The Pheasant
Rustic Cape Cod Farmhouse Weddings & Catering
Erica and Adam at The Pheasant are true professionals. Together with their chef they recommended excellent food, wine and cocktails for a welcome party of 165. Our guests were blown away! Some of the comments included "best oysters ever," "corn chowder in a shot glass was out of this world," "most delicious BLT on a roll," and "best wine selection and delicious signature cocktails." The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. The indoor and outdoor spaces are welcoming and the vibe is perfect for a party. This was the perfect venue!
Erica and Adam were terrific to work with and our daughter's wedding at the Pheasant exceeded our expectations. The food and service was outstanding and it is an ideal place for small intimate weddings. Would highly recommend!
About this vendor
Erica & Adam Dunn
OWNER
Not your typical Cape Cod wedding. Think long farm tables on the lawn, a clambake under the trees, oysters on ice and natural wine poured by our own sommeliers. We are three Cape Cod locations and one team: The Pheasant, our largest venue in a 250-year-old farmhouse in Dennis Village; Baleine, our wine and cocktail bar just down Route 6A; and Dunn & Sons Wine, our boutique wine shop in Yarmouth Port. Pheasant Catering & Events also brings our kitchen anywhere on the Cape.
THE PHEASANT
Wide-board pine floors, exposed beams, two working fireplaces and a garden that can be tented for receptions under the stars. Seats up to 50 for a full dinner and welcomes up to 150 for a cocktail-style party inside and out. The Garden Room seats up to 32 overlooking the garden. Perfect for intimate weddings, rehearsal dinners and welcome parties.
THE PHEASANT CLAMBAKE
Every summer our garden fills with long communal tables for our clambake: local oysters, New England clam chowder, steamed littlenecks and cherrystones, mussels, skillet cornbread, sweet corn and ice cream sandwiches, with whole lobsters to add. Book it as your rehearsal dinner or welcome party, or we'll bring it to your backyard or beach house.
BALEINE
Our wine and cocktail bar in Dennis Village, where raw oysters meet grower Champagne. Best for cocktail parties, showers, bachelorette parties, brunches and luncheons, with an outdoor patio that can be tented.
DUNN & SONS WINE
Our boutique wine shop offers private wine tastings led by our sommelier team, a memorable way to gather your wedding party or welcome guests to the Cape.
OFF-SITE CATERING ACROSS CAPE COD
From farm dinners at long tables to clambakes on the beach, our culinary team cooks and serves on site at your home, farm or venue. Choose a private chef dinner served plated or family style, a raw bar and cocktail party, or a brunch to close out your wedding weekend.
CAKES, BAR AND WINE
Custom wedding and celebration cakes from our kitchen. Full bar service with signature cocktails. Wines selected by our sommeliers at Dunn & Sons Wine, with an emphasis on small producers and natural winemaking, plus curated wine pairings.
WE TAKE CARE OF THE DETAILS
Our events team can coordinate tent rentals, florals and shuttle service for your guests.
LOCAL, SEASONAL, WILD CAUGHT
We cook with in-season ingredients from Cape Cod farmers, oyster growers and fishermen, and every piece of seafood we serve is wild caught and landed in New England waters. Every menu is customized to your celebration.

Erica & Adam Dunn
Owner
After co-founding a successful seafood business in Brooklyn, Adam & Erica had grown tired of City life, dreaming of ways to relocate full time to Cape Cod. In the Summer of 2017, the couple noticed The Red Pheasant had been listed for sale and believed they had finally found their opportunity. Adam & Erica Dunn are incredibly excited to build upon the legacy and are looking forward to making new memories for customers.
Adam and Erica were married in the Fall of 2014 at the Cape Cod Museum of Art and have a deep relationship with the Cape and more specifically the town of Dennis.
