    Finally got to try some Acadian food and it was delicious! The staff was helpful and friendly. Would definitely return.

    Absolutely the Worst Dining Experience - Poorly Managed and Not Worth the Wait…read more Avoid this place during and after supper time, especially on busy weekends. We arrived at Captain Dan's at 7:28 PM on a hot summer Saturday (July 12,2025) during a local festival. As expected, the place was packed -- a lineup of about 20 people just to get seated on the second floor. We asked if the beer garden served meals and were told yes, so we got a table and waited... and waited... and waited. One waitress kept walking by with drinks, bills, payment machines -- but never once stopped at our table. I tried waving my menu to catch her attention. After 30 minutes, my wife finally got up to speak to her directly, and only then did she come take our order. I asked for the seafood chowder, and my wife ordered the overpriced lobster roll with fries. We received our glass of water fairly quickly -- but that was it. Around 8:00 PM, they put up a sign saying the second floor was closed, but no one warned us about what was coming. We then waited ANOTHER full hour -- until around 9:00 PM -- when a different waiter came to inform me that they had run out of seafood chowder. He asked if I wanted to order something else, but at that point, why bother? It was already late, and I had no intention of sitting around another 30-60 minutes for greasy bar food. They completely wasted our evening. This disaster falls entirely on poor management. It was the middle of July -- a hot Saturday night during festival season -- and yet the place was drastically understaffed. For the beer garden alone, there were about 75 patrons, with only four waiters to serve drinks, take orders, deliver food, and manage the entire first floor inside as well. That's easily another 40-50 people. It was obvious the team was overwhelmed. Rather than plan ahead or manage the chaos, they kept letting people in and seating them on the second floor -- even though the staff and kitchen clearly couldn't keep up. There was no mention of wait times, no communication, and no accountability. If you can't serve your customers, you have to close areas down earlier, not after everyone is already frustrated and hungry. To top it off, the lobster roll was also wrong -- butter only, even though my wife ordered the one with mayonnaise. We've been eating here 3-4 times a season for years. The only time I'd ever consider returning is at lunchtime, when the crowd is smaller -- because it seems like they have the exact same staffing levels at noon as they do on a busy Saturday night. That's just greedy, short-sighted management. Avoid this place unless you enjoy wasting two hours for subpar food and no service.

    Bad service, can't hardly get a drink. Have to wave down a waitress to get any attention. Good fish…read morebut bad chips. Staff can be either good at the upper bar or very rude and bad at the lower bar. Not worth your time. But they are one of only two restaurant/bars on the Shediac Wharf so perhaps they don't care about customer satisfaction. Spend your money at Sandbar or somewhere else.
