Loved the relaxing ambiance. surrounded by trees. The almond croissant was devine, coffee was the worse I've ever tried, food is overpriced and service was beyond slow.

My boyfriend and I waited more than a half hour for one panini that was lost in the shuffle of many other orders and a busy restaurant. I understand that this kind of thing happens sometimes and that it’s not a big deal, but i was very disappointed in how the situation was handled.
Not only did they neglect to offer any form of compensation, the staff seemed like they couldn’t have cared less about the mistake, as there was no prioritization or sense of urgency to correct it. It might go without saying that they were not exactly apologetic. What’s worse, the sandwich wasn’t that great

Stay away! The place will entice you in with solo musicians, cute decor and friendly (but incompetent) staff. Almost an hour of waiting on appetizers to be served and told whoops guess they forgot. Then salmon was - wait for it - deep fried! Yuck. Take it off the bill and off our players please! We wanted to like it. Just don't do it.

Great muffins and pastries, service is super slow, so you need time and patience, don't make morning plans you'll likely wait 20+ minutes for a muffin. Place is super popular, you'd think they would hire enough staff to accommodate the long lines. If I was rating them just off the pastries it's a 5, but the service makes it a 3 star.

Breakfast used to be really special here guessing they don't have the same cook. Really love eggs Benedict and it was not anything special my home fries were really boring and they were cold. My partner didn't care for her omelette at all . Wicked Oyster MUCH better!!

Great food with lots of options. Everything tried is very tasty. We've had egg sandwiches, pancakes, cinnamon rolls, omelette, and similar. Prices are high however; if it were not vacation it would be too expensive for a 'normal' stop on a frequent basis.

Just picked up their Greek salad with chicken and it was very good. Nice portion. Also had dinner & cocktails here a couple nights ago; bartender / waitstaff were extremely friendly. Love the place. Definitely give them a visit. Highly recommend.

We wanted to like this place. Ate dinner here on our last visit and it was just OK. This time my pizza was cold, dry and tasteless. Staff was pleasant but inattentive and never checked on our meals. Probably best as a breakfast/lunch option.

The Flying Fish is one of our favorite places to eat in Wellfleet. Of course their scones, muffins, and other baked goods are exceptional, as are their breakfast options. They are also a great informal choice for dinner (pizzas and fish stew are excellent). The patio is also dog friendly.

Best breakfast in the Cape!!!!
We were looking some breakfast options at a local place. This was just a little detour to the state highway and in such a cozy corner. The vibe was local, right from an American home type. I asked them about their best suggestions and they said omelette. I ordered a veggie omelette that came with bread and home fries. Gosh! The best one. I relished it like anything. My friend ordered egg sandwich and he was not disappointed as well. It was sooo filling and yumm!
Also, the staff and place is pretty welcoming. You wouldn’t regret.
