We were then greeted by multiple flies. The ambiance was terrible, house flies surrounded us when we entered and they were all over the food. We were swapping flies the entire time trying to make the most out of our meal. We waited 1.5 hours for a drink and an appetizer. The calamari was chewy, cold and tasted like table salt. 2 hours later we received our meal. My wrap was cold. We paid about 160 dollars to dine in and it wasn't worth a fraction of the price. On our way out we heard a server ask a guest if they would take the steak they wanted ordered well done when they asked for medium. I was in shock. I will not be back.

This place is located on the main stretch of the vert touristy and BUSY stretch in Tatamagouche. It's small - about a dozen tables - so expect to wait if you're coming during the obvious hours (lunch/supper). The three of us got the last table for 4 but it was squishy because the place was packed! Service is friendly and quick! We honestly came specifically for the chowder and didn't try anything else because we all planned a visit to the chocolate shop, the brewery and the winery. The soup was a really good sized portion for $14 and it was creamy - something that's often lacking when you order chowder. It comes with two pieces of baguette which is great to dip into the chowder. The only complaint would be is that the chowder really lacks the staples as advertised. We did find LOTS of shrimp in each bowl, but one of us got one rubbery scallop in our bowl where the other two had none. The fish was also very difficult to catch as it seemed very little made it into the bowls. Despite it being very busy, the service was prompt and the food came out fairly quickly. There was an event going on at the winery up the highway so it is possible the menu was rushed that day. Overall, for the price, I really don't have too much to complain about but it would be nice to find more fish in the chowder. Lots of street parking available and they have an extensive menu. Google/Facebook say closed Sundays, but call ahead because we came on a Sunday in the middle of November and they were definitely open. Worth a shot and the rest of the menu looked like it had some great options.

The waiting time after the order is about 40 to 45 minutes. there are two people next to us, ordered after us got their food first, I noticed they ordered fish chowders as well. It's a chowder in a medium size blue colour bowl. we got our other food first then after a while we got the chowder in a salad bowl, same bowl as our Caesar salad. It's a triangle shaped bowl. I thought they may run out of regular chowder bowl so I didn't say anything, then later on I noticed other customers got their chowder in a regular chowder bowl, with bread and butter. I didn't get butter. I didn't say anything because I don't want to my kids feel because we are only Asian people there so they gave us a salad bowl for a soup dish, maybe they think we can't tell the difference. Honestly I don't think my kids and husband even notice that. Back to food, the chowder is ok, not Good enough to name the restaurant based on this dish. Lack of flavour and fish and shrimp are tough, lots of potatoes not much of fish. I found one small scallops and one shrimp in the bowl. I don't think there is lobster meat in there. Maybe they think we are tourists but we go to Tatamagouche quite often because we have our camper near by about 10 minutes drive away. Probably won't be back, if we do, next time I got a special bowl or plate I will sure to ask Why.

She has a menu but is always willing to work "off" menu. She was more than happy to accommodate my daughter's 10 year old desires. The breakfasts are hearty and filling. I typically don't love home fries but Mary's were great. She didn't overload the plate with them like many other restaurants.Perfect proportions which makes a great change from excessive, wasteful portions so many places now offer. Quality over quantity was my experience here. There are games for rainy days and Mary doesn't mind some lounging. It is clear Mary works hard and loves satisfying her customers. Her wildflower garden, commitment to organic products that encourage ethical choices around insects (bees, for example) are some extra bonuses. Highly recommended. When we returned back to the B & B after a terrible dinner, she brought us fresh vegetables, humus, guacamole and drinks. So kind!

What an amazing experience at this restaurant from the view to the service to the food. Wow!…read more Small but great list of wine, cocktails and beer. I ordered the 1.5 lb sous vide lobster pea risotto with a side of scallops garnished with fresh shaved truffles. The scallops were fresh and so delicious, but paled in comparison to that risotto. The risotto is one of the best things that I have ever eaten - lemony, not too creamy, crunchy, tender. My husband really enjoyed the halibut. As for the view, we had an 830 reservation and the sun was setting over 830-915 and it was spectacular. Looking out over the water later in the meal, we saw a head bobbing in the water, perhaps one of the seals or a small whale. Then the sky lit up way over in the distance by PEI, bits of lightning, pink, white. At the end of the meal the chef came out and we were so pleased to compliment her directly. This is a must repeat, splurge meal.

It makes for a nice pitstop if you are driving to/from New Brunswick. They make their own maple syrup and specialize in all things maple. If you don't like pancakes, this probably isn't the place for you. Everything on the menu is made with maple. If you have the time, there is a nice mountain trail just out the front door that apparently a lot of folks hike before eating. We couldn't fit it in but I bet it would have made the experience even better. My pancakes with maple roasted pecans were good, not mind blowing, but good. My coffee with maple whipped cream was good but I typically take it black and wasn't a fan of all the sweetness. They do feature some non-pancake items like maple baked Mac n' cheese that was apparently recently on the Food Network. Also, some kind of French toast. But we all went for the pancakes. Service on our visit was not super fast but everyone was very nice and the place was very busy. They have a store with syrup, their own maple porter, and other wares. Overall we enjoyed our visit to this picturesque spot.

Food was ok although the salmon had a strong taste that neither of us especially cared for. The main reason for my 2 star review was our server. She was an older, grey haired woman who seemed annoyed with us from the moment she came over. She never came back to see if we liked our food or wanted anything else. We even had to ask her to clear away the dishes of the previous people who had sat at our table. At the same time, we watched the other servers checking back with their tables. Finally, when our server brought out our identical meals, they were very different. One plate had noticeably more sauce, potatoes, and grapes. If the same dish is going to 2 people at the same table, the plates should both have pretty much the same amount of food
