Fall is a wonderful time to experience Nantucket, and this week brings another delicious reason to enjoy the island: Nantucket Restaurant Week is here!
Running September 28 through October 4, 2026, Restaurant Week gives visitors and locals an opportunity to experience Nantucket’s celebrated dining scene while enjoying the quieter pace of early fall.
A Taste of Nantucket
Throughout the week, participating restaurants across the island are offering special menus and dining experiences.
Whether you’re looking for an elegant evening out, fresh seafood, a cozy dinner, or a longtime island favorite, Restaurant Week is a great opportunity to explore more of Nantucket’s culinary scene.
Participating establishments include The Pearl, Billie’s, Sister Ship, Bar Yoshi, Or, The Whale, The Proprietors, Company of the Cauldron, Black Eyed Susan’s, Breeze, Slip 14, The Summer House, Topper’s and more.
ACK Tip: Fall schedules can vary, and Restaurant Week can be popular. Check current restaurant hours and make reservations in advance whenever possible.
More Than Dinner
Restaurant Week isn’t limited to dinner.
On Thursday, October 1, Savor the Island at Café 22 brings together local culinary talent and makers for a special afternoon experience.
Then, on Sunday, October 4 from 12–3 PM, the Nantucket Restaurant Week Food Truck Festival comes to Children’s Beach, featuring local food trucks, makers, entertainment and lawn activities.
It’s a fun, casual way to wrap up Restaurant Week — and another option for visitors who want to experience Nantucket beyond a traditional dinner reservation.
Fall Is a Beautiful Time to Experience Nantucket
September and October reveal a different side of the island. The summer crowds begin to thin, but there is still plenty to enjoy — dining, shopping, museums, historic walks and beautiful days along the water.
If you’re visiting during Restaurant Week, leave a little room in your itinerary to explore beyond your dinner reservation.
