Cisco Brewery
While most “high end” travel destinations around the world generally stick to the more posh approach to cocktails and cuisine, Nantucket’s casual elegance resounds in the popularity of local brewery, Cisco Brewers. Frequented by the likes of your local beach bum and your international billionaire, Cisco’s utilitarian take on drinks al fresco make it the perfect post beach pit stop. The brewery features picnic tables, outdoor music, a variety of rotating food trucks and an authentic “come as you are” vibe. Located next to Bartlett Farm and just a mile or so from Cisco beach, this Nantucket institution is both family and dog friendly. Stop by after your surf lesson or surf casting session! Daily live music and ample open air seating allows for something for everyone. Want more? Check out Cisco’s schedule and brewery tour!
