We are dinner out and stopped by for some late night drinks and dessert. Bar service was great. We ordered an old fashion and a glass of wine and got the strawberry ice cream (amazing!!) but our tab ended up being $40 for 2 drinks and 3 scoops of ice cream. We didn't stop there anymore after that.

We started our evening with drinks at Sacred Cod while we waited for our dinner reservation to be ready. Very cool atmosphere there! We then headed to Stars for a late dinner. Our entire night was absolutely perfect! The food was incredible and a true experience. My husband selected his steak from a cart rolled over to the table to... More

The food was good, fresh and elegantly plated...great bar service but expensive for the portions. We enjoyed the previous bar menu with more salad options.

I spent a weekend at the Chatham Bars Inn with friends. We were disappointed that the main dining room was closed as there was a wedding. We opted to eat at the Tavern. We had clam chowder as an appetizer and we each got a different entree. No one was disappointed. Am looking forward to going back.

A 4 Star establishment. Very expensive. Fantastic location. Food is terrific. Service is great. Not the place for the dollar conscious person. The dining room overlooks the Chatham Harbor and the Atlantic Ocean.

My husband and I stayed at the Chatham Bars Inn last night and ate in their Sacred Cod Tavern. The service was excellent, everyone was very attentive and pleasant. The food was delicious. We had the beef satay for an appetizer, tender beef with a warm peanut sauce, very nice combination. Also the lobster flatbread with lemon drizzle was scrumptious.... More

We arrived in time of our reservation, and we were seated straight away. What a wonderful table and view we had. The view, even it being a rainy windy... More

A great cozy spot to hang out at and have a bite to eat at the bar. The bar pizza is really tasty with a light thin crust.. we had it twice..you won't feel bloated after eating it.....highly reccomend it. The food menu at the bar has many tasty options. All the bartenders were very friendly and courteous...we had a... More

We were not looking for a formal meal so we went to the Tavern which had a great selection of food. We were there in the spring and the menu was still the winter menu but delicious fresh seafood and I had a lamb shank that was exquisite.
