Dining, Entertainment, & Shopping

Pubs, taverns, steak houses, ice cream shops, and more. Scituate has something for every palate, and each is more delicious than the last. Locals can make a reservation at a historic mainstay before visiting a cute bakery for dessert.
 
Scituate might be a prime example of New England's excellence, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t have creative and international cuisine. Salt Society proves that with its innovative and delicious sushi, along with other Japanese dishes. On the other hand, for a pub atmosphere in one part and fine dining in another, make a reservation or grab a seat at The Barker Tavern, a delicious and top-tier restaurant.
 
Looking for some essential American fare? Check out Scituate’s own The Rivershed. Here, it’s easy to enjoy crispy fries, perfectly-prepared burgers, and a long menu of craft beers. For a dessert or light fare, or just to taste some iconic ice cream, simply stop by Dribbles Ice Cream Shop.
