Not overly sophisticated cuisine, but with old songs playing in the background the service made me feel at home, while watching the sun set over the harbor.

Anyhow, I had a local red ale and tried cod tongues for the first time. Delicious!

Came across this establishment on Saturday as we were driving between Glace Bay and New Waterford. I saw the sign advertising Hires Root Beer and couldn't resist pulling in to see if they actually had any. They don't. (Hires Root Beer is only sold in limited areas in the US, and is in competition with A&W Root Beer which comes from the same bottling plant...sad really) However, I went with a root beer float anyway (Dad's root beer, if I recall) and sat out on one of the park benches overlooking the water, enjoying the view. If you are looking for a place to grab a quick snack, this is definitely one to put on your list!
