Ended up coming here for a last minute dinner on a Saturday night. The staff were extremely accommodating even though we didn't have a reservation and were able to fit us in fairly quickly. The staff were all very friendly and attentive. We ended up chatting to the owner who checked on us throughout the evening, ensuring our food was good and even gave us recommendations for things to do in the area. The food came out promptly and was really good. Great family establishment, would highly recommend for a casual dinner in Chatham! read more

My fiancé and I came here for dinner, the service was good and the ambiance was as you would expect, very sports bar vibes, they do have a nice patio though. We both ordered the fish tacos and they were very good, there wasn't a large amount of fish in each taco, and the portions could have been larger, however the flavor was very good and I thought it tasted delicious. Good stop for fast and casual. read more

We stopped here before the baseball game for some apps and it hit the spot. I got the nachos with pulled pork because I was starving. It could have easily fed a family of 4+ I hardly made a dent. That being said it was very good! I wish there were more toppings like onions and tomato's but I really enjoyed it! I also got the Brussels and they were good too. They seemed to be deep fried and very crispy. It was served with a spicy mayo. I love Brussels and these were good! It was a nice casual spot to hang out for a bite. read more

Avoid the fish and chips. Rather than a reasonably sized piece of battered fish, the "fish" consisted of five small nuggets, about an inch or two in size, apparently right out of a bulk food service bag (see photo). The serving size of fish was more of a garnish than an entree. They were not battered; even calling them breaded would be generous. It was more of a powdered coating. It's unforgivable to serve these Fish McNuggets as "fish and chips" -- especially in a seafood-centric locale like Cape Cod, which is literally named after this dish. Added one star back because at least they comped my drink, and my companion seemed satisfied with his pulled pork sandwich. read more

Staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. Looking for a quick stop to grab something light. Delicious clam chowder and potato skins. Drinks were amazing. read more

Stopped here on a rainy night during Labor Day weekend. We figured let's go somewhere casual after coming back from Martha's Vineyard. They had a small parking lot with indoor and outdoor seating. We sat inside and got some cold beers to start. For food, we got the nun burger and fish & chips. They were pretty flavorful. Definitely a decent spot to stop at to fulfill your appetite while on the cape. read more

Us New Yorkers forgot that we were not in Kansas anymore and everything in the cape seems to close before the sun is down. We bopped around for a few places (some of which closed earlier than expected because they had a slow night) and were recommended by another business owner to try it here. We really wanted to like it, but we did not have a great experience here. We were seated pretty quickly, but the only option was outside. It was a bit chilly and they had no heat lamps, but it was 7:45 and they closed at 9 so we just went for it. Ambiance was casual and a little beach town dive-y We ordered pretty quickly after asking a few questions about the menu. People kept coming in and tables kept filling up. It was super hard to flag anyone down in the corner where we sat, and we were not checked on much. We ended up having to check in a total of 5 times about where our food was, the final time a FULL hour since we had ordered, more since we had arrived. They were closing up by the time we finally got it, which was extremely frustrating. There was very little acknowledgement other than just "it's coming out." At the point of an hour, a little extra customer service can go a long way. The fish tacos came with chips which it did not list on the menu, so that was a nice surprise. However, the tacos tasted like absolutely nothing. So I waited for an hour for bland food. The fish was also not hot, which made no sense, because it could not have been the salad that took an hour to come out? The chips were a little stale as well, but I ended up eating more of that than the tacos. My friend got a cobb salad with chicken which she liked - it was a bigger portion than she was expected, but still nothing exceptional. When we handed our cards to split the bill, they did remember who ordered what and actually split it by that instead of down the middle, which is rare and was appreciated. Would have been nice for them to send us a dessert or something (or maybe take the one drink off the bill?) as an apology for how ridiculously long we had to wait, but there was nothing of the sort. Unfortunately, with the service the way it was and how mediocre the food was, I don't think I'll be back. read more

Great company/atmosphere, good food and a favorite stop every year we come back for summer league, but the Service takes the cake!!

Family friendly pub/bar with parking and a big ramp inside, which is great for accessibility. The inside is tiny but cute. The outside is larger and has shade and a hedge that blocks out traffic noise and sounds. I had the local fried oysters and fries. I wasn't expecting that much but honestly they were some of the best fried oysters I have ever had. A good size and juicy and a nice balance of breading and oyster. Plenty of fries too. We had a big group and the kitchen was a bit slow; but the server was friendly and kind and did a great job of keeping us up to speed on when we would get our food. Would definitely stop by again. read more

Food was really good. Most at the table did a build your own burger. I opted for the English muffin bun which I had never had before and it was a nice change of pace! Great cocktails as well. Server was friendly and on top of things. Would definitely recommend! read more

You would never expect to get such good food at this little bar, but we were authentically impressed. The veggie burger is actually home made - great spices and flavor. The nachos had lots of fresh vegetables and beans and just the right amount of cheese. They're open later than anyone else around, the service was delightful and fast, and they had great beers on tap. read more

