It seems as though we may have to refer the OB harbor now as “oyster row.” On this small stretch of prime real estate, you’ll find some of the most fun places to hit the raw bar scene. Joining in the fun this season is the Sand Bar and Grille’s The Shack. Remember the small building that used to house a sunglass store, and I think ...

Winter Street is one street over from Main in Edgartown. There, you’ll find a number of wonderful boutiques from clothing to coffee to spa services to dining and more. So much has changed on this street over the past five years, and the street is becoming quite the destination. Winter Street is becoming the “Left Bank” of Edgartow...

Meet the Martino brothers, Dan and Greg, who have ventured into the farming industry on Martha’s Vineyard — oyster farming that is. No small feat, it took these two a long time to make this dream a reality, and they still have to wait until Fall of 2016 to harvest their oysters. Why get into oyster farming? It is hard work and work...

The Harbor View is at it again, and we are indeed the lucky ones. You might have heard that there is a new Executive Chef there, Caleb Lara, and with this new addition comes a whole new restaurant name and menu. Water Street is no more. Welcome Lighthouse Grill, named in honor of the amazing view the restaurant has of the Edgartow...

The wait is almost over my friends! This week, The Barn, the Island’s first bowling alley (public) in years, opens its doors. On Sunday, we were able to get a sneak peek at this new, highly — and I mean highly — anticipated addition to Martha’s Vineyard. And………we were not disappointed. We went bowling! It was crazy and so fun and ...

When chef/owner Jean Dupon closed the doors after 37 years of serving memorable French inspired cuisine to Islanders and visitors last Fall, people were sad and disappointed, another downtown Vineyard Haven restaurant closing its doors. But hope was on the horizon. Island restauranteurs Susan and Stephen Bowen were intere...

The MV Wine Fest had so much to offer for wine enthusiasts. With 500 varieties, including spirits, there was truly something for everyone, even for the most discerning palate. With a new address, downtown Edgartown, behind the Kelley House hotel, I think the sold out event was even more fun because you could continue the fun in tow...

Ah a glorious weekend is upon us here on Martha’s Vineyard. It’s Pink & Green Weekend, Mother’s Day, and of course the MV Wine Fest. A weekend made for this social gal! Now in its third year, the MV Wine Fest has so much to offer, it’s hard to choose! The festival starts on Thursday, May 7th and ends Sunday, May 11th. During t...

Bad Martha Farmer’s Brewery is getting ready to open the doors for its second season. Though a lot will remain the same, like good brews and a fabulous beer  garden, lots of new things are on tap. Small Bites I stopped by to meet brewer Jim Carleton and their newest addition, Sara Shaughnessy, who will be heading up the food ...

Last week, James Goff and Tanya Chipperfield opened their new restaurant, Wolf’s Den Pizzeria, on Beach Road in Vineyard Haven. Before this endeavor, James and Tanya had taken over Bob’s Pizza up on Main Street in Vineyard Haven. At that location, they quickly developed a big following with their fresh food, amazing pizza...
