To top the information provided, Dave brought out various sizes ranging from a pound to bigger than 2.5 pounds. He said he has seen an eight pounder... As for eating, they used to cook up the lobsters on site but that was shut down by complaints from Halifax and local seafood restaurants. They do ship by FedEx worldwide.

Our server was fast and efficient, and really went out of her way to make sure we were comfortable. I ordered the fish and substituted the chips with chowder.

Luckily the Inn where we are staying has a microwave that we can use to reheat the delicious Lobster & Shrimp Mac&Cheese that we ordered. It was very cheesy with just a touch of heat and a crispy panko topping. There seamed to be more lobster than shrimp- which is a good thing! Our very nice and fun server Kathy set us up with not only a takeaway box but some wooden utensils to use back at the Inn. The other over the top item were the Mussels. They were sautéed in butter, parsley, garlic and white wine and were very good. We managed to finish off the majority of these guys! The two other people in our party each had a Brie Grilled Cheese sandwich with bacon, red onion, jam and apple. Again in addition to being gigantic they were delicious. There are many more fantastic sounding items on the menu and it's a spot you should really check out.

Since this comes up before the more busy part of Peggy's cove there's a bit less traffic with easier parking and a chance at getting a table. The views are great as you get waterside dining, but the real star of the show is the lobster! And I recommend getting the reasonably priced special that comes with a beer. We were also able to switch out our side with the seafood chowder which came with even more lobster! What makes the lobster so good here is they serve female lobsters that are rich with delicious, flavorful roe when it's in season. I went here with my family and all of our lobsters were packed with the good stuff. Safe to say our bellies were stuffed full of delicious seafood before we went off to hike away the calories at Peggy's Cove. The staff were friendly and attentive and we had a great time enjoying lobsters seaside. Definitely make the stop to grab some lobster if you're in the area!

If you read their website former dairy farmers turned lobster restaurant cooks on weekends. The location did not have live music on Sunday. You get the funny bib if you want and the lobster meal for $44 with mussels and unlimited salad and rolls or $39 without the mussels but unlimited salad and rolls. The lobster was rather corny in taste, they were not over cooked and pretty nice. The mussels they tasted like the standard grocery store ones- apparently from farmed source. The waiters and waitresses frequently visited to check on us and empty out buckets. The meal also came with two dessert options and self serve coffee/tea. The experience- was nice but pricey and a bit touristy. It was sadden that the unlimited salad bar actually lacked green salad or spinach- which I was sort of craving. They generally had a selection of mayonnaise based salads- look at my photo. But some selection- but I didn't see anything fun like crab salad. The machine auto request for 15% tip, so if you're not a fan of being told what to tip be sure to manually adjust it. Washroom is located in the main floor and the lower floor. Water was self serve- which I thought was odd since the servers were visiting frequently already.

He had never had a lobster roll before, but said he wants one again after this! He got the Cajun, which the employee said was the best so it was the right choice. He said it wasn't super spicy, and he absolutely loved it. The line looks intimidating, but it doesn't take super long for the food to come out and it's worth it. We happened to be there on the last day of the season, so be sure to double check before going.

It was quite expensive for what it was. For two turkey sandwiches (with no side), a loaf of bread and two squares it was almost $50! The sandwiches were mediocre. The ingredients and bread were all fine - but that's it, just fine. Definitely not worth the price - it would have been $3-$4 cheaper to get a hamburger than it was a plain turkey sandwich. It was a hit and a miss - we'll keep going back for a sweet treat but in the nicest way possible you can get a much better and cheaper lunch elsewhere.

I'd tell you about my son's burger but he inhaled it so fast I couldn't get an accurate description other than it was "10/10, would eat again." And they had ice cream! Though we were full.
