Sunday Coastal Grille Series at the Weekapaug Inn
Sunday Coastal Grille Series at the Weekapaug Inn invites guests to end the weekend with an elevated outdoor barbecue overlooking the Rhode Island coast. Held Sunday evenings throughout the summer, the dining experience combines chef-crafted seasonal menus, live-fire cooking, complimentary beer and wine, live music, and sweeping views of Weekapaug’s shoreline for a relaxed evening by the water.
The weekly series showcases the culinary team’s take on a traditional backyard barbecue with rotating menus inspired by the season. Guests can watch chefs prepare dishes at live action grilling stations while enjoying smoked meats, fresh seafood, house-made sides, and creative desserts. Because the menu changes each week based on seasonal ingredients and the chef’s selections, every Sunday offers a different dining experience.
Set against the backdrop of the Weekapaug Inn as the sun sets over Quonochontaug Pond, the Coastal Grille Series blends exceptional food with live entertainment and a laid-back coastal atmosphere. Whether celebrating a special occasion or simply looking for a memorable summer dinner, the event offers one of Westerly’s signature waterfront dining experiences.
