User Reviews of Chatham Squire Restaurant and Tavern

Yelp.com Review - by Daniel H.

2.0 of 5 stars. A nice low-key casual dining experience which is what I want when visiting Cape Cod. However, the fish & chips were not up to my usual standard. Therefore I had to give this place a lower rating....

Yelp.com Review - by J J.

5.0 of 5 stars. For some reason it is impossible to visit Chatham and not get to the Squire less than 2-3 times. It is the perfect spot for oysters, chowder and stuffed quahog paired up with seasonal Sam Adams. The...

4.0 of 5 stars. When I think Cape Cod - I don't generally think Dive Bars, but the Squire is the average girl's diamond in the rough! No need to worry about your lack of nautical knowledge, your absence of seer...

5.0 of 5 stars. My favorite place to go on Cape Cod. Great food, service and everyone in there is friendly. The beers might taste a wee extra cold for some reason as well.

3.0 of 5 stars. If I could have given 3.5 stars, I would have. Bordered on the 4-star, but I didn't sample enough of the menu to be sure. My wife raved about her baked cod. I had crab cakes which was more of an...
