Chatham outpost of the Wellfleet-originated Mac's seafood restaurant and fish market. Great for a casual dining experience, but they also accept online orders for takeout. Our favorites: the clam strips, the swordfish sandwich, or any of the fish entrees. Added plus - all the fried food is gluten free!

City/town information
If you want to get out of Chatham for a day trip, head out to Provincetown, the northern tip of Cape Cod. We highly recommend a whale watch (we love Dolphin Fleet) for an awe-inspiring encounter with humpbacks, Finbacks, and if you're lucky, a right whale and their calves.
