Seafood Chowder
David R.

Nice cozy restaurant tucked away in an Inn. I had dinner here at the recommendation of my hotel employee. Lane's has a couple of vegetarian options. I started with a Hell Bay English Ale, locally brewed, and very hopsy. I was tempted by the Seafood Feast, but knew tonight was not a good night to order a lot of food. I was drawn to the Quinoa, Kale & Blueberry Salad. And it was very good. Everything was fresh and cooked to perfection. For the main course I opted for the seafood chowder. It was loaded. Great flavors and chunks of lobster, scallops and haddock. Great quality food!

Cup of seafood chowder just loaded with fish and scallops and lobster.

Wow what a surprise we had when we started eating. Sooo yummmy! I ordered the beet salad and the seafood chowder. The salad was loaded with cashews, goat cheese and beets and came with a thick uber rich balsamic reduction vinaigrette. Wow lip smacking, literally!! I loved it so much the server brought me a lid for the container to take it home. The seafood chowder is loaded with fish, scallops and lobster and came with a freshly baked mini scone biscuit. So tender. Hubby ordered fish n chips and he got 2 huge servings of fish very lightly breaded just enough to have a crispy coating and the French fries were cooked to the perfect ratio of crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Overall we would highly recommend this little spot. The views of the River from restaurant are so romantic and every other Friday they play live Irish toe stomping tunes! I hope you enjoy this little hide away as much as we did!

Salt Shaker Deli - Bigggg roll

We had a fantastic meal at Salt Shaker Deli in Lunenburg, and the locally sourced ingredients…read morereally stood out. The scallop linguini was amazing, featuring Adams & Knickle scallops, Oulton's smoked bacon, arugula, garlic, and Parmesan. The combination of fresh local scallops with the smoky bacon and greens was absolutely delicious. Love seeing local ingredients showcased this well! Their lobster roll was also one of the best we've had. Great seasoning with tarragon, mayo, celery, and greens, all tucked into a homemade roll. Simple, fresh, and perfectly balanced. The seafood linguini was basically Nova Scotia on a plate... loaded with scallops, mussels, and shrimp. We absolutely loved it... although it could have used just one more local ingredient: lobster! And then there was the linguine limone, which was another standout. Bright, fresh lemon zest with toasted pine nuts made for a fantastic pasta. By the end, there was absolutely no room for dessert which is probably a good sign of how much we enjoyed the meal! Great local ingredients, generous portions, and delicious seafood. A must-try when visiting Lunenburg.

Salt Shaker Deli is a lovely restaurant/inn by the waterfront of Lunenburg. I came here because I'd…read moreseen many reels featuring its famous lobster roll and chowder, which have been regarded as some of the best in town by many locals and visitors. The patio setup is absolutely gorgeous, with views of the Bluenose II and many other ships along the shoreline. The service was also very friendly. Food-wise, the portion was EXTREMELY satisfying. At $34, it's probably one of the biggest lobster rolls around, filled to the top with lobster meat (I also LOVED that they used arugula instead of lettuce). It's worth every penny. The chowder was also very nice - piping hot and full of seafood and potatoes. The potato wedges? Big, phat wedges that were probably made from two whole russet potatoes, paired with a super creamy and delicious, pepper-forward aioli. Yes and love it!! A few things that could be improved with the food, though: The lobster roll could use some additional seasoning/dressing. Cold lobster rolls often need a bit more seasoning or dressing since the meat itself isn't as flavour-forward as it is in warm rolls. The chowder was great, but I usually prefer mine to be creamier and thicker. Lastly, the potato wedges could use a bit more crispiness on the exterior to elevate them to perfection. Perhaps a double fry? Overall, I think this restaurant is still worth every penny, especially considering the generous portions and how extremely fresh the food is. I really enjoyed my meal.

Bridgewater has a few really good eateries - none are more satisfying than Fancy Pants…read more When I'm going to be good to myself and want quality food prepared with taste and health as priority - this is where I go. They're not after everyone / but they certainly provide me with satisfying nourishment as I move about my day. If I am not going to make the effort this time to prepare my own food this is my go to first choice. It's also where I go if I want not only great taste and nourishment but Opperators and staff who remember you and some of your favorite items. I'm often shooting images and running off to a meeting and there's not much time to make a meal. This is where I go to treat myself - it's something I do to celebrate being generally healthy and mobile. I've never been let down - and I can give you a list of places that have. You shouldn't need a pic of my last meal here - what I think you need is to realize if I'm spending this much time on a review - perhaps you need to see what I'm on about. Good luck ! Now where did I put my camera ?

At first we thought its a bit pricey for a sandwich but it was a special treat after all Very busy location but you can eat outside which was lovely And it was great to be in the company of a very beautiful person who treated me for lunch Highly recommend the BLT or the ham and swiss sandwich ..yes you can tell the difference of a quality sandwich... And we had Black Bean Brownie and a date square just to finish off... With nice sourdough bread... It was filling to the point I only had a snack for supper time Will definitely be back... really delicious ..great stuff plenty of options...very hippie groovy type vibe inside Lots of options to eat outside or walk down to the park and eat there by the water I highly recommend if you're looking for a healthy delicious sandwich choice Can't pick a favourite dessert.. but will say they Ham.n Swiss was probably my favourite sammie Easy location to get to once you come over the bridge and lots of parking I tell you.. you will feel healthy eating here even the desserts lol

I had the breakfast sandwich with bacon and egg on chive bread with homemade tomato jam and my hubby had a freshly made omelette. We took two cinnamon buns to go! This is an absolute must stop - normally I am not even a breakfast fan The employees were lovely and the ambience was warm and welcoming!

Hi! WELL, what a pleasant surprise! A new Restaurant…read morethat sprung up! We arrived just as they closed, haha... but they let us in to chat and buy some of their DELICIOUS baking... Which is ALL made from scratch!! All their Breads are home made and NOT brought in, like at the Rose Bistro down the road.... The owner of this "Hungry Traveler" and their staff are warm and kind people! There is outside Patio Seating, TONS of Parking, and it's at: 10117 Highway 3... Phone: 902-518-2535 .... It's on the way to the Rose Bistro, [which we will NEVER patronize again]... Their menu is "All Day Breakfast"... and Sandwich type Brunch! They also cater trays... They have a "Build your OWN" Breakfast... The place is seemingly serene... [with none of the 'out of control' kids or over-crowding, like at that Rose Bistro down the road]... Their food offerings are cheaper and budget friendly....And they do not 'push you through' to get to the next customer, like the Bistro... The Brunch Sandwiches look amazing... and we intend to eat our way through their menu offerings!! The Sandwiches are decent sized... with HOME-MADE Bread!! We are going back for their Vietnamese Sandwich... It's traditional, right down to the marinated Chicken, Pickled Daikon & Carrot Slaw, fresh Cilantro etc.... The Curried Chicken looks great, and so does the Vegan Mashed Buffalo Chick Peas... It will be hard to decide what to eat after the Vietnamese Sandwich for sure!!! And the place is immaculate! The "Hungry Traveler" has our attention and our cash! Reading between the lines, you can probably tell we had just experienced "A Brunch from hell" at the Rose Bistro down the road... screaming/crying kids...Parents ignoring the bad behavior, some were running around... ...We grabbed our cutlery and water and went outside... We DIDN'T enjoy our meal which cost around $48.00 ... We had some nice times there, but are fed up with the WILDLIFE... this was a BOMB...and we will never return.
