    John's 12 inches of pleasure in P-Town
    Frank B.

    John's 12 Inch's was a tasty treat while hanging in P-Town and would highly recommend pounding one down. The real key to the 12 inch hot dog is the bun. A Massachusetts thing but this simple grilled bun wrapping the full 12 inches makes it. Now add your own sauce or as I used mustard to finish it off. Now there is some other fried items I'll take the dog every day and on the weekend. Grab a seat on the roof to relax and enjoy.

    Clam strips

    This take out place right near the ferry landing is very well known in Provincetown. I have gotten many goodies out of their window throughout the years...hot dogs and clam strips. Their clam strips are golden and crispy, just the way I like them. They have a small and basic menu, but everything is good! Check it out .....

    Lobster roll with small fries
    Ren H.

    My first food stop in Provincetown for a lobster roll. It's an outdoor ordering bar which makes it convenient if you are with pets (I had my dog) but note that it is Cash only. I ordered their lobster roll (market price right now is $28) with small fries ($5). Upon receiving my food basket, I went up the outdoor steps to their deck seating area. The fries were thin and crispy. It was a bit odd but I did find select fries to be more lukewarm compared to the ones that were hot. They may mix fries that have been sitting out longer with the fresher hot ones; it was still good though. Now my lobster roll was delicious. It was super tender and juicy. I took my time eating and savoring each lobster bite. This is such a great place for a quick grab and go meal at an affordable price for this area. I highly recommend checking this out.

    Fast ordering at the window

    Right on the pier. You can find good food here! My mom had a craving for a hot dog and this place hit the spot. The price was right and who can resist cheese fries? I love the quality of bread and the fact that they grilled them to perfection. The cheese sauce was also great. The only thing I would like to see is an upgrade to the actual hot dog meat since this is their name and specialty, but it was still worth the price overall. Make sure if you are looking for a quick bite to check this place out.

    Grillled Chicken Sandwich
    Jasmine L.

    First meal in Provincetown and we were absolutely starving. The hotdog was good, crispy snap texture when you bite into it and juicy on the inside. The bun was also nice and toasted. We asked for the fries extra crispy and I felt like they came out perfect. We got a large portion of fries that fills up like 1/3-1/2 the box! We also got the grilled chicken sandwich which was pretty solid but nothing extraordinary. There's a self serve condiment bar where you can grab dill pickles, onions, relish, ketchup, and mustard. The service was pretty fast and there's an easy parking lot right next door.

    There was a long line here for dinner so we were spontaneous and decided to get some takeout food to enjoy on our patio. This was amazing! For $44, we shared a clam chowder soup, chicken wings with fries, fries clam strips with fries, and fried dough for dessert. Everything was packaged nicely and we even had extra leftovers for the next day..... Would highly recommend this place for a bang for your buck, although I definitely had better clam chowders (not to say this one was bad, but it was thicker than I was used to).

    Back to Cape Cod for a few days, and had to have fried clams at John's foot long. They were crisp, flavorful, and just perfect. French fries were crispy and great. I also got a foot-long hotdog as an accompaniment. It was juicy, and really enjoyable on the crispy, buttered roll. This place never disappoints. Portions are generous. Very yummy!

    Hot dog, fries
    Brittany G.

    Stopped here on vacation and it was one of the few places open in the off season. Loved the flavor of the hot dog and the bun it came in but the fries were a little cold and hard. Pretty central location and right off the water. The service was also very friendly and welcoming!

    Lol this was dinner in P town because everybody else was booked to the hilt for the day. And it was surprisingly good! I had a burger, and I had to try their Portuguese Rice because what an incredibly random thing for a burger stand to have. Turns, out it was really good and the burger wasn't half bad either. Service was quick and the price was right. This is an underrated little place, but I suppose it makes sense in P town where the space is limited. You have to be good to survive in the city! I liked it, you will too! Good for lunch or dinner or maybe a light snack. Try the rice, it's random and it's good.

    Btw I almost forgot to review this place. Another overdue review from our trip. We had a quick bite from here while walking around P-town. There's no seat available for anybody, so you order and eat by the water or by any benches right around there, under a tree. Hubby wanted to try their hotdogs and I had some clam belly. Both came out great! Now I know why they brag about this place. I was surprised to see the portion compared to the price but P-town is a tourist attraction, so, no escape. We made a good choice trying this famous place. Awesome snacks!

    Whole belly clams are not cheap, but they are delicious and served pretty quickly. There is a patio with about 6 tables up the stairs on the side

    Still a great spot for a quick snack. Usually go for a footlong or a regular dog. Never disappointed. Service is fast and friendly.

I decided take out because I didn't want to keep them and sat at the bar where the staff was friendly and warm even as they were wrapping up. The food was stand out in terms of taste and portions. You're getting a good sized meal with leftovers for Ptown Holiday or in my case, holigay . LOL. We had Southern BLT and Old fashioned burger, we were primed for nueske bacon but the menu can be durable for more vegetal and gluten free options that are just as scrumptious. Burger was sizable and cooked perfect to medium request. Bacon was rich but crisp and the Grafton cheddar had a melty sharpness you needed. Fries were hefty with crisp and fluff interior. Awesome onion strings so crispy! Fried green tomato held up well in the sandwich and the BLT was delicious overall. Loved this dinner and was a highlight of my vacation. Definitely recommend going for starting in or take out!
