    Jack & Charlie's in Nantucket is an easy 5 stars. Perfect spot right on Straight Wharf for coffee, breakfast, smoothies, and ice cream all day. The breakfast sandwiches and acai bowls are super clutch in the morning, and their ice cream flavors are legit - tons of options and all delicious. Staff is friendly, service is quick, and it's the kind of place you end up going back to every day you're on island.

    A perfect little treat before heading off on the ferry! Loved sitting on their small patio outside while we enjoyed our scoops: moose tracks and my mom had raspberry sorbet - both were excellent! We went at an off-time of day so we didn't have to wait in line, too! The acai bowls looked amazing as well, but didn't have an opportunity to try it.

    Ordered a birthday cake and chocolate lovers two scoop in a chocolate waffle cone and it was good but average. The individual who served us the ice cream wasn't super friendly and seemed like they wanted to get people in and out. Overall, it was just pretty average but they do offer a lot of flavor varieties.

    Definitely a great spot to stop while on Island. Very cute little shop downtown and our favorite late night stop. Me and my wife both love their toasted coconut in the waffle bowl. Wayyy better than sitting in the juice bar line for an hour

    I am obsessed with Jack and Charlie's!! They have the best chocolate chip cookie on island!!!! And their Peanut Butter Pie is TO DIE FOR! Not being dramatic it's my favorite ice cream flavor I've ever had in my life (and I worked at an ice cream shop for 5 years so that's saying a lot)! My favorite breakfast sandwich is a BEC on a croissant. The owner Debbie is the sweetest woman and always has a smile on her face! #betterthanjuicebar

    Ice cream and coffee! What could be better! Cute location and tables outside to eat at.

    The front of Jack and Charlie's!

    First of all the food was AMAZING! Me and my family went there at least twice a day on our trip. I had their açaí bowl, boba tea, ice cream, croissant doughnuts, and an iced coffee. If I had to recommend one thing, I literally couldn't, the ambience, service, and food were outstanding! This hidden jem should not be rated 3.6 stars. If you are in Nantucket, I would recommend Jack and Charlie's as your first stop!

    Day trip to Nantucket today. Stopped in for cone. Had some peanut butter creation that was amazing.

    Small iced matcha with oat milk and sugar free vanilla

    Matcha was good but it was $10. I'm not sure if that was because I added the syrup and oat milk, but it was definitely on the pricey side. Good though!

    Had to get ice cream every day on my east coast trip. Nantucket's ice cream was here. VERY good and had patio tables to enjoy our ice cream and people watch

Home fries need to be spectacular to impress me, and these were truly out of this world. I could eat them every day! I have no complaints about anything on my plate. The scrambled eggs were perfectly prepared (I asked for them well-done) and of course the home fries were the star of the show. My latte was also very good, and these mug it was served in was so cute. I tried a bite of my friend's chocolate chip waffle, which was recommended to us by a coworker who said it was the best on the island. I can't say I have tried any other waffles on the island, but this one was quite delicious and it would be difficult to top it. Even though it was busy late on Saturday morning, my party of two was seated right away. Sure, you're sitting close to the people next to you, but I do not mind. The place is well-decorated and has a pleasantly clean vibe about it. I am looking forward to trying dinner here as well in the near future!

Closed in October of '24…read more I had breakfast there with my friends from the Nantucket Amateur Radio Association in June '24; a weekly occurrence on Tuesdays with this radio gang. A great breakfast. Old school. Diner-style grill restaurant. Everything was made to order and they offered very good and complicated breakfasts: avocados, lobster, and poached this that and the other. We heard about the doughnuts. Never had one. In September of '24 the Inky reported that the Downyflake was to permanently close. So we made a day trip just to try the doughnuts. In fact, we did this in October the weekend before they closed. Off of Straight Wharf, a taxi ride out, bought a few doughnuts, uber'ed back to town, got some coffee from The Hub, and walked and sat on our bench on Easy Street over looking the Wharf Rat Club. Heaven. Everyone should experience Nantucket. I will say, we were lucky and happy to experience the doughnuts. The doughnuts, yes, are still sticking to my ribs a year later. More oil than the Exxon Valdez. We will miss you old friend. Even though the rumor is a new one will open... someday.

My sister who has lived on ACK for 30+ years loves their doughnuts - and yes they are VERY good. My favs are the chocolate frosted and the apple cider (in season). These really are small doughnuts - so you can eat 2 without too much guilt. I was craving some linguica sausage - I grew up eating it on pizzas and breakfast sandwiches in the summer in New Beford, MA. I saw that the menu had breakfast sandwiches (with your choice of meat) - Unfortunately they waitress informed me that linguica was not an option on this sandwich - which it really should be!. I opted for a side of the linguini and a english muffin to craft my own sandwich (AND - Bonus to save room for a doughnut or 2) It was tasty - but not the linguica of my childhood that oozed red grease, this one was pretty lean and more dense than I remember. I still ate every bite. The highlight was the doughnut dessert, these have not changed in 20 years.

    I seldom write bad or negative reviews, so this one flummoxed me a bit…read more The appetizer was this wonderful cold mussel dish, with spices and a light oil. Just a nice, artisan dish akin to something you'd get in New Bedford or Fall River. Fantastic. 5-Stars. Now their lobster roll. Imagine a hot dog, OK, and now imagine one of those little Jimmy Dean breakfast sausage links for size comparison. The volume of finely shredded lobster meat, that was also warm in that hot dog roll was smaller than the Jimmy Dean link. 0-Stars. My recommendations for a "good" lobster roll is to go anywhere else on island. I'd recommend Sayle's Seafood, The Nantucket Lobster Trap or Stubby's. In fact, I'd just stay clear of the Club Car altogether, it is one of those places for the self-focused New York / Miami new [vulgar] money jet-set that treat the island like their play-thing... you know, you see their empty beer cans in the morning around town. That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.

The service is always on point (Bridget always takes care of us--she's genuinely so nice), and the food never misses: the lobster Cobb salad is fresh, loaded, and perfectly balanced, and the croque madame is pure comfort (savory, cheesy, and even better with the egg). And don't sleep on dinner, Club Car turns it up even more, and their steak frites is the best!
