The Nautilus
About
Found on Nantucket, The Nautilus is a cocktail bar at 12 Cambridge St, Nantucket, MA 02554, United States, set in the town centre where the ferry crowds arrive and the side streets fill with evening trade. Its position makes it one of the easiest stops to reach on foot from the harbour and the main town.
Nantucket Town surrounds the bar, so anyone staying in the island's principal settlement can walk to it without arranging transport. The Nautilus holds a 4.6 out of 5 rating from 289 reviews, a strong record built on a steady flow of customers rather than a handful of visits. That reputation has made it a known address among the cocktail bars on the island, and the website at https://www.thenautilus.com/pages/nantucket carries the bar's details.
From the town, the island's other settlements are reachable by road, and Nantucket Town sits at the centre of that network. Siasconset lies to the east and Madaket to the west, both within reach for a visitor based in town. The bar's town-centre setting keeps it close to the waterfront and the streets around it.
Nantucket's climate runs to cold, snowy winters, so the warmer months are when most visitors arrive and when the town is at its busiest. English is the main language spoken across the island, which makes asking for directions straightforward. Ferries link Nantucket to the mainland, and most US islands rely on them, so a day in town can be planned around the boat schedule. The Nautilus fits naturally into an evening in Nantucket Town.
