Provincetown has many great places to eat!
Delicious lobsters!
Well-fed and Happy!
If armies travel on their stomachs its safe to say the same is true for tourists. No one has ever gone hungry visiting Provincetown.
The real surprise for our visitors is the diversity and quality of our food – from local, ethnic “fast food” to outdoor cafe fare to the gourmet cuisine served in elegant dining rooms of historic mansions. All of Provincetown’s restaurants are locally owned and express the individual owners tastes and commitment to their cuisine. Most are open from early spring through the New Year, and some remain open throughout the winter months.
Fresh local seafood is readily available: steamer clams, oysters, scallops, mussels, squid, bluefish, tuna, swordfish, and lobster, served in a variety of styles, most notably Portuguese.
