This place has perfecto Italian pastries, from tiramisu, cheesecake and cannolis, which you can just run in and get-to-go by their gelato bar. The pizza and overall food are OK too but the home made desserts are exceptional.

Belgian café with fine Belgian chocolate and superb coffees. It will take you to Europe, reminds me of legit cafés in France. Magnificent vibe, friendly owner who will guide to your best options. No better way to support a small business, while this place hit a much needed niche on Main St. One that many strive for, but lacks the authenticity & genuine charm this place offers. You won’t regret a macaroon or baguette 🥖 either.

I’ve been walking by it all the time, and it’s a touristy spot, however their home made taffy, fudge and ice cream make it hard to resist.

It’s an arcade with cool drinks and step back into a retro age. One of a kind. May not be best suited for little kids, unless going during the day.

Recently added to the Cape. About a half hour from the house in Sandwich. You need to reserve a 4 hour draft slot, and purchase beer tickets, which you can buy more when on site. Not a lot of parking, can be windy but great view on the water. In regards to their beer, if you know, you know ;) if not you will want to find out.

Art Vibe

As much as I enjoy the beach and vibrant vibe of Hyannis, the art scene can seem like an underground network within the touristy hustle and bustle, which is why I like to take a small art escape within my vacation ;)
This small but intricate museum is a gem that’s only 15 mins away from Old Town. It’s a small window back into time, with unique exhibits.

Went to this museum on Memorial Day for the first time. You will definitely learn something’s you didn’t know about the Kennedy’s and I’ve read books about them. It’s small but overall well laid out, and can either breeze through it in 15 mins or appreciate it all for about 45. A nice of pace in the middle to Hyannis Main St., for a great pit stop in between shopping, eating or on the way to the Hyannis ferry port. Would recommend this historic treasure.
