We ordered a small vanilla and a small chocolate cone, both dipped in chocolate. It came to over $5 which did surprise us (although I could have read the menu and I wouldn't have been too surprised ;)). The ice cream and chocolate were both delicious.

Came across this establishment on Saturday as we were driving between Glace Bay and New Waterford. I saw the sign advertising Hires Root Beer and couldn't resist pulling in to see if they actually had any. They don't. (Hires Root Beer is only sold in limited areas in the US, and is in competition with A&W Root Beer which comes from the same bottling plant...sad really) However, I went with a root beer float anyway (Dad's root beer, if I recall) and sat out on one of the park benches overlooking the water, enjoying the view.

The food here is decent - chicken wings were flavourful and the chicken supreme was juicy. Blueberries complemented the salmon well. Service however was horrible. First, they didn't really have proper seating for 5, so my group was a little cramped on a table designed for 4. Our server was usually nowhere to be found. At the end of the meal she told us she's new and still learning the ropes. While that's excusable, the service level from all the other staff was not. We've flagged down at least 2 other staff looking for our server, and while they just acknowledge and say "your server will be right with you", they DID NOT ACTUALLY GO GET HER. That's simply unacceptable.. Given the poor service I would not recommend this restaurant if you're looking for a relaxing dining experience.
