Went to order breakfast 2 weeks ago around 9:30 am. Got to the front of the line and they said they were entirely out of all breakfast ingredients (how a deli with breakfast service simultaneously runs out of all eggs, English muffins, bagels, bacon, lox, and frittata is beyond me.) went back today. Arrived around middle of breakfast service. Got to the front of the line and they said they were out of all 7 types of bagels. Considering 2 of the four breakfast items involve bagels, that's not great. I ordered egg sandwich on English muffin ($9 and they hold device out and watch as you select tip amount. Can we stop with the tips on counter service already). I waited on nearby bench over 30 minutes for my food. When you are only offering two menu items for breakfast, neither really customizable, it shouldn't take over a half hour. Requesting a tip is even more egregious given the abysmal speed and service. Food was tasty enough, but was essentially an egg mcmuffin at 4x the price and 1/60th the speed. Decent food but bordering on unacceptable service and value. They should be thankful they have a captive audience on the island read more

Cool little sandwich place right at the wharf a stone's throw from the High Speed Hy-Line Ferry. A great place to grab sandwiches on the way to/from the ferry or for a picnic/hike/beach trip. We sampled the Turkey Terrific which was interesting to try and very filling. Cash only, so be aware. One lady after me had no cash, no ATM card, and only an American Express. Not a smart idea for the island where many places take cash only and American Express is rarely accepted due to the high fees. Leave your platinum card behind unless you want to go hungry! read more

The young, slender brunette female cashier working on Monday 8/8 stole money from me. I stopped in to grab a cold drink to go on a muggy afternoon. She seemed annoyed and acted as if she couldn't be bothered. Then I saw that she added a 60% tip for herself (for such exceptional service) when I got my receipt by email. read more

I stopped in here after *hours* of weighing the pros and cons via Yelp of the many sandwich shops in Nantucket's downtown. I ordered the 'other turkey sandwich,' and it was phenomenal!! It was full of turkey, guacamole, cheese, bacon, and arugula. Plus the pickled red onions and horseradish mayo were delicious! The bread was the softest bread I've ever tasted. It was like eating a cloud. Honestly, this may have been the best sandwich I've ever eaten, and I've eaten a lot of sandwiches! The staff was friendly and the full sandwich ($12) could easily make 2 meals, if you're a light eater. I couldn't find any napkins in the cafe or a restroom or wifi, but everything else was great, and I would definitely return here for that incredible sandwich!! read more

Always a long line out the door for this quality sandwich shop! A definite staple of Nantucket with ferry goers flocking to the proverbial provision dock for the "original" bacon egg sandwich (please add crushed avocado for a little something extra)--beware that their breakfast closes at 10:30! On comes the lunch menu, we had egg salad sandwich which had a zest of lemon and a sprinkle of cayenne for a light taste. I also ordered the caprese sandwich with a garlic basil olive oil pesto, mozzarella, tomato yum yum!!! I loved that caprese sandwich so much that I went back the next day! Great to eat next to the gazebo outside or take on a hike or to the beach. These well wrapped sandwiches are easy to go! I also ordered an iced tea and iced coffee. read more

Stopped here for lunch after getting off the ferry. I got the BLT and it was phenomenal! Crispy bacon, soft and fresh herbed bread, and thick slabs of ripe tomato. Service was a little slow, but it was super busy. Would definitely go back!! read more

My favorite place for sandwiches. Turkey Terrific is a must Devour. It is Roast, Sliced Turkey, Stuffing, Cranberry Sauce, Mayo (i think) on Fresh White Bread all served warm- Thanksgiving Leftovers in the heart of Summer! All the bread is great but I'm not sure where it comes from. Also, Classic Caprese Sandwich, Curry Chicken, Cuban, The other Turkey sandwich with bacon, pickled scallions and some cheese - I think- All the sandwiches are really good and not so enormous that you can't eat it all. They do a great summer business and generally always do a super great job putting out hundreds of meals per day. We usually get it to go for the beach and they are just so so good. Important side note- Their website was not available and I don't think they take too much care of it- You can't order on line as of late- as I said, they get very busy and it is a multicultural staff so when you call it's loud and the person on the phone can't really hear you nor you them. Be prepared to deal with parking nightmares when you go pickup- also double check they give you what you order- they have made that mistake a few times with me. All in all- I/ we love Provisions. Do it before the summer ends! Located On Straightwharf downtown nantucket just when you get off the Hyline Ferry. read more

Friendly staff but mediocre food at a very Nantucket price point. Had the thanksgiving sandwich and it was incredibly disappointing for $17ish. read more

