    Haddock bites were excellent
    Heather S.

    We were recommended this place by friends and it was very good. The food is excellent for the most part. The fish was some of the best we had on our east coast trip. The poutine was fresh and plentiful. The portions are a very good size so go hungry or be prepared to share. The burgers were great and the salmon burger was a particular standout with our group. It's very busy and parking can be tricky but you can always park along the side of the road like most locals were doing. The lobster roll was our only disappointment. It was just a bit thin on meat and paled in comparison to the one we had in alma for the price (hence the four not five stars). Next time we go back we will also try the clams and sc

    Convenient location on the road to St Andrews. About a 5 minute drive away. This is a drive up fish & chip takeout place. It has fish, clams, burgers, homemade fries, milk shakes, and hard ice cream. Even on a Monday afternoon in early June, they were steady, but we didn't have to wait long. They take your order, give you a number, then call out your number with a microphone. I had a one piece fish & chips. The fish was large and there were lots of fries, a lemon wedge, cole slaw, and tartar sauce. The fish batter was crispy & golden, the fish hot & moist. It was a little greasier than I like, but not enough to keep me from eating all of it. The fries were great. My husband & I also split an onion rings. We didn't like these so much. We like onion rings with fish batter, whereas these had something more akin to fried chicken coating. We didn't put much of a dent in those. There's a good amount of parking space, a grassy area with sturdy picnic tables, and a playground.

    Had heard it was as a great place to eat. The fried onions were awesome but the lobster roll was terrible. The worst I have ever had.

Our waitress was so kind and helped out with someone who had a food allergy. We sat on the patio and it was nice and the road they are on isn't busy so it felt like we were tucked back a little! I would recommend! I got the sausage platter and they had pickled rhubarb and it was to die for!

    Excellent find. Fantastic meal. Heck of a good time…read more Lots of beers and booze to choose from nestled in all warm and cozy in the eclectic environment of Bar Harbor, ME. I had the burger special which was fucking fantastic! I was getting pretty tired of seafood at this point and it was the most refreshing change of pace. It was one of those just in time food experiences. C went for the crab cakes. What a gorgeous version of crab cakes they were! Fancy pants presentation and all things considered some of the best crab cakes we had on our trip. Bartender was really friendly and was super proud of their whiskey/bourbon collection. He did point out a few bottles to us that were really quite special and hard to come across. They had some Penelope variants that were unseen to me. I would come back in a heartbeat. If I lived nearby, I would be here all of the time. There were a ton of interesting menu items I would like to try. '26 - 26

    You can't go to Digby and not get a feed of scallops, and what better place than an actual seafood…read moremarket? When my wife and I showed up on a Saturday afternoon, I was in luck because the scallops and fish combo was one of the daily specials, clocking in at just $21! My other half, not being a big seafood person, opted for a cheeseburger. Having arrived well after the main lunch crowd, we had our food in quick order and ate indoors, taking a break in their AC. My plate of brown, deep-fried goodness wasn't exactly a poster child for the Canada Food Guide, but it sure was good! The scallops had a light dusting of breading before hitting the fryer, and they were a perfect doneness - not too soft, and not at all rubbery. Being minimally adorned as they were, the sweetness of the scallops took its rightful spot at centre stage. The fish portion of the plate was comprised of three small filets of haddock, with a light breading on the exterior. I do prefer a crisp, airy beer batter, but the quality of the fish stole the show, as it flaked easily in solid chunks, but wasn't mushy or shredding to tiny bits. It was one of those times where the fish was so good that I only used the tartar sauce for my fries. Said fries were the standard, from-frozen fries that I think of as "diner fries", but they were good and crisp on the outside, with fluffy interiors, so they were about as good as they can be. On the upside, the fries acted as a delivery mechanism for one of the best tartar sauces I've ever had! Heavy on the minced pickle chunks, the tartar sauce had a sweetness to it that reminded me of mustard pickles (in the best possible way). When a place does a simple thing like this so well, it really make all the others that just do packets of Kraft look even worse. Although far from being the star of the show, my wife's cheeseburger was a solid, diner-style burger. Carla's was just what I was looking for while in Digby - down home style seafood that's well-executed without pretension.

    The service was good. The ambience was good. The restaurant was pretty full but had a few tables…read moreavailable. I tried the apricots chicken rapure- she said it was a French dish, basically mashed potatoes around a few chucks of chicken and then deep fried. I wasn't impressed. My husband got the wings.

I was there Saturday and had the special "fish bits platter" and my son had the chicken nuggets. The food came very fast, and was great. Unfortunately with his meal it only came with 4 nuggets he didn't complain so they must of been good. The waitress was friendly and when the large group beside us still wasn't ready took our order first so there was less weight for food. The building is very divided inside and above is an apartment that was hosting a kid's birthday that day so there was some noise coming from above be that's small town dinning.
