Our server Destiny was excellent as well as her brother who cleared our table. We had a great time. We live here on Cape Cod in Harwich Port and Scargo never disappoints us.“

Everything was excellent, food, drinks , waitress I have to say thou how impressed we were with your host. What a nice young man, very polite and well mannered. Kudos to his parents. I forgot his name, but it was around 2ish.“

“Grumpys is a great breakfast spot that has plenty of seating, great food and a great atmosphere.
We have gone in with a group of 5 and a group of 9 and beer waited more than 15-20 minutes for a seat.
There is counter/bar seating, and a regular dining room with plenty of tables.
The food is great, the staff is very attentive and caring and you don’t want very long for any of it (food, seats, etc).
It’s located right on Route 6a and is an easy parking lot to get in and out of.
The parking lot is small, so it will take a minute to find a spot but worth the wait.
Kids are welcome and they have a kids menu and plenty of options.
Grumpys is a must stop!“

“This is the best place to have breakfast. The food is great and the staff is wonderful. I look forward to going there whenever I am on the Cape even on a daily basis :)“

My mother in law said it was the best flatbread she has ever had and I absolutely loved the ceviche. We will definitely be back when we are in the cape again!“

“Visited for the first time after making a phone reservation more than a week ago - this place is very popular! Super friendly welcome, peaceful and calm atmosphere. We had two pasta mains that were very well made, al dente pasta, flavorful sauce. Very cozy on a chilly night. Service is perhaps a little slow but they want to make you feel comfortable and not rushed. Will definitely come back when we visit cape cod again!“

“We were pleasantly surprised to find Helen's Diner open during our last visit. We've always enjoyed the great food & service in a fun 1950's decor setting. Clean and friendly place for breakfast though we were sad to learn this will be their last season since planned renovations to the Tidewater Inn include changing the diner into a restaurant with a bar.“

“Excellent food! Everything was delicious 😋“

“Everyone is so nice and the food is good!“

“This place is great! I visited in the fall and had a couple Cape Cod Mules and some buffalo shrimp and it was delicious. The bartender Beau was friendly and was doing tricks behind the bar the whole time. The vibe was beachy but local, the people at the bar were all friendly and talkative.
And to top it all off the beach is right across the road. The whole atmosphere was friendly and welcoming. As someone visiting during the off season the staff made me feel like a local.
Come here for a casual lunch and go for a walk on the beach afterwards.
I’d definitely come again!“

“High quality food at a fair price. Food was out in 12 minutes. Healthy portions. It’s clear that lots of thought goes into this food. The lady who served me was super nice. Will definitely be going here again.“

“Wings are AMAZING! Best wings on The Cape!, there’s no comparison!!! JADE is the most welcoming employee they have! She always has a smile on her face, willing to answer questions and always friendly! If she isn’t the biggest asset to DJ’s wings then I don’t know what is!“

“Friendly and inviting staff Awesome spirits Divine entrees“

“Nice clean course, friendly staff! I’d golf here again“

“This place is hands down the absolute best!! The clam chowder was incredible and Matt, the bartender was funny, attentive and helpful! We are out of towners from Texas and huge foodies. It was all good!! We will absolutely be back. ❤️“

“We dined here last night and had a fantastic experience- our server, Princess, was one in a million. Professional, friendly and just a kind human. Most servers are less than thrilled when we ask about dairy being in certain items- but not Princess. She went above and beyond and completely made our night. She made us laugh (to the point of tears) and was just a joy to speak with. 🌸🌸🌸“

“Farm stand scramble, the frenchy, turkey avô BLT, passionate palmer and a crookie were all huge hits. Definitely will be back.“

“Delicious, hearty chicken pot pie with a surprising little side of orange cranberry sauce that really set it off. The Reuben was a bit in the small side, though the corned beef tasted fantastic.

We were quickly seated, greeted warmly by multiple staff, and a kind waitress took care of us. Glad we stopped by on a whim!“

“Absolutely Great customer service, great food“

“Wonderful place, loved our server, Kellie.“

“Great fresh food, excellent service, relaxing, clean and beautifully designed atmosphere. Welcoming to celebratory experiences.“

“Great restaurant! The food was very good. Big portions for a good price. The staff was very nice. Will definitely come back!“

“Best wings ever! Must try!!“

“The wait time is unbelievably fast . Stopped for breakfast to almost a full house and we met with our waitress, Sophia in record time. But thats not all. our breakfasts which i will say was probably the best we have had was delivered in record breaking time. we actually thought she was delivering to our table by mistake. But nope, it was our order. The best scrambled eggs i have ever had and i definitely will return for the pancakes. .“

“The food and service is almost always excellent, though there has been the rare time or two that the service was mediocre, and there was once that the food wasn't bad, just wasn't as good as usual either. I have a regular breakfast (hot cocoa with whipped cream and a waffle with strawberries and whipped cream) and, if we get our usual server, he's right on it. The waffle is perfect, the strawberries are fresh (none of that canned, syrupy stuff), and there's usually a decent amount of whipped cream. In the off-season, they offer smaller meals for <$10 from 7-9 AM.“

“Great food and prices! Try it out! Support your local restaurants!“

“This place has had a complete makeover. Bright and cherry inside. Waitress was wonderful as was the food. Espresso martinis were 5 stars. Will be back“
