We didn’t have breakfast we went for the show and drinks. I ordered the Georgia peach drink, was not great . I let server know and was brought back the berry cocktail, this was much better beverage. This was a fun girls date day out.

I planned a jointed bachelorette and it was so hard to pick a drag show because there are so many amazing options in P-town. But I am so glad I picked this place because everyone was amazing! The show is 45min-1hour and it is PACKED with performances!!!! Even the waiters/waitresses, bartenders, and Hostess were SO FUN and full of energy!!!I love that they offered cocktails AND mocktails — which was perfect for the Brides because we didn’t want to get too drunk before another event.Event was well organized and the gentleman on the phone was so polite and friendly when I requested our large group to be seated together.Would come back to Ptown just for the show and staff!!!

Food was excellent and the waiter jack was very friendly and polite and offered great suggestions. Great outdoor seating area. The hostess was also very friendly. I will be back again this summer for a lovely outdoor experience and tasty food especially the scallops and risotto and the mussels!

We went to the drag brunch today and everything about it was FABULOUS! When we arrived we were seated at the bar. The bartender, George, was very nice (and cute), and made us delicious bloody marys. I ordered the eggs benedict which had a perfect, creamy hollandaise sauce. My husband ordered the Mexican omelette which was very flavorful. The home fries were delicious as well. I ordered an ice coffee which was dark, rich, full bodied and refreshing. The magic continued with the best drag show we’ve ever seen. The drag queens were funny and creative and amazing lip synchers. I laughed my butt off. I would give this experience more than 5 stars if I could as it had it all: Great food and drinks, great service, and fantastic entertainment. All at very reasonable prices. Highly recommended!

The Post Office Cafe was so cute and had amazing service! It was lovely to sit outside along the street and watch the hustle and bustle of the morning. My sister had the lobster eggs benedict- I had the french toast with bacon and it came with maple syrup and whipped cream. I also tried the corned beef hash side - it was good but wish it was crispy.

Awesome show!! Went to the Shartts creek that just premiered and it was awesome. The script was interesting and a realistic branch off of the show schitts creek. The actors did a phenomenal job capturing the characters. You can tell they put in their time and effort. We had the opportunity to do a meet and greet before the show (they did after as well for anyone interested). The theater on the second floor is very intimate. It is essentially a narrow room with church pews and a stage at the front. My only negative comment is we purchased a drink at the bar downstairs than was told we couldnt take it upstairs. A little silly but ok. They did offer bar service in the theater, however the server cashed everyone out very early on in the show. I was actually hoping to order another, but was given the check. Was a bit of a bummer.

Sunday August 4 we were looking for a restaurant in Ptown that could accommodate 13 people quickly as we were heading to the finish line for the PMC. The hostess standing outside beckoned us in. We were up front with our request and she said it could be done. We sat at 3 diffrent tables. That was perfectly fine with us. I asked if we would have the same server as I wanted to pay the entire bill for all three. The gentleman server I spoke with said no problem and I gave him my card to hold. When our server, Gina, came to take our drink order we said we were ready to order. She informed us she couldn’t take our order for another 2 minutes as the kitchen wasn’t open yet. They knew we were on a time crunch. So we ordered our coffees. She then did not return until after the other servers had taken theother two tables orders. One of our tables decided to only order coffee as they didn’t want to miss our friend finishing at the PMC, so they left and gave their server a $20 bill. My husband was at another table they got their food no problem and were finished before we even got ours. Two tables that came in after us received their food before us. When we asked our server and again said we were on a time crunch she said it was coming. We received the food one person at a time with at least 5 minutes in between. One order didn’t have the right amount of eggs asked for and my Avaado toast without arugula came with arugula Which at anyother time I wouldn’t think twice and never mention but I am for this. When my husband left his table he tipped his server $20.00. I asked for the bill when my toast came out. Gina brought it in the cc machine. I asked for the bill, as I always do to look it over. She said I would get it after I paid. I explained I like to look at it with this many people. She immediately became rude. “Well, I will have to cxl the tramsaction and …..”. So I said no don’t cxl and gave her my cc. She handed me the machine I gave her a $20.00 tip. My friends had given me cash for the tip so I was going to throw down some cash on the table. When I handed her back the machine she took the cc out of it and threw it at me. We all were shocked. Gina then said “I don’t know what your problem is, you’ve all had attitudes since you came in here. She turned walked away came back and threw the itemized receipt at me and then said” thanks for the lousy tip”. I then said I was going to give you some cash but now I am not. I was so taken back I didn’t eat my breakfast The bill was $136.00 for three tables. Gina only served our table. The other servers were tipped out with cash. I wasn’t going to tip her on $136.00. The entire tip at 20% would be $27.00. We tipped $60.00 on $136.00. When I told my husband he spoke with hostess and she said Gina has been there 15 years and did say she would speak with the owner. We will never know and we will never go back. If you can’t handle a large group of people, say no. We understand. TinPan Alley couldn’t. They said no and pointed us to the Aqua Bar.

