Chillingsworth

Information may not be reliable

Chillingsworth, is housed on the 300 year-old Chillingsworth Foster estate in the beautiful, historic and quaint town of Brewster. Set among six acres of lawns and gardens, it has been the Cape's premier restaurant for more than thirty years. The estate is also home to three lovely Guestrooms.
A second restaurant known as the Bistro, offering a more casual dining experience, is located in our Greenhouse / Gallery area. The Bistro is a great choice for those times you crave Chillingsworth cuisine, but don't have time for the seven course menu offered in the Main Dining rooms. Lunch and Sunday Brunch are also served in the Bistro.
Also, don't forget to visit Kathy at The Bar! The Best Martinis in Town... While there, choose from our Bistro Menu or special Bar Munchies Menu.
Boston Magazine says Chillingsworth… "is home to one of the most enchanting dining experiences in all of New England…in a dining room teeming with antiques, fresh flowers and ultra smooth service. Chillingsworth charms with the luscious richness of French cuisine mixed with a soupcon of brighter, lighter flavors”

Chillingsworth has been selected as one of the Top 40 Restaurants in America by Gayot.com. From Gayot:
"Eating out on Cape Cod has largely been a matter of which dockside seafood house you prefer, with legions of lobster shacks and places claiming to have the best clam chowder in New England. But there has been a marked change for better and better food over the years, led by Chillingsworth. Set in a sprawling 300-year-old structure spread over six acres, this is a major gourmet destination, maintained by owners Pat and Nitzi Rabin, who close the place from December 1 to Mother's Day and move to Mexico, where they run a vacation home named Casa Blanca. The place has a fine antique charm in the main dining room that is counterpointed by a modern, bright bistro on the premises. Nitzi is the chef here and he offers sumptuous French and American cuisine in seven-course dinners or in the lighter à la carte menu. Seared line-caught cod comes with jicama, apple, sea beans, bacon, and cream with chervil--the very essence of sublimated New England fare, while jumbo squash and mascarpone are the filling for ravioli with pork loin in a Beaujolais-and-rosemary pork reduction. The precision of French pastry is demonstrated in a textbook example of a chocolate pyramide with fruit and in three impeccably creamy crèmes brûlées."
