Yesterday was another beautiful beach day. We spent the day walking at Race Point Beach, but I did not take any pictures. We went in to town for dinner and on a whim decided to check out the Governor Bradford. This used to be a divey bar, but someone bought it and spiffed it up and changed the menu a year or two ago. I took some pictures of the rehabbed interior (most people were eating out on the large patio, but my sister wanted to sit inside)
New menu
Drinks for my husband and sister
Husband's second drink was a beer. They had a very good beer list, with things like Trillium on tap. That brewery is only a couple of miles from our house, so he went for a Bissel Brothers IPA on tap. We visited that brewery when we brought my niece up to Maine for college tours. I have not had beer in years but remember how much I liked that one.
Appetizers were hake katzu (too heavy on the breading, but very crunchy)
Oyster bao buns. I really liked the pickles in these, but the buns could have been softer
Niece wanted the spicy pork dan dan noodles. She enjoyed it.
I chose the tuna bolognese. I prefer the version at Blackfish in Truro (and the version I make at home) but it was acceptable.
My husband and sister both chose the tuna frites. They both really enjoyed this. I snuck a fry and they were nice and crispy.
Overall we thought it was pretty good, but not sure we will come back, since there are so many other choices in town. We did hear a couple of tables complaining about the new menu. We never ate here before the rehab so I'm not sure what it used to be like. We always thought it was more for drinks and live entertainment (which they still have) than food.
Dessert was ice cream from Lewis Brothers. I chose peppermint stick and husband had coffee heath.
It was too windy to go to the beach for sunset, so we watched it from the house
