Check Out This Lobster Bargain at PTown's Post Office Café

The Post Office Café lobster special is among Provincetown's best deals, just $18.

I stopped in for lunch at the Post Office Café the other day, just in time for their lobster special. I got the last one before their afternoon delivery would arrive a few minutes later, bringing in another batch of lively lobsters, right out of the water.

My fresh, tender, local lobster was served with coleslaw in a light, mayo-based dressing with just a slight sweetness to it. I’m not a big fan of coleslaw, but I ate every bite of this one. There was also a big ear of corn on the cob, and this quintessential New England seafood meal is just $18 when ordered with a drink of $3.50 or more. I had an Arnold Palmer, blending a big, frosty glass of iced tea with pink lemonade. Other soft drinks are also available, along with beer and wine, and an array of specialty coffee drinks and cocktails from their full bar.

P O's Arnold Palmer, made with pink lemonade.

Seating at the Post Office Café is indoors or outdoors on their patio, or you can grab a stool at the bar, and if you have dinner here, you’ll get priority seating for shows in the Post Office Cabaret, above the dining room. There will be a full lineup of performers of all sorts for Columbus Day and Women’s Week celebrations, October 10^th to 16^th, so keep an eye on the marquee box in front of the P O to plan the shows you’ll want to see.

In the meantime, stop in for a lobster while this special is going on. I’ve read all the ads I can find, and searched menus in other Cape Cod towns I’ve visited recently, and haven’t found a better deal on a lobster lunch or dinner anywhere on the Cape. Bon appétit!
