Our favorite date night spot when we're on Cape Cod. We prefer to sit at the bar, it's always great for conversation. We love the scampi ala Gina, veal parmesan and chicken dijon. Don't forget an order of clams casino!
This quickly became our favorite spot for a casual date night. Yet again, we like to sit at the bar for people watching & a guaranteed conversation. His favorite: small cheese pizza. Her favorite: small greek salad with grilled chicken.
By far the best fried seafood in the area - grab a clam strip roll, a cup of chowder & a root beer to-go and drive to Corporation Beach for the sunset.
This has been our "rest stop" since we started coming down the Cape together a few summers ago. During busy summer Fridays there's usually a wait for a table, but they've got a great raw bar outside so you can put your name in, grab a few shrimp cocktail and wait with a view. On colder days, there's a cozy fireplace inside and they also have live music at the bar!
We recently discovered this spot when we were on the hunt for good sushi in the area. The interior will have you feeling like you've been transported to Japan, and the food was overwhelmingly delicious. We shared a few rolls, sashimi and the chicken katsu and would HIGHLY recommend.
One of our favorite local spots. We like to grab a seat at the bar and have a few apps by the fireplace.
If you want to eat on the water, you cannot beat Sesuit. Come for breakfast and make sure to grab a blueberry scone. Come for lunch and do not miss the lobster roll. Order at the counter & grab a picnic bench. Dogs welcome, BYOB :)
For a more formal dinner on the water, the Ocean House is the spot. Looking for something more casual? Grab a drink and a bite to eat at the outdoor tiki bar.
Love the breakfast sandwiches at this fun cafe, but don't sleep on the pizza. Everything is made from scratch and 100% delicious.
Let's just say - croissants. We discovered this place after many drive-bys and finally figured out their hours. Incredibly flaky, authentic croissants. His pick: almond, hers: classic plain. Add an Americano and call it breakfast!
A sweet breakfast spot featuring diner classics and muffins the size of softballs. Dog lovers: rejoice! They've got the cutest golden retrievers out front to greet you.
If you have a big appetite for breakfast make SURE to put this on your list. Phone your burrito order in ahead of time, grab & go. We like to park at Chatham Light and take it all in.
This ice cream shop has relocated since being around the corner from Rachel's family's home, but it's our favorite ice cream on the cape!
The most beautiful beach we've ever been to, and the location of our engagement. Perfect for a morning walk, or breath taking sunsets!
You might recognize this beach from our save the date :) The tide goes out very far making for an impressive stretch of beach, perfect for a long walk!
A smaller beach where the parking lot overlooks the water. Grab a cup of coffee from Kender Sisters up the road and enjoy a peaceful morning.
During the off-season we spent a lot of time at this 3 building antique center. We found our dining room chairs and some incredible artwork here. It's easy to get lost & spend lots of time rambling around. Enjoy!
A perfect rainy day activity, even if it's a quick one. Go for the free bag of chips at the end ;)
Last year at this time the brewery was having a great event with food trucks and live music. A fun outdoor atmosphere!
A bit of a drive from our venue, but well worth it. This Vineyard is so beautiful, has on-site food trucks and a distillery.
A beautiful farmstand, with a heartwarming story, that has fresh produce, artisanal meats & cheeses as well as outdoor plants. Check their hours before your visit - it can vary in the off-season.
Our favorite spot to sit & eat our Corner Store burritos. Want to burn off that hefty breakfast? Take a stroll along the seashore and see if you can spot any seals!
One of our favorite spots on Cape Cod. We bring Charlie here frequently because it's a super-friendly for offleash dogs. Humans welcome too! Beautiful views of the water and clean, pristine. trails. Just know you'll definitely run into some 4-legged friends!
A beautiful new studio in close proximity to the venue. Brendan and Rachel have taken a few classes here and love to stop next door, at Three Fins for a treat afterwards :)
For the golfers out there!
Another option for the golfers!
One of the most beautifully curated shops, located in Dennis Village. The owner has an eye for Parisian design and stocks many of her goods straight from Paris.
The #1 spot for your Cape Cod gear. Grab a cozy sweatshirt for chilly nights as a fun memento.
Brendan's go-to shop for all things fishing. Rachel likes to sit in the car, or get dropped off at TJMaxx across the street ;)
A great local surf shop with TONS of gear. Cool hats, sun shirts, sweatshirts & more!
A new shop in Dennis village, with a great selection of active brands, YETI merchandise & more.
An adorable shop, stacked floor to ceiling with handmade pottery.
