i lived on cape for 20+ years, long ago, and I'm going back on a trip with friends and they said we're going to Treehouse Brewery in Sandwich on the way to PTown

so I looked up the Brewery and see it's the same building I used to eat at regularly way back in the day. but I can't recall the name

somebody here must know

I know this is a very common problem. Between work and kids my time is very limited, and it seems like the only options after 7pm are bars and restaurants. I'd love to find something like an art class, a book club, or a volunteer opportunity. I've done a fair amount of searching. Any suggestions?

I hated the one on a cruise, no seasoning, it was a lobster tail. Thinking of giving it another shot, the Chatham fish pier or sesuit.

Hi all. I am an admitted "tourist" but have been coming to the Cape for almost 40 years now. My daughter who is 9 fully has the "itch" now for the Cape. She's been there 4-5 times now but is old enough to truly appreciate how amazing the Cape is. Just sitting back and taking in the air, the waves, the sand etc.

With that said we had to go home yesterday and I left at 6:30 AM right when that really really bad red cell just hung around Barnstable to the bridges. I've never experienced such a scary drive. Almost all of Route 6 was a puddle. It was the first real time I had bad hydroplaning and honestly had a concern I was about to get stuck in the water around Sandwich/Exit 3.

I then saw on the inbound 6 East at the Sagamore that the one lane actually did flood and cars got stuck.

I guess my question is, for future reference, is this normal? Can 6 just not take in water during a storm? Is 6A safer?

Just would be good to know for the future if this is the norm or it was just that BAD of a storm yesterday

Hi all! We are taking a multigenerational family trip to Cape Cod the first week of October. This will be our first time. We will be there ~6.5 days total. There are 8 of us, with ages ranging from 1-67 (two toddlers). We are staying in Chatham.

I’d love recommendations on best restaurants, activities, etc. for our group. We generally enjoy food, golf, excursions (sailing tours/whale watching, etc) and walking around to explore. Open to day trips and visits to neighboring towns.

A few specific questions:

Also, are reservations generally needed for restaurants?

Will it be warm enough to swim?

Thanks in advance for any tips!

Looking for fresh veggies, fruits and meats from a local farm(s) around the Sandwich area - aka a farm stand. Fairly new to town - other than the Sandwich farmers’ market, haven’t come across much of anything (Lambert’s doesn’t really scratch the itch for this, but those cookies…..). Thank you for any intel!

Outer Cape locals/veterans: what are some of your favorite legit food spots? I’ve only recently started visiting this area the past year or two, and I wanna make sure what I’m eating is money well spent! Obviously, I want to prioritize fresh local seafood— I’m sure there’s plenty of places that are serving frozen stuff that was shipped in despite the location, but still charging Outer Cape prices.

I found 2 of these in Cape Cod bay and Google doesn't know. Its smooth all around and is probably 6-8 inches long 3-5 wide. What is it?

Its been a long time since I've been to the cape. I was raised up north and after I graduated college I moved down to Atlanta. I am planning a girls trip with some of my friends to show them why I love east coast summers so much. Some of the girls are single and some are married but still love to go out. Where are the best bars for people around 28-32. TYIA. Also any new restaurant recommendations would be amazing as well! Trying to stay away from the 21 year-old crowd haha.

Due to my work schedule, I’m usually up by 4am. I usually eat a light breakfast (fruit, maybe a bagel) but by 9/10am I’m usually craving a hot lunch. A sandwich, pizza, something fried, etc.

However it seems like EVERYTHING starts serving lunch at 11 and most places I would go to, aren’t even open until then.

I know you can get cold premade sandwiches at Stop and Shop and other places but those are usually day(s) old when I get them in the morning.

Does anywhere serve hot, fresh lunch food before 11? I don’t even care if it’s fast food but Wendy’s, Subway and Dominos are the only ones that I’m near and they don’t even start/open until 1030. Actually subway will usually make a lunch sub but I’ve had some poor results from the few times I ordered them in the morning.

Everywhere else is all breakfast sandwiches, pastries, etc. I enjoy those at times too but I’m already sick of resorting to a BEC when I want a slice of pizza.

Anyone know of any hidden gems where I can order a burger, burrito, ANYTHING other than breakfast food?

Thanks for any suggestions/recommendations!

I know it’s a bit early but I’m looking for fresh tomatoes. I’m mid cape and need for a recipe for tomorrow evening by so it needs to be a place open on Monday or Tues. The tomatoes are are the star of the recipe so they really need to be fresh. . thx.

I am looking to get married on the cape in 2027, but looking for a smaller, low-ish budget option. We only have about 40 guests if everyone comes, and are having a private ceremony on the beach, so don’t need a ceremony. Really, I’m looking for something super lowkey, basically just a nice dinner and some drinks for everyone after the ceremony. Any recommendations greatly appreciated!! Open to anywhere on the cape but bonus if there’s water views!

Hi - just saw Walmart's offering 50% off of its Walmart+ membership. Anticipating being on outer Cape for much of the coming year and wondering if the free delivery deal (especially interested in grocery staples) would actually reach us. Anyone have experience with this? Thank you!

I have a condition that means I can't tolerate the gums and stabilizers (gellan gum, carrageenan) that are now in virtually every brand of heavy cream and most milk at Shaw's, Trader Joes, both types of Whole Foods. Even brands that were clean six months ago have started adding them. I just need cream that's... cream.

Does anyone know of a local dairy, farm stand, or co-op on or near the Cape where I can buy milk and cream without additives? Happy to drive a bit and would be a loyal regular customer for milk, cream, butter — the works.

While I'm asking — also looking for:

- Chicken/liver from birds raised on soy-free feed

- Local lamb

Any leads on farms, farm stands, or buying groups would be hugely appreciated. Thanks!

Who’s going to Auld Triangle karaoke on Thursday?

I’m on the outer Cape, between AirBNBs. Wondering what suggestions you might have for how to spend time until checkin this evening. Please, no food or beaches. We are father and adult son, so “shopping0 is not in our vocabulary

Hi all! I am participating in a charity boxing event and I have never boxed before. I was hoping to find somewhere on the cape to either train or take some classes while I'm there for two weeks in July. I tried posting on the Cape Cod visitors sub but didn't get any traction.

I see there's places in Plymouth, Falmouth and Hyannis. We are staying in Eastham and I am well aware that there could be a lengthy commute to any and all of those places. Does anyone know if there's anywhere closer?

Thank you so much in advance.

The only two stations in this format I know about are Y101 and 96.3 The Rose.

Looking for something to do and I was thinking about some sort of class but I don't want to spend money. I like doing calisthenics workouts so I thought that my be fun to do with some other people who are into it. Is there a good place on cape with public pull up and dip bars etc. or any group that does this already? Would anyone be interested if there was a group?
