It seems like it wasn’t that long ago that we were all saying how great it would be to have a place to bowl on Martha’s Vineyard, something to do, get us out of the house. Well, since The Barn, Bowl & Bistro opened its doors late last Spring, we were given a great way to have fun year round. One of the things that has been so ...

It’s now just over a year since Mike Santoro (Santoro Hospitality Group) purchased the Ocean View Restaurant from the Jackson family.

For this Frugal Foodie, we ventured to Henry’s at the Harbor View Hotel where you can find some of the best (and most delicious) dining deals on the Island during the off-season.

Where does one go for lunch when you’re in the middle of the Island of Martha’s Vineyard? Well, before you’d have to go head all the way into one of the towns to grab a bite, but that is no longer true. I heard it through the grapevine that there was a great new place joining the Vineyard food scene. The Starlite Lounge Take-Away ...

The Red Cat Kitchen Hits The Ritz. That’s a hashtag you’ll see on Instagram and Facebook. What does this mean for all of us you might wonder? Well, it means that we can all access the amazing food by chef Ben DeForest. By accessible, I mean meals that are $12 and under, and a daily “Blue Plate Special” that’s $10. Ben has been sne...

For almost five years, I have been writing On Point now, and I still love the story behind the special places on Martha’s Vineyard.
