What is Van Rensselaer's Restaurant & Raw Bar like?
Van Rensselaer's is a sit-down restaurant and raw bar on Route 6 in South Wellfleet, right across from the turnoff to Marconi Beach and the National Seashore headquarters. The raw bar leads with local Billingsgate oysters and littlenecks, and the dinner menu runs from New England clam chowder ("a house specialty") and lobster cakes to local lobsters, a nightly catch from Chef Derek, and land dishes like prime rib. Their roadside sign sums it up as "Fresh • Local • Land • Sea," with salads and plenty of vegan and gluten-free choices marked on the menu. Dinner starts at 4pm, there's an early appy hour, and Sunday mornings bring breakfast.
