    Jr. Fried clams
    Sophia H.

    Great service (for what they offer) and very relaxed place but the lobster roll was lacking much for flavor. Small roll on its own for $19.99, with fries for $$24.99. We also have the jr fried clams to give that a try for $16.99 (without fries). These were pretty good but a bit heavy in breading for us. All comes with a little tub of coleslaw. Everything packed to go as well. Would have appreciated a water station too since it's an order and pick up style place with no servers. Overall it was good and nice service (for what they do/ this style) but the lack of flavor and wasteful serving dishes etc brought my score down.

    We came here after going to the Parlee beach, we ordered the hotdog for the kids and calm strips for ourselves. Hotdog is just hotdog can't complain, clam strips are soooooo good, it's very fresh and generous portion, highly recommend that! The best I have so far, will definitely come back.

    It was okay. It seemed a little cheap in how you had to go up to order and then you are squinting at the menu when the staff is irritated when you don't know right away what you want and there are so many people standing behind you. I ordered the Captain's plate and I was highly disappointed. The batter was really bland and gross and the same batter was used for everything. I had to peel it off to eat the seafood. My husband said that that lobster roll was okay based on everywhere else that we ate at. But nothing special. My kiddo liked her lobster club. I wouldn't go back here for the price or the quality. To be honest, the first three restaurants that we wanted to go to were already closed. Go somewhere else first

    Highly recommend! A cute little restaurant right over the bridge on Main Street. We stopped in because a fellow yelper said the lobster rolls were good. Wow - they were not kidding. The BEST lobster roll I have ever enjoyed. Hands down. And, I've had them in from Vancouver to Boston to Florida. **UPDATE: I've even tried lobster rolls in PEI. This is still the best!! And, a steal at $17CAD The roll is about the size of a large hot dog bun but it was stuffed with very lightly mayo'ed and extremely tender lobster. Killer, really. The French fries were quite good and the poutine was delicious. So glad I stopped by to let a rainstorm blow over before continuing to Moncton.

    Stopped by this casual seafood dinner tonight and very glad we did. Ordered the lobster plate. This came with 2 small (3/4lbish) lobsters of excellent quality. The side of a caser salad was "ok" with a bit too much dressing. Make sure to get this plate with garlic butter for dipping! Also ordered the scallops and fried clams. We asked for the scallops to be pan fried. This dish came with a side of fries. There was a huge amount of clams and about 10 or so scallops. Again excellent quality and not at all greasy. The food took no time to be prepared and we picked up from the counter and sat at a nearby table. There are 2 dining rooms and a patio out front with plenty of seating but a lot of people also take away. If I lived in the area this would definitely become a regular place to dine.

    One lobster meal with sweet potato fries, yum yum!

    Definitely the best lobster we had in all of the Maritimes provinces. We got 2 lobster meals, one with French fries and 1 with sweet protagonists fries. I liked the sweet potato one better. And the lobsters! Omg, so tender and yummy! I can't really describe it well, but it's the best lobster! They were conveniently split in half, which made eating them so much easier. And they also came with servings of garlic butter, 100% better than just regular butter. Service was decent. The waitress did greet us with a smile, which felt very welcoming.

    Large order of clams and fries and coleslaw.

    We live in Shediac year round and have a few favorite places which operate seasonally- Captain Dans for the big as a baby's head lobster roll, Golden fry for their lobster roll platter, and Lobster Deck for the Clams and Chowder. Lobster Deck has generous portions, excellent fries and lovely crispy battered clams. The chowder is bursting with seafood and the the broth is not clunky or heavy like so many chowders. We love biking here for lunch in normal times, but are very grateful for the takeout option during Covid 19 restrictions. Great place, friendly people and reasonable prices considering the portion sizes. Go support this local gem- you won't regret it.

    So good. this was a last minute stop during our road trip and so glad we did!! Lobster roll was delicious, not too much Mayo which I appreciate! Also got the lobster club which is a contender ! Upsized the fries to poutine and all for $42. Expensive but damn everything was finger licking good!!! Lots of seating indoors and outdoors. Unfortunately no dogs allowed so we grabbed our food for take out.

