Did you know that Martha’s Vineyard receives well over 200,000 visitors in the summer months alone? It’s a good thing the island has a boatload of restaurants to accommodate all of those people. One of the most visited areas of Martha’s Vineyard is Oak Bluffs, which is a rustic New England village that happens to be surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean. The following information will guide you through the best places to eat in Oak Bluffs for any mood that you’re in when visiting this beautiful island.
If you’re craving elevated pub fare and some amazing craft beer then you should head to 20BYNINE located at 16 Kennebec Ave, Oak Bluffs. You will find chicken wings and burgers on the menu; however the wings are not only smoked, they’re smoked with honey hot sauce. The burgers are actually two sliders that come with homemade potato chips. 20BYNINE pays great attention to detail, which makes the experience a culinary delight instead of your same old pub fare. The restaurant also serves over 150 types of whiskey and a bunch of original cocktails. You certainly won’t leave this place hungry or thirsty.
If you’re in the mood for an awesome beach bar give the Sand Bar & Grille a try. It’s located at 6 Circuit Ave Ext, Oak Bluffs. The restaurant overlooks Oak Bluffs harbor, so the sights are amazing. You can choose from deck seating or tables that are located on a sand-covered beach area. You’ll truly enjoy the freshest seafood including lobster rolls, fish and chips, and fresh oysters. If you get seated before the sun goes down, you can watch an amazing sunset while enjoying your meal.
Last, but certainly not least, if you enjoy restaurants that have a relaxed atmosphere and a constantly changing menu, give the Red Cat Kitchen a try. It’s located at 14 Kennebec Ave, Oak Bluffs. The bistro is incredibly cozy and has an amazing art collection and hand-painted walls. The seafood is top-notch, but so is everything else on the menu. There’s also a wide selection of fun cocktails, and craft beer to choose from.
