In Cape Cod restaurant news this week, it’s all about “rising” stars as two new bakeries open in the region. There is a free Thanksgiving lunch for veterans in Sandwich. New owners are celebrating at a Falmouth market and the Fig Tree Cafe in Marstons Mills announced on Facebook that it now has a dedicated toaster and prep area for gluten-free dishes to banish risks of cross-contamination. Also, Shipwrecked in Falmouth , one of USA Today’s Best Bars in the nation, was giving away extra furniture this week in front of its Grand Avenue spot. Check their Facebook post for details.

Minks, rats and a Cape Cod legend

Driving past a neighborhood patch of brush and wetlands, I watched as a critter, sleek and dark with a long tail, slid across the road. My brain tried to register similar animals I’ve seen on Cape Cod. But It was too small to be a fisher. And it was too far from significant water to be an otter.

This Quiet, Sandy Massachusetts Beach On Cape Cod Hides Behind A Difficult But Wildly Rewarding Trail

For anyone who loves a walk on the beach, the Great Island Trail on the Outer Cape region of Cape Cod may make both feet and heart go pitter-patter. That's because the 3.9- or 8.8-mile trail (depending on which loop you take) takes in some of the best ocean views and sandy dunes in Massachusetts. It starts a few miles west of downtown Wellfleet, the beachy beauty of Cape Cod without crowds. From the fast-filling parking lot of Chequessett Neck Road, the trail heads south through an aromatic pitch pine forest to reach the beach. A few steps in from the parking lot, find the grave of a Wampanoag woman, now covered with shells, pebbles, pinecones, and other talismans. Discovered in 1953, the 400-year-old bones below remind hikers that they are walking on Native land.

Miss Lizzie's Coffee says owner Joe Pereira has died

FALL RIVER — The operators of Miss Lizzie’s Coffee announced on Monday, Nov. 9, that owner Joe Pereira has died. “Please bear with us during this difficult time. We will be open for limited hours for the next few days while we make arrangements,” the café announced on its Facebook page. The café had initially announced Sunday it would be closed for a “family emergency.” Pereira’s café, which initially opened in 2023 on Second Street next to the Lizzie Borden House, moved in late June to 100 Rock St., the former Central Congregational Church — the church Lizzie Borden’s family attended. Since its opening, the coffee shop’s connection to the Lizzie Borden story has attracted customers from across the United States and several countries. Historic connection: Miss Lizzie's Coffee has big plans to be a cultural center Pereira's coffee shop made national news Pereira and the café had attracted controversy since its opening; after U.S. Ghost Adventures sued in federal court for trademark infringement in 2023, the feud between the two Lizzie-related attractions made headlines nationally.
