Best seafood chowder we had in all of Canada from Montreal to StJohns Newfoundland. Oysters were so amazing too!

The cooked lobster we purchased was the best on our trip so far, and we have eaten a lot of lobster. They even got some fresh bread in that day that I purchased. The scallops were the only thing that I thought was over priced, everything else was very reasonable.

Very Disappointing. Called the restaurant 3 times on a Sunday evening and no answer. Google Maps…read moresaid they were open until 9pm. We arrived at 8:05pm, they had at least 3 empty tables and the host said they are closed for the night. Will never attempt to visit this place again based on the attitude and lack of customer service. Either answer your phone or change your hours from closing at 9pm to 8pm. Will advise others at our resort to avoid this place since we ended up having to drive to Kensington and end up eating a pizza and sub. Thanks for nothing.

It cost extra (~$60 IIRC) for a lobster lunch. We were each served a lobster and in the centre of the restaurant, they had trays of side dishes (self-serve). I don't remember all the side dishes but there were salads, soup, mussels. One con was that these didn't seem to get refilled as much as they should've throughout our lunch here (though we were told it would be constantly refilled). If you are part of a tour, my tip would be to fill your plate on the first round with whatever you think you'll eat. I usually take small portions and just get more after, but there was no more in this case. :') For the most part, the service was great. Our food was served almost immediately after being seated. The servers were very friendly. Food wasn't bad. I found my lobster to be just a teensy bit overcooked but the food is rarely ever perfect when you're part of a tour, because they have to prepare so much all at once.

This is a great casual spot to grab a lobster dinner near Cavendish/New Glasgow…read more We were there in August when it was great to sit outside and enjoy a seafood meal in the summer weather. We stopped in for lunch and we were early but the owner was very accommodating. We just couldn't resist having the lobster dinner. Came with mussels and a salad to start. The lobster came with corn on the cob and garlic bread. Right off the highway and lots of parking.

The place was kind of depressing it was empty and staff were on their phones the whole time. Multiple people came in and left because of the ridiculous prices.

Our family has to navigate life with a severe nut allergy, so we were impressed when the staff took the time to discuss with us exactly which menu items were made in-house and safe. It's a mom and pop operation, they talked about how hard it was to find consistency and quality from the suppliers during -and after- the pandemic. We were able to find several food options for my son, and for him we ordered fried fish with a side of poutine. He was in heaven. Well, we all were, actually, because the seafood was delish. We even returned later for soft serve ice cream because they guaranteed it was nut-free. My kid has only had ice cream from a commercial restaurant maybe 2 or 3 times in his life, so it was a very rare and welcome treat. We definitely recommend Captain Scott's - both for their food and also for their family's friendliness and service. We love this place. Thank you!
