My husband and son loved the shrimp piccata, poke bowl was good but I ordered the fish taco, grilled instead of blackened, fell way short of this California gal expectations. read more

Great restaurant with good food and good prices. Good views also. Busy during the summer season

Unbelievably poor service! Apparently there was a large takeout order in process which delayed service for people sitting in. But nothing was mentioned or explanation for the long wait time! The personality of the waitress had a lot to be desired as well. The food was just ok. The AC wasn't on. They charge to use a credit card. Considering their prices, that's a ridiculous. read more

I took my daughter and nephew here for dinner last night, and it was one of the most disappointing restaurant experiences I've had. From the moment we arrived, the dining room was full of flies. We ordered lamb lollipops and wings as appetizers, and I specifically asked our server if the lamb was served medium. He said yes, but it arrived well done. After our appetizers, we waited about 45 minutes for our entrées. I ordered the swordfish, which was extremely thin and overcooked. My daughter ordered the chicken parmesan, and it came with a huge clump of pasta that was completely stuck together, hard and not cooked. It was inedible. My nephew was so disgusted by what he saw that he refused to eat his chicken sandwich because he was worried it might not be cooked properly as well. When I told our server about the undercooked pasta, he said he would "see what he could do." When the bill arrived, I asked if the chicken parmesan had been removed. He walked away, returned a few minutes later, and had taken just $5 off the bill. Mistakes happen, but how they're handled matters. Between the flies, unfriendly service, the long wait for food, multiple poorly prepared dishes, and the lack of any meaningful effort to make things right, this meal was a huge disappointment. I'm still frustrated that I spent so much money on such a subpar dining experience, and unfortunately, I won't be returning. read more

Service was great the ambiance is great also. The food was just OK nothing bad but just OK.

The food here is fresh and delicious. The service is well executed and friendly. The ambiance is all about the beautiful scenery in and around the harbor. I've eaten there a couple of times now and only sat outside on the deck. The cool breeze coming off the water with a cold drink and some delicious blackened swordfish tacos was just perfect. Great crab cakes too. I'm looking forward to the next one. Cheers. read more

This may be our favorite spot, have been there twice this week. Sat on the porch first time and under tent second time. Must have a frozen mudslide- yum! Start with their delicious chowder (my husband says best on the Cape) or the hot crab dip. Their swordfish is a generous portion and fantastic, we both had various versions, his blackened, mine not. The table next door had a huge portion of salmon- next time! read more

Nice location, but very disappointed. Lobster roll was dry and tasteless, and outrageously expensive. We were the first costumers for lunch and ordered the dozen fresh clams on half-shell. The server came back to tell us they only had 11 clams. Does that mean that the clams were not fresh and left over from the previous night? Not good. The avocado salad was poor and bland... service was very cold and not friendly. Not coming back... read more

Terrible service waited 1 hr and they gave ti people who just got here. Never coming again

The Chartroom's bathroom deserves its own episode of Hoarders. First stop: the trash can overflowing like it's auditioning for Old Faithful, tissues cascading onto the floor while a wicker lid sits helplessly on top for what reason? I don't know. Then, you pull back the shower curtain - yes, there's a shower only to find it doubling as a storage locker for cardboard boxes and mystery electronics. Because nothing says "fine dining" like using the restroom next to old office equipment. The finishing touch? A fake palm tree tipped over on the floor, as if it just gave up on life after witnessing the whole scene. The vibe is very much "warehouse with a dive bar dream," and that dream clearly ended in bankruptcy. The food was just as tragic. My entrée tasted like someone Googled "how to cook" and then immediately closed the tab. Flavor was nowhere to be found, probably hiding in the shower with the electronics. And the service? Let's just say our server treated every request like we were asking them to donate a kidney. Water refills were slower than a sloth in traffic, and the enthusiasm level hovered somewhere between DMV clerk and hostage negotiator. To add, the hostess was walking around barefoot! Overall, the Chartroom's is less of a restaurant and more of an immersive survival challenge. read more

Really fun atmosphere and the food is good and the waitstaff always friendly. Fun for drinks too.

