In the days when packet ships plied the local waters, transporting goods from Boston to New York, a “wee packet” was the colloquial name for a small ship. Cape Cod byways used to be lined with little family fish shacks like this. What’s fun here is the traditional full Irish breakfast, complete with grilled tomato and baked beans. Lunch is perhaps the most popular meal of the day, featuring traditional fried-fish plates and lobster rolls. For dinner, try a full-on clambake. A new patio offers outdoor seating, though I prefer the cute Formica tables inside. On Thursday nights in season, there is a raw bar with oysters from East Dennis Oyster Farm.
