A Long Weekend on Nantucket

By Amy Havins @dallaswardrobe

A week ago today we arrived in one of our favorite places, Nantucket. Last summer we spent our very first week on the island and we loved it so much we knew it would become one of our traditions. Although we would have gone back this summer, luckily one of my besties, Mackenzie, was getting married on the island over Labor Day weekend, so we knew another trip was for sure going to happen.

The 5 days we were on Nantucket were not only so special because we were celebrating our sweet friends nuptials but also because it was our very first holiday with baby Ralph! The entire trip was pure bliss and one that we will never forget. See below for what we did (and loved) during the duration of our stay!

  • Eat: Galley Beach (most lovely setting, Wade took me here for my birthday dinner), Chanticleer, Met on Main (avocado toast for the win), Summer House Beachside Bistro (my salad at lunch is pictured above but this is also where Mackenzie had her picturesque wedding reception), Millie’s, Cru (best lobster roll)
  • Drink: Cru (our favorite late night spot…it’s right on the water), Chicken Box, Handlebar Coffee, Lemon Press (love their latte’s)
  • Sweet Bite: Juice Bar (best ice cream ever)
  • Stay: Harborview Nantucket (first time staying there and it was amazing. right in downtown so we could walk everywhere plus all units have a kitchen and washer/dryers…which I have recently learned really comes in handy with a baby…Harborview is right on the water, so we loved sitting in the adirondack chairs with baby Ralph and looking at the boats)

I would be lying if I said we were not said when we left but we will be back sooner than later (hello summer 2018)!
