I was having a work meeting, so was able to book in advance and the table was ready for when I arrived. Our table had a number of plates of excellent pub food and appetizers, from the cauliflower bites to the fish tacos, to the tasty salads. I enjoyed the burnt ends burger. The spice was great with the jalapeños, and the cheese and bbq sauce made for a wonderful pairing. To top it off, the thick gravy that stuck to the crisp fries just warms you up on a cold day. Definitely coming back here again. The experience lived up to the reviews I had read about it!

If I could give this place zero stars, I would. Absolutely horrible experience…read more We arrived around 10:30 am on a Wednesday. There was no one else in the restaurant. The two ladies working seemed like they didn't want to be there. They acted like we weren't customers and they didn't need to serve us. They acted like we were some sort of burden to them. We were seated and then they never came back. We were seated in the bar area and they were standing at the bar chatting so loudly we could hear their entire conversation about their lives and how miserable they were. We had to ask for coffee. It took forever to come. We had to tell them we were ready to order because it seemed like they didn't want to take our order. I ordered the chicken and waffle. It was disgusting. Zero flavor. I don't even know how that is possible. I added salt and it still was tasteless. My husband ordered the coconut French toast. He liked it. But it looked like it was on very thin sandwich bread. My mom ordered the breakfast sandwich. It had no flavor and it was cold. The potatoes were cold and dry. Would absolutely never come back here and would not recommend to anyone.

This ended up being where we found the BEST beer suited to our tastes ... Trailway Seeing Citra (6% hazy NEIPA - best beer DH had all cruise anywhere) and Loyalist City Lupulus Interruptus (8.2% tasty DIPA - which I enjoyed immensely). They also had a $25 cruise special for a 45 minute axe throwing session that included a 20 oz. British pint of any beer on tap. What could be wrong with that?!?! We enjoyed it all so much that we ended up staying at this place for over 4 hours drinking the awesome beer (but they do also serve wine and other mixed drinks) ... and for an additional 1.5 hour session of axe throwing. We left Saint John vowing to try axe throwing when we get home ... but just hope there's also good beer there as well!

We've been trying many a restaurant as we drive around these parts in the maritimes this past week…read more And this place has really stood out. Very good food - we had the scallops platter - extremely tasty with the apple butter and the accompanying Waldorf salad was also very good. Also had the special Thai curry - tasted like the curry paste was home made with lots of basil & had tons of seafood in it. Sticky toffee pudding for dessert was also amazing with homemade ice cream. The service was prompt, personable, and knowledgeable - particularly about the intricacies of scallop fishing. Really, the food came out super-fast - we were surprised when it arrived. Would definitely recommend.

We came here to enjoy some scallops. The scallops were supposedly sautéed in apple butter, but we…read morecould hardly taste the butter. Otherwise the scallops were cooked to perfection. The Waldorf salad was refreshing. We order the garlic mash as our side; however, I wish there was more garlic flavour in the mash. If they added roasted garlic in the mash, it would have tasted a lot better. Service was a bit slow, but they were very friendly. The restaurant had a live band performing when we arrived. It was a little loud inside so we decided to sit outside on their porch. Dog friendly as they allowed pets on the porch.

Due to a music festival in the city (506) the place was empty, we got in between lunch and dinner (4:30pm). Our server Russel was super nice but you could tell they weren't really ready in the kitchen for a party of 5. We set down at 4:25 and ordered really fast because we were starving, food came out only at 5:00pm which was annoying. The food was really good, very pub like so if you're into greasy food it's great, we were just really hungry and that usually won't be our go to food but we didn't want fast food.
