Behind The Bookstore - EDGARTOWN

I’m a local here on the vineyard and hands down this is the place is easily my favorite spot. The drinks are high quality from the lavender latte to the iced matcha they are perfection. The food is delicious and the staff are always welcoming and just an overall relaxed cool place to eat, drink, and enjoy yourself.

Such a delicious salad! Wish the protein options weren’t so expensive to add on but otherwise loved it. The corn muffin was also incredible. My friend loved her bowl as well :

We never got to eat there because I became ill about six or seven hours before, so we canceled . Then three days later we got a $50 charge for canceling within 24 hours. I have been to many restaurants and live in the New York area and I’ve never ever been charged in all the years I used whether it’s Resy or open table I was told by Resy it was at the discretion of the manager and when we spoke with him , he was not very nice at all about it. Sorry to say- food whether good or not, we will not ever go there again. Shame on you- I am sure you were able to fill table.

Went on the 5th and all the workers were rude and rolling their eyes when there was no reason for that type of reaction. We received a burger with NO BUN??? And we were not informed that the kitchen was going to take a full 15 minutes to switch over between breakfast and lunch. I understand workers may be hungover but there’s no reason for that type of reaction. Especially coming from someone who works in a restaurant this was embarrassing to watch.

Subject: Highly Racist Experience Beware if You're Brown or Black I had a reservation via Resy and encountered the worst, most racist experience imaginable. From the start, the host seated us at a table hidden in the corner, despite other tables being available. They claimed these were reserved by name—fine. But then, the horror began. Our food didn't arrive for 40 minutes. The manager appeared, saying there were issues in the kitchen and many tickets were misplaced—only to later reveal it was just ours. He then said it would take another 40 minutes, which we accepted. However, he returned again to say they couldn’t make our food and that we should leave (though we didn’t have to pay for a beer and 2 appetizers). This happened past 10:15 PM, leaving us with no other dining options. It was blatantly clear they didn’t want us there. Never have I experienced such overt racism, as others were being served while we were told no more food was available. This was not just poor service—it was a racist act. Avoid this place if you're brown or black.
