Whatever you do - don't miss Finely JP's the food is awesome - prices moderate and service great.Call ahead to get your name on the list - it works well. We think it is one of the top 5 restaurants on the Cape - it certainly is the best in Wellfleet - hands down It is chef owned and all the cooking done by JP.

Just stopped by the boulangierie - OMG - Th Croque Monsiuer is to die for ..... AND they have real Macaroons!!!!!!!!!! Not to mention fabulous breads, yummy tarts and eclairs too .....I filled the back of the car on my way home to Hatford....

Thanks for these suggestions.You guys are the best! We were thinking more casual on the Cape and then dinners on Nantucket a little nicer. We will have breakfast at the B&B. So just fun lunch and dinner spots. Or really nice if you all have a suggestion on the Cape for that. (I am sure there are a bunch of :really nice" places).

Where are you staying while you are on the cape? You certainly do not want to drive from Falmouth to Provincetown for dinner!

Good idea saving your food $$ for Nantucket. It is a true dining destination and choosing will be difficult. Whenever we visit Nantucket it is a full blown negotiation whether we restaurant hop from course to course and who orders what!

The Cape - not so much. Lot's of mediocre touristy food. Some great some lousy. And a smattering of special places with a decent and inventive kitchen. Without knowing where you're staying it is hard to come up with favourites.

I disagree w/the previous poster. There are a lot of excellent restaurants here and several have been mentioned. If you tell us what town you are staying in we can give better information.

Hyannis, gomiki.
Could not afford Nantucket, but will go there for a day and leave 8:30pm.

THanks everyone. We are staying at the Inn On the Sound B&B in Falmouth. Thought we would go to Provenctown one day to shop and have lunch. Other than that...Where should I try to get reservations? Do you have suggestions on fun things to do. We are older 60's.

THanks seafox. Can't wait to drive thru the National Seashore. Which restaurants are on the water and good for dinner?

Ocean House-Dennisport. MA

Capecodshanty...I can't wait to go to Boulangierie!! Sounds wonderful!!!!

In Provincetown for a view:The Red Inn has a great view, but the bill can add up. Meals there are always memorable (not unusual to see famous people). Lobster Pot as I mentioned has good "cape" food - fried seafood etc. Another option in the East end of town is Fannizzi. Food is good, family oriented and ask for a table with a view - they are on the water. Lastly Pepe's upstairs has a great outdoor deck an a nice lunch menu.