Great experience. Lady in blue noticed us looking for nourishment and invited us in. We where happily me by Ronna who took our orders and served us our delicious meals, all while on her birthday! Happy B-Day Ronna! We also happened to meet some newly met friends while in the vicinity, which added to the adventure!

Review №14

Cabaret shows are in a very cramped attic with rows of what look like church stalls. Very, very uncomfortable venue. Also, buying tickets for events here demanded a $4 per ticket charge for using a credit card. Seriously??? Why? Is it a tax dodge? Given the price charged for a one hour show that peddles tacky merchandise, its a little difficult to see this as professional. Sadly there is nothing historic about this place, its really just a money grab.

8:30 Saturday show was great. Singing and dancing was amazing! Great performance and worth the ticket. Would have given 5 stars but there was one part to one of the acts that, though it was a powerful message, was a little abrupt for the atmosphere of the rest of the show.Drinks were strong. Good vodka soda.

It was pouring rain, everyone was waiting in the cafe/bar below for the next cabaret show to begin... even the performers. Little did we know thats who we were interacting with.Once the doors opened and we were seated....we entered through the outer staircase that lead to the upper level...it wasnt a fancy theater...it had wooden bench/pew seating, very small place, intimate setting with a bar and a stage.The entertainment was absolutely amazing! I loved the quaintness of it all. After the show the entertainers were mingling amongst the crowd and happy to take pictures. It was a fantastic evening....rain and all!

My wife and I visited Provincetown today. Such a nice place to visit and walk around and explore. We stopped in at the Post Office Cafe for lunch. With it being such a nice day we chose to sit outside. The hostess was very nice and our server was very prompt in taking our drink order. We both chose the Seafood Cake. We also both ordered what we thought was a side salad. The salad arrived and we commented on the size (it was a good size). The Seafood Cake arrived. It is about the size of a 1/2 pound hamburger. It was tasty although it was a bit cold towards the middle but was ok. It is served on a bed of fresh lettuce and no sides. The way the menu reads is a bit misleading. We both thought we had the option of French fries or a side salad. Not so! The Seafood Cake is priced at $16 so with my wifes glass of wine I was expecting somewhere in the neighborhood of $40. I was shocked when we were handed a ticket for...$66.78. I saw that we had paid $12 each for the salad. I brought this to our servers attention and she explained that our order didnt come with the option of fries or salad. I pointed out to her how the wording led us to believe that it did. She expressed that she could see how that was misleading but offered no recourse. I asked to speak to the manager. I explained to him how the wording was misleading. He also agreed that it was misleading and mentioned that next week he would be re-doing the menus and he would make sure and change the wording! Even after pointing out how the wording was misleading and he agreeing that it was, there was no offer to make any kind of adjustment to our bill. To be mislead and to pay $12 for a very simple salad with no offer of recourse was sad. We paid a total (with tip) of $80.14 for a lunch of two Seafood (crab cake) and two salads. Much more than what it was worth! Very pricey!

We were lured in by the barefoot gentleman at the door with the promise of the best chicken tenders in town. Our 3 year old chicken tender connoisseur agreed their claim was accurate, having tried literally every other chicken tender in Cape Cod. The staff were super friendly and went out of their way to make the experience extra special for our toddler. The adult meals and drinks were delicious as well. Definitely our favorite place in Ptown! Cant recommend highly enough.

Great place to eat always! Just found out under new management and the new manager, Jack, was very helpful with questions as we were from the Sandcastle. Their web presence needs some work and we recommended someone who could help with that but absolutely worth going there - fantastic food and staff! I had the lobster benedict and my wife had a Greek omelet - both great!

Stopped for lunch today. Monday was pretty quiet. We ordered lunch a few minutes before the kitchen closed for the day. Everything was great. The best part was that I left my bag with some of our purchases at the table and left. It wasn’t until a while later I realized I did it. I ran back and they had my bag waiting for me. I really appreciated that. Thank you so much.

The service here was horrible. Went during the summer while on vacation. They spilled syrup all over a member of my party. The food was also just sub par. We went here for breakfast and the pancakes just weren’t good. I would not recommend coming here because they don’t really have anything going for them.