10/10 delicious lunch option for kids and adults. I got the Cobb salad twice on our trip and they are so accommodating with allergies even very specific ones. So kind and patient. And found outstanding!!!!!! Even the turkey sandwiches the kids gobbled up. read more

DISAPPOINTING!!!! I'm not sure why everyone gave such good reviews of this place. Mediocre sandwiches at best. Also, we tried breakfast and they were out of bagels (besides Cisco beer flavored-yuk) by 10 am and only have two egg choices. One made with herbs and heavy cream, and the other " egg white" that actually has feta. So beware there are no dairy free or kid friendly options. Be prepared to wait 30 minutes for order as well. NOT impressed! read more

Great food a real treat, I recommend them . Gluten free bread. They deliver food to ACK airport

Good food, though the place is a bit disorganized since there are two counters...one more for coffee and beverages, and the other for sandwiches. The workers kept confusing us as to which line we needed t be in, and it was busy enough for 3pm on a Sunday. There's not that many tables and they mostly just sit two people. There is one high table with bar stools for a group of six, or for people eating on their own. Beware, they only accept cash. read more

Great sandwiches to pick up en route to the beach. Call ahead and they'll have them waiting, especially nice when you're jockeying for a parking spot and someone can jump out to grab them as the other person does a loop. Sometimes I don't want to brave town traffic on the way to the beach, but I'm always happy I did at lunch time :) read more

Tasty sandwiches, Nantucket prices. Good stop if you've only got $20 left in your pocket! Sandwiches are good but everything else on the menu is a pass for me. Not impressed by any of the salads or breakfast offerings. read more

Was really excited to try the "Terrific Turkey" sandwich but it was just a dry and flavourless sandwich. Hardly any cranberry sauce or mayo. They prioritize their catering orders so be willing to wait, standing, for over 30 minutes for sandwiches and 15 minutes for coffees. They aren't open inside, only one register was open, and online ordering was closed. Really disappointed and I recommend stopping somewhere else for a bite. read more

absolutely delicious. staff was polite & service was quick. I do not eat meat, and I was pleasantly surprised to see the many options for meatless sandwiches. I had a falafel wrap-- it was so good and a filling meal. The people I was with had 'the other turkey' and 'the Italian' and also thoroughly enjoyed their meals. Perfect for a quick bite after getting off the ferry. Next time in Nantucket I will stop by! read more

Ultimate spot while on Nantucket. It's amazing how they keep the tradition of the old "Provisions". The place is so clean, there is outside benches as well. Perfect downtown spot to grab your sandwich and go explore. They also deliver! All of their sandwiches are so delicious and fair for the price! YOU MUST TRY THEIR FALAFEL! Sooo good! read more

My wife and I were here on our visit to Nantucket. She got a salad which they customized and I got the caprese sandwich. They do.offer gluten free, vegan, and vegetarian options. Wait times can be long as they are very popular and the food is well worth the wait. The caprese sandwich was fresh, the ciabata rolls were awesome, and the fresh mozzarella made a huge difference. We highly recommend this place. read more

Don't judge Provisions on their coffee. It'll satisfy your caffeine needs, but isn't something you'll crave. Now the sandwiches on the other hand, they are amazing. The turkey and the Italian are both worth suiting for. The breakfast baked goods are also excellent and I highly recommend the bacon and chive scone, it was memorable. read more

Yum! Great sandwiches. Curry Chicken was really good and delicious. Was super excited to try the Turkey Terrific but wasn't really into it. Was a little surprise people are so obsessed it. Wouldn't get it again but would go back for others! read more

I was on a bumpy ferry ride and needed a green tea fix. The ferry only had Lipton, HORRORS. Provisions serves Harney Tea (win) and had some lovely baked goods as well. I had a nice slice of banana bread. It was slightly stale but I was famished. It was loaded with walnuts. YUM! read more

You'll wait (and pay) cuz the sandwiches are great. They have a highly trafficked location too, of course, but I did not regret waiting almost 15 minutes to order, then 20+ for our sandwiches, as my Italian sandwich was fantastic! Just the right amount of sweet and spice with the peppers, complimenting quality meets and cheese on a tasty ciabatta. Will order again! read more

Hubby and I stopped by for a quick lunch. The made to order sandwiches were tasty and quickly prepared. Minimal seating inside but you can always take your meal outdoors! :) read more

