You can't visit the Cape without indulging in some old-fashioned fish & chips, and one of the better places to enjoy this classic pairing is at Sir Cricket's, in the heart of charming Orleans (mid-Cape). If you've never had New England-style fish & chips, don't miss the traditional "clam roll," fried clams served on a hot dog-like bun. Let the tartar sauce flow as you delight in seafood of all varieties, from oysters to cod to scallops to lobster. And on those cold Northeast days, warm yourself from the inside out with a bowl of their delicious clam chowder. This joint is tiny, so take-out is usually the best way to go, but if you choose to stay, you'll no doubt be charmed by the nautical theme and neighborhood feel.

The long wine list strikes the perfect balance between the seafood and the majestic views.
