Great lobster bisque and gigantic lobster roll, however the french fries were disappointing and the lunch was definitely way overpriced. Situated inside the Wequassett Resort & Golf Club right by the water the dining atmosphere and view was amazing. Definitely worth recommending.....for the view. read more

Took the family out for a combined birthday celebration last night and we all felt like the staff treated us like royalty. The ambiance, service, and food was outstanding as always. The lobster roll and hanger steak are a must have! Special thanks to our waitress Alex for providing us with an exceptional experience. Her patience with our large group was impressive and greatly appreciated! Highly recommended! read more

Great service, great drinks and atmosphere. The food was delicious, just limited menu.

We had lunch here yesterday on a recommendation and were so impressed! The food was very good and the view was great, but it was the service that made it 5 stars! I had my 9 month old with me and they were so accommodating. It is the first time I actually felt my child was truly welcomed and respected in a restaurant. They even gave her a beautiful stuffed whale to take home. The staff here is top notch! read more

I have to knock the Outer Bar and Grille down a notch this year not because the food has changed, it hasn't, but rather the service has taken a nosedive. I've had two run-ins recently. First I went there for lunch which was fine. I enjoyed a delicious tomato and mozzarella panini while my friends enjoyed their respective sandwiches. The side salad on mine was particularly good. Sadly, the lounge singer on the pool deck sounded like a strangled cat. Apparently they do a kids entertainment thing in the early/mid afternoon. After "singing" a few kids songs recorders were handed out to the children, but they may as well been vuvuzelas. Completely ruined the meal...never again. The second run in involved dinner. Although initially quoted a 1+ hour wait, we were seated in under 30 minutes. There was a terrible catch, the food took 1.5 hours to come. Although good, the chicken and gnocchi dish came without the chicken. When it was sent back they claimed the chicken was in the gnocchi...that is incorporated into the gnocchi (later a side plate of grilled chicken arrived...obvi someone realized how dumb that excuse was). I can tolerate a busy night when things get missed but when they decide to lie to me (esp such a dumb lie) I get irate. I now refuse to go when the clearly undersized kitchen is pressed too hard such that they make moronic mistakes or claims. read more

It is very pricy....but worth it for the location and the food and good drinks / beer list. Now we try to go every year on our annual week in Chatham. They also have about the best kids menu I've ever seen. Great service too - last time we were there they weren't busy and a waitress who wasn't even ours walked a bored toddler around the restaurant for 10 minutes after they bonded over funny faces. Sometimes closed for private events so call ahead. read more

This has always been one of my favorite summertime restaurants. Been going for 5 years. Sadly I noticed a real drop off in quality. Lobster roll is. Now served on a cold hamberger bun and my wives curried chicken had so many grapes in it you could not taste the curry. I only hope they fix it soon as this was a 4 star place. read more

We went to enjoy the sunset and great view of the water last night and had a wonderful time. The bar had great cider and drinks...especially the blueberry lemonade cocktail. Ordered the lobster bisque for everyone and split the fish tacos. The tacos and lobster bisque were overpriced but delicious so oh well! Great service (we got golf carted from our cars to the restaurant) and delicious bread basket with pesto dipping sauce. Live music was great and people were dancing! Would definitely come back! read more

Great Place for a drink in the summer. A little pricey but a beautiful spot

The Wequassett property is one of the most spectacular on Cape Cod to visit while you are in town. Lunch on the deck overlooking the cove is well worth every penny. Lobster Rolls are a must have! This 5 star resort is serving up 5 star service all the way! read more

5 stars for setting and service, 3 for food. For me an overall three represents "I would eat here again, but it's not on the 'have to go back' list" Beautiful place, love the atmosphere, great firepit area. But the food was just so-so....especially for the price. Service was great, though. We will go back for drinks on a beautiful summer night since it is right around the corner from where we live. But, most likely, we will not be eating dinner here. read more

This is my favorite place on Cape! I live here year round and I can't wait for the summer when I can get a night off and come down here with my boyfriend. The prices are typical Cape prices but the atmosphere is what really draws us. The food is always consistent as is the service. We were here last week on a very very busy night, our server Melanie, although busy, was very sweet and attentive. It took the bar a while to get our drinks out, but that was quickly remedied by the manager. We will be back as soon as possible! read more

I recently met some coworkers at the Outer Bar and Grille. The setting was magnificent overlooking Pleasant Bay, the service was attentive and pleasant and the food was so-so. We all had the fish and chips. the fish was excellent, fresh and light. The heaping pile of french fries were tasteless and the coleslaw was warm and tasted as if it came out of one of those huge plastic jars. For $21 I would hope that they could find a better french fry and have freshly made coleslaw. Captain Frosty's in Dennis has the best fast food fries. I still haven't found anyone who can make a "real" coleslaw. read more