Four stars because it's cash-only, and sometimes they skimp on the meat. Otherwise five stars all around for this island classic, which is located right on the wharf. Provisions has some of the best sandwiches on the island - you can't go wrong with the turkey terrific, the other turkey, or the tuna on ciabatta. This is my go-to spot to pick up sandwiches for a day at the beach. Pop into fresh across the street for some booze and smoked fish dip, and you're set! read more

I heard a lot of buzz around these sandwiches, so I did have high expectations that were 100% met. We all got different sandwiches so we could try them all because so many of them sounded delicious. My favorites were the thanksgiving sandwich (it's exactly what it sounds like) and the turkey. This place is another place that is cash only. The staff here were also over the top friendly! read more

NO doubt - the best sandwiches I've ever had. To be honest, sandwiches can get boring but not these. I was just watching the Foodnetwork.com/bestthingieverate (obsessed).... I was reminded of the turkey, cranberry, dressing (or stuffing as they say up here!) sandwich... it's really a MUST TRY. I don't think I have had this sandwich in 6 years but I do remember how it tasted. All the ingredients are so fresh - the bread, the turkey is cut thick, cranberries are a specialty up here so the sauce is delightful - superb. Now, I want this sandwich and I can't have it - logistical problem there. My sister and I lived there a few summers. We would bike to provisions mid morn and pick up sandwiches and ride out to the beach and just veg all day. heavenly.... i love nantucket... never get enough of it!! read more

THE BEST SANDWICHES! I stumbled into Provisions 6 summer's ago and ended up getting the turkey terrific sandwich, not only is this the best turkey I've ever had but the stuffing and cranberry sauce are perfect compliments to the freshly baked bread! the portions are large and perfectly wrapped so they are easy to take on the go. It's a quick place to grab a sandwich if lines aren't long but if there is a line it gets HOT in that little shop. A definite must try to anyone new or old on the island. read more

Sandwiches are good, but I had to wait almost a half hour for 2 sandwiches when there was only one other person in line. Would not recommend if you have anywhere to be. read more

By the time my husband and I disembarked in Nantucket from the Hyannis ferry last weekend, it was about 4:30 and my husband wsa starving for a small snack. After we dropped off our luggage at the hotel, we made our way back to the area where we docked. Based on some quick research, we decided to head to Provisions, a small cafe that serves up freshly made sandwiches, coffee, pastries and other small snacks. My husband was craving a small sandwich to tide him over until dinner (don't you love how guys can eat a whole sandwich as a pre-dinner snack?), and based on our quick internet consulting, Provisions was apparently the place to go! As most restaurants and cafes in Nantucket are, Provisions is basically located in an old-looking, weathered house, giving it that classic Nantucket charm! There were two counters at this small cafe- one for coffee and pastries and one to order made-to-order sandwiches and salads. We headed straight to the sandwich counter! From the chalkboard menu, my husband ordered a BLT on ciabatta- you basically place your order and pick it up when you are done. There are a decent number of tables in Provisions itself, one of which we grabbed for ourselves, but many order their food for takeout, perhaps to eat on a ferry ride back home! While I didn't order anything myself, as far as vegan options go, they did have a hummus and veggie sandwich, as well as a sweet potato, roasted broccoli salad with a ginger sesame vinaigrette that peaked my gluten-free vegan tastebuds! Provisions is a popular place, and now we see why. It was fast, easy and convenient, but the food is far from fast food. My husband's sandwich was freshly made, piping hot with quality ingredients- he proclaimed it the best sandwich he has had in a long time! This spot is a great option for vegan, vegetarian and non-veg folks to grab a fast, fresh made-to-order meal! read more

Best spot on the island hands down!!!!!! The turkey terrific brings you back to thanksgiving!!! Amazing breakfast sandwich; the original extra tomato jam!!! I definitely recommend checking this spot out!!!!!! Anything that you get will be made with extra love and packed with flavor!!!! Check it out!!! read more

Haven't been to provisions in years!!! And figured after a good lengthy walk with my 20 month old, why not... They have the standard kids sandwich menu, grilled cheese, PB&J, etc... Which was exactly what I was looking for. I ordered my son the grilled cheese and I got the egg sandwich as I wasn't in the mood for the standard turkey terrific... The grilled cheese was very grilled, almost very panini like which was great.. My son didn't eat it hot or right there, but when we got him he devoured it!!! I had my egg sandwich there and it was good.. The herb bread was tasty, the egg salad too was very tasty.. Though I thought they skimped on it a bit... Several tables inside but why sit inside when the harbor is a 2 minute walk and you can see the boats... read more

