From July 1st, 1957, there had been two owners of Pates, Cloyde Pate followed by the Gardner family of Chatham. Mr. Pate opened the doors to what would soon become one of Cape Cod’s most beloved restaurants. Once a cozy hamburger and ice cream stand, Pates grew to be a place of celebration, camaraderie, and community. From the bonds staff made during countless summer seasons, to the engagements, anniversaries, birthdays, and family gatherings, Pates has been a backdrop for exceptional moments and people.

We are honored to steward the next chapter of the Pates journey. A renovated space to create new memories and friends, Pates is still that very special place. With careful consideration, we have redefined this Chatham classic and are serving up an experience rooted in the best things in life: great food, good people, and lifelong memories.

    The food and drinks were outstanding at Pates. We had a 7:00 reservation, arriving about 15 minutes early and we were seated immediately. Our server was very attentive but not intrusive.

    Delicious food. We were seated at a drafty table, which took away from the dining experience as it was a very cold evening. I had to wear my winter parka while eating dinner. The open layout at Pate’s makes for an energetic - but loud - ambience. The food never disappoints.
