Great food at reasonable prices. An sleeper of a place, nothing much to look at inside or out but they do the Cape Cod standards the best of all. You don't have to know the staff before you go in but they'll be your friends when you leave. Daily blackboard specials are first rate but I have a hard time getting past my standards of Fish and Chips, Fried Oysters or the Jalapeno Jack Burger, all with a starter of Seafood Chowder. Nobody on the Cape (or anywhere else that I've been) does better fried local seafood and french fries.
Draft beer selection is great for a small place. I skip the Cape Cod Brewery offerings but somebody drinks a lot of it. For a cool evening try the Black and Tan drawn to order from Bass Ale and Guinness Stout. It comes to you in two distinct layers and mixes as you drink it. They have a full bar but only a small wine selection. This is a beer or a mixed drink kind of place although there are a lot of teetotalers eating there too.
If you are in Orleans, don't miss it and if you have to wait for a table, grab a beer and enjoy the locals at the bar.
Lunch and dinner only. They close the kitchen between lunch and dinner and again after the evening rush. Not a place for a late dinner or snack.
I've been eating at The Yardarm for years. I always order the BLT minus the T, and a side of baked beans. I've had some of the other great menu items but I always get my favorite. I recommend it to the locals as well as tourists to try!
The hidden treasure or the Cape and certainly Orleans. THIS is were all the locals go. Never mind the fancy white table cloth, the Chi Chi decor. This place has none of that, It's clean, it's good food, its THE place to go if you want authentic local food. Yes, they have a bar, too. Full of local flavou.