Crosby's was recommended by a local couple and it did not disappoint. The service was great and the Lobster Roll amazing. The best part was due to my misfortune. I inadvertently left my credit card ther. I called when I got home 3 states away. Kevin, one of the staff located the card and said the would mail it. I thought it could be a " Yeah the cards in the mail" situation. Not only did he mail it but followed up with another call and text. I know it's not the end of the world to cancel a card but this one had every reoccurring charge on it and I appreciated that the staff there was so professional and attentive after the sale. read more

Kinda got the wrong idea from the web searches. This is more bar than restaurant. The drinks are unique and a bit confusing if you aren't familiar with the brands. Turns out four roses is bourbon.. the clam chowder was perfect as it should be in cape cod. The sauce on the chicken wings was delicious and they were perfectly crisp. The lobster roll was good but not $44 (market price) good. Waitress was very friendly and understanding. Probably wouldn't go back read more

This is a beautiful location - and there is dog-friendly outdoor seating. Service is excellent. The food was good. Highly recommend mussels. My Avacado salad had too much dressing. I would order dressing on the side next time. My mom had the cheeseburger with cheddar cheese. She really enjoyed it. Very relaxing location. Wish there were a few more food options. read more

Great Service , Rood is good , and the location is always enjoyable. Great for an evening or late afternoon outing

Just because it's off season, the service shouldn't suffer. Late afternoon on a Saturday on the water should have been a dream. We were met by hostess and sat down as expected and pleasantly. After that, we sat for 20 minutes with no wait staff coming to attend to us. We sat right by the door so we weren't hidden. Even tried politely to get their attention but to no avail. Sorry you lost a 3 top that day. read more

Must try Crab Cake Banh Mi. This house made crab cakes with spicy mayo, chilis, cilantro, cucumber and carrots are spot on for flavors. The buttered baguette is lightly toasted and married these ingredients to perfection. Catie, our server, is friendly and very professional. You have a choice to dine in or outside. On this great afternoon, outside dining was the perfect decision to enjoy the many boats docked at Crosby Boatyard. I highly recommend Chart Room for your palate. read more

We had a party of six. We ordered wings and mussels for apps. They were both very good. We all had drinks... very pricey! Be prepared! Hubs ordered the burger and I ordered a chicken sandwich without the bun(no gf options). Both dishes were ok. Everyone seemed to be fine with their dishes but seriously not thrilled. Its the typical pay a lot for sitting near the water. Let's talk servers though. The only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 3 is because our server, Liam. He was spot on and he was super busy. Hang onto that server, he is an asset to your business! read more

Bartender Kyle was obnoxious and flirting with women right next to us was truly hard to watch. He then denied have my family claiming they had fake ID's even though I am there legal guardian and they had the same address. None the less are all over 21. Asked if we called police to verify and he claimed nope sorry. Ruined our night. Manager Kevin wasn't helpful, and didn't even apologize in the slightest. Views were 2/10 they have a valet service that blocks half the view. We ended up going to foxhole and Anejo that night vibe was 9/10 I'd recommend going there if you want ti have fun. Food is much better at Anejo as well! read more

I consider myself a bit of a lobster roll connoisseur and was pleased with the Chart Room's straightforward take on my favorite sandwich. No muss, no fuss...just a heaping pile of lightly dressed lobster meat with a smattering of crunchy celery atop a lettuce leaf and buttery, toasted bun. The potato salad side was bland and forgettable, but who cares when the lobster is the star of the show anyway. The location smack dab in the middle of a bustling boat yard made for a charming lunch experience too. Totally worth a visit! read more

The Chart Room at Crosby's - An embarrassment of lobster roll riches - Bars Near Me - Osterville, Massachusetts

I wasn't expecting it to be as delicious as it was! I was expecting ho-hum beachy-town pubby food. (Get there early if you want to sit outside). A lot of the oil rich golfers get there and they can be pretty rude when it comes to their seating especially if they are members of the club. But that's not the restaurants fault. The swordfish was so fresh it will slap your mama! We had the dinner swordfish and the tacos. Both equally fantastic! Ok wine list a bit overpriced but that was to be expected. And the carrot cake?! Holy smokes their pastry supplier can bake up a mean slice! Lovely to watch the sunset. Small and cramped with great service and good food. And the stuffed mushrooms weren't too shabby either! read more

