Step into the dining room and you’re in a 1790s two-story “sea farm” with wide-board pine floors and “bubble and wave” glass windows. B&B host Charlotte Fyfe is a fifth-generation Cape Codder and a locally acclaimed baker, whose skills are displayed in the shortbreads and scones set out for afternoon tea. Like most old Brewster homes, it’s had its share of paying guests. Author Horatio Alger came in 1864 and stayed for two years.

Brewster Fish House
This retail fish market-turned-hotspot restaurant serves up fantastic chowder and lobster bisque. Entrees include local flounder dusted with
fines herbes in a tomato-and-fennel broth and garlicky clams with pasta. If you can break from the beach at lunch, indulge in the fried-seafood options–clams, oysters, scallops, or calamari, always fresh from local waters. Get there early and bring patience or a book; this spot doesn’t take reservations and the dining room is small.
