    ScottCakes in PTown - Down the steps for THE BEST CUPCAKE EVER!!!
    Jim K.

    They have one item & 1 item only, in 2 sizes - a yellow cake cupcake with pink buttercream icing. Yet this place is a must go-to. The BEST Cupcakes I've ever had and completely consistent every time I've ever gone there. They're open until Midnight for your late night snacking needs & they're DELICIOUS!!! Can't say enough about how good these little pink iced treats are but you NEED TO GO & EAT THESE!!!

    These are the BEST cupcakes we have ever had! Don't walk, RUN to this place! You will be glad you did. There is one type of cupcake available but it comes in a mini or regular size. Let it be known that if there is one choice, it must be damn tasty. It was! Since we had just finished lunch so we got the minis; but I wish we would have taken some to go. The service was great! I didn't ask but hope they can ship these to Austin for me! PS: they had a gluten free option too!

    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!

    If you're in Provincetown, don't make the mistake of leaving without stopping at Relish…read more Yes, the sandwiches are excellent and the bakery is full of tempting treats, but the real surprise is the cupcakes. They are, quite simply, the best I've ever had. What makes them so special? They're not trying to reinvent the cupcake. They are honoring what the cupcake is -- they're simple, rich, and taste like the very best version of what a cupcake should be. Usually it's chocolate or vanilla cake paired with vanilla buttercream or a wonderfully fudgy chocolate buttercream. No exotic ingredients. No gimmicks. Just the magic that happens when classic flavors are made exceptionally well. No surprises. Just delicious. I've had cupcakes from plenty of other places that have built their reputations around them. Relish surpasses them all. That's not hometown enthusiasm talking nor is it a tourists "happy place" pink cloud fever dream. It's just the truth. One tip for fellow cupcake lovers: if you arrive hoping for a particular flavor combination and they're sold out, don't be disappointed. Instead, order ahead. Whether it's four, six, or a dozen of your favorite, just ask. They'll do their best to make your cupcake dreams come true, and you'll avoid the heartbreak of seeing the last chocolate-frosted one disappear before your eyes. If cupcakes had a Hall of Fame, Relish would be in it. Go for lunch, but save room for dessert. You'll be talking about those cupcakes long after you've left Provincetown.

    Stopped in here to get some sides for my lunch. We got some pasta salad, a nice tomato salad and…read moresome Asian slaw. Everything was really tasty and fresh. It wasn't cheap but everything was well made with quality ingredients. The tomatoes were my favorite...they were in something like an oil and balsamic dressing. So good!

    I come to the cape every year with my family and we heard the absolute best things about Butch's…read more We usually go to Strangers and Saints on our first night out but we heard that this restaurant was all the rage. 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.

    We had a great birthday meal at Butch's Crown in the end of July!…read more The salads were divine. The brussel sprout elote salad was super super flavorful and tasty. 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