If you have never been to Nantucket and are reading this review ... You need to just come to the Island and head straight to Provisions ... These sandwiches are worth the price of admission ( oh bring cash ... No credit or off island checks accepted). Each sandwich is fresh made to order and beyond artistically crafted (not a $ubway reference, they only use real natural food not recreated food product). My favorite is the total turkey! Thanksgiving dinner in every bite!! I can't leave the island with out this culinary treat. Staff is attentive to food allergies and happy to bing your order to the outside seating area once the order is complete. Enjoy and save room for their great sweet offering as well. read more

I've been trying for months to get here and finally managed. Of course it's chaos when you walk in so I was wondering if my sandwich would live up to the hype. Got a Cuban American. Typical Cuban on Portuguese bread. Oh man, it was delicious. It melted like butter in my mouth and tasted like heaven. The bread was perfect with the meat and everything blended together for the perfect sandwich. Price: $10. A bit more than you'd spent off island, but I say that about every place on island. It's a little on the cramped side in there, but if I'm going on the delicious Sammie only, this place is worth the visit. read more

Fantastic bread makes for fantastic sandwiches, and that seems to be the focus of this place. They have all of your normal, run of the mill ham and cheese/turkey & swiss/ tuna on rye, but they also have stuff for the more adventurous tastes. Every day they have a list of specialty sandwiches and a list on the chalk board of the daily specials. As with any place where the bread is made fresh that day, get there early, because they run out of the best stuff early. They also had some fresh baked deserts when I was there, and a separate counter for coffee and dessert if that was all you wanted. Because you are on an island be prepared for the fact that you will pay a little more than you are used to, but the prices are in line with a place like Panera bread, so you probably won't be too surprised. read more

Oh where oh where shall I begin?!? A place that focuses on one type of food: Hearty and Delicious Sandwiches The name of said place: Provisions - perfectly fitting because these are the types of provisions you want to have with you whether eating in or on your next journey. I tried the caprese, tuna, and the italian. I definitely felt an attraction between the sicilian tuna and the italian. They were both so, so good and I just couldn't stop...therefore, finishing every last bite. Great place for lunch before the ferry, after the ferry, just walking around town. Call ahead and order if you'd like. Word of advice: They only take cash but there is an ATM located in the shop. I made the mistake the first time but didn't make it on our three return trips that week. Take care & savor it up! read more

Delicious good food! We grabbed sandwiches (great vegetarian options as well). I cant remember the name of the one I ordered but it has a walnut pepper paste in it and it was delicious! My boyfriend got the sicilian tuna which was incredible as well. We also bought cookies which were very yummy. We bought our sandwiches at 11 and ate them around 2 pm after driving around great point and they were still delicious! read more

I'm not so happy about all the "HOME OF THE ORIGINAL TURKEY TERRIFIC" posters smattered everywhere outside of Provisions, in the local newspaper, etc. it's kinda cheesy, guys. I mean, you have this cult product, it's good, you're doing well with it, enjoy it - don't mass market it further in our face - it's not necessary and frankly, it's below you. The sandwiches were still good (although the mozarella and heirloom tomato, w/basil was really lame looking and the half baked bread needed to go through it's 2nd cycle) -artichoke hearts on a veggie sandwich make me happy and I'd still recommend this place, it just lost that...well, ok, I know this place is far from a secret but... The posting about pre made TT's is pretty bad. I hope that was a one time thing. PS-a little S&P or other seasoning on some of the sandwiches wouldn't hurt. read more

Provisions sandwiches was actually the best sandwich I have ever had. The only bad thing about this place is that they don't take credit or debit cards. They only take cash. It was fine though no biggie. For drinks I just got a purity orange mango juice. That seemed to hit the spot. In conclusion, Provisions Sandwiches had great food and was definitely worth the price. If I happen to be walking around Downtown Nantucket again, it would definitely be a big win-win for me. read more

We went to Provisions because it was highly recommended to us by a vegetarian salesgirl in town...she told me I HAD to try the Caprese and I had heard good things about Provisions already so we went for lunch today. I am giving Provisions four stars only because there were very few vegetarian options that I could see (The Caprese really being the only one) and there were only chips and cookies available as sides but my sandwich was deeeelicious!!! I loved every bite...so so good! The ingredients of moz, pesto, tomato and vinagrette + some other things were all fresh and complimented each other. My Mom had "The Other Turkey" sandwich and said hers was just "alright"...I thought it looked good though. Cute interior and friendly customer service. They bring your food to your table. Sweet sandwiches! read more