Service is very sub par, bartenders seem like high schoolers that's are trying to be liked and manager seems like he lost a varsity football game and has something to prove. Denies anyone who is not from Mass and says they are underage without even looking at the ID. Food came overdone do not come here if you are visiting. View isn't as great as everyone makes it seems it's a shipyard. Food was good but bartenders and managers suck sell over priced drinks that transparently suck. Tourists I'd warn you to stay away if you don't have gray hair. read more

The best views of any buy or restaurant in Osterville. Prices are on the high side for cocktails in food but what you're paying for is the views in the atmosphere which can be beat. Friendly bartenders and weight staff and plenty of fun conversation around the bar. This is a must visit when spending time in Osterville. read more

Oh no! Lunch unveiled a shocking discovery: the portion of meat for the full lobster salad (now market priced at $31) is around half what it was last season. Guess I'll stick with the swordfish tips, and their newly sampled and delightfully spiced Bloody Mary. Tough pill to swallow, though, especially with the level set in their launch summer. read more

Superb clam chowder. Delightful salad and burger. Nice fish tacos. Excellent service.

Cute, very intimate spot on the harbor. Food is average. My review and one star has little to do with the food and everything to do with the staff. I usually don't leave names, but the hostess working during our visit was just so rude, it needs to be shared. We all happen to own restaurants on the west coast. We know all too well about the challenges in running a restaurant. It's not easy simply put. We have been coming to this location for years, long before it was called "The Chart Room at Crosby's". I have never witnessed anything quite like the attitude of Rachel to the point where one must assume she's a relative of the owner, as I cannot imagine how she even has employment. Her behavior was horrible and as she happens to be the first person you speak with upon entering, it soured our entire evening. Very Sad! read more

I like this place-- low-key, old school bar and fish house tucked into a small marina in Osterville. Only about 8 tables indoors with maybe a half dozen more outdoors on a covered porch. Nice big bar. Doesn't seem to take reservations but pretty organized in managing the line while you can have a drink outside or at the bar. The food is standard seafood house and it's good. Best clam chowder I've had during my two weeks in Cape Cod. Recommend: chowder, clams casino, whole lobster, chicken salad in tomato, lobster roll. Not too much mayo in any of the mayo-based salads. read more

What an awesome little find on Cape Cod! It's in a marina area and a little hidden but it is worth finding. There's no ac inside so it can get hot but I suggest sitting outside. The view is absolutely fabulous! We started with steamers...two pound portion and delicious. I had the steak tips and my parents both had the fish tacos. Both highly recommended. Service was fast and very friendly. There was a wait for outside and we thought we'd be waiting for hours but we were sat within 20 minutes. Prices are reasonable for the great service and the excellent atmosphere. Looking forward to going back soon! read more

Fresh blackened swordfish taco and local oysters.. views of harbor and America3 sailboat ...a ding for no draft beer

I went to the chart room a couple of weeks ago because of the reviews here on Yelp and wanted to give it a try. I always like trying out new places. I used my GPS to get there because I didn't know the area and when I got there I didn't know which building to go to. I parked and saw a country club and didn't know if this was the place (which had a private function going on with a detail police officer). I walked around the lot and didn't know where to go, so I asked the police officer and he pointed to where I should go. Glad he did because I wouldn't have guessed to enter from the back of the building. The actual restaurant is pretty small what what I saw. It had a nice bar and maybe 8-12 tables. The view was amazing! They did have some outdoor seating too which I'm sure you would have needed reservations for because of the nice view. I went on a slightly busy night so I'll cut the staff some slack. I sat at the bar and waited for to get acknowledged. Finally did and was able to get a drink/food menu. Not a bad selection. The couple sitting next to me were locals and loved this place. They knew most of the patrons, but didn't know the current staff too well. The bartender wasn't a bad guy but he just didn't seem into the whole bartending gig. Never really smiled and just wasn't on top of the game. I saw him look at the drink menu often to see what the ingredients were, so I'll just guess he was new. I ordered wine which was delicious. Second sip in I saw a little fruit fly doing the backstroke in my glass. I'm told by the bartender that fruit flies love red wine. Never happened to me before, but I'll take his word for it. I order the lobster bisque which was really good. If judged the entire experience on just the bisque I'd give it 5 stars. It has large and small pieces of lobster in it and the bisque was creamy yet not too rich. I kept the empty cup of bisque in front of me for a while until I was asked if I wanted something else to eat and drink (again it was slightly busy and I think inexperienced bartenders. I've seen worse!). One item that caught my eye was the lobster mac and cheese. Went to order it and it wasn't available. Figures! So I went back to the drawing board and order the broiled cod. It was a fresh piece of fish, but then again it's the cape so I expect that. That's all I can really say about it. Not a lot of seasoning and just bland. The atmosphere is hard to explain when I was there. It wasn't bad at all, but everyone had on polo shirts and khaki shorts. I actually felt I was in a country club or some sort of private club setting (glad I put on a collard shirt for the evening!). I asked the bartender if this was part of a private club and she smirked a bit and said it wasn't but the building they are situated in was private (they occupy the lower level), next door was a private club and on the other side was a private club. You also had do drive by a golf course and golf card crossings to get there. That explained a lot. Yelp says it's a kid friendly place, which I'd disagree with just from atmosphere. I didn't see a menu but I didn't ask for one because I didn't need to this time around. I'll probably try it again and hope to have a better review then! read more

