A real local gathering place, this sweet cafe has great coffee, a cabinet full of high-quality eats to have here or take away (black bean and sweet potato salad, Bolognese, mascarpone raspberry cheesecake), daily soups and sandwiches, a sofa or two, and a sustainable, community-minded ethos.
It's attached to the Nantucket Culinary Center, a 'campus of creativity' with an excellent program of hands-on cooking classes (including for kids) and food-related workshops and events.
