Cape Cod's Pilot House Reopens With New Menu For Summer Season

SANDWICH, MA — There's a sweet spot in the Cape Cod culinary scene in when the winter weather finally breaks and the sun shines a bit longer.

That sweet spot hits sometime in late April or early May, when the seasonal residents and tourists have yet to head east or north or whatever other direction they do to crowd the bridges and roads. Yes, for about a month the Cape's seasonal restaurants open ahead of the summer season, when the locals can enjoy the early days of the operation without the summer crowds.

As it happens, that sweet spot is starting to hit on the Cape, and the latest restaurant to reopen is the Pilot House in Sandwich.

Pilot House has reopened with both a new menu and updates to the interior and exterior of the restaurant and lounge space, but rest assured, the new menu remains heavy on seafood and other fare that the region is known for.

The Pilot House will be open from 11:30 to 9 p.m. Thursday to Sunday, and is located at 14 Gallo Rd.
