    they only make one kind of cupcake but it's literally so good. Practically inhaled the first one and walked back to buy a mini. So good and so pretty looking.

    The rumors are true, Scott Cakes are genuinely good! Great service, and you don't need to ponder what to get - they only have one kind of cupcakes (aka Scott cakes) which come in 2 sizes, regular size and mini. The cake part is moist and the frosting part is soft and semi fluffy. These are just sweet enough and for me eating 1 was just enough.

    Scott cakes was a lovely dessert in ptown. They serve pink cupcakes and not a lot else. The thing is, that id always rather have a place do one thing really well, rather than sell a bunch of mediocre products. Definitely check them out for a sweet treat.

    Really wished they had vegan cupcakes. When I searched this popped up. Unfortunately no more vegan cupcakes. My family loved the cupcakes. Although very pricey. Its good. Bring cash.

    The waiter at Lobster Pot told us about this bakery where 1 guys only sells 1 item: a vanilla cupcake with pink frosting. We decided to go find it because this waiter said it was the best cupcake he's ever had. I love this place, conceptually: a small bake shop that literally specializes in 1 exceptional thing. However, execution-wise, I don't think it lives up to that concept. Don't get me wrong, the cupcake is quite delicious... but is it delicious enough to get me to come back time and time again? Probably not. Also just way too expensive for the size

    We bought two minis. OMG, so good.

    Delicious cupcakes - satisfying my sugar fix two days in a row while on vacation in Provincetown. My kids just couldn't get enough. The bakery only serves one color frosting - PINK. Nothing to think about, just run over and get some. Comes in a mini or standard size cupcake. There's bistro tables outside if you wish to eat them straightaway. Or the super friendly staff can box them up for you. Depending on how many you buy, they usually can box it without an issue. We grabbed paper plates and just gobbled it up in an instant at one of the bistro tables. Can't miss the bright pink storefront but know it's one level down from street level. For those who can't do stairs, there is a sloped ramp/walkway that goes down to the shop, just hang a sharp right.

    I love dessert, so I was curious to try ScottCakes. We tried to visit one day this last summer, but we came at the wrong time and they were closed. Made it back another day on our Ptown vacation and finally got a few. The cakes are a bit on the pricey side, but this is Cape Cod in the summer and most items will be costly. The cupcakes themselves were fairly average, I'd give them a 7.5 out of 10. There was nothing that really wowed me, especially for the cost. The cake portion didn't wow me and the frosting was just OK. I expected them to knock my socks off. Were they bad? No. It would be nice to see more cupcake flavors available too.

    Amazing cupcake! Worth the stop and no decision necessary outside of how many to order!

    If you go to ScottCakes, you will have the best cupcake of your life. He only makes one kind, and the reason for this is that he knows best. He has truly perfected his craft down in Provincetown, and it shows. These cupcakes are the perfect after-lunch snack to munch on as you walk up and down Provincetown's Main Street. 1000% worth the price (large cupcakes are $4). Usually, Scott himself is there, working the register and warmly greeting people who walk in. Lots of related merch and decor inside to check out, but overall a pretty small shop. Highly recommend!

    Cupcakes!!

    I'm a big fan of this simple philosophy: do one thing and do it really well. And, if you can survive as a business making pretty, pink, vanilla concoctions....fabulous! I was in Provincetown a few weeks ago and was happy to see that ScottCakes was open. Sometimes it's closed when I've visited off-season-ish. The smell is divine and the person behind the counter was friendly. I snagged a mini cupcake to devour ASAP and picked up a half dozen larger ones to bring back to the hotel for sharing. These are super sweet; so prepare for a sugar coma if you eat a whole large cupcake. Vanilla cake is moist and the products are always really fresh. The frosting is true buttercream...simple and yummy. This is not a variety-laden "crumbs" type bakery. Vanilla frosting on vanilla cake. You get what you see and smell. Sweet.

    For the first time for two of us we took out younger members of or family (who had dined here…read morebefore) to one of their favorite restaurants in the town. We can back up their opinion as a place well worth patronizing. There is a bustling and lively atmosphere in an informal and very pleasant space. The room was packed with different types of people enjoying their meals. Three of us had cocktails- the fourth does not drink. The order included a cucumber lemonade, two Honey Bear Toddys, (just right for the cold weather), and a nonalcoholic beer. We also had glasses of house red (a Malbec) and a Sauvion Blanc. We shared two appetizers: mussels and cheesy garlic bread, both of which were excellent. The main courses were a Cod Florentine (nicely cooked but a little bland for me but enjoyed by our daughter), a good Sausage Orecchiette for-me which I could only eat half of it, an excellent grilled salmon and an equally good shepherd's pie. I also ordered a side of fries which was overkill. And no one had any room for dessert. Our server was attentive and efficient. The check came to $232 not including the service charge. It is over the four stars that I gave and just under a five star rating. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone who lives or visits the area.

I was also able to find street parking a couple streets down. The inside is cute and quaint. I wasn't starving and I ordered the Cod Florentine. I loved it!

It might even be our new favorite. My family ordered the deviled eggs, which I got to try and I ordered a cheeseburger with french fries. I had never heard of a restaurant using shredded cheese on a burger so that was a unique experience. It was still good though. I asked for my burger cooked rare and they did just that. The meat was seasoned pretty well and the french fries hit the spot. I ordered two diet cokes that went down FAST and really washed everything down. I was happy with the service and I love that it's an LGBTQ+ owned business. The history of the restaurant is really sweet and I've heard that the owners of the restaurant will even come out to say hi to you if you ask to meet them. Overall it was a great dining experience and I would love to try more items on the menu in the future.

The chopped italian salad was also really good. We highly recommend the salads! Next we had sandwiches for our meal. The cod bahn mi was very light and refreshing. The burger was massive and also quite tasty. I had the chicken sandwich and it was very good but a little too spicy for me. All the sandwiches came w chips except the burger was served with good fries. For dessert we shared the praline sundae and peach and blackberry cobbler. Both were incredible. Service was attentive and warm! Eli was our server and deserves all 5 stars as do the bussers who kept our waters filled and table clean

We absolutely loved their breakfast sandwiches: I got the bacon, egg, and cheese on the Iggy's 7 grain bread and my fiancé got the sausage, egg, and cheese on a roll.

I myself love Rose wine, and I was wonderfully surprised that the Salty Market had 12 different ones to pick from! Definitely check this place out whether it's for your breakfast, lunch, or just to pick up some goodies from their store. NOTES/TIPS: ** If you don't want to wait a long time, put your order in online. Otherwise, you may be waiting up to 20 minutes if it's busy. **Deli hours: 8-11 am (Breakfast) and 11-2:30pm (lunch) **Market itself is open 7 days a week, 8am-7pm **They do have cute outdoor seating on the right side of the Market. **They sell the Truro wines and Chequessett chocolate here. **On the days that they're short staffed, they will only have cold sandwiches to go.
