Newes from America

Martha's Vineyard


Steeped in history, this snug brick-and-timber pub is part of the Kelley House, built in 1742. With a fire roaring, it's the perfect place to sample some craft brews, and the food menu is good and wide-ranging (from ribs to fish and chips, $14 to $17). There's a kids' menu, and occasional live music, too.
