One of the only restaurants in the area but boy what a hidden gem!…read more Food was 10/10. Server is Myrtles daughter and she's wonderful. Very friendly and has great food recommendations. Seafood chowder is a must. Fries are piping hot and fresh. Pasta salad was surprisingly good. Cod gratin was super rich and heavy. Cheesecake dessert was good and light. Overall 100% would recommend and wound come back.

This is just about as good of a small, local family-owned restaurant as you will find anywhere from…read moreCorner Brook out to Lark Harbour. We had a full day of hiking at Cape Blow Me Down and Cedar Cove, and we were ready to eat some good food. Lark Harbour is a tiny little bayside town with small colorful homes dotting the hillside overlooking this scenic setting. As soon as you walk in, you'll see a pool table and a couple of electronic casino games. There's a little bar, and several tables inside the dining room. Where you want to sit here, if the weather cooperates, is outside on the deck. This looks across the deep blue water across to the forested hills of Blow Me Down Provincial Park. What a view. At the same time we arrived, it seems like every local and tourist in the area got there at the same time. They were busy, and they just had one very nice woman waiting tables and (I assume) Mrs. Myrtle was back in the kitchen making all of the incredible food. We went into this place without having any expectations, figuring we'd get some decent fish and chips. The beer selection was mostly just domestic cans and bottles, so we opted for the cool blue Quidi Vidi Iceberg lager bottles. The outdoor deck was full when we arrived, but it opened up right about the time our meal arrived. We learned early on that you should try the seafood chowder at every single place you visit that offers it. On this stop, we almost forgot but I ordered it and we were treated with the #1 favorite during our entire trip. That chowder had huge chunks of lobster, crab, and I'm pretty sure a little salmon. Around the rim were a couple of fresh local steamed mussels. I'm not a big mussel fan, but those were fantastic. The chowder had the absolute best spice combination, and I am thinking they use a bit of paprika to give it this little orange gleam around the outside edge. We also split a fish and chips, and once again that turned out to be the best one we had in our whole trip. They have halibut fish and chips on the menu, but it was not in season on our visit. The staff here is working their tail off, and it may take a little longer if they are very busy. Just be patient, it'll pay off in the end! I can't recommend this place enough.

I'm so glad we did as the food was delicious and the service super friendly. We knew we were at the right place when we saw a lot of folks from our ship including a couple of the bands. We chose the 20 minute walk from the ship which was very nice, but there was also a free shuttle to downtown. Check out the nearby trail along the creek back to the ship for a scenic nature walk.