We have been going here for years. It was our go to restaurant/bar. Last summer, they had the best fried oysters! We had friends visiting recently and brought them here for an early dinner. They were out of salmon and fried oysters; two things the group was looking forward to. When the food arrived it looked amazing. My son ordered the fried clam strips. There were 6 total and 2 had no clam inside! My chicken sandwich looked like a chicken patty from McDonalds. It was very thin and did not have much flavor. My husband had the fish tacos. He was disappointed to see a very small piece of fish in each taco. I know restaurants are making cuts to save money, unfortunately, it is affecting the quality of the food. On a positive note, the swordfish salad and rice bowl got rave reviews! read more

The food is great. But the specials are inconsistent and wait staff ok. 3/5. Hah read more

Arriving in Chatham on a Saturday afternoon, we thought we would get a chill dinner after a day of travel. Looking on Google Maps we stumbled upon the Red Nun Bar and Grill and decided it looked like the perfect place. It's a tavern style, low key, don't have to worry about what you're wearing kind of place. When my mom and I arrived, they sat us in the bar area at a high top. There was only one other table seated at the time. Within the next 5 minutes or so a table of 6 and a table of 5 were seated near us. We continued to have to wait for around 15 minutes for anyone to even ask us what we wanted to drink, while the 2 tables seated after us got their drink and food orders in. I kept trying to make eye contact with one of the girls to no avail. I finally had to get up to ask if we were going to be given a server, as we had been waiting. They gave somewhat of an apology saying a server had too many tables and was overwhelmed and would be there soon. At least the girl I asked managed to get us drinks. Still didn't explain how we were passed over for the other tables but at this point we just wanted to order. Mom got Quahog and I got nachos. They were what you would expect from a low key tavern. We chalked up the mediocre service to the "season" just beginning and the young girls probably just having started their summer jobs but overall it was still underwhelming and we didn't think twice about going back the remainder of our trip. read more

Thanks to other Yelpers for this recommendation. We were visiting Chatham, and this place was fairly close to our hotel. I ordered on the app and it was ready when I arrived. We both got burgers, and they were quite substantial. Tasty, too. I thought the Sweet Potato Fries were excellent. I had enough for a second meal. There seemed to be a decent amount of people there on a Thursday, which tells me it must be popular with locals. read more

Wowsa. Yeh. GOOD food. GOOD atmosphere so long as you like cozy bars with limited seating. Let it be known we visited mid-March around 2:30 on a Sunday afternoon. The place had such a soft spoken hostess (who doubled as our server, and wouldn't do well in a baton relay). We sat with an old local goat, , while the other locals hung at the bar. All the tables are high tops (my fave). Our soft spoken nameless host gestured that the clam chowder was good. Actually, it was a 9.8! For entree's, I asked about the Nun-Chos. Our soft spoken host mentioned it was good for 2-3 people so I went with it. I didn't share because the local goat wanted the Fire & Ice burger. Four (4) paper towels soaked with forehead sweat later, he called it for our soft spoken host server - a solid 12.0!! The Nun-Chos, add chili, proved to be too much for 1 person, but they were LEGIT nachos. LE. GIT. So much so, that as we were getting up, the people at the table behind us were contemplating Nachos. I shared my thoughts. I'm NOT a local, but I'll be adding this to my list of Oh Yeh, We are Eating Here on our Stays In Chatham. Thanks for being the local goat, Rich. We wish you were there wish us, Eileen. read more

I would take a picture of my burger but it was so good I ate it before I remembered. I got the Fire and Ice burger with avocado, ranch, and ghost pepper cheese. It has a nice kick but could be a little spicier. My man got the Buddha burger which is a bean burger with bleu cheese. The prices are decent and the atmosphere is really friendly. I'll remember this place the next time we're in Chatham. read more

Great spot for a quick burger or a beer! Call ahead during the summer, it's a small spot and the wait can be long at times. Off season stop and catch up with locals and enjoy a meal! read more

We decided to try the Red Nun before an Angler's game despite the less than stellar reviews. So glad we did. Great food, our server was fantastic. Since the place was packed I'd say others were not dissuaded by the malcontents. read more

Fried cod sandwich was absolutely delicious! Outdoor dining made this the perfect luncheon spot in Chatham. Great service and easy location. read more

We came here after a wonderful day enjoying Chatham. They were able to sit our big party quickly which was very appreciated, but from there it was not as great as we wanted it to be. The service was not particularly wonderful. We ordered our drinks and did not see the waitress again for 15 minutes. Once she returned we ordered and didn't receive refills on drinks for another 15 minutes. The food was not amazing, and was pretty bland. The beer choice was great. This is an interesting spot in Chatham but was not what we were expecting. read more

There was a good amount of patio space. The servers were sweet and consistently checking on us. We mostly came for drinks. I was satisfied with the draft and cocktail lists. Tried the clam chowder, which was good. Bathroom was clean. read more

