Counter service only but the attendent was very friendly. Broad menu including seafood , salads, sushi and rice bowls. I ordered and paid for a one piece fish and chips but received two reasonable sized pieces. Even with one piece prices are reasonable. The fish was very good, light batter and fresh tasting. The fry order was generous and perfectly seasoned. The order came with an obligatory tub of slaw and tartar, both pretty good. They also sell fresh and frozen seafood and baked items. Great to have this venue in the neighbourhood.

Fish was wonderful. Loved the crispy batter. Plenty of fish on a 1 piece. Fries are nothing…read morespecial.

Absolutely love the fact that you can get quality baking and then head down the stairs to check out the artist co-op and bookstore without going outside. Amazing patio/wharf out back for summer months and a must visit for a cool artist vibe that is much less busy than the touristy Lunenburg area.

My husband and I stopped in this bakery after lunch because, well, it's a bakery! Lol. Staff were…read moresuper nice and greeted us right away. I was just looking around when they introduced me to their Chai Cookies. I love Chai, so I had to get one. They were $2.30 each (taxes in) and quite large. They also introduced me to their soft baked pretzels, which looked really good and were also quite large ($3 each), but I decided to pass, maybe next time. I was looking at their chocolate chip cookies and I found it really cute that the girl said "I promise you that no one took a bite out of these, they are just broken like that." They did in fact look like someone took small nibbles around the edges, haha. I have a soft spot in my heart for bakeries that go ahead and sell imperfectly shaped or less aesthetically pleasing goods. This is probably because my own baking is not much to look at, but it is delicious - my own opinion, but also the opinion of others who have tasted my baking, lol. Anyway, they are relatively new, as they weren't there when we were last in Liverpool a few years ago. They sell sauces, pastas, water bottles, and other items in addition to baked goods. They also have sandwiches.

Girly Girl that I am I was immediately pulled in by the pink signage and the call of beauty products. Once I got inside I was amazed by all the wonderful stuff!! Soaps that look like slices of cake and cupcakes, unique scents of whipped body butters, and bath scrubs that are a consistency I have yet to see. They are firmer and don't make a mess when you use them at all. Now for the service and packaging! The owner is lovely and took the time to wrap all of my treasures in cupcake holders with gumballs and ribbon. It was such a nice touch to finish off the bakery theme that runs throughout the whole store. I highly recommend stopping in here. The owner tells me a Halifax store is coming soon just off Spring Garden. I can' wait!!

I had the banana nut muffin and is was truly the best banana nut muffin I've ever had! It had a mix of nuts, seeds, a smattering of mini chocolate chips and a drizzle of icing. Add a light shake of sea salt, and you have found my ideal breakfast treat. My husband had the apple cinnamon crumble muffin. We made an audible "mmmm" on his first bite. Our Americano and latte were exactly as we hoped. If you have time to linger, go upstairs and sit on one large leather couches. We met some native Nova Scotians and never felt rushed. And if we were made of money I would have bought one of the beautiful hand-dyed silk scarves on sale one the first floor. Thank goodness we are here in Mahone Bay for a while... we shall return!
