BLT
Caroline D.

The most delicious BLT on fresh ciabatta bread! Came back to get them twice last week! Nice seating surrounded by flowers out in front of the shop.

One of the several anachronistic little general stores that have managed to survive on the island, Katama General Store has change quite a bit over the years. It's still small and kind of dumpy looking from the outside but over the years has acquired more of a gourmet flavor to it. They still have great coffee and freshly baked pies, cookies, breads and scones and still offer locally grown fresh produce but now offer more of a selection of touristy gifts. They will also prepare meals for the busy tourist on the go. Not necessary a bad thing but the store is no longer as quaint and rustic as it once was. It's not all junk food, the store has great sandwiches and salads and a nice variety of juice and healthy drinks. It's a great place to stop on the way down or back from south beach since it is the only place serving food or even water between Edgartown and the beach. You can sit outside and enjoy a sandwich, some fresh produce or more importantly something to drink while you watch the world go by. I usually am dry as the sand by the time I return from hiking along the south beaches and this place is always a welcome sight. When I feel like I'm about to expire of thirst, it appears like an oasis in the desert. Sure, it's not cheap but then nothing on the Vineyard is. Even though the store has unfortunately changed a bit and now caters more to the tourist population it still manges to retain some of the old-fashioned, personality of the general stores of the years gone by. Always an enjoyable place to stop and eat, sit, talk and just enjoy the island.

“This place is definitely not the cheapest place - but nor is the Vineyard, so I deal with it.”

very nice and quiet in here, compared to all the other places i've eaten at on the cape the quiet…read morewas nice! food was super yummy, my first time having mustard bbq sauce and i am CONVERTED!! sweet sauce has nothing on mustard bbq sauce. mac n cheese was very good too, very crumbly on top, i took it to go and wanted to eat the rest in the car ride home lmao. service was quick and attentive. recommend if you need a break from pastries and sea food lmao

We have gotten take-out dinners from RRBBQ for the last three years while vacationing at the cape…read morein nearby Chatham. The food is always excellent. We order by phone and the food is generally ready in a reasonable amount of time. This time we got 2 Large Plates-1/2 Rack Spare Rib Plate and 1/2 LBS Pulled Pork Plate. They both come with sauce, corn bread, honey butter, and cole slaw. You also get to choose a side. We chose Mac & cheese which is very good. The corn bread is very good and the cole slaw is standard. The portion size of sides that come with the meals are not particularly big, so we added more-corn bread (a family favorite), Cheddar Mac and Cheese, and Cowboy Beans which are an interesting (in a good way) type of baked beans with kidney beans. This was plenty of food for our family which consisted of three adults and three little kids. The dining room looks nice, so we may try it out when the kids are a bit older. Looking forward to enjoying more deliciousness next year.

The food here has no business being so gosh darn good! I've been driving past this spot due years…read morebecause I didn't want to go bowling when I was camping. I'm happily surprised with the food and service. They have a well thought out covid procedure including hand sanitizer, distanced tables, outdoor check out, servers with masks, and barriers that ensure safety for their outdoor dining despite being in a parking lot. Main course: Fried chicken with gravy was so good! It was most and crunchy! What a treat! The pulled pork was great too! I heard that the burnt ends were a bit too saucy for our liking but still good. Sides: Brussel sprouts kinda looked overcooked but tasted great, coleslaw was actually enjoyable, the mac and cheese was okay but had a weird smokey taste (not like the pulled pork, this seemed a bit off, but overall good). The collard greens were very garlic forward. I can't believe this bbq spot has been here and i just never knew. If it weren't for the pandemic i wouldn't even have known that people actually ate at a bowling alley. I'll definitely be going back.

I used to love this place, but the last few takeout orders were horrible…read more.. The smoked chicken tenders were so dried out and tough we threw them away. I suspect they were pre-cooked and dropped in the fryer before offering them up. And more than once, things were missing in the order, might be a good idea to check before getting home, but doubt I'll return.

My first BBQ at Bark in Plymouth and I can't wait to go back!…read more Celebrating my husband's birthday at a BBQ place was not my first choice, but he loves BBQ and I knew I had to find a restaurant to celebrate him. After mulitple searches and many recommendations we settled on Bark BBQ in Plymouth. I was in contact with one of the owners letting them know that we would be coming for my husbands birthday on a Wednesday and for lunch. I was hoping they would have candles which they did and the communication was very easy. Once we walked in (the restaurant is on Court St in Plymouth) but not near the center. It wasn't hard to find, but I was trying to make it a surprise so I put the closest place that I could find in Maps. I immediately knew the owner. I actually read all about his story from the beginning. I love it when I can support a husband and wife duo who own and operate a small but mighty restaurant together. I will try and not make this so long, but it is cute inside with tavern like table and chairs, a big selection to choose from, and really nice and passionate people. We shared the 3 meats and 3 sides. Now, I don't normally eat BBQ, but let me tell you we both devoured almost everything we ordered (hello leftovers). I personally loved the brisket and fall-off the bone ribs OMG. The cole slaw, potato salad, and baked beans were also delicious. We also washed everything down with one of their Kolsch beers from Mayflower brewery. And, for dessert we shared their banana pudding...probably the best I have ever had. If you are looking for a great BBQ place this IS WORTH THE DRIVE. From the scrumptous food to the nice staff and owners, we absolutely will be back. Only about 40 ish minutes from Quincy but even if you live a bit further, definitely make the trek to Bark BBQ because you won't be disapppointed. Cheers~

I was able to play with wood day working and I was looking for a good barbecue place I looked up…read moresome spots on Google and they came across this place, which was right around the corner. It's right off the main road in Plymouth and there's a lot of parking. Inside the place pretty spacious there's a lot on the menu that they offer but if I'm gonna go there, I need to try the ribs and mac & cheese I have to say it was pretty impressed. They have their own barbecue sauce with a few to pick from and the prices are really good if you're in the area you should definitely come out and try this place. It's worth the drive.
