Pepe's Wharf in Provincetown

I got together with my three favorite people in the world this past weekend for a fun girls vacation in Provincetown. Our first night out in the town we decided to head to a nearby place called Pepe's for some food and drink. Pepe's is located right on the water so we were seated with a nice table overlooking the ocean.We started off with an appetizer of Conch Fritters.



I have yet to find Conch Fritters anywhere near as good as the ones I've had in Key West and these ones didn't quite live up to that standard either but they were still tasty. The outside was perfectly fried golden brown but the inside meat was a little bit tough. I would have enjoyed something a bit lighter but they were still pretty tasty. For my main I ordered the Lobster Salad.



This was perfect. The lobster meat was tender and held together by just a smattering of mayo. My friend got the same salad made with Crabmeat.



This was also really good but I enjoyed mine more. Crab is really tasty but I've always found it to be a tad too rich in large amounts. The lobster roll was excellent. It had the same lobster inside as my salad and the fries were perfectly salted and crispy.



Our last entree of the night was the Fisherman's Platter. Shrimp, Scallops, Cod and all sort of fried goodness on a plate. There's really nothing else to say- it was great beer drinking food.



My friend was craving dessert but couldn't decide on just one so she asked for a dessert sampler for the table.



Wow they really hooked us up! Lemon Square, Chocolate Brownie, Blueberry Crumble and some kind of Peach Apple Cake. The Lemon Square was easily the best with a great zesty flavor that completely competed the meal and provided a refreshing end. They were so sweet they gave it to us for free!

Our service was spectacular and we just had a great time enjoying the ocean view. I'll post about the other places we enjoyed but Pepe's was by far my favorite. The atmosphere and service were exactly what we were looking for and the night couldn't have been more perfect.

P-Town is meant for Pepe's!

Had a beautiful cruise to Provincetown last week (disappointed we didn't see any whales). Had lunch at Pepe's Wharf a couple of days before you were there. I had the lobster roll and agree - it was delicious, tender & sweet. And the fries were yummy! Two friends had the #10 - Grilled Chicken ~ bacon, spinach, tomato and goat cheese panini and both enjoyed it very much. Lobster bisque had big chuncks of lobster & the sherry accompaniment was a very nice touch! Another friend had the #6 - Calzone ~ Half Moon Pizza ~ tomato sauce, ricotta & mozzarella. Looked a little too rich for me but she said it was very good. Looking forward to our next trip to PTown!
