I ate here a few months ago, and while the food did not live up to the expectation of the price, it was nonetheless fantastic food. We had a 5-course meal that included a very rich lobster bisque, a somewhat average salad, and a couple other incredible seafood dishes. It's in a charming old house in a picturesque part of... More

Chillingsworth reminds me of nothing so much as a Michelin starred restaurant in the French countryside. Our dinner in the main dining room was simply outstanding. My appetizer of an oyster on puff pastry plus an oyster shooter was one of the more unique and delicious dishes that I have ever had. My wife's selection of an appetizer of shrimp... More

We brought my wife for her 50th birthday celebration and ate in the main dining area. We had a beautiful fire and room all to ourselves for a party of seven. The wait staff was great but more importantly the food was out of this world. the food ranks with top restaurants in Boston with a much more cozy and... More

I married a Cape Codder & have been bugging him to take me to this restaurant for close to 30 years. We were finally in Brewster when Chillingsworth was open (we often go in winter) & I was so excited about what I thought would be a culinary experience. So mediocre! Perhaps the laurels I recall are from long days... More

Well, we finally got to go when friends suggested the Bistro part of the restaurant. I can really take this place off my list now. Whenever we drove past "Chills", we wondered why all the fuss about a place that looks "Weedy" and not kept up with the landscaping and curb appeal. Well, it's old and 1980's on the inside... More

After several phone calls back and forth and confusion (theirs) about arrival time, we made a reservation for 6:00. We arrived a few minutes early and were greeted by a charming waiter who was quickly and condescendingly pushed aside by the host, a brute in a peculiar suit, who seated us at the table we had requested in the bistro...

We arrived expecting french food...first mistake but no big deal, we eat any good food. Arrived at 6:58 for a 7;00 o'clock fine dining reservation and were told by the obnoxious host they weren't seating yet and we should have a seat in the bar - which was full of people eating at the "bistro." The wait was blessedly brief.... More
