Fresh salads, wraps and soups, Monday–Friday 11 AM–3 PM, at 316 Gifford Street in Falmouth. Order online for pickup, or come in and stay a while.

Our neighborhood

A weekday lunch spot for the people who keep Falmouth running

Cape Island Café sits at 316 Gifford Street, in the Homeport office park where Gifford Street meets Jones Road. It's a busy little corner of Falmouth. The courthouse is down the street, Falmouth Hospital is a few minutes away, and doctors' offices, dentists and small businesses fill the buildings all around us.

We opened to give this neighborhood a good, honest lunch: big salads, warm soups, hearty wraps and bowls, made fresh and ready when you are. We're also proudly 100% alcohol-free, so everyone is welcome at our table, whether you have twenty minutes between patients, an hour between court sessions, or a long afternoon of errands.

Here's a little guide to where we are and who we're right near. If you've ever searched for "lunch near me" from one of these spots, we hope you'll stop in.

About 3–5 minutes by car

Lunch near Falmouth Hospital & the emergency room

Falmouth Hospital, at 100 Ter Heun Drive, is under a mile from our door. Nurses, doctors and staff on a break, and families keeping someone company in the emergency room, can call ahead at 774-247-5263 or order online (opens in a new tab) and have lunch ready for a quick pickup.

If you're looking for soups and salads near Falmouth Hospital, try a bowl of our Kale & Bean Soup or Roasted Tomato & Red Pepper soup with a Harbor Chop Salad. It's the kind of lunch that keeps you going through a long shift.

Just down the street

Lunch near Falmouth District Court & Town Hall
