“Beautiful view, great food, friendly service in an updated venue. Our party enjoyed everything we ordered: oysters, seared tuna, Caesar salad, fish and chips, scallop risotto and the flank steak. The fish was cooked perfectly. Will come again!”

“Had a long vehicle to park in this adjoining gas bar Petrocan, which was fairly busy and not overl¹y large amount of parking. Upon entering the store I determinedl that the staff were really keen to be there. Employer must be good to the faithful staff because they were all in turn gave me positive individual attention. The food is just slightly above standard of Robin's donuts as they serve other items from the kitchen with confidence..Parking: The community appears to support this service station and coffee bar so they are doing well and yes parking doesn't take too long to find a spot.”

“Don’t get me wrong, the food at Oh My Cod was exceptional. But what really made the experience was the superior service that I received from all staff. Both my host and waiter were wonderful, friendly, talkative, and made me feel right at home. The service was fast - I received my meal within 10 minutes -, but I did not feel rushed at any point. My waiter even went as far as walking me back to my car with an umbrella during a torential downpour. I cannot overstate how great of an experience I had.”

“Cute coffee place. I really enjoyed the atmosphere and the space itself. Staff is very attentive. We visited it during the holidays, it was very busy. Our coffees were not particularly tasty, I chose a tea (London fog) the second time, it was much better. We also tried two different scones, we didn’t like them too much, it was either too sweet or too dry. The vegan chocolate and orange cookies were amazing. I also loved the fact that they sell local products.”

“Love, love love the cinnamon swirls and croissants. Arrived there tonight at 5:01 and they graciously let me in to get some, even though they were closing/closed. Picky up a delicious frozen squash soup as well, highly recommend!!”

“We had our first experience of the Kiwi Cafe and I have nothing but good things to say about it. We sat on the pleasant deck and received great service and excellent food. Five stars in my estimation.”

“Amazing service and delicious food with vegan options for every course. And our server did everything she could to accommodate us when there had been a reservation error.”

“The Inn was a wonderful respite situated in the center of an idyllic town. If you have a chance to stay we highly recommend! Dean, the owner, was amazing and worked hard to make guests feel comfortable. The restaurant atmosphere enhanced the vacation feel while serving delicious food!”

“We visited Betty's on a Thursday during their Celeigh night. The atmosphere was lively, and they had three course specials. We each had salad to start and chocolate mousse for dessert. I had the bruschetta pizza and my husband the white. Both were delicious! Can't day enough about our waitress - she was awesome! Highly recommend this spot.”

“Pretty eclectic selection of creative brews. Nice to have a flight and try a variety of them. Brought our own snacks since nothing else was open during our visit. Good thing this was early in our trip - we bought quite a few beers that we consumed - only a couple of cans made it home!”

“Love coming here before the Sensea spa. The tuna melt was the best I’ve ever had. The desserts alllllll looked amazing and the brownie and lemon square were crazy good. Someone in the kitchen seriously knows what they are doing.My only feed back would be on atmosphere, and that it was nicer when there were a couple couches in front of the fireplace to sit and be cozy.”

“Don't let the atmosphere fool you, the pizza was one of the best, the sauce had alot of flavor and the service was great. I'd highly recommend itVegetarian options: The vegetarian pizza had more toppings than anywhere I've seen, delicious combination of ingredients”

“We stopped in for brunch/lunch & everything was delicious!We each enjoyed a french pressed coffee. I had a spinach & tomato eggs benedict, which was served with a side of potato wedges & salad with a balsamic vinaigrette (delicious).My partner had what he proclaimed was "the best BLT I've ever had."As a bonus, we were greeted by a lovely kitty outside of the restaurant!”

“Talk about a small town gem!! Amazing staff, delicious desserts, and they are always so happy when I bring my dogs in to say hi. And don't even get me started on the cheesecakes... yum! Would visit every day if my metabolism worked a little faster, lol.”

“My mom and I stopped in here for the first time today, and we are both extremely glad we did. The atmosphere was very welcoming, and the surroundings were extremely clean. Our waitress, Paige, was very friendly and personable. She was very efficient with anything we needed for the table, and checked in with us at the perfect times. The food was fresh, hot, and well-cooked. We will definitely be returning!Parking: Excellent paved parking”

“Okay, didn't know what to get for dinner after a big day travelling - pizza it is. Staying in Chester we thought we'd give this place a try - do not regret it. The pizza (big) fed two of us and was even custom made (half meat lovers, half vegetarian - yes you can't get more contrast on a pizza). Also picked up a 12 finger garlic pizza. The food was fantastic and so full of flavour - great job guys.”

“A great place locally for Chinese cuisine.We are never disappointed.Prices are competitive, the food is fresh and served in sharable portions, and the staff is always friendly and willing to accommodate dietary restrictions/allergies where possible.”

“This place doesn't rely on its location. I'm from the west coast and their essential IPA is probably in the top 10% of IPAs I've ever had. So well rounded. I'm to pick up a bunch at the airport before I fly out and share it with my other craft beer appreciating, friends.”

“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!”

“Ok so I’m just passing through Chester and stopped to get some gas and then saw the subway next door. I usually eat subway 3-4 times a week. Today Sunday March 10th 2024 around 2pm I was greeted by two super friendly girls. The girl with the accent made my salad as if my mom was making it for me. She cut up the tomatoes and cucumbers ( not in half) but in 4’s! It was so much easier to eat and you can actually taste the full flavour when the veggies are chopped up. The meat was heated to perfection and the dressing was spread around ( not in one corner) like the other places do. I felt like a customer and not just a number. I enjoyed every bite because of this experience. The place was very organized and clean, all veggies and proteins were filled in the containers. The glass wasn’t smudged and the soda fountain area was organized and easily accessible ( away from the main door) unlike other locations. So this location sets a good example on how the public wants all the subways to be. Such a warm and welcoming little deli store. I’ll definitely be back when I pass through.”

“I just retired after close to 31 years I travelled constantly throughout the Maritime Provinces I loved a good Pizza Big Reds is actually the best pizza available , they have the best crust, the best sauce and they use top quality ingredients I alway order 1 or 2 extra orders of cheese to offset the amount of sauce they use so one does not over power the other Big Reds goes home better than anyone else pizza also and is great for Breakfast LUiNA, Vitos and Pizza Shack are close in Moncton, Saint John Fredericton and Bathurst but over all Big Reds wins hands down”

“If you're hungry and find yourself in Chester, this is a great place to stop and enjoy a meal.I tried the meat pie and WOW!! Just try it and you will understand!!”

“Super clean, nice little spot. Short wait time! The fish we had was so so good. Probably our favourite of the summer! And the fries were super crispy and thick! We are so glad we stopped. Thank you :)”

“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.Parking: Enough parking, best location.”

“The fish and chips were a fair price ($12.99) these days. The chips are hand cut (which is a rarity) and delicious. The fish was a good size, fresh, and had a tempura-like batter, and was delicious. The coleslaw was homemade and delicious. The ambiance is pretty much non existent, and the table and floor cleanliness needs attention. I would go back for the fish and chips for sure.”
