Brad, Anne and all the staff at the Inn want to CONGRATULATE and WELCOME newly promoted Executive Chef Aaron Wisniewski and look forward to many new and tasty treats for the 2010 season.

Chef Aaron first started with the Atlantic Inn in 2004 as a New England Culinary Extern, has worked at and run very successful New York Restaurants both as Chef as well as experience in the front of the house where he was able to expand and grow his knowledge and LOVE of wine (one of Brad and Anne's passions as well...).  For the past two years Chef Aaron has done a phenomenal job as our Sous Chef at the Atlantic and been responsible for MANY of the creative and popular menu items we have all enjoyed over the past few season...   

WE ARE ALL LOOKING FORWARD CHEF AARON'S MANY NEW AND TEMPTING CULINARY TREATS....

"The Atlantic inn is a evening that you don't want to pass up!"

In August of 1997, The Atlantic Inn had the honor and privilege of hosting President William Jefferson Clinton and the First Family and friends for dinner, while they enjoyed a short day-trip to the island. The Atlantic offers TAPAS and cocktail service every evening on our wrap-around veranda and sweeping lawn.

Watch the sun set as you enjoy a glass of wine sitting on the comfy white wicker or in an Adirondack chair on the lawn, play croquet with friends while waiting for your server to return with your favorite summer drinks.  Each season the Chef's and staff create specially designed menus to complement specific vineyards, geographic regions, importers or specialty brewers.
