    Lobster Roll!!!

    We enjoyed the atmosphere, staff was friendly and attentive. Everyone enjoyed their lobster rolls and clam chowder!

    Philly
    Jazmin T.

    Came here on before we headed back to the Cape! Steph was great with recommending the Philly cheesesteak! Everything came out hot and fresh. Was flavorful and delicious! And of course had to get a glass of Prosecco and enjoy the view!

    Wharf burger & fries
    Samantha O.

    Sat upstairs on the balcony on the 4th of July for lunch-walked right in. Not a lot of people there which scared me. We both ordered the wharf burger and mozzarella sticks which came out way too fast. Service was good but the food was mediocre at best.

    Calamari... or not? More like fried Banana Pepper

    Ordered the Fried Calamari- and after eating a few bites I realized at least 40% of the portion was fried BANANA PEPPERS. Pretty underhanded method to slide in banana peppers disguised as squid... never seen this before in my life. The other food was mediocre at best... but The Tavern gets a fat 1-star rating from me due to sketchy management practices/ethics.

    Lobster roll
    Joan G.

    We wanted a good place to sit outside and watch the tourists and locals go by. The Tavern was recommended to us. It is a little bit down from where the ferry lands. Erin was our waitress and brought us our drinks. We had looked at the menu before going in. The lobster roll caught both of our eyes. It comes with chips but for a little more money you can get French fries and for a little bit more, some greens to go with it. We both stuck with the chips. I thought the lobster roll was a little pricey at $22.00. After all, we are in Nantucket. Aren't the lobsters just right in the ocean? The sandwich came and it was beautiful. The only way I can describe it is it was on kind of a hotdog bun. The best thing - the lobster just wasn't sitting on the top. It went all the way through the bun. Absolutely outstanding. Would I come back again? Yes, if I'm ever in Nantucket.

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.

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!).

    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!
