RESTAURANTS (These are just the ones we have tried; many more to choose from)
Savory (link is to Facebook) – 316 Rt. 6, Truro – When it’s time to go out for a meal, we never get much further than Savory. Handmade pizzas and wraps, subs, grinders, panini, hoagies, wedges, salads and awesome breakfast sandwiches. But the real reason to go is for their unparalleled baked goodies, and casual, friendly atmosphere. It’s Truro’s version of a small-town diner. Menu
Sweet Escape – And the other real reason to eat at Savory is that Sweet Escape shares a space with them: the best ice cream, and the widest selection of flavors that you’re going to encounter on this vacation.
Moby Dick’s – 3225 U.S. 6, Wellfleet – Big place right on Rt. 6. Can’t miss it. All the traditional seafood comfort food. Very casual. Get one of their t-shirts, wear it to an exotic place next vacation, send them the pic and they’ll put it on their wall. Most staff are students from around the world on a summer adventure; ask them about their home countries. Menu
PJ’s – 2616 U.S. 6, Wellfleet – Wide range of seafood comfort food. Very casual. Another family tradition. Actually, one of many places like it on Rt. 6 in Wellfleet and Eastham. Menu
Whitman House (link is to Facebook) – Rt. 6, just south of Savory – Mid-price full-menu dinners. Old, traditional; this is where we had our wedding reception in 1979. Menu
Montano’s – North of the Highland Light exit on Rt. 6. Italian and other specialties; homemade pasta. Early bird specials on weekends. Menu
Captain’s Choice – 4 Highland Rd., North Truro – Full menu of seafood, both standard comfort food, and some really tasty specialties – unusual and memorable. It’s owned by a long-established, local seafood wholesaler. Menu
Chequessett Chocolate – For returning guests, we’re sorry to say that Chequessett Chocolate is no longer in business.
Blackfish – 17 Truro Center Rd. – (508) 349-3399 – Right in downtown Truro, just north of Jam’s and the PO. Expensive and elegant food in an informal atmosphere. Check the menu before you go.
Wicked Oyster – 50 Main St., Wellfleet – Breakfast, lunch, dinner. Full menu, upscale, little pricey. We’ve had good breakfasts and dinners there. Menu
Bookstore and Restaurant – Location – Right on Wellfleet Harbor – “A funky year-round seafood institution,” according to Google Maps. We had Easter dinner here and loved it. And the attached bookstore is funky, too – don’t miss it. Menu
Box Lunch Good, quick, hand-made food. Breakfast and lunch. Wellfleet, Truro, Provincetown
