About Us
Just One Bite Restaurant Group was born from a simple belief: that Martha's Vineyard deserved dining experiences as diverse and vibrant as the island itself. Founded by Stephen Bowen and Chef Bill Hart, our collection of three restaurants on Main Street in Vineyard Haven offers something for every occasion, every craving, every mood.
It started with Waterside Market, which opened over a decade ago as the island's go-to spot for all-day breakfast, killer sandwiches, and locally roasted coffee. Open 362 days a year, Waterside became an island institution—the first stop off the ferry for a caffeine fix, the last stop before heading home for a lobster roll, and every breakfast-craving moment in between.
As our reputation grew for quality and consistency, we expanded our vision. Fish MV brought west coast flair to New England waters, offering a casual taqueria-inspired menu with a raw bar showcasing island-harvested oysters, fresh poke bowls, innovative tacos, and ceviche. With an expansive outdoor deck overlooking Vineyard Haven harbor, Fish became the perfect spot for frozen drinks, fresh seafood, and sunset views.
Then came The Attic, our elevated tavern housed in the beautifully renovated space above Waterside Market. The Attic channels a modern Prohibition-era vibe with rum-runner photographs from the Martha's Vineyard Museum adorning the walls. Here, Chef Bill Hart leads the culinary team in creating burgers that excite, steaks that rival your favorite steakhouses, and seafood dishes that honor our island connection. The Attic also boasts the largest bourbon collection on Martha's Vineyard, along with an expertly crafted cocktail menu designed to make you linger just a little longer.
Culture and Values
Island First
We're rooted on Martha's Vineyard, sourcing from local fishermen, farmers, and artisans whenever possible. Our connection to this place shapes everything we create.
Quality Without Pretense
Whether you're grabbing a breakfast sandwich or settling in for steak and bourbon, you'll find the same commitment to excellence—just served in different ways.
From Scratch, Every Day
We roast our own meats, bake fresh daily, and make our sauces, soups, and marinades in-house. No shortcuts, no compromises.
Community Gathering Spaces
Our restaurants aren't just places to eat; they're where locals catch up over coffee, where visitors feel welcomed, and where memories are made around the table.
Together, these three distinct concepts—a beloved market café, a harbor-view taqueria, and a speakeasy-inspired tavern—form a restaurant group united by shared values and separated only by a few steps on Main Street. We're proud to serve Martha's Vineyard, to employ talented island team members, and to create spaces where every bite tells a story.