The flatbread and Portuguese Kale Soup were to DIE for! One of the VERY FEW places in town able to accommodate my husband’s shellfish allergy(also Tin Pan Alley which I’m told is under the same ownership). We ate there several times during our weeklong stay. Excellent service. Very happy 😊.

We went for brunch. I will say rhe service was excellent. All of the staff were very friendly. The food on the other hand was terrible. From the presentation to the taste we gave it a C-. We were a party of 3. One of us had been before and said it was just as bad then but had hoped it approved. None of us will be return. . As a special note the French fries they use were horrid. Limpy feel. Not crisp. Taste was off. None of us will be back unless we hear of major changes to the food. Staff would get a 5 thought. But we are paying for food. Skip this place. So many better places for good food.

Review №53

So far on my Provincetown visit the Post office cafe and Cabaret was okay compared to all other restaurants I’ve been to. It wasn’t bad. I give it four stars. But the stand out wow factor could use some flair. The omelettes lacked even distribution of contents but were there on flavor and deliciousness but the potatoes were a solid failure. Tastes two days old and no amount of hot sauce or ketchup could make them edible. The service was great all around.

It was an okay place! It is expensive for the amount of food you get though. For a bowl of clam chowder, a plate of French toast, 1 beer and 1 lemonade it was just over $50. Staff are friendly though but seems like the 1 gentlemen that took our order is doing the majority of all the work.

New owner, New menu, new decor. Weve been going there for years, and always loved it, but this will be our last visit. For $80 we had an absolutely horrible lunch. My fish and chips was bland and the fries were cold and limp. My partner ordered the crab cake which turned out to be mostly breading and had no flavor whatsoever. Just a single, small crab cake and nothing else. No slaw, no greens. Just a crab cake on a plate.Never, ever again.

Review №58

Went for breakfast. Seated quickly and hostess was very friendly. Service was good for a busy spot. Breakfast was ok. Not great. I ordered an omelet with sausage. Received a fairly small omelet (which they claimed was 3 eggs) with LINGUICA not sausage. Didnt realize it until half way through as that is when I actually got to the filling. Very lightly filled. Probably the equivalent of one link of sausge had it been sausage. Disappointing. Toast was one slice of bread cut in half. My wife had French toast it was ok nothing to write home about. The food wasnt horrible. But $50 for 2 for breakfast and you get a very small portion, not even 2 slices of toast. When I mentioned the mistake to the waitress she stated it was their mistake and my gain made it sound like I got something for nothing. how is it my gain when I didnt get what I ordered???

This place has really good food overall, but the bartender was smoking went to smoke outside whenever he had a chance. There was a couple of times that we needed the bartender and he was outside, the drinks were also tasteless, tasted more like water then how it was actually supposed to taste. We said that we didnt want to pay for the drink because it was really bad, he started talking back saying that he wasnt allowed to take the drinks out, he made a hole scene about it, he told us not to ever show our faces there ever again, its not like we were going to anyways. Overall really bad attendance.

Review №61

What appears to be a fun, sweet inviting spot, turns out to be a total bummer. We walked in enticed by the amazing live music, cute vibe and quickly felt unwelcome and treated poorly by whoever was tending bar, or appeared to be the owner. Jokingly, we mentioned shots and next thing we knew, the bartender brought us 3 “shots” in wine glasses, and so rudely forced them upon us. Then we were charged $42.00 not including tip for canned pineapple juice with a splash of well tequila. Maybe it was the fact clearly, we’re out of towners, or maybe it was my “fancy” jacket I had on that left the impression we had no clue what a good drink or kind service meant. Disappointing, rude service and cocky arrogant attitudes don’t tend to get us many good places. Cheers, this place blows.

Review №62

The food was fine, portions were good- more of a greasy spoon type place. We waited 30+ minutes for a grilled cheese and hummus plate, and when we politely inquired we got some attitude. Then they discovered our ticket had gotten lost, apologized, and made the food right away. They did give us the option to go somewhere else if we wanted, having waited so long, which was appreciated. It was an OK place to stop for lunch.

Im a visitor to Provincetown though I grew up and live in New England. I had a craving for a hamburger. Beef is not something I typically eat so I knew I was looking for a place that was the best though I had no clue of where to reach out to. I was visiting with my pet AprilWhile walking by the town hall area right in the square, I asked a couple of gentlemen that were there if they could recommend a fantastic burger place! they immediately offered the post office cafe and explained to me how to get there. OMG, the Grass Fed Prime Beef was to die for. I forgot the crispy crunchy french fries for a delicious garden salad all for the same price. The staff, though busy were very attentive. I ordered a glass of Sauvignon Blanc to hold me over for my delectable lunch which I loved immensely. You should try it!! Oh, my pet April loved it too...