Great local spot - expect to wait as this place is tiny. We dine here every summer while visiting Chatham, then take in an Anglers baseball game. Some parking available. read more

In reading other reviews for this establishment, I see that it is, during the summer, more of a bar hangout. And, with only about 8 tables inside, I can see that people who expected a comfortable meal in that atmosphere would be disappointed, as would I. With that said, my review is based on a visit on a rainy, September Monday evening, fairly early, and our visit was a great way to top off our day. A few people at the bar, a few others dining. Attentive service. Visited with two vacation companions, and we started with the "house cut nachos": Nun Nachos, adding chicken. The portion was huge, the toppings generous, great flavor - we polished off almost all of them down to just scraps! What we didn't finish before our meal, we picked on after instead of dessert! One would think with the size of our meals to come, we'd have no room to finish them off. We all opted for burgers. Myself, the Fire & Ice Burger. If the burger (menu stating a combo of short rib, brisket & sirloin) wasn't out of this world, I would subtract a star for my disappointment from the lack of "fire". The Fire was to come from the Ghost Pepper Cheese, the Ice from Ranch Dressing and Avocado. It was the Ghost Pepper Cheese that caught my eye, knowing the Ghost Peppers are extremely hot. However, that wasn't the case - maybe need to find a stronger brand of cheese. Nonetheless, the hot sauce on the table kicked it up and since I was in love with the sandwich as a whole, I cannot really complain. The burgers are served on sandwich sized English muffins, toasted crisp, as they should be. Delicious! All the burgers come with lettuce and tomato and I requested raw onion. In addition, I upgraded the fries to Truffle Fries with shredded parm. Mmmmmm! Both of the other girls had the Nun Burger, with sautéed onions, mushrooms, bacon & cheddar. They also thoroughly enjoyed their burgers. One upgraded to onion rings which we all shared. Perfect. We were happy to have come across this place. Some places, had already closed for the season after Labor Day, some not open on Mondays. We got a very lucky break! read more

The food was good... however... there was one server who was awful. She actually ruined a nice night out with friends. We got drinks at the bar quick - tipped appropriately for beer and moved onto our table. There was a waitress - who wasn't even our waitress - who came up to us and proceeded to mock us for not tipping more for beers? It was weird! She kept coming over to us continuously making comments. Finally, I stood up to her because the comments were out of hand. She then shouted "GET THE F*** OUT". It was so inappropriate, the rest of the staff told us to just ignore her and stay, but it was so uncomfortable. I know everyone has a "bad day" but you don't know if we had a bad day either and we're out celebrating to get our mind off things. That's no excuse to treat people in the manor she did. I hope moving forward she doesn't treat people the way she treated us. read more

Red Nun Bar & Grill seemed like a favorite casual local spot when we visited Chatham recently.. We prefer a more casual dining experience when we travel.. There were four of us, we arrived about 6:15, and were seated immediately with no reservation.. We had some good Adult beverages and enjoyed the fried scallops and the fried oyster dinners a-lot.. Great staff, great food, very casual and relaxing.. A Good time was had by all! read more

Tried For the first time tonight. Although there seemed to be a mix up with our food order, as tables that arrived after us were served their food way before our food came, I would still highly recommend. We enjoyed draft beers, the Jerk Wrap and Fire and Ice Burger. We got the truffle fries which were tasty. Food came hot and was really good. Flavors were perfect. read more

The food was very good. The staff is very nice. It is a cute little place. Would recommend!!!

Love the Fire and Ice burger. Amazing. If you are in town you need to try it. I'm dropping this review because I was in town from afar and look forward to just that when I come here. I tried to do an online order and the online ordering was not working. So I called. They said the shut down ordering "to-go" because it's so busy .. I asked if I came in would I be able to order? (Thinking this would be not much different than me taking a table of which there were a few available) and they said yes. When I got there they said no I cannot do that. This would have been one star. But that fire and ice burger is phenomenal. read more

Great bar with delicious food. Has some excellent local session ipa with a cape cod blt and a nun's burger. Food was amazing, but even nicer to sit at a bar after such a long time and admire all the memorabilia on the walls and ceiling. We will definitely be back soon read more

Nope. Not happening again. We were in the Cape for only a few days on vacation and stumbled upon Red Nun. Red Nun Burger - Bad Super soggy flavorless onions, a greasy bland cheddar cheese, floppy mushrooms from a can, translucent white lettuce shavings, and a bland over-medium patty piled a-high on an...English muffin (?). So bad. I douced the fries with malt vinegar and decided to just eat those instead. Grilled Codfish Sandwich with Pesto and Cajun Seasoning - Bad What we expected to be a light and spicy tasting filet actually arrived dripping in oil on a non-memorable bun with pesto mayo and some "Cajun" seasoning that completely missed the mark. It pains me to heap all of this negativity, but I really think there are a ton of opportunities for improvement. Our server, Hannah, was very sweet and accommodating. Her helpfulness and great attitude was the highest point in our meal. read more
