Crema's Take

The Flying Fish is a pastry destination first and foremost, with reviewers consistently raving about their croissants and fresh-baked items like fruit crostatas and blueberry brie scones that justify a detour even if you're just passing through. The outdoor deck is genuinely appealing and captures that relaxed Cape Cod vibe, though be prepared for leisurely pacing if you're sitting down—takeaway is your best bet for speed. Coffee is solid and reliable, making this an ideal spot for breakfast or a mid-morning break rather than a quick caffeine run.

What to expect

Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, quick-grab, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast and pastries on the menu.

While most of the negative reviews center around the service, this place is a bit understaffed so take them with a grain of salt. It seems the only seating is on the patio (though I have not been when it is raining) which is quite spacious and dog friendly. The food was amazing…

Best breakfast in the Cape!!!! We were looking some breakfast options at a local place. This was just a little detour to the state highway and in such a cozy corner. The vibe was local, right from an American home type. I asked them about their best suggestions and they said…
