Florist, North: Roses and Thistle
With their bright green walls and bevy of blooms, Tracey Scott’s shops are verdant, Zenlike refuges. Browse the spectacular orchids, succulents, and colorful vases, or order a table arrangement for the dinner party you’re hosting next week — Roses and Thistle delivers to nearby towns...

New Restaurant, North: The Market Restaurant

Based solely on the coolness of its bayside pool, Wequassett would swim away with this prize. But it also excels in every other way: The cozy cottage accommodations feel like the Cape of yore (albeit with Molton Brown toiletries and nightly turndown service); prime Signature rooms have fireplaces and...
