This cafe served wonderful coffee! The interior is electic and the staff were friendly. The food menu looked good but we had just eaten breakfast so didn't eat there but it all sounded good. Can recommend this cafe and it seemed to be the only really good coffee place in Hyannis. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed your visit to the Common Ground. Thank you for the words of encouragement and for taking the time to wright a review!Next time bring your appetite with you! :)

This place used to be insanely rude, but fun! You wrote your own slips, poured your own juice and coffee and maybe, just maybe your order came out correctly! And if you tipped....it went into a huge stainless bowl and they rang the bell! Niw, nothing to write about. Our server was lovely but the food is average. I ordered wet scramble..Very dry. Pop over was fun with marmelade.I would not return.

.Had another GREAT meal at Joe's in Cape Cod Mall on the next to the last Tuesday in September with my best friend for life and relatives from off-Cape, out of state and from a friendly, familiar, foreign and near country. Manager Mr. Lopes took us to a centrally-located half-booth near the kitchen as all the full booths were full in spite of the threat of a looming bashing from the remnants of hurricane Florence later that afternoon..GREAT waitress Amanda breaded, dipping sauced, wined, beered, watered and chowdered us as the first course in another fabulous meal at Joe's. Mr. Lopes was kind enough to take a memorial photo of we four..I had the salmon; It was described in a special box on the menu--a sign that I should choose it, I thought. It came with a tasty sauce on top, sitting on a generous portion of mashed sweet potatoes and surrounded by too many by two roasted Brussels sprouts. It was done to perfection. Thanks, Amanda, for asking how I wanted my fish cookedâwell. Yummy in the tummy; nutrish and delish..After all that, there was no room for dessert even though the menu had warned us to save room..In addition to being a great meal, visiting Joe's is always a great experience. The food is great--the magicians in the kitchen perform their magic up to very high standards every time; service is consistently great--thank you, again, Amanda; prices are very reasonable. And if that isn't enough, Cape Cod Mall is just outside the back door with lots of space to walk off some of the calories..This is our favorite year-around sit-down table-service restaurant in Hyannis. I hope to be back soon. It would be nice to see you there then. Tell Mr. Lopes you read about his GREAT eatery in Trip Advisor. He is a VERY nice, hard-working manâthe perfect host. Your dining room is in good hands with him in charge, Joe.Hi Robert,I can't begin to tell you how thrilled I am to hear about your experience. It sounds like everything was perfect from start to finish..even if you didn't save room for dessert :)I am going to make sure that both Amanda and Douglas are recognized by their General Manager for a job well done. We will most definitely be looking forward to your next visit. Don't be a stranger!

Cooke's Seafood in Hyannis has become a Cape Cod institution by serving the highest quality, freshest seafood available since 1977. Walk into Cooke's Seafood and you will know why it has been a local favorite for over 40 years.

We were traveling with our dogs and wanted seafood take out. Cooke's Seafood offered many items on the menu and we were very pleased with our orders. Our fish was very fresh and nicely seasoned. It was even packaged on a chinet-type plate and not just in a take out box. We recommend Cooke's for fresh seafood take out.

Quaint place on the water with very good food. Parking is valet only. Once inside, you are met by a hostess and seated soon after. Recommend having a reservation as they are very busy and very popular. Dress is Cape casual which means virtually anything goes. Better dress seems to help with the staff attention.

Three of us had a delicious meal at the Spoon and Seed. Though it is not a fancy restaurant ("rustic, down to earth" might do) the service was excellent and the food was delicious with large portions. We had to take two out of the three dishes home to enjoy an another day they were so plentiful. We had the Hippie Burger, Curried Chicken, and the Chicken Parm sandwich and none of us were disappointed in our choices. The restaurant is not your typical location for a Hyannis restaurant. It is neither in downtown Hyannis; nor is it in the mall or on Route 132. It is close to Independence Drive, which connects to Route 132. They are open Tuesday through Friday for breakfast and lunch, and Saturday and Sunday for brunch. They have indoor and outdoor seating. Check it out if you are in the Hyannis area for breakfast, brunch, or lunch.

Been passing this place for ten years and finally decided to try it. We were not impressed. The menu had a little of everything on it, and we tried a variety of different things. None of them were very good. The interior is dark and dated, and service was very average. There are too many good places around to go here, sorry.Sorry you were not impressed. We always wish for our customers to have a great experience, and most of them do. If you would like to contact me further about what meals you had, I would be happy to discuss any issues that came up. [email protected] Have a good summer!
