“I had the stir fried noodles with chicken and can't wait to have it again, delicious.”

“I love your Pilsner! Can I get this beer in Ontario?”

“Thank you for a lovely evening celebrating the milestone birthdays of two dear friends! Atmosphere was very relaxed, our meals were incredible (especially considering our party of 4 included one celiac and one vegetarian) cocktails were yummy - overall simply a truly enjoyable evening. The surprise fizz and dessert with candle for our friends was very thoughtful!”

“A warm atmosphere, with delightful offerings of food/drinks, gifts, and conversation. *also, a very flattering bathroom mirror 😁 Thank you very much!”

“We've found this hidden gem by accident and we loved it! The Portuguese custard tarts were amazing, and the service (great vibe from the girl behind the counter) and the atmosphere make this coffee house a must-visit spot in Chester.”

“It's been a long time since I went to a Pub for a meal. Last time was 20 odd years ago, when Chicken wings were all the rage. The Foc'sle is way beyond that. The chef there really knows his business. I had a Seafood Risotto, my wife, Stuffed Haddock. Both plates were delicious, with enough to fill you up, but not so much that you wouldn't want desert. I enjoyed every bite. I will say that it's the first time I ever had an ice cold stout. It's not bad. Great place to eat. Very much recommended.”

“Such good pizza!!!!! Will be back”

“Was just into this subway this morning and the person working was AMAZING! They were so friendly and so helpful when deciding what sandwiches etc we wanted. They were so polite and had the best smile the whole time we were there ordering. Subway is subway is subway. The food is the same no matter which one you go to, it’s just the freshness, cleanliness and employees attitudes that differ. I will 100% be back to this subway SOLELY because of this employee! That said, the store was also super clean and the meat, veggies etc were all fresh and looked super good. Very much enjoyed the whole experience. They made my Wednesday morning that much better…and filled my tummy!”

“This was a first-time visit here. I had a slice of pepperoni pizza and it was delicious. What really caught my eye, though, were the coconut cream mini pies. They looked like works of art. I had two boxed up to take home and the hubby and I enjoyed them immensely that evening. They were so good!”

“After seeing the plates of deep fried clams and fish and chips on their Facebook page, we decided to drop in and give the Stretch Diner a go! The meal was simply delicious! We shared the clam and fish and chip combo…very generous serving, perfectly cooked with fantastic homemade coleslaw and tartar sauce. Friendly, helpful wait staff too! Definitely 10 out of 10, plus there is a Senior’s Discount!”

“How wonderful to find a local tea shop that carries my all time favourite tea! I start my day with a pot of Lapsang Suchong tea, which is not exactly a popular tea choice. Since moving to the Southshore 5 years ago I’ve been ordering my tea from Montreal, but when I noticed this lovely shop a few months ago I decided to pop in to see if they carried Lapsang and to my amazement they did! Nova Scotia can be chilly and damp and there is nothing that soothes my soul more than this wonderful Smokey tea! So thank you Lady Spillington for becoming my new supplier, your Lapsang Suchong is delicious!”

“This was such a great place to visit the pies all of them that we tried were amazing. I can’t wait till we are back and able to try it again. We also bought a birthday cake. It was really cute and nicely decorated and tasted great.”

“Always get a donair or pizza once or twice per month since the new owners took over and it has always been good. Definitely recommend.”

“Nothing makes you feel young again like sitting by the water and eating ice cream! There were lots of flavours to select from and the staff was friendly and very pleasant. We stopped here twice on our trip through the area.”

“I have celiac so finding a safe place to eat is challenging! Rebecca's has a dedicated fryer and the best gluten free fish and chips I've had in ages! Great service, great food, and a great atmosphere! Definitely recommend you stop and eat here!”

“The food is amazing and the service is top shelf. 5 stars all around. The Oyster is a benchmark.”

“Went with my wife on a Sunday evening and got a table right away. Service was super quick, deep fried pepperoni appetizer in under 5 minutes, and our mains arrived before we were done with it. The big breakfast and haddock burger were both delicious, like a home-cooked meal. Fries with dill sauce were a standout. Generous portions and great value!”

“Delicious fish and chips and the lobster roll was soooo good!!! Sat out on the deck on a beautiful Saturday. The service was quick and very attentive! Definitely recommend!!!”

“The chower was very runny and the prawns were tasteless. This is coming from our family from England. Quite a disappointment. Oh well, skip it if you can.”

“We enjoyed the best ever Samosas today…a beef and donair one…we also enjoyed the key lime and also the mango cheesecake…just divine…we are looking forward to the cinnamon roll with coffee tomorrow morning and lasagna with Ricotta for lunch…tomorrow. We will visit again Thank you Wanda & Paul Amherst NS”

“A little on the small side for dining in, unless the weather is nice and you can sit outside. The food and service are great!

Dietary restrictions: I'm gluten free and was easily accommodated with yummy options!”

“Stopped there for a quick coffee n snacks break on our way back to Halifax. Best location, next to Irving gas station and the St James Anglican Church. Team is very welcoming. Enough parking spots.
