A Nantucket institution and the island’s most beloved dive bar and live music venue, the Chicken Box on Dave Street has been hosting legendary summer concerts and keeping Nantucket’s year-round community sane through the off-season since 1972. Cold cheap beers, live bands, pool tables, and the democratic mixing of Nantucket’s summer millionaires and year-round working residents that only a proper dive bar can facilitate. The Box is where Nantucket stops performing and starts being itself.
