Great selection, generous portions, delicious. The bread basket is awesome. Go for the seafood, of course! What a fun location, too. Go early, small space, but worth waiting, too.

I was with two friends and we decided to get three different things and share. It is hard to say what was best because everything was so delicious! Pumpkin raviolis, beef tenderloin and the bay and sea scallops were all divine and as if that wasn't enough we tried the desserts which are all made on the premises and did... More

The small eatery has been here for a while, and hasn't lost its touch. Great food with lots of new and interestingly prepared dishes. Eat here often and have never been disappointed. Their breakfast is one of the best in the area.

Best food around. Presented professionally, with friendly staff and a cozy atmosphere. It's BYOB which is nice for those who wish to drink alcohol, but not a bar scene. It's a restaurant where you can bring your friends and family, or sit at the counter on your own.

Margaret's is small. That is the only negative. The food it always outstanding. The prices are ( dare I say ) too low it seems for the quality. Service is always good, Great place and BYOB for dinner.

I've never had a bad meal there. I get a bit claustrophobic especially in the back room which is tight and loud but I just avoid it and go early. Everything is outstanding, great service and the food is tremendous!

Ate here twice on vacation and loved it both times. The food is quality and the service is terrific. Cannot wait to go back next year. The locals know a charm...

I am a long time resident of Fairhaven and know the owner very well. I see some mis-statements here and I want to clarify. Margaret's and Elisabeth's are not owned by "sisters" They are sister restaurants. Both restaurants and the Ice Cream shop in between are owned by ONE man. Margaret is the name of the former owner's mother (or... More

Close to the B&B we stayed at (Delano's Homestead). Good food, nice bar, reasonably priced. I would recommend it.

Every once in awhile I find a truly good place that needs to be shared. You know when you do it probably will be to busy the next time you go there. Margrets is one of those places. I had the lobster Ravioli my wife had a lobster penne dish. Both were exceptional. We had two of their deserts. I... More