First time at Crosby's Chart Room today. Fabulous bartenders. Especially liked non chaotic atmosphere compared to Cataumet chart Room. Very pleasant. Excellent crab roll. Question though: why has tuna salad and the sandwich been eliminated from Menu? read more

It is a nice place. If you don't have polo shirt, dockers, you won't get waited on. This is a 1 % place. Food was nothing special for what they charge. Loud and no place for kids. The Titans are solving the worlds problems. read more

First visit in a long time off season. Not crowded, chill atmosphere hardly any service. One unexperienced waiter only. Food fresh and healthy though I had tos end back my swordfish because it was like cardboard and I specifically ordered it under done. We had a good time! read more

Very nice to sit outside by the boats. Everyone except me had a great lunch. The clam chowder was thick but tasty and not smothered in potatoes, but there was a piece of paper in it :( , had the most BLAND fish tacos with a burnt tortilla, even my cape coffee tasted tinny. Would have complained but was treating others to lunch. They all enjoyed their meals so I can recommend the burger, chicken sandwich, crab cake and lobster Mac and cheese. I would come again but choose differently! read more

"I drink to make other people more interesting." ― Hemingway, Ernest I wandered into this bar - and couldn't believe my eyes.  I thought Adam Levine was tending bar for Ernest Hemingway.  What a dream come true.  This bar is as good as the characters that work there and visit.   The drinks were phenomenal -  the clams casino were the best ever.  Order the PainKiller or Whiskey Smash. Don't miss it.  Ambience, clientele, great food and location is a 10. read more

"4 mudslides?"hmmmm.. sure? The response we got when asking what they had on draft. Thus, we started our day out early, and very strong. I am not sure if they are known for their mudslides, but they were good. And strong. Very strong. We came here with a group of 4 on a Saturday late afternoon, and had a bit of a wait. Thankfully, the view is stunning, and they have ample outdoor space to wait or to dine. We didn't even notice the time pass (probably due to the strong drinks). We ordered a variety of lunch/dinner dishes, and were overall very impressed. The food was filling, flavorful, and fresh. It was perfect given the location, the timing, and the convenience. Would I go out of my way to go here, or to say its the best restaurant in the area? Probably not. But it is perfect for what you need it to be, in the area. read more

Second try at this place and let's just say it did not impress. The food was decent but the service was horrible. First time there we waited for an hour and half and still no food. When we couldn't keep the kids quiet any longer we asked to cancel the Children's food as I was going to take them home and we were told cannot cancel and they would wrap it to go.... Yesterday we went again after the Falmouth Road Race and mY wife ordered a Caesar salad with chicken and substitute balsamic dressing. The salad came out and there was both dressings in it, when pointing this out, the waitress told her no there was no Caesar dressing on it and brought more balsamic. My wife then found more Caesar dressing and asked for a new salad. The new salad came out with balsamic but no chicken. When asked to take the chicken off the bill the waitress rolled her eyes and told my wife that she had eaten the chicken on the first salad and that she should charge us for it but then with a reluctant sigh stated she would take it off. This isn't what I expect from a nice establishment in Osterville. I guess we will stick to crisp, whimpy's and five bays! read more

Nothing special. Quahogs were just stuffing. Lobster roll was unimpressive and the mussels could have been more flavorful. Atmosphere was nice, we sat outside... seating is in the parking lot though. read more
