    Blueberry crumble with vanilla ice cream
    Cynthia Y.

    AYCE mussels and seafood chowder + a choice of mains (lobster, crab, etc.) + dessert + tea/coffee. Service is friendly and refills of AYCE is fast. Nice tables inside with windows looking out to scenic lake! Wonderful dining experience of fresh local seafoods

    Register inside and prepare to wait to hear your name called. Maybe go into the Legion and have a beer.

    If you've never done a traditional Maritime Lobster Supper, this is your chance. Fair warning, be prepared to wait for a table to come available (after giving your name) and expect to get messy (and love doing so). There are various a la carte options, including Lobster, Crab, and even Steak (this latter seems to be the least expensive item). But if you're planning on having a couple of additional items like a cup of chowder or dessert, consider doing the full all-you-can eat chowder and mussels dinner. I did. My spouse opted for Lobster a la carte and had a taste of my chowder. The cup of chowder and a generous bowl of mussels (and an empty pail) were delivered. The chowder was flavourful and contained a fair bit of seafood, it also was not overly thickened with flour. The mussels were fresh and I enjoyed polishing off what I was served. Our server came back to see if I wanted more of either but I decided it was wiser for me to just move on to the lobster. The lobster was about 1-1/4 to 1-1/2 pounds as advertised and was already cracked. Claws off the body, tail taken off and split. Plus there was a nut cracker and a tool for getting meat out of tight places. Our server helped us into our disposable bibs and we got to work. The lobster was flavourful and we enjoyed the challenge of extracting and consuming each morsel. Dinner was finished off with dessert. My was rhubarb crumble and my spouse chose blueberry. I think mine was better, there was of course added sugar but not so much that the tartness of the rhubarb as overwhelmed. The blueberry was a little to sweetened for my taste. We fairly waddled out after supper. Fresh seafood is never cheap but I feel like we got value for our dinner dollars.

    It's been almost 20 days in Canada so far, and this spot is still at the top of our list. Cute & homey with water view patio. Very friendly & attentive staff. This is a locals' favorite, so it has a neighborhood feel. The meal - four courses, $69 CAN: all you can eat seafood chowder and steamed mussels (which you can keep ordering at any point in the meal). Then a choice of a main- a whole lobster, or a steak, or one or two other items (we came to N.S. for the lobster, so we didn't pay attention to the rest of the choices :) the last course is a dessert with coffee or tea. The chowder, though lava hot, was delicious and warranted another serving. The mussels were outstanding- served with drawn butter and a milk pail for the shells, each serving had just under two dozen. (I had four servings; the last was a dessert) The lobster was excellent with pre-cracked claws & cut tail, and served with a small variety of salads (potato, coleslaw). Mussels were supposed to be my dessert, until I saw the homemade crumble, with ice cream if desired, so my fourth round (5th?) had some sweet ala-mode company. This was a great experience and meal. It has a clean and relaxed family restaurant feel with excellent food and local beer & cider choices.

    One of the best Lobster Supper in Nova Scotia! Great service and fresh and delicious food. Our lobster was nicely cracked that it was easy to eat. We ordered the 4 course meal all you can eat option which includes: all you can eat steamed mussels and seafood chowder. And a main dish (lobster, snow crab, salmon or steak), dessert, oat cake and biscuits, salad, soft drink and tea/coffee. It's a lot but so delicious you won't be disappointed. Clean and updated interior, cutely decorated and spacious inside. But this place does get filled up quickly so I'd recommend showing up at 4pm if you don't want to wait.

    Our first dinner spot at Cape Breton road trip. Nice restaurant with great ambiance. Good and very prompt service. We had the lobster dinner, good fresh NS lobsters. Yup, would recommend this place for a good dining experience

    Strawberry rhubarb yummy

    Wow! What gem we found at this cute restaurant on the way to Cabot trail. Excellent service first off. We had the 4 course Neal land honestly, it's the best meal I've had in ages! Chowder was a thin base tasting deliciously of great fish stock chuck full of fish , some potatoes n celery. All you can eat both chowder AND mussels! Yum! The lobster was incredibly fresh and tasty. Accompanying salads were delicious and just like gramma's! Dessert was strawberry rhubarb crumble- also delicious. All staff friendly esp ours ( the one with the freckle in her eye! I'm bad w names) will try and return!!!!

    Just what you expect from a lobster boil, simple and delicious. The chowder and mussels were very tasty and the Lobster and Crab could not be beat. The Coconut Cream Pie was delicious and a great meal ender.

    Mussels

    Food was amazing, chowder full of fish, the mussels- couldn't get enough! Snowcrab rounded out the seafood, then chocolate cake for dessert! Impressive collection that will not disappoint!!

    Amazing food and service! We had a great server and we had someone who wasn't our server that treated our child with kindess. She sat on the floor with her and interacted her. And EVERYONE was kind there. We would go back. The food was good. The lobster was fresh. Our sever was prompt and friendly. The place was full so food came out at a slow pace. But really the best bang for your buck here. Everything was fresh and tasty. One of the few places that offered king crab legs. So I tried them and they were delicous. And they included lovely dessert and coffee or tea. I would definately eat here again.

    Simple menu. Very very good chowder - loaded with seafood. Lobster was well priced and good. The desserts are great. We had the best coconut crème pie. The blueberry crisp was excellent too. We got there at 6 on a Tuesday and got seated right away. By 7 the line was out the door. More seating than Freight Shed.

    The wait staff was nice and very attentive! We got there at 5:30 on Thursday and got seated immediately. It's a good thing we were early, because a line formed out the door afterwards. We had a bucket of steamed mussels for an appetizer that were very good. Then we had the Lobster Dinner! It was very good and very filling! Would definitely recommend this place to anyone who is in the Baddeck area!

    Went inside and was warmly greeted then sat down to have the mussels and a lobster dinner followed by a blueberry cobbler. The bread selection consisted of Scottish oatcakes and biscuit & I had to have both. Such a tender biscuit! Next our bowl of mussels was tasty and very simply steamed. It was delicious with a home-cooked feeling (simple and ungarnished), just like most of the restaurants in N.S. Our server was attentive and prompt with everything, bringing out lobster soon after we ate the last mussel. I was shown by my fiance how to get the most meat out of the shells but I was not very fast and soon most of it was cold. The sides offered a trio sampler and was healthy and fresh! Still delicious. Dessert was Ok. Could have baked it more for a crispy topping. I've tried a few good restaurants in Nova Scotia and this one was in between, not my favourite but good enough. One other plus is it's located by the lake

I ordered the seafood fettuccine with no peppers, but it came with peppers anyway. The waiter remembered putting the order in without peppers, but the kitchen had messed up. They remade it, but when it came back out it had a very different presentation and seemed smaller. It no longer was served with bread, and it had less seafood. It was just odd. I had to sit there while the rest of my party had their food, just waiting for a long time. But the remade version did taste better, so I appreciated it. With the mixup, we found it very strange that the waiter did not apologize or offer to discount the meal or make it up in any way. The prices for the crab cakes also seemed very high! Compared to the other things we got, we were quite surprised with the small serving for the price. It was served with a smaller version of the house salad that I ordered as a side. The salad was good, but not worth the price, especially as the only thing paired with the crab cakes. Overall, I'd skip going here again. We appreciated that the outdoor seating was dog-friendly, but that was the only perk.

    Great place to eat all around. The staff are the best, especially Michelle! SO appreciative of…read morehaving a nice place to eat year round!
