Hi. North Jerseyan here. Longtime Yelper. I hereby offer my wholehearted endorsement of Rod & Rail…read moreto anyone visiting or living in / near Cape Cod. Ambiance: Local bar. Not divey, but you walk in and you're basically at the bar. There's bar seating, a few tables on the side, a few in the back. People were eating and drinking wherever. Service: Prompt, friendly. The bartender was the owner, chatting with a local about working where he lives and drinking while he works. But very friendly and open to visitors here. And no overwhelming Boston accent. If you're not local, you'll do fine. Food: OK, I was here on an impulse search for dessert. They happened to have fresh homemade donut holes to go, so I got some cinnamon dusted. And by dusted, I mean WHOA NELLY that's a lot! And the donut holes were also huge. And they came with warm caramel dipping sauce. I couldn't put it down. While I was waiting (again, didn't take long, they were just shaking the topping on in the back), I looked over and saw bar pies that honestly? To this North Jerseyan? Looked like good tasty pizza. In Massachusetts. You have been warned. If you stay on Route 25 to bypass Bourne on your way to or from the bridges, you're not just adding mileage to your car to save a little time. You're missing out on the best place in a country mile.

You immediately feel like you're part of the neighborhood. And of course... you've got to enjoy a sandwich in Sandwich! Our daughter recommended this spot after loving it during a visit with a friend, so we made a point to stop by on our way to Provincetown. We're so glad we did. The food was delicious, the service was quick, and every staff member we met was genuinely warm. It absolutely lived up to the hype. If you're anywhere near Cape Cod, this place is worth the detour. Save it on your map -- your taste buds will thank you!

A fishing town that sells affordable fresh seafood! Can here to they the lobster roll, best priced…read moreI've seen anywhere. I walked in and the place was packed. Local bar serving up no frills seafood at a very good price point. Small bar but all the patrons seem to be local, a good sign. I placed my order and waited. Food came out fairly quick. Bread was nice and toasted, good amount of lobster for the price, it's a killer deal.

$9 for fish and chips? What more could you ask for?…read more We stop by here for a small lunch on our way to the Outer Cape. Btw, take the scenic route (Route 6A) instead of Route 6. It's the journey and the destination. The fish and chips are decently portioned though I did notice that my recent order was smaller than one a few years back. The fish was still flaky and flavorful, though. It's still a bargain at $9. The lobster roll is a good price ($18 as of this writing) but I find it to be a little too heavy on the mayo. Again, it's still a good price. Service is excellent and the servers are friendly and mostly attentive. The place is a tight bar but it's pretty clean and not dingy. Parking is a bit limited and there are some mean potholes in the parking lot.

I recall enjoying the seafood dishes I've tried. The vibe is really what brings me back though. See you soon, Captain!

We made reservations and arrived to a reasonably full restaurant--not overwhelming. From the…read moreparking lot, you could already smell the steak tips cooking, which was promising. We were seated right away, though the high-top tables near the door were freezing; guests with winter jackets and hats looked like they were braving the arctic. Our waitress didn't come by for about 15 minutes, which we didn't mind initially. When she arrived, she seemed a bit awkward. We ordered drinks and asked about the $9 chowder, specifically if it came in a bowl or cup. She confidently said it was a "bigggg giant bowl" and suggested we split it. When the chowder finally arrived, we were disappointed. I may have counted three small potatoes in my bowl, and the crackers seemed to take up most of the space. If you're craving chowder in Plymouth, there are many better and more reasonably priced options. We are new homeowners and cook lovely meals daily, so the few times we go out these days, we really look forward to enjoying the atmosphere and getting exactly what we are paying for. We're not overly fancy--pubs and taverns are our jam. Sitting at the bar, we finally enjoyed our meals. The bar staff were great, and the actual meal itself was VERY good. However, it seemed like if you're not a "regular," the attention and welcoming feel can be inconsistent unless you're seated at the bar. In short: good food, okay bar service, but inconsistent front-of-house experience.

NEW FAVORITE! We are in town for business every Sept/Oct for about 6 weeks. We have tried to visit…read morethis place many times before, but they always closed for the season. Now they are staying open later in the season and we are SOOOOO happy! This place ROCKS! Cute little place, love the outside deck, but let's get real, it's all about the food! We've been twice now. I got the small (yeah, right) lobster roll and clam chowder combo both times I came. FIrst, I don't know who can eat the Monsta one, not I. The "small" is bigger than anyone else's I've seen. If you look closely at the last pic I posted of the lobster roll, there is an ENTIRE lobster in there. There is a full, uncut lobster tail, and two full, uncut claws, and a ton of other meat around it. Full lobster kids. The grill on the bun is perfect. While the bun is hot, the lobster itself is served cold and undressed, but with warm drawn butter on the side. MMmmmmmmmm. It's my fav lobster roll hands down. Both times I've had a few of the raw littlenecks. So good. Also last time, the BF went with me and he had the Cuban sandwich, as he is not a fan of clams or lobster (I know, and I stay with him anyway). This Cubano was INSANE good! I had a couple bites. We both love a Cubano, and this is probably the best one either of us have ever had. Great bread, and it's HUGE! All in all, great place, great food, great vibe, friendly peeps. Can't wait til next September! Woohoo!
