Neighbourhood gem

The Popponesset Inn at New Seabury, just yards away from the coastline, offers sweeping views of Nantucket Sound and Martha's Vineyard. The Inn itself is a 50-year-old restored Cape Cod style restaurant that offers lighter fare in a relaxed setting and a 200-seat tented oceanfront facility for weddings and private functions.

The building itself was the Officer's Club for the Otis Air Force Base in the late forties.

Cape Cod residents and vacationers have long enjoyed the spectacular view and fabulous cuisine at this very special spot.

We had a great dinner with a fantastic view. Service was top notch....and our dinners were excellent! The only complaint I have is that they aren't open all year around! Go soon before they close for the season!

The Inn is much more casual on the inside than it seems from the outside (in a good way). Lots of tables have an ocean view. There were 2 rooms open for dinner. Ours was not full but it was still noisy enough yo make conversation a challenge. We shared the scallop casserole which was fabulous. A generous portion of scallops in a nice light cheese sauce. We also shared the swordfish on lobster risotto. The risotto was loaded with large chunks of actual lobster. Great! The swordfish hit mixed reviews. My husband thought it was great. I didn’t care for the consistency but it might have been a matter of personal taste. In any case, The portion was generous. We passed on dessert although it looked good but 3 of the 4 items sounded very similar so not inspired. The menu was quite nice and had lots of options. The service was excellent . I’d try it again and check out other menu items.

Service was great the waitress was friendly and attentive. the food was very good and reasonably priced. You can’t beat the view of the ocean as you eat dinner. It was my wife’s birthday so they brought over an ice cream dessert complete with candle and a happy birthday song. The hostess also came by to see if everything was ok.