    Succulent lobster roll and delicious scallops!
    Karen S.

    We had the best lobster rolls in our Maritime trip at this place. Succulent chunks of lobster seasoned just right on buttery bread. So good! The scallop platter was amazing as well. A very good amount of scallops lightly breaded and deep fried. They were done perfectly so that the subtle taste of scallop was not overpowered by the breading and were served over a mountain of fries. The chowder was OK and I'd provably skip it next time. The service was friendly and super quick.

    I enjoyed this place. I got the shrimp and fried plate. Both were well done. They also had a few beer on tap. On a summer day the outside seating place is nice, not to hot with a nice cool ocean breeze.

    Amazing taste of food at this place and humungous servings! One plate of poutine easily feeds two! They claim to be a takeaway but there is ample seating inside and a covered patio! If you go to To Shediac - the Lobster capital of the world - eat here!

    Great food and local beers on tap. Order at the walk up counter, find a seat on the deck and wait for your order to be called. A great meal!

    Super chill with great sea food. Order at the walk up counter, take a seat on the deck and pick up when your order is called. Excellent local beers on tap-- Pumphouse.

    Clams were not cooked all the way. Shrimp just literally had no taste to it. Definitely would recommend finding somewhere else to eat ‍

    I did a road trip that took me along the coast from Shediac to Provincetown, MA and the lobster roll here was the best.

    Absolutely the Worst Dining Experience - Poorly Managed and Not Worth the Wait…read more Avoid this place during and after supper time, especially on busy weekends. We arrived at Captain Dan's at 7:28 PM on a hot summer Saturday (July 12,2025) during a local festival. As expected, the place was packed -- a lineup of about 20 people just to get seated on the second floor. We asked if the beer garden served meals and were told yes, so we got a table and waited... and waited... and waited. One waitress kept walking by with drinks, bills, payment machines -- but never once stopped at our table. I tried waving my menu to catch her attention. After 30 minutes, my wife finally got up to speak to her directly, and only then did she come take our order. I asked for the seafood chowder, and my wife ordered the overpriced lobster roll with fries. We received our glass of water fairly quickly -- but that was it. Around 8:00 PM, they put up a sign saying the second floor was closed, but no one warned us about what was coming. We then waited ANOTHER full hour -- until around 9:00 PM -- when a different waiter came to inform me that they had run out of seafood chowder. He asked if I wanted to order something else, but at that point, why bother? It was already late, and I had no intention of sitting around another 30-60 minutes for greasy bar food. They completely wasted our evening. This disaster falls entirely on poor management. It was the middle of July -- a hot Saturday night during festival season -- and yet the place was drastically understaffed. For the beer garden alone, there were about 75 patrons, with only four waiters to serve drinks, take orders, deliver food, and manage the entire first floor inside as well. That's easily another 40-50 people. It was obvious the team was overwhelmed. Rather than plan ahead or manage the chaos, they kept letting people in and seating them on the second floor -- even though the staff and kitchen clearly couldn't keep up. There was no mention of wait times, no communication, and no accountability. If you can't serve your customers, you have to close areas down earlier, not after everyone is already frustrated and hungry. To top it off, the lobster roll was also wrong -- butter only, even though my wife ordered the one with mayonnaise. We've been eating here 3-4 times a season for years. The only time I'd ever consider returning is at lunchtime, when the crowd is smaller -- because it seems like they have the exact same staffing levels at noon as they do on a busy Saturday night. That's just greedy, short-sighted management. Avoid this place unless you enjoy wasting two hours for subpar food and no service.

    Bad service, can't hardly get a drink. Have to wave down a waitress to get any attention. Good fish…read morebut bad chips. Staff can be either good at the upper bar or very rude and bad at the lower bar. Not worth your time. But they are one of only two restaurant/bars on the Shediac Wharf so perhaps they don't care about customer satisfaction. Spend your money at Sandbar or somewhere else.
