I don't know anyone who doesn't like a good potato chip, and the Cape Cod Potato Chip factory in Hyannis puts out some of the crispiest, tastiest chips around. The factory is also one of the area's top tourist destinations, with more than 250,000 visitors annually. Visitors will learn how these legendary chips are made start to finish, from local farmers' fields to your table. You can't get too many of these samples either!
