So a gal pal took me here for lunch for my birthday... And the pictures do speak for themselves…read more.. At first we thought its a bit pricey for a sandwich but it was a special treat after all Very busy location but you can eat outside which was lovely And it was great to be in the company of a very beautiful person who treated me for lunch Highly recommend the BLT or the ham and swiss sandwich ..yes you can tell the difference of a quality sandwich... And we had Black Bean Brownie and a date square just to finish off... With nice sourdough bread... It was filling to the point I only had a snack for supper time Will definitely be back... really delicious ..great stuff plenty of options...very hippie groovy type vibe inside Lots of options to eat outside or walk down to the park and eat there by the water I highly recommend if you're looking for a healthy delicious sandwich choice Can't pick a favourite dessert.. but will say they Ham.n Swiss was probably my favourite sammie Easy location to get to once you come over the bridge and lots of parking I tell you.. you will feel healthy eating here even the desserts lol

Seems like a space that would transition to a local watering hole later that evening. A great menu, lots of classics and some gluten free options. The seafood chowder was really good, the haddock was also very good, would have like some fries but no gf frier. The washrooms weren't spotless, more pub style than restaurant. Definitely a great spot to have a bite and a drink.

A great spot - my other food favourite in Bridgewater, N.S…read more I take photographs for a living and I once lived near here (Bridgewater) but now I am often on the other side of the country. But I still like great tasting food and yet my lunch still can't cost me the same as a car payment. So when I'm in my little home town and I'm after some interesting food that is prepared well and by folks who know how to please a big hungry guy. This is a go to for me. In a pub I want the following and in this order / cold beer not necessarily alcoholic , good tasting food choices that tastes like the proprietor would eat there. He does ! I'm 6 feet 4" I'm after well prepared salads and I want crisp fresh fixings with choices of dressings and various protein things I can leave in or out - onions not my favourite - but hey that's me. These guys are pros - totally. The guy who owns that place knows his craft - well ! He's focused on the job - he hires good people with the same philosophy - I like this guys attitude. Never once been offered sub standard grub. Nope these guys are smart and proud of what the cook has just made only seconds before the front end staff rushed it to my table. I often have the specials - a rescent trip 5000 kms back to Bridgewater gave me an opportunity to try their fish special and then another time the pulled pork. Each with an interesting crisp side salad. Cold .5 beer - so I can still focus when I'm done. So 10/10 ? Absolutely delicious - and yet very reasonably priced. My two prime YET not only concern's. I like focused staff, smart conversation and professional pride in one's job. That's this place. The River Pub - North side of King St. near the new bridge east of Victoria Rd I've not found a better Pub in town. Now remember your thirsty and hungry - these guys can solve that.

We called ahead and they made room for our larger group of 6, but the tables around us were constantly full. Loved the nautical decor all around. We did get a baby high chair but I don't think I noticed a baby change table in the bathroom. Service was good, food took awhile but as mentioned above it was super busy here. For the food we ordered up an appetizer of calamari. Crispy and battered perfectly! The kids loved the batter and even ate quite a bit of the squid. Kids grilled cheese with fries- they loved it and were happy. Pan seared scallops- Nova Scotia's finest, pan seared in lemon butter, served with vegetables, potato or rice pilaf, fresh baked roll and coleslaw. I ordered the rice and it was so nice to have an option other than French fries. The rice and vegetables were delightful and the kids actually liked them quite a bit as well. The scallops were so tender and juicy and had a great portion. Lobster linguine- Sweet Atlantic lobster sautéed with fresh mushrooms, tossed in our signature lobster cream sauce and linguine pasta and served with garlic toast. So so rich and absolutely amazing flavor! This dish was so so good! Seafood combo: Fish and scallops Famous fish & chips battered or cracker crumbled, roll, coleslaw & tartar sauce. They had a variety of these combos you could order but we were feeling scallops. Batter on them was different than on the calamari. Still tasty and the scallops looked huge inside.

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.

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!
