    Baja Fish Taco  New England Clam Chowder  Clam Strips
    Billy C.

    Needed a quick bite in Nantucket and this was the spot. Got there right before 12 and we beat the rush. Many locals and workers poured in. We got the Baja fish tacos, clam strips, and clam chowder. Those tacos were fresh! Light and fluffy, seasoned well. Clam strips were amazing! Crispy, tasty, fresh! Clam chowder was a bit watery but good. Lots of ingredients chilling in it.

    I had to feed my coffee habit so I stopped by Stubby's. I had a medium coffee for 4.00. I suppose for the island, that is a reasonable price. It is a hole in the wall but they serve coffee. I would return.

    I've been dying to try Stubbys. I ordered the chicken tomatoe pesto panini. I was a good but needed something else. Maybe some seasoning cheese, lettuce avocado or bacon. It was just ok.

    A Nantucket staple! Do not miss the Jamaican Jerk chicken. I tried the sandwich and it was delicious, as were the fries. This is a locals spot for a reason.

    What a gem in the middle of Nantucket! It's a takeout place with a couple tables. Their menu does everything! But they have some special Jamaican items. I ordered a jerk chicken with rice and peas and my friend got a veggie burger. The jerk chicken was slightly dry but the flavours were poppin! Highly recommend this place! Also the prices are very affordable!

    Didn't want to sit down for a long lunch. We found Stubby with good comfort food that just hit the spot. Order online while browsing in the Whale Museum then pick up after 15-20mins. We ordered different food and all liked our orders.

    The staff is super nice! It's the "late night spot" where you get a nice little bit after the party! They get the job done!

    Fish Sandwich with Fries

    Wanted to get a quick bite on the island and Stubby's hit the spot! Had the fish sandwich as recommended by the gentleman at the register and my bf had a clam roll. Both were good. The food came out quick and we sat at the table and ate there. You can tell it's a super busy spot with locals and vacationers. Cool vibe.

    Staff was super nice, had left my wallet with a friend and the cashier was super understanding. Waffle fries were awesome and there were many different options on the menu

    Didn't want to go far, choices limited on the island, locals go here, so why not? Simple choices, cheeseburgers and fries. Island prices, so no complaints here. Street parking, no seats. All good.

    The perfect place for a late night snack on Nantucket. Try the grilled cheese with bacon.

    The Nautilus in Nantucket is an easy 5 stars. The energy is fun and buzzy, the space feels cozy,…read moreand the whole menu is built for sharing. Every dish that came out was packed with flavor, super fresh, and really creative - the kind of food that makes you want to order "one more" just to see what else they can do. Cocktails are just as impressive and pair perfectly with the food. Service was spot on - friendly, knowledgeable, and great with recommendations without ever feeling pushy. It's the perfect spot for a special night out on island, whether it's a date, a celebration, or just treating yourself. Definitely a must-visit in Nantucket.

The menu felt somewhat limited, and overall the value didn't match the pricing. Drinks: My cocktail tasted good, but at $21 I expected more. It also seemed lighter on alcohol than expected, which made the price harder to justify. Atmosphere: The space is small, crowded, and loud. If you're looking for a quiet or romantic dinner where you can comfortably talk with your partner, this may not be the best fit. Service charge: I was surprised by the additional 4% back-of-house fee. I would have preferred to see pricing structured differently rather than adding an extra charge. Overall: I can understand why some snooty people enjoy it, but for me the experience didn't justify the cost.

Upstairs there a barroom and a couple of dining rooms. I would not imagine they could have so much seating. I had the octopus and pot belly. The octopus was tender. Given how hard it is to cook octopuses this was an accomplishment. Then I had the venison, cooked rare. It was delicious. I would return anytime I was on the island.

    Solid 4 star review. Oran Mor is one of those restaurants that I end up returning to every…read moresummer/every other summer for a few reasons. 1) You can usually get a last minute reservation. 2) The vibes are old Nantucket, located upstairs in an old brick house; it's dark and gives off that vibe that at any moment, a captain of a whaling ship will settle up next to you at the bar. And lastly, 3) the food. While meals historically have been a mixed bag, the food overall is a sure bet. Additionally, I love that the Oran Mor is more of an older crowd. I'm in my hanging with a 65 year old+ chic granny more than a 20 something year old influencer era. Ok, some more details. My batched cocktail off the menu was great - the cherry rickey. I love all things cherry and this hit home with a perfect mix of cherry and boozy flavors. We went with the snail app, the special crab pasta and the potato crusted fish. The crab pasta was solid, with the pasta being cooked perfectly. A tad bland, but that could just be the dish was more focused on that crab vs heavy seasoning. The fish was delicious, but disappointment came in with the sides. Sides are usually my favorite part of any dish, and the eggplant was burnt and ultimately kind of inedible and the veggie medley or whatever it was, was indeed a bit sad and underwhelming. My husband and I both were like womp womp. Even the additionally ordered creamed spinach was more of a creamy spinach soup vs spinach which we also would not order again. No dessert because Juice Bar be like around the corner. :) Service was great. We have been seated in the dining room and by the bar, and I appreciate both vibes. Overall, solid. Nantucket dining can be hit or miss with rezzies hard to find, so if Oran Mor is a possibility, I don't think you'll be disappointed (maybe just with the sides!).
