Cape Cod’s food scene is bustling this week with exciting updates, from new dining spots to delicious promotions. Here’s what’s happening:
New Pizza in Yarmouth Port: Cape Flats Pizza Longtime Cape Cod pizza entrepreneur Scott Lopes has launched Cape Flats Pizza in Yarmouth Port, bringing Roman-style thin-crust pies to the region. Lopes, who sold Stone L’Oven in Falmouth, has revamped his pizza offerings, cooking Roman-style pies in just four minutes using an Italian electric oven. The result? A perfect 14-inch pizza with a charred crust and no bubbles, reminiscent of New Haven-style pizza. Popular options include the Luau, featuring caramelized fresh pineapple and prosciutto, and other creative pies like The Riptide, with chicken, bacon jam, and arugula. Cape Flats also offers fresh Angus beef smash burgers and Snowy Owl coffee. The shop, which opened on February 11, is located at 559 Route 6A and offers both takeout and dine-in options, with seating for 35 inside and more outdoor seating in warmer months.
Sherry Pocknett Returns to Cape Cod James Beard Award-winning chef Sherry Pocknett, renowned for her work preserving Indigenous Wampanoag cuisine, has returned to Cape Cod. After closing her Rhode Island restaurant, Sly Fox Den, Too, Pocknett is exploring new opportunities on Cape Cod, including potential pop-ups or teaching Wampanoag cooking. She continues to work on opening a 200-seat restaurant in Preston, Connecticut, but remains an influential figure in the region’s culinary landscape. Pocknett, also a guest judge on Hell’s Kitchen and soon to appear on Somebody Feed Phil on Food Network, is widely celebrated for her Indigenous cuisine, including dishes like Indian fry bread and venison sausage.
Wine Down Wednesdays at The Sagamore For a budget-friendly midweek treat, The Sagamore (formerly the Sagamore Inn) in Sagamore is offering a “Wine Down Wednesdays” special from 4 to 8 p.m. each Wednesday. For just $50 per couple, diners can enjoy a choice of garden or Caesar salad, followed by one of three entrees (such as linguine with white clam sauce or baked Caprese chicken), and a bottle of wine to share from the week’s curated selection. Reservations are recommended and can be made by calling 508-888-9707. This promotion will run through May 28.
Other Cape Cod Updates In case you missed it, new eateries have recently opened, including Amilia Taqueria in Hyannis and a soon-to-open 200-seat Brazilian restaurant at the former Outback Steakhouse location in Hyannis. Plus, Cape Cod is hosting a March Madness-style voting contest for 16 waterfront restaurants, where locals can choose their favorites from independent spots offering scenic dining.
From pizza to wine specials and Indigenous cuisine, Cape Cod’s culinary scene is serving up something for everyone!