The white pizza was terrible I don't know how anyone could handle this amount of cheese. It took them about 45 min for us to order. Our waitress was very rude. I definitely do not recommend this to a Friend read more

Had lunch today at the outer beach bar and grill. Had to wait about 20 min, but didn't mind on this beautiful day. Excellent service, but the food was mediocre. I ordered the grilled eggplant and Portobello sandwich which was rubbery and so dripping in sauce that it didn't stay together even while sitting on the plate. Other guests ordered chopped salad...no dressing and minimal toppings and fried clams which were overcooked and chewy. This was our third attempt at dining here and don't think we will attempt again. Breathtakingly beautiful setting and friendly service but expected more from the food. read more

Went by boat with 6 guests to the outer bar on Saturday 7/6, around 3:15. i live in Chatham and have done this often. Dock help was excellent, no issues... However when we walked into the empty table area at the bar, we thought this was great - no wait! There were several patrons at the bar and 2 high tops occupied. We were then asked by a waitress/ manager if we were staying at the hotel. Of course we said no, just pulled up to have drinks/snacks. We were told the table area (that was empty) was reserved for guests until 4pm !!!! There was not 1 person in this patio area! Where is the common or business sense in this inane response? Did she not realize it was change over day? This put a damper on our day and will be heading to CBI where seating is never refused. After all, as residents we put up with wequassett traffic all summer, the least they could do is let you order a drink...... read more

Unfortunately this has gone down the tubes. What started a few years ago as a destination for us has turned into an awful service experience, poor food, and even food poisoning. Sorry, but the pretty landscaping won't keep me coming back here again. read more

We are from Chatham and came here for family dinner. It felt like we were on vacation. Great service, great food/drinks, great atmosphere.

Wequassett is an amazing place to have lunch outside during the summer. The views and ambiance are so great. We generally go there a few times during the summer season. While the prices are up there it is well worth the trip. The food is good - nice selections. Only comment is that their staff needs more training. First, in an elegant place the wait staff should know where the food goes (who ordered what?) instead of just floundering with plates to figure out where they go. In addition, if an ordering mistake is made (whether guest or staff) it should be honored and instead of the wait staff chastising the guest "that is what you ordered" instead of listening to the fact that the guest had made a "mistake" - go back to the kitchen and make it right - not make the guest feel ashamed -and even threaten that the guest needs to "pay" for two entrees. Not good customer service. Mistakes happen on both sides - move on. Having said the above - it was really one wait staff person - the others bent over backwards asking about our lunch etc. So it is only this one small thing that seriously affected my visit - I felt I was being scolded as if I was 10 years old. OMG I made a mistake! Serious customer service needed for 1 wait staff person. A truly great place to visit --- read more

They only take reservations for parties of 8 or more. If you are not a guest staying at the resort you are put on a separate waiting list & resort guests are seated first. We waited an hour to be seated. This though when we arrived there were many vacant tables and we were there before 6pm. When we were seated, we ordered 2 pizzas & a cold curried chicken salad. We waited another hour for our food. The chicken salad was good, the pizzas were barely warm. We declined coffee as we did not want to wait till the next morning for it to arrive. If you are not a guest, great for cocktails at the pool bar but plan on dining elsewhere. Too many great restaurants to waste your time waiting/ eating here. read more

We read all of the reviews and were quite disappointed, as the Outer Bar and Grille has become a family summer tradition for us. While our expectations may have been slightly dampened by what we read, we decided to keep with our tradition and head to the Outer Bar, as we had not shared the same negative experiences reported by the others who commented. I am happy to report that our tradition lives on! We had a delightful drink at the bar to star, where we were served by a friendly bar tender with a sense of humor and listened to a decent band. We were met by a very friendly hostess who sat us on a busy night without reservations in a reasonable period of time. Our waitress also was very warm and helpful. Our meal was served in a reasonable amount of time, the food was hot and pretty good (large portions and, if anything, too many fries). We would rate the food and service a 4; it's not fine dining and doesn't pretend to be. The reason we go to the Outer Bar is the picture perfect setting, gorgeous Pleasant Bay views, cool summer breeze off of the water, and the festive atmosphere. Once you factor those in, the overall experience provided by the Outer Bar and Grille is a 5, and worth making (or in our case continuing) a family Cape Cod summer tradition! read more
