The Crow’s Nest of West Dennis, a 144-year-old Victorian-Greek Revival at 230 Main Street in the heart of West Dennis, will feature three period-appointed rooms, each with private bath. The restaurant, located within, takes the experience of personal dining to a level not found on the Cape. Set amidst intimate surroundings in one of two turn-of-the-century dining rooms, patrons will be taken on a seasonally inspired culinary journey every Monday through Saturday via an ever-changing menu – from evening to evening, season to season.

Attempting to reinvent and reintroduce intimate, personal dining to Cape Cod, Executive Chef Keith W. Herrick and Chef de Cuisine Brian Kennedy will emphasize varied offerings of fresh, in-season specialties. From appetizers such as Lavender Radish Crème Soup in May to Sea Scallops baked in Ginger Apple Butter in October, all the way to such entrees as Roast Duckling in Blueberry Lemonade Sauce or Curried Swordfish with Toasted Almonds and Coconut, every evening promises to delight your senses.
