though and we never felt rushed. Loud energetic atmosphere.

This was our first time dining here. Anastasia was our server. She was very friendly and professional. We arrived right on time and our table was ready for us. We passed on appetizers tonight because we had a late lunch. I had a pan seared piece of veal with creamed corn, mashed potatoes with Gouda and some sautéed mixed vegetables. It was excellent. My partner had a dish with lobster, shrimp, and scallops over pasta with peas, asparagus, and fennel with a sweet chili sauce. He said it was very good. Looking forward to more visits in the future.

Service was genuinely horrible, I’m in the service industry and understand that Saturday nights can be overwhelming, however at a nice restaurant you would expect a certain level of service and it was severrrrely lacking. We had to ask bussing staff to put in drink orders because our Server could not give us any time of her day. I would personally never return because we felt like the service was wildly inhospitable and unkind. Would give it less stars if the food wasn’t good but it was fine. As a member of the service industry you need to be able to leave your attitude at the door and tend to your guests and provide AT LEAST the minimum amount of service required for us to have a pleasant experience.

Food and drinks were good. But overall experience was TERRIBLE!!! We live a mile from the restaurant and have been there many times. We had a 5:15 rez (since we made it just a week ago) and were right on time. We had drinks, appetizers and entrees. When it was time to order desert, our waitress brought menus (around 7:15) and then said we had to be out in 15 minutes because the had another reservation—the first we heard there was a hurry. Since there was no time for desert we then paid. My wife complained to the woman at the desk who said “two hours is industry standard” and they gave us “15 extra minutes”. We have eaten all over the world and never been treated like this. NEVER GOING THERE AGAIN!!!

We have been going to the Cape Sea Grille for years and it just gets better each time. Had the local Stripped Bass special tonight rather than my usual, Swordfish Picatta, and I was not disappointed. Wonderful mix of flavors. Thanks goes to the owners/chef and staff for a delicious and enjoyable night.

What a great place in Harwich for the kids and family to go have some fun when they need a break from the ocean. Even got my mother (in her 70's) to swing by with me this past week and do zip lining for her first time. There was even a group of kids cheering my mom on... great family atmosphere....

Check out Grand Slam. Came here with my friend Sid on a whim after some of our other plans fell through. You don’t really see a lot of locally owned businesses like this much anymore. The owner, who I think is DJ, was super cool. For most of the time - it was just me and my friend, so we did almost everything. The batting cages are a blast, there’s so many different modes. Imma be real with you right now - I was kinda killing it at the high school level… but they even have a wiffleball cage for little kids. But then we did the rock climbing, which came with a free batting cage token if the bell is rung and 2 climbs. Sid and I ended up joining in on a small contest with employees Ty and Kayla to see who could climb one of the walls the fastest. The employees genuinely seemed to want to be there, were having fun, and even went the extra mile. Finally, we did the bumper boats and this was absolutely the highlight. It was just Sid and I but dude, I got absolutely drenched. The boats are so much fun, easy to control, and you don’t just get mildly wet - it’s the real deal. The employees let us basically stay on for however long we wanted while they were closing up. It was an absolute blast. We didn’t try the ziplining or the arcade, but we definitely will be back to do so. The arcade is old-school, they have that glacier balance game and the movie stop one - so fire. You don’t see those a lot anymore. And then shoutout to the owner again because he blessed it with towels at the end. Prices are extremely reasonable too. Had a blast and is truly a highlight of my Cape Cod trip - highly, highly recommend. I’m also gonna include a photo of me in the batting cages because you’re lying if you say it isn’t fire. - Detroit

Harwich Port House of Pizza has always been my family’s go-to hometown pizzeria. In a town where two pizza spots reign, we’ve always chosen Harwich Port House of Pizza for their incredible Greek-style pizza—crunchy crust, perfect consistency, and flavors that never disappoint. The staff is friendly and welcoming, making every visit a great experience. And every so often, we treat ourselves to their chicken special calzone, which is simply unbeatable. Don’t even get me started on their homemade Greek dressing—it’s a must-try! If you’re in Harwich and craving great pizza, this is the spot to visit.

Have eaten here before over the years having their pizza ,which I thought was pretty good. Tonight I decided to have a calzone …bad choice!

Stopped by for a drink around 2:30. Mixed drinks and draft beers were great. $9 for a Fiddlehead, although not a huge pour, felt reasonable. My girlfriend got a raspberry lime rickey, and it was fantastic. The bartender was accommodating as it was not a standard drink on the menu. The bar wasn't too busy and the speakers near the picnic tables were a nice touch.

Went here because of the $1 oysters which my wife wanted. I got the ‘Cajun’ mahi sandwich which was basically a bun soaked in super hot sauce with a few pieces of very soft mushy fish inside. All you could taste was bun and sauce. Crazy disappointing. And they serve what appear to be 10-11 ounce cups of draft beer, are you kidding me. Mid experience at best.
Steven R — Google review
Super friendly service. Lindsey was kind and brought over my mom's espresso martini but before dropping it she asked if she would like her to re-shake it with bailey's (and she did prefer that)! We had the shrimp, and the wings; good shrimp, great wings. The only negative was the excessive use of old bay. It was fine on the shrimp, but kind of overwhelmed the scallops on the scallop roll. The roll is a bit large for the scallop roll and it would be better on a softer, smaller brioche roll. The burgers were fantastic, and the kids liked the hot dogs. We will be back! We also had breakfast there two mornings in a row. The service is friendly and quality is consistent. For the beer garden, you seat yourself and need to place your order at the bar. They give you a number for the table and they bring over the food. The food runners are very efficient, kind and throughtful. It was refreshing to be asked if we needed anything else before they left the table! For breakfast, you order inside and they give you the coffees inside, baked goods inside, and hot sandwiches at the window. Super kid friendly with stroller parking, but don't go for a prime time dinner time with kids; go for lunch, late lunch or early dinner.

