3 Best Restaurants on the Water in Yarmouth MA
1. Skipper Chowder House
When it comes to Yarmouth, MA, restaurants, this one should be at the top of your list! Skipper Restaurant and Chowder House features excellent seafood and breathtaking views of Nantucket Sound. This Cape Cod gem has been impressing visitors ever since it was established in 1936. You’ll find an array of mouthwatering selections on the menu, including fresh seafood, Wellfleet oysters, fried Chatham clams, Angus cuts of beef, and of course, their award-winning clam chowder. After a great meal, make sure to stop inside the on-site Ice Cream Shack for dessert. Their delicious sundaes, scoops, and shakes are sure to satisfy your sweet tooth!
2. Tugboats
Are you looking for a more casual waterfront restaurant? Another great option is Tugboats. Overlooking the beautiful Hyannis Harbor, it’s known as one of the best seafood restaurants in West Yarmouth, MA. They are also rated the best outside dining in all of Cape Cod! Once you visit, you’ll see why. Find an intimate table on the heated deck, order a yacht-sized martini, and watch a beautiful sunset over the marina. Cheers!
While Tugboats specializes in seafood, they also offer a great selection of non-seafood, vegetarian, and gluten-free options. We highly recommend the Fisherman’s Platter, the Cape Cod Stew, and the baked seafood macaroni and cheese. And, if you’re craving something sweet, their key lime pie and chocolate tower cakes are legendary!
