Absolutely great service and we got half tea half lemonade over ice and it was so delicious. Thank you for the great service.
What to do when all the other restaurants have closed and you are so hungry. What is better than a platter of very fried fish and chips or clams. There is no space to sit down just order at the window. Guess what? It worked. Service is fast and my meal was hot. Great post bar crawl spot.
Conveniently located by the ferry pier. Stopped for a quick bite before heading back to Boston. Fried shrimp was good, staff were friendly and many options on the menu.
My husband wanted to stop here so we got the fried clam basket. It came with a lot of clams and lots of fries, super good and the employees were friendly!
Stopped in for a quick bite to eat before our whale watch. Got dogs and chicken fingers. You order at the counter down on the street. They have an upstairs seating area full of tables with covered umbrellas. I was surprised - on a Friday afternoon (3pm) in august - the upstairs was empty. We had it to ourselves. Good food made quickly. We only had 20 minutes to eat before our whale watch and John's delivered.
Delicious crab sandwich. As someone that grew up eating Maryland crab I am very picky about my seafood. Their crab sandwich is next level. Quick service even on Memorial Day weekend. I could have done without the shrimp sandwich personally because it was not explained well. I thought I was getting a mayo or butter based shrimp sandwich but it turned out to be more like Po' Boy. Some may love it, just not my personal favorite and would have not ordered it if I knew the shrimp was fried
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.
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 .....
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.
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.
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).
I wasn't expecting John's to have some of the best food I ate in Cape Cod, but it sure was. I love the lobster roll here... one of the better rolls I've had. The reason: so much knuckle meat! My personal favorite part of the lobster. None of the flabby claw tips (iykyk) I always end up picking out. A sprinkle of sea salt would've done me in. Crab roll, very delicious and great value, must order. Fried scallops, very good. Hot dog, very good (I should've ordered the foot long). I would definitely come back and recommend John's to friends! read more

This place is my go-to every time I'm in P-town! I just love it--they have great food at really good prices. I always go for their clam chowder, and I honestly think it's outstanding. It's super creamy and loaded with clams! The fish and chips are great too. I just noticed they're offering lobster rolls now! I didn't try one during my last visit, but it definitely gives me another reason to come back. I highly recommend this place if you're in P-town! read more

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! read more

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. read more
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! read more

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! read more

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 read more

They were somehow severely understaffed for being in the off season. We were in line forever to order and then took awhile for the food to come out. HOWEVER it was worth the wait. That lobster roll was probably one of the best I've ever had! Highly recommend, even if there is a line read more

It may not look like it from the outside but this place has an amazing cold lobster roll! It's simply a huge pile of delicious lobster lightly tossed in mayonnaise and crammed in a buttery toasted roll. The best $20 lobster roll I've ever had. read more
This stand stands on the left as you approach Commercial Street from the pier. Service by the little old lady that tended our window was a bit slow, but the whole fried clams in our order were fat and hot, and the fries crispy and hot and tasty. The coleslaw was pretty standard and pretty good - like KFC in quality, but not in texture (KFC's is in smaller bits), if you'll take that as a compliment. You grab your own ketchup and tartar sauce on the side by pumping some into a little cup you get at the window. When we ordered, a whole fried clam plate with fries and cole slaw was about $22 plus change. There were a few tables upstairs for the convenience of their customers. We took one of the tables with an umbrella attached. The tables are a little close to one another, but it is a nice option. read more

Not being a seafood eater, it was good to find a place in Provincetown that's not 95% seafood. I opted for the chicken fingers and fries. They are cooked to order, so expect a little wait for your food. There were six, good sized chunks of chicken breast in the order. More than enough for a meal. Heads up - This is a cash only place. Leave your plastic in your room. read more

Definitely the best lobster roll I have tasted in Massachusetts. I still think Maine has better ones but this one is tasty and they don't skimp on the lobster. If they worked on the roll itself, it could be that much better. The cheesy fries were also equally delicious and although it is not the traditional side for a lobster roll, I enjoyed them very much. The customer service is also great but do note that this is a cash only establishment! read more
