    a view of a harbor with boats - A harbor scene featuring boats docked along wooden piers, with houses on a hillside in the background under a clear blue sky. The image is taken from a restaurant window, showing a lobster roll in the foreground, held by a hand. The setting suggests a coastal location with a calm waterway and residential buildings nearby.

    What could be better than a lobster roll at the place where they filmed Jaws. Perfectly toasted roll. Plenty of lobster barely dressed perfectly seasoned. You get what you pay for but $3.75 for a small. Cole Slaw is a bit much.

    This was my first ~authentic~ lobster roll!! It was full of fresh lobster meat, the bun was nice and toasted, and the meal came with chips. For $16.95, I think that's a great deal. On the other hand, I was at a bar earlier that day in Oak Bluffs and they had a lobster roll on the menu for $27..... yeah, no thanks. I don't know what else they put in there but I'm not going to pay that much for a lobster roll. The one from Menemsha Galley was simple, filling, and just perfect. My friend also ordered the clam chowder which was kind of on the thin/watery side but tasted great otherwise. They also have ice cream. I didn't get one myself but I saw a lot of people ordering a cone so it must be good! You order the food outside but they do have some seating in the back, they call it the porch. If you take it to go, the pick up window is right next to the ordering window. If you're staying and eating on the porch, there's a separate pick up window back there so you can wait for your food at your table instead of standing at the front. I would highly recommend this place. Menemsha public beach is within walking distance so the location is great. There's also a long dock next to the Galley where you can see the water and boats.

    The view from the patio at The Galley! So beautiful - A tranquil harbor scene features boats moored along wooden docks, with some boats tied to posts. The water is calm and clear, reflecting the posts and boats. Buildings and houses are visible on the shoreline and on a hill in the background, under a bright blue sky with no clouds. The setting suggests a coastal or fishing village environment.

    Such a great place for a grab and go lunch or eat in the back which is pretty freaking awesome! We didn't take pix of the food because we were to busy checking out the view. Clam chowder was yummy, sword fish Sandwich great. Great go to before the beach or take it with you!

    This is the view from the rocks!

    Excellent lunch spot! Very kid friendly food choices, that cured my hunger today! I got a fluffernutter with a side of chips. If you are very thirsty, I recommend getting a large drink because the medium was small on a hot day. There's no official seating as it's take out, but there are spots to eat on the rocks. A nice view!

    Lobster roll - A lobster roll with lettuce and lobster meat in a paper tray is placed on a wooden table. Nearby, there is a Coca-Cola cup, a bag of potato chips, and some food wrappers. In the background, there are additional food items, a smartphone, and a person wearing a gray jacket. The setting appears to be a casual dining environment, possibly at a seafood restaurant or food stand.

    Very good! Great food, service, and views. The lobster roll was packed with meat and the chips that come with it hit the spot!

    This place is located near the water so a great spot for the sunset. I mean I know we are not here for 5 * service but like the people working here were very young and very unaccommodating. They would not even give us a glass of water. Because we had an awkward interaction with the staff, I was worried they spat in our food or something. We came for the lobster roll which was ok, I do not want a huge piece of sad lettuce in my lobster roll so depends on your preference. The clam chowder was amazing and the crab cake was good too. The ice cream dip was good as well, we had chocolate but they have cherry dip as well. They have a lot of non seafood options which we did not try but if I was to return I would probably only get the clam chowder + ice cream. Theres an area to sit in the back and you can bring your own alcohol since this part of the island is dry.

    A food stand, we were looking for something out of the norm of the lobster rolls you get…read moreeverywhere. We appreciated the creativity of the roll, you don't find a lot of places on the cape trying to be different. We were on the cape for the summer and wanted something different. This was the 6th lobster roll we tried during our summer. This is more like a stand that you would find at a festival. I knocked a star off for the setting. I've come across a lot of these food stands all over the US, and they try the make the best of their low budget location and try to make a cute outdoor seating experience. They have one picnic bench, and the some more seating at this random building right by with rusty chairs. Some folks like us traveled an hour from another place on the cape to try this roll, us Chatham. We aren't taking it home, and had to eat it there. Wasn't any effort made to have outdoor seating. No table settings, lights, streamers nothing. Just one park bench. The roll itself is good, not the best but good and creative. It isn't spicy at all, more like a ketchup mayo on top. The celery dressing, gave it a nice crunch. The lobster is pre-measured in saran wrap. I get that for controlling your cost, it's just a cheap look to watch. Just have a scale and measure there. We got the roll pretty quickly as there wasn't much of a line on a Saturday in July at 11:30. I appreciated the creativity. I think this place could be 5 star with some tweaks on the roll and the setting. I think they could even add some more unique rolls. I want to give it a 3, but I just can't with it being a small business. I think they are on to something that people want a unique approach to a lobster roll. Worth a try, but I wouldn't stress it at its current state.

    What do I say about these lobster rolls? Large chunks of lobster flesh, juicy and fresh, so tasty…read more The buns were filled sufficiently with lobster. I liked that they were innovative in the varieties available. Everyone loved the spicy roll though it wasn't super spicy which was great. The relish and sauce is a great touch. The ambiance is a little bit of a let down because we were in a parking lot where these were sold under a tent and we ate them using the trunk of our car as the table. It would be nice if they added some tables, chairs, and umbrellas. The customer service is very friendly. It was basically run by high schoolers who prepared the roll very expertly!

It's a small pop-up style bakery with a cozy feel, perfect for grabbing pastries and a good coffee to start your morning or treat yourself mid-day.

That's saying a lot because I have sampled many, many croissants. The Yum roll was melt-in-your- mouth delicious with the perfect balance of sweet with a hint of salt, crunchy around the edges and topped with a delightful creamy drizzle of caramel. The plain croissants were perfectly fluffy and flaky. The almond square was pure heaven with a deep almond flavored frangipane surrounded by crunchy layers. The bakery itself is really cute. You can get a chance to meet the owner and gaze upon the glorious bounty of pastries available. You do have to subscribe to order so check out the Butterbang instagram.
