Vacation still far away, but in the mood for a little getaway from the Island life?  Well, there’s an easy solution.  A night in Falmouth can do the trick. Think about it  — new places to grab a bite to eat, shopping in chain stores, and being someplace different….sounds like fun doesn’t it?  Also, it could be f...

People always wonder what we do on Martha’s Vineyard during the Winter months.  Well, I can tell you that on Sunday nights, we have burgers!  Since 2007, the Brick Cellar at Atria, on Main Street in Edgartown has been doing two-for-one burgers on Sunday nights, and let me tell you — this is a scene. Soon as you hit t...

For almost 70 years, the Art Cliff Diner has been cooking up good eats on Martha’s Vineyard.  Sure, some things have changed over the years like last year’s renovation and the addition of a food truck, but one thing has stayed the same, amazing food. When Gina Stanley bought the Art Cliff Diner 13 years ago, she kept on the pa...

Finally, on a cold January night, I made my way to one of Edgartown’s newest additions to the restaurant scene, Eleven North.  I had not been there since my sneak peak inside before it opened.  Excited to go, I decided it was reason enough to don a little extra make-up and some fun earrings. Long Awaited As I might have s...

A couple of weeks ago, I wrote about Waterside Market’s sister restaurant in Falmouth, Parkside Restaurant.  Cleverly named since it is across the street from the park on Main Street in Falmouth.  This great new addition to the Falmouth dining scene is open for business.  Offering the perfect place to grab breakfast ...

I woke up thinking that today was the perfect day for my annual trek up to Chilmark Chocolates for Christmas presents.  Imagine my surprise when I found out it was already closed for the holiday. WHAT! I get chocolates every year for my relatives. Chilmark Chocolates Already Closed? First of all, how can Chilmark Chocolates be...

Parkside Market you wonder?  It’s the new sister restaurant to Vineyard Haven hotspot, Waterside Market.  Yes, Susan and Stephen Bowen are taking this favorite lunch spot of mine over to the mainland, 281 Main Street to be exact (the old Artie’s Cafe space).  I love that both of their eateries are on Main Street...

For years, we had been waiting for Cafe Moxie on Main Street in Vineyard Haven to re-open.  Knowing that there were new owners, everyone was curious.  In October, it finally opened its new doors.  Of course I was excited, and was thrilled to meet the Chef Willy Wannamaker.  Chef Willy is a classically trained Fr...

I can’t Bear it.  It’s the final day of the Teddy Bear Suite.  If you haven’t stopped by, today is the day!  We’ll be there from 10 a.m. – 4 p.m.  It seems as though the weekend of Christmas in Edgartown goes by so quickly, and I never get to do all the things I want to. I didn’t make a wreath at Donaroma’s this...

It’s almost time for Christmas in Edgartown and that means the Teddy Bear Suite!  Our goal with the 2nd Annual Teddy Bear Suite is to raise $5,000 for the Martha’s Vineyard Boys & Girls Club’s After School Program. There are two ways you can help. Visit us at the Teddy Bear Suite this weekend at the Harbor View Hotel where...