My wife and I have been cooking to this spot since 2010, when the hidden gem was a quiet walk down an alleyway off of Main Street Harwich Port. What started as a charming local spot with quality coffee and tasty treats has grown into a full-fledged destination, helping to shape Harwich Port into one of the most desirable places on the Cape. The evolution of Perks has been nothing short of amazing. From expertly crafted coffee and espresso to a breakfast menu with a fun twist, every visit guarantees something fresh and delicious. Their extensive drink menu—frozen lemonade, fruit smoothies, and coffee frappes—offers something for everyone, whether you're kickstarting your morning or cooling off on a warm Cape Cod afternoon. But it doesn’t stop there. Perks is a Beer Garden featuring ice-cold tap beers from coast to coast, along with a full selection of spirits and mixed drinks. Pair that with any of their delicious menu items and you've got the perfect spot for a summer night out. And with live music and a cozy fire pit, the vibe is always just right. Simply put, you haven’t been to Harwich if you haven’t visited Perks. The drinks are cold, the food is incredible, and the atmosphere is unbeatable. Highly recommend this gem of a spot for locals and visitors alike!

Had a great experience at Schoolhouse Ice Cream! There were so many flavors to choose from, it was hard to narrow it down. The staff was super friendly and helpful in describing the flavors and answering any questions we had.

Their flavors are good and they have some of the best prices for ice cream on the Cape. They may be a better value than most as they give you a ton of ice cream, but they are not the best which is why I could only rate them a 4. Still good and cheaper option but I found others to be better as far as taste goes. I can still recommend as it was a good experience.

Absolutely amazing ice cream here and worth the wait. Tons of selections all made in-house. We probably got more ice cream than we needed. Whatever the sizes are, the "real" size is 1, 2, 3, and 4 scoops. So when it says "kiddie", you're actually getting roughly 1 scoop, which is plenty! You can order one size smaller than you think you'll want, save some money and still leave satisfied. We will absolutely be making this place a part of any visit to the Cape.

Seafood restaurant
Pisces Restaurant and Bar is a charming old house that serves Mediterranean-inspired seafood. This cozy eatery works closely with local weir fishermen and day boats, ensuring an ever-changing menu that showcases the freshest fish from Cape waters. With its coastal cuisine drawing inspiration from around the world, Pisces prioritizes the natural flavors of the fish itself over excessive spicing.
We had amazing seafood dishes and salad to start. Karen was so kind and got us a lovely spot at the bar last minute. Highly recommend.

Thoroughly enjoyed our dinner at Pisces! Very small, somewhat choppy sections for the tables but the food was very good! The rib eye steak was cooked perfectly. The mussels app was really tasty. And the service was excellent.

My family and I had an amazing time at Pisces Coastal Kitchen. The food was great, our server was very sweet, the atmosphere was pleasant. We were greeted extremely kindly by the hostess Karren, as she made sure we felt comfortable on a table we specifically requested. Special thanks to her! Overall, our experience was flawless, and we will definitely repeat our dinner there.

Wow. This was our second time here, and the food was incredible as always. My oyster spaghettini special was amazing, and the service was awesome. Desert is incredible- we had the peanut butter pie and espresso martini affogatos that were a perfect end to the night

If you're looking for a night out in Chatham, with some dynamite, fresh seafood fare, add this to your list. On the Cape its hard to find a bad seafood spot, but this one is terrific. Set in a charming house, this restaurant is small in size and a popular spot, so make reservations early. It's got a fun cocktail list and every item on the menu looks better than the last one. I ordered their famous seafood stew which did not disappoint and was delicious. Their wine selection is also terrific and pairs well with their offerings.

We have been coming here for years. This was a huge disappointment. Steak ordered medium rare was medium well at best. Calamari was chewy and bland. Muscles overcooked. Scrod dry. Terrible, overpriced meal. Never again.

The Chef has created a lovely menu, and the atmosphere is "beachy casual." However, there are some areas that management should focus on improving: - The bartender seems to have become complacent; he seems to be more focused on what the servers are doing, as opposed to the patrons sitting in front of him. I would happily have ordered a second cocktail, but could not seem to get his attention. -Wait staff was harried, and the girl with the kerchief on her head started banging artificial candles on the bar next to where I was seated. When I asked her if she needed assistance, she said, "these are just fun to play with. " The level of professionalism of the waitstaff is taking away from the high standards that are coming out of the kitchen.

A Cape Cod treasure! This restaurant had the perfect ambiance — and food!!! We felt relaxed, and right at home. A special thank you to our waitress, Cici, who made our night so special!
