2026 Nantucket Restaurant Week: Grand Tasting

Come hungry and discover a delicious side of Nantucket's culinary scene at the 2026 Nantucket Restaurant Week: Grand Tasting! Join us at Café 22 on Thursday, October 1, from 2 to 4 p.m. for a warm and welcoming afternoon featuring the island's talented private chefs and makers, many of whom you might otherwise encounter only at private events or through those in the know. Tickets are $50 per person.

Upon arrival, guests will receive a tasting bingo card to guide them along their food journey. Visit each table, enjoy a sample, and collect a stamp as you go. Complete the full tasting tour and you'll be entered for a chance to win Chamber swag!

Created as an extension of Nantucket Restaurant Week, the Grand Tasting shines a well-deserved spotlight on the chefs, makers, and culinary creatives doing incredible things beyond Nantucket's traditional brick-and-mortar restaurants. Join us as we gather around the table, celebrate our community, and savor the many flavors that make the island's food scene so special.

Interested in participating as a food vendor? Participation is free! Vendors must submit their interest and commit by the end of the day on Friday, September 4, to be considered. Selected vendors must provide their menu or proposed tasting item by Friday, September 18.

This is a rain-or-shine event, presented in partnership with Café 22, our generous presenting sponsor. For additional information, please contact membership@nantucketchamber.org.
