Breakfast

Island Kitchen – Some of the best breakfast on the island! We love the huevos rancheros!

Jack & Charlies - Serving local roasted coffee and freshly baked scones!

Black-Eyed Susan’s – Great little breakfast spot right in downtown. It is a very popular spot, so we recommend arriving early to beat the rush.

Lemon Press - A refreshing & healthy downtown café with fresh juices and smoothies. You can either grab a quick smoothie to go or sit down for breakfast.

Brant Point Grill - Located at The White Elephant hotel, Brant Point Grill overlooks the Nantucket Harbor and is known for their signature lobster bloody mary!

Born and Bread – Delicious breakfast sandwiches and pastries for a grab and go breakfast option.

The Corner Table – A great coffee house to start your morning before taking a walk through town.

Nantucket Meat & Fish – Mid-island gourmet market with coffees and bagels.

Bartlett’s Farm - The best build your own breakfast sandwiches and local treats. Highly recommend getting breakfast sandwiches to go and enjoying on Ladies Beach right down the road.

Lunch

Something Natural – Known for huge sized sandwiches served on wicked fresh bread! A short walk from town so we like to eat at the picnic seating there. Highly recommend ordering a half as the sammies are BIG.

Provisions – Great place to pick up breakfast or lunch sandwiches before the ferry. Get the turkey terrific or BLT!

Fresh – Small sandwich shop located inside a liquor store. Grab a sandwich and drinks before heading to the beach!

Cru – Located right on the harbor with amazing views of the water. Great coastal cuisine and our favorite lobster roll on the island!

Millie’s Nantucket – Casual coastal fare restaurant located in Madaket. The 40th pole quesadilla is a must!

167 Raw – Great food truck for a quick grab-and-go lunch. Just a short bike ride from town and walking distance to Cisco Brewers!

Dinner

Reservations highly recommended for all evening dining … check websites for when reservations become available, some are one month, two weeks or one week out. 

Lola 41 - A diverse menu featuring everything from sushi to their famous Lola Burger. Don’t skip the macaroni and cheese— it really is that good!

The Pearl - An upscale dining experience with incredible dishes. Must try the wok fried lobster!

American Seasons - Cozy dining room and a darling covered outside patio; New American seasonal menu.

The Galley – Beautiful setting on Galley Beach serving American cuisine. One of the best places on island to watch the sunset.

Gaslight - Fun late night music scene right in town.
