Easily the best meal I had in Cape Breton Island. Awesome flavours, execution and quality. Great local beer selectio. I had the Mussels, lobster clubhouse sandwich and oat cookie cheesecake. Highly recommend you stop in and enjoy!
Today is day 2 of their grand opening! First off, the food was fantastic!!! Lots of flavor and very good portions. We were very full when we left. The staff were very attentive, they came by to check on us and refresh drinks often. We waited in line 10 minutes which was well worth the wait. Our server Patrick did a fantastic job. We even had a wonderful singer entertain us while we dined.
The lobster bruschetta was unreal — so fresh and delicious. The staff here are super friendly and make you feel right at home. For the quality and portion sizes, the value is amazing. Definitely a must if you’re in Cape Breton! We are so lucky to have this new spot!
Ended up stopping in here as all other restaurants in the town were closed. It was great! Got the chicken Alfredo and the chicken stir fry. Portions were hearty and it was quaint and friendly.
Best meal since I left home last week. I require gluten and dairy free. Husband gluten free. We were made gf and df gravy. Soup was amazing, salad wonderful. Highly recommend. Dessert is apparently amazing. Gf but not df so my husband is ENJOYING.
Excellent meal! My husband treated himself and ordered the lobster...they brought him 2! My stir fry was delicious as was my daughter's creamy Alfredo. Highly recommend!
Delicious food. Ambiance is great. Ordered the lobster and was pleasantly surprised I received 2 whole lobsters! Decent prices. Friendly staff, clean facilities.
This restaurant is an absolute gem! Our group of six enjoyed an incredible meal, savoring the Philly cheesesteak, Alfredo pasta, Mediterranean salad, nachos, and fried chicken burger. Every dish was a hit, but the Mediterranean salad stole the show—hands-down the best salad I’ve ever tasted! If salads were always this good, I’d eat one daily. The Philly cheesesteak was packed with flavor and perfectly crafted. We also shared an appetizer of exquisite (always pricey) oysters, and each couple had a main dish and a drink, with the bill coming to about $60 per couple—well worth it for the quality. The grand finale was the chocolate truffles, which were simply out of this world. This spot is a must-visit, and I can’t wait to come back!