Food is decent… I just don’t get why every restaurant these days is playing 70s music. This is in an artsy town. You think they’d be a little imaginative. Play some smooth jazz… 40s… French Café music. Something other than 70s music.

Not a fan. I hadnt been in years and it will probably be years before I return. The older woman that sat us inside was perturbed when we requested rather than sit at the table in the dark back of the restaurant to move to one that was closer to the windows up front on a beautiful sunny morning. The male server was abrupt and almost rude under the guise of gay campy! Definitely inefficient. Multiple mistakes on what should have been a simple breakfast order. Extra charges from the bar on drinks we did not have. And the fresh squeezed orange juice was anything but. Again NOT a fan!

I would give this place zero stars if I could. Says they open at 8 am so we went for breakfast. Got there at 750 so we asked if we could look over a menu while we waited for them to open. We were handed a menu and took it out to the patio, sat at a table and chatted to ourselves for a bit as we waited for them to open. The waitress let us know that the kitchen was almost ready and shed be able to take our order soon. We said, thats fine, no rush. We were never pushy or rude what so ever. Then at 8:10 an older guy came outside and rudely stated that we we could not help ourselves to a table, they were not open, and implied we were not welcome. Seriously who treats paying customers like that!!!

A good place to sit down and have a meal. The staff is very attentive and kind. They accommodated our wishes to push together some tables so that we could seat 5.Ordered the portababella wrap without the feta and mayo, with a side of fries. The veggies in the wrap were fresh and tasty, the fries were a little stale though.Would come back again.

Review №71

Saw a great show, but the cabaret is just bad. We saw Trixie Mattel, who was absolutely WONDERFUL! However, the venue sucks-first, the seating is wooden like church pews and there is no leg room! It was very uncomfortable. Second, when we were seated, we saw an insert/add which read In order to keep our costs down, we are requesting a two drink minimum...-SO NOT COOL. $4 each for water and ginger ale? Besides, we just came from dinner and did not want more drinks. There is a miserably small mens room with a line-why drink anymore? I dont remember the ticket price-it was maybe $30-and we were not told about a two drink minimum, so this was not acceptable. Talk about bait and switch. If the ticket price doesnt do it, then raise the ticket price. But to sell tickets and then to ask for $4 each for two drinks from each person, is just NOT COOL. Just raise the ticket price by $8 for Gods sake. But happily Trixie Mattel was fantastic so we got to see a great show, but the venue and required drink minimum just sucked.

Ive been eating here for breakfast since I was a kid. I absolutely love it. Food, drinks, service, and atmosphere is fantastic.I will say this, however, this is not a great place for groups. Its pretty cramped and the bar area is a joke. Ive never been here with more than 2 people (by design) so I get why some give it such negative reviews.The shows are great, as is everything else. But dont bring parties of 3 or more.

Review №77

Good food, pleasant service, space is very tight. I rated this establishment low because of an incident that took place the morning of November 2, 2013. I and three friends, all large men, entered the restaurant. There were several available tables: Three two-seat tables in front by the window, two two-seat high tables in back, and a table for four along the side. We requested two of the tables in front, pushed together. The bartender, a younger man with dark brown hair, told us we could not sit there because those tables were reserved for groups of two. We were instead directed to two high tables in back, to be pushed together. We ultimately took the table for four on the side, but it was extremely tight because we are large guys. No sooner were we seated at our cramped table, but a party of four was allowed to sit exactly where we wanted to be seated. Apparently this establishment is not concerned with accommodating customers’ reasonable requests or their comfort.

Horrible service! Was by myself and passed by and decided to try this place out. Well I got sat and then completely ignored! They sat a group of four next to me and immediately came over to take orders and help them. I may as well have been invisible. From hearing of stories of food poisoning from friends after it was probably for the best. Stay away from this place and go to Spindler’s, bubala’s, Strangers & Saints or anywhere else on Commercial!

Seems like a good breakfast spot. Eggs, sausage, and taters were cooked correctly. Prompt refills of coffee and water. We were pressed for time and they expedited the order after a 15 order table a bit which was appreciated.

WOW! Those ribs were awesome, fall-off the bone done and more than enough for two people but I tried to eat them all by myself! The reeeses peanut butter cup pie for dessert was more than plentiful.

I go for the bar and music scene. Always great bartenders. Food is good. Sit down service available. Music can be loud. Outdoor seating during the day a big plus.

