New Lunch Counter Operator at Nantucket Pharmacy
January 2020
Nantucket Main Street
Patrick Ridge was head chef at Le Languedoc and would go to the soda fountain at Nantucket Pharmacy for a chocolate frappe or a peanut butter and jelly sandwich on a Sunday afternoon.
The experience was less about the ice cream or the sandwich, and more about the routine of sitting down at the busy lunch counter on Main Street every week. In January, Ridge took over operation of the soda fountain, rebranding it The Counter, following Pete Van Dingstee’s retirement in December after 22 years. For Ridge, taking over The Counter is about both holding onto an island tradition and tweaking the menu in small ways.
