This restaurant was highly recommended by our hotel (Bradford Inn). We tried all the popular recommendations but our best meal was here at Vinings. Although getting into the restaurant is a little odd, (walking through a women'ts clothing boutique and being greeted by a bunch of roudy kids hanging out outside a pizza restaurant) we climbed the stairs to the... more

Great flavor combinations. We enjoyed excellent local seafood dishes. The price was actually lower than most Chatham establishments. more

If you go to a bistro place to order chicken or ceasar salad then better go to Boston Market or Mc Donald's! Can not judge your food experience for something that you can get right from the supermarket for 5.99!. What kind of flavors are you expecting?. We just visited this place after walking through the stores in Chatham, checked... more

We've been back to Vinings Bistro three times in the last month. It's a great place to bring out of town friends. Upon entering this 2nd floor restaurant in downtown Chatham, the first thing you notice is the pleasant aroma from the wood grill. The food is fresh and simply prepared -with an "Island" flair. We love the spit roasted... more

The elevator smelled awful... like someone had dumped a bucket of water on the carpet and left it there for a year. Walking into the restaurant we... more

If I could give this restaurant a lower rating, I would. Any other rating than terrible has been done by the restaurant themselves to entice you into visiting. First of all we took the elevator as it’s located on the upper level. The elevator had this terrible awful smell that totally turns your stomach. Okay, so take the stairs, right?... more

This is officially my favorite restaurant on the Cape! We were staying at a friends place in Chatham for the weekend and many of the locals we met highly recommended dinner at the Bistro (Vining's Bistro on Main Street in Chatham). Finally, my friend took us to dinner there. The second you walk through the door all you can smell... more
