The seasonal shack opens the Thursday before Memorial Day part-time until the Cape’s summer season is in full swing through Labor Day. From 11:30 a.m. to 1 a.m., you can enjoy the quintessential toes-in-the-sand summer ‘Combers hip vibe.
What To Order At The Beachcomber
When you want to stay local, try Drink The Pink, made with Dry Line Rose Gin from South Hollow Spiritsin Truro, mixed with another local favorite — cranberry. The seafood is perfection on a plate. I order the fried clam strip plate or the fried oyster plate and a cold draft. It is the essence of summer at the beach. Pro Tip:The Beachcomber parking lot is $30 (9 a.m.-6 p.m.). You will receive a voucher that can be redeemed for food and/or merchandise.
Harwich

What To Order At Outer Bar & Grill
If you want to luncheon high-end, opt for the Platinum Caviar with house-made chips — yes, please. A local, and more wallet-friendly option, is the steamed little neck clams with chorizo. Add on a draft Handline Kölsch brewed at the Devil’s Purse Brewing Companyin neighboring Dennis for a Cape Cod lunch to round out this local feast. Pro Tip:Wequassett is a popular weekend wedding destination, dining mid-week tends to be less crowded.
Chatham
One of the best waterfront views with a sumptuous menu is on the porch at The Veranda, a Chatham Bars Inn dining option. This seasonal restaurant operates on a first come, first served basis, making it accessible to everyone. Keep in mind the porch dining is weather dependent.
What To Order At The Veranda
It is difficult to pass by the local lobster with cognac sauce. Add a glass of prosecco and you will be living la dolce vita. There is nothing like amazing cuisine, chilled bubbly, and a gorgeous view to add some luxury to your getaway. Pro Tip:Opt for a light lunch so you can enjoy an early dinner and beat the crowds; dinner service begins at 4 p.m.
Hyannis
With views of busy Hyannis Harbor and the ferry terminal, Baxter’s Boat Clubhas been the local hangout for decades. Locals and tourists alike flock to Baxter’s for classic seafood done right.
What To Order At Baxter’s Boat Club
The stuffed quahog is one of the best plates on the Cape. I also love their seafood bisque loaded with lobster, scallops, and shrimp — a perfect coastal bite. The whole belly clam plate is waterfront dining perfection for anyone who loves clams. If you are looking for a massive plate of seafood, order the Captain Baxter’s Seafood Platter; it’s piled with whole clams, scallops, shrimp, and haddock. Pro Tip:Ask for a seat on the outside deck for the best views.
Dennis
Open from April to October, Sesuit Harbor Cafeis located in Northside Marina with views of Sesuit Harbor and Cape Cod Bay. The outdoor seating is an arrangement of picnic tables between the clam shack and the waterfront. This is no-frills dining at its finest. Line up to place your order, grab a table, and wait for the runner to deliver your tasty dinner fresh from the kitchen.
What To Order At Sesuit Harbor Cafe
Everything you order at Sesuit Harbor Cafe is amazing. We pack a cooler with a few brews and some crisp white wine — the cafe is BYOB — and plan our seafood extravaganza as we queue up to order. This is one of our favorite spots to order a lobster roll. The lobster is perfectly cooked and piled high in a classic hotdog roll. Pro Tip:Sesuit Harbor Cafe is cash only; no credit cards are accepted.

What To Order At Tree House Brewing Company
The King Julius double IPA is one of their signature brews along with the Haze double IPA. My favorite is the dark and rich Tree Of Life Vanilla Bean. The best way to sample a few options is to reserve a taproom spot and share a few tastes, then place your order for pickup. Pro Tip: Parking is an issue. They have a few spots for guests, and a few more for pickup, otherwise you need to pay and park in the First Beach parking lot. There is free parking at the Sandcatcher Recreation Areanear the...

What To Order At Mattakeese Wharf Restaurant
The fried fish has a light and crispy batter encasing perfectly cooked seafood delicacy. I love the Cape Cod Reuben — expertly battered and fried cod on rye bread with all the traditional Reuben fixings. Add a side of potato salad or pickled cukes to round out this terrific luncheon. The clam chowder is outstanding and always a winner. If you are a fish and chips devotee, you will be a very happy customer — you will undoubtedly clean your plate. Pro Tip: Mattakeese is adjacent to the Hyannis...
Provincetown
Pepe’s Wharf Restauranton Commercial Street in Provincetown (P-town to Cape Codders) is just far enough off the main drag to offer a peaceful repast. Walk to the end of a charming alleyway and you will find the hostess station — just follow the signs. With a pretty view of Provincetown Harbor from the various porches, Pepe’s is a wonderful spot for lunch and dinner. To get great seating, eat off main dining times and arrive before the crowds.
What To Order At Pepe’s Wharf Restaurant
The Super Lump Crab Cake served with a zippy remoulade is a wonderful starter. For lunch, it is hard to beat their Crispy Fishwich; the batter-dipped cod is one of the best on Cape Cod Bay. Add a Sam AdamsSeasonal Summer Ale for the best waterfront dining combo — fried fish and a brew. Pro Tip:Pepe’s porches are dog-friendly, which can be an important consideration. One note: They allow only one dog per table.