Review №92

Location is good. Service was off. Immediately upon being seated our waiter starts telling us (my partner and I) that its too hot for my partners service dog and to try standing for 10 seconds on the asphalt barefoot ourselves and all that. We know. We did so minutes before walking over. So, I ordered pancakes and eggs benedict, the guy started saying my goodness, thats so much! You guys arent going to be able to finish it! Etc. I say okay, skip the pancakes. He starts saying I can get just two pancakes instead of three, I repeat myself, he keeps going, I say skip the pancakes a third time. He goes back in and comes out with, guess what; pancakes that I said to skip and the benedict. I would have sent the pancakes back if it wasnt for how small they were (about 5 around, which is even funnier given how he was talking about how much food I was going to get earlier.) The hefty dose of spinach between the english muffins and the eggs had turned the muffins completely soggy, eggs were cooked way past the point of being runny. Finish the oh-so-massive meal in about 10 minutes, want some more water. Waiter is nowhere to be found. My partner asks the lady up front if she can get us more water, she calls for the waiter (I think his name was Alan or Adam, didnt quite catch it). A different waiter brings us more iced water, then about 5 minutes later our original waiter comes out and gives us some (warm) water.Its worth mentioning though, everyone elses waiter seemed to be in a much better mood, and the one who brought us the iced water when Alan(?) failed to deliver was super helpful.

Great Martinis! Hilarious comedian! I dont know about the food. Last time I ate there was probably 20 years ago, but having stayed on business for so long under the same name, probablyly speaks well of the business overall.

Love this place! We had the swordfish and the steak tips last night! Phenomenal!

Al
Review №95

Absolutely horrible!!! I am just gonna give you facts. Entrees are over price comparing with the quality of the food. The fish was over cooked, grilled one side and then stemmed with a cover instead of cooking the right way. For veggies : frozen vegetables? ?? Are you kidding!!! Mash potatoes was so brown that probably keept it from last week. Finally my pasta was so soupy (instead of a creamy ),and the chicken so dry definitely not cooked that moment. Usually if you charge that amount of money at least you can do is to put all the effort. Never again!!!

Came here for a little bite to eat this weekend, experiencing what Ptown has to offer. We ordered the nachos and a couple round of drinks. The nachos were massive and the best I have had considering my new bedford home location. So much guac and so delicious. My first margarita was not good. There were way too many limes and it tasted like the rind. After that I switched to a long island and oddly enough that was spot on. Hubby had himself a long island and then an Oreo mudslide and both were spot on. There was a few things we def wanted to try so we will be back for a visit for sure.

Review №99

Nice atmosphere and staff, but meh food -- especially for the big price. Rice was a little hard, veggies overdone, very small portions for the price. Those that ordered non-fried seafood in our group were particularly let down. Would probably not go back, but by far not the worst.

This restaurant has the best breakfast in Provincetown, maybe even the best breakfast in all of Massachusetts. Everyone is really friendly and they are responsible priced.Above the cafe is a cabaret room. You can see great little shows about $30. However, we where not told that there was also a two drink minimum so just be aware. When I was there I saw Raja Gemini (winner of Season three of Rupauls Drag Race) and she was amazing in her show Lush Life.This is a must stop for anyone staying in Provincetown.

Got yelled at as we got there for trying to sit at the bar, then were completed ognored for 5 monutes before being seated at the very end of an empty bar, only to be utterly ignored by the bartender who gave us on3 drink each and then ignored us to drink his own drink watch tv play on the phone or just straight disappear never to be heard from again. Were ignore by all the other staff finally manage to get our bill to see that its 50$ with no itemized list of what we were even paying for. Absolutely one of the worst places i have ever been to.

Worst service I’ve ever had. Took over 30 minutes to even take our food order, people who got here after us got their food before we ordered. Never got our drinks refilled in the HOUR AND A HALF we were here. Never knew who our waiter was suppose to be because someone different took our drink order, someone else helped us get the check and someone else brought us our food. Terrible service all together and would never recommend

We attended the cabaret show upstairs (The Birdcage). Incredible talent, very good impersonations. HOWEVER, the volume was turned up so loud that I would call it downright irresponsible. Its a small venue, only a moron would think you need that much volume is needed to fill that space. We had to leave because of the pain in our ears.

The reviewer that begins with ‘D’ needs to -Learn how to spell first offLearn how to treat service staff-sometimes ones self respect is worth more than a customer ripping them a new one for no reasonLearn how to act when he ‘tricks’ with a staff member (not I, but his server that am) the evening before if he is going to berate a bartender that was simply asking a questionCocky arrogant and nastyJust so this individual knows-Each table around him was appalled and extremely baffled by his behavior towards the bartender that daySoThanks for the reviewYou were treated with respect and kindnessSo the review was false
