Don’t you love when you are scrolling through Instagram and you find something that causes you to do a double-take? Well, that’s how we found out that lunch at the Outermost Inn is now being served! Yes, it’s true, there are fun things happening up in Aquinnah this off-season. Alex Taylor — her parents own the Outermost — wante...

Ah brunch, just saying the word makes me smile and think of the weekend and food with friends. Guess what Oak Bluffs’ restaurant has added brunch to its menu – yes, the Ocean View. There are many things that make this brunch a little different from some other brunches on the Island. First of all, you can get brunch Saturday or Sund...

I love that Fall brings new opportunities for food and drinks. The days of cool salads and icy drinks are waning. I welcome the thought of comfort food and warm, drinks that you hold with two hands, to savor the heat. These are just a couple of reasons why I think that Behind the Bookstore’s weekend evenings of cocktails and snacks...

These days, a number of restaurant doors are still closed. However, Slice of Life on Circuit Avenue in Oak Bluffs is open and offering a you a number of reasons to dine there, on top of the yummy food. Seven years ago, the chef, Peter Smyth, and his wife, Jennifer, bought Slice of Life from owners Mary and Jackson Kenworth (Chef/Ow...

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. As soon as I heard that there was Taco Tuesday, I was in. If you’ve watched the Lego Movie, you know why it resonates so well with me. I’ve had to have a...

The holidays are behind us. The days are still short. And sometimes you crave good pub food and a crowd, and that’s exactly what Offshore Ale’s 2-for-1 delivers. A Frugal Foodie off-season delight! Monday nights on the Island are some of the best nights this time of year in Oak Bluffs. As you walk through the door, you’re gree...

For some reason, this month seems to be the time I venture to places on Martha’s Vineyard that I have not gone to. For this week’s exploration, I went to Soigne in Edgartown. Many of my friends were shocked to hear that I had never stepped foot into this Edgartown staple, and I have no reason for not having been there before. I’ve ...

With the colder days, fewer and fewer people seem to be on Island. However, early on a Friday night in Edgartown, you’ll find Main Street packed with cars. People are enjoying a reason to get out of the house, and dinner is definitely a good excuse. Who doesn’t like to go out for dinner, especially this time of year? So when I hea...

All Summer I have been trying to get to Sweet Life Cafe for what could very well be one of the best kept secrets on Martha’s Vineyard. Well, it’s not really a secret but it’s awesome just the same. Get this, if you go to Sweet Life Cafe in Oak Bluffs, and sit at the outside bar (includes the high top table as well) before 6 p.m., y...

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...
