Perks Coffee Shop & Beer Garden

Stopped by for a drink around 2:30. Mixed drinks and draft beers were great. $9 for a Fiddlehead, although not a huge pour, felt reasonable. My girlfriend got a raspberry lime rickey, and it was fantastic. The bartender was accommodating as it was not a standard drink on the menu. The bar wasn't too busy and the speakers near the picnic tables were a nice touch.

The nicest owners, friendliest staff which come back every season, the most relaxed and fun atmosphere. Superb tap list and probably the best chicken wings anywhere. Also can’t beat the coffee and breakfast sandwiches in the morning. Anytime a day, this is the place. Good vibes always.

This place is amazing! The Kobe Smash burger is the BEST burger I’ve ever had in my life and the Buffalo chicken wrap is incredible as well. The staff is super friendly, helpful and I even got to chat with the chef and owner for a little bit. Very welcoming and chill atmosphere, the beach vibe there is hard to beat! Highly recommend and we will be coming back every time we visit Cape Cod.

My wife and I have been cooking to this spot since 2010, when the hidden gem was a quiet walk down an alleyway off of Main Street Harwich Port. What started as a charming local spot with quality coffee and tasty treats has grown into a full-fledged destination, helping to shape Harwich Port into one of the most desirable places on the Cape.

The evolution of Perks has been nothing short of amazing. From expertly crafted coffee and espresso to a breakfast menu with a fun twist, every visit guarantees something fresh and delicious. Their extensive drink menu—frozen lemonade, fruit smoothies, and coffee frappes—offers something for everyone, whether you're kickstarting your morning or cooling off on a warm Cape Cod afternoon.

But it doesn’t stop there. Perks is a Beer Garden featuring ice-cold tap beers from coast to coast, along with a full selection of spirits and mixed drinks. Pair that with any of their delicious menu items and you've got the perfect spot for a summer night out. And with live music and a cozy fire pit, the vibe is always just right.

Simply put, you haven’t been to Harwich if you haven’t visited Perks. The drinks are cold, the food is incredible, and the atmosphere is unbeatable. Highly recommend this gem of a spot for locals and visitors alike!

Coffee was amazing!

Perks is the best. Great food, drinks, people and location.

We recently vacationed in the Cape and Perks was the ONLY place we repeatedly went back to. Their coffee and breakfast was equally as amazing as their lobster rolls, steamed shrimp, and wings for dinner. The atmosphere was laid back and welcoming, and we enjoyed the live music!

Visited on August 1st during our vacation. Wanted a laid back, easy dinner with some music. Please note we dine out often, have no problem spending money for a good meal and service and we are avid music lovers. First you order at the bar and pay and tip before you recieve your food. We tipped 25% but recieved zero service. Someone came to throw our food down and never saw them again. We ordered the $32 "lobster rolls" which, pictured here, were maybe 4 inches at the widest part. Two tiny butter soaked stale bread things with maybe 1 claw total split between the two. Definitely not more than 1.5 oz total meat. The meat was over cooked and meh. For $32 it didn't even come with a decent side. It was just a handful of generic ruffle chips. At our table we also had tenders, a Buffalo wrap and tuna sandwich. The tenders (also in the wrap) were downright nasty- over cooked, hard and all breading. The only thing worth eating was the tuna. When my husband went to the bar to ask to speak to the floor manager (since we didn't have a server). They rudely replied that there was no manager and basically provided no assistance what so ever nor seemed to care. When the "music " started the speakers were positioned head level on the walls directly at the head of the tables. The sound was distorted and just not good and it blasted directly at individual tables. It was such a disappointing experience all around and a complete waste of $175. This place maybe ok to stop by for a beverage but otherwise don't waste your time or money.

Loved the entertainment, Erin Wilson, and the chicken wings.

Two latte's for under $10. Delicious coffee but the service was a little slow during shift change. So I gave them a pass ?

Cute. Crowded. Homey

The tuna burger is awesome. It’s sliced tuna, order the temp you want, with an Asian slaw on a bun. Simple and yummy. Good selection of beers and drinks. Friendly service at the bar. Great casual place to grab a bite outside.

Unless you’re under 22 they ignore you. Don’t go there. Bartenders are rude.
