If you want to try traditional NL foods, this place will give you the best selections. From fish n chips, fish n brewis, to jiggs dinner, they have them all. However, don’t expect fine dining quality.
The Big R has been a family-fave for decades. Fish & Chips, Cod Tongues & Chips or Fin & Feather w/ poutine to-go! Not posh but they've a sumptuous & plentiful approach to NL Classics!!! GOD LOVE 'EM! Bc we certainly do!
