The Best Bars & Clubs

  • Roadhouse Café (Hyannis; tel. 508/775-2386): Most consider this the best bar in town and, even better, it's for grown-ups. There is live music nightly in the Back Door Bistro and a sizzling Monday-night Jazz Series popular with locals and those in the know.

  • The Beachcomber (Wellfleet; tel. 508/349-6055): Perched atop the towering dunes of Cahoon Hollow Beach, this bar and dance club is one of the most scenic watering holes on Cape Cod. Although the crowd tends to be on the young and rowdy side, the young at heart are also welcome. You will end up on the dance floor, so wear comfortable shoes.

  • Crown & Anchor (Provincetown; tel. 508/487-1430): The specialty bars at this large complex span leather, disco, comedy, drag shows, and cabaret.

  • The Chicken Box (Nantucket; tel. 508/228-9717): The Box is the rocking spot for the 20-something crowd, but depending on the band or theme (reggae, disco, and so on), it can sometimes seem like the whole island is trying to get through the doors here. Jimmy Buffett makes an appearance late at night at least once every summer to jam with the band.

  • Offshore Ale Company (Oak Bluffs, Martha's Vineyard; tel. 508/693-2626): The Vineyard's first and only brewpub features eight locally made beers on tap and entertainment six nights a week in season.
