My partner and our friends went to Granny’s today for supper. They placed their order first, and ours was rung through just a few moments after, however in that moment between, somebody called in a takeout order unbeknownst to us. Our friends’ food came very fast! But they had to make the takeout order before they could do ours. They apologized profusely for the delay, which was seriously no big deal. We were not bothered in the least. At least twice again they popped over to the table to apologize and said they would treat us to a nice dessert for the inconvenience! (Which we were not bothered by).
Upon our food arriving -still within a totally acceptable timeframe- we could not get over how good it was. It wasn’t super greasy, wasn’t over battered, it was very flavourful and crispy. The family oriented environment made us feel right at home. We told stories, laughed and had a great experience.
After our supper plates were polished off, a very nice lady brought us over our promised dessert which we absolutely made room for.
Stopping at Granny’s tonight was the perfect end to a great day. What was supposed to be a quick bite before the drive home turned into an evening of laughter and memories.
Staff is amazing, food was delicious, service we received can’t be topped.
10/10.
My family and I were camping and stopped at this place for ice cream. We ordered 1 kiddy cone, 2 one scoop cones and 2 two scoop cones however all of our cones came out the same size. Almost $30 in ice cream that ended up being all the same sizes anyway. They also had several flavors listed but when we got to the counter, several actually weren't available.
🚨🚨Honest review🚨🚨 portion size was tiny, all fries, we paid just over 50 bucks for these 2 plates. The food is good, good service, good atmosphere, clean, but..... when the plates hit the table, my fiance and I were very underwhelmed. Usually, when you go to a place like this, they give you a big pile. Fish filet for the fish and chips was tiny also, which isn't a big deal because it was really good. But if you are going to charge that much money for it, maybe give a little extra somewhere else? Left this place, tummy still growling
Very disappointed in that sense. For reference and comparison, if you want to see what right looks like. Go to Pleasant street diner in Dartmouth
Can't even finish a 25 dollar plate over there, and the quality is amazing.
I usually don't write reviews this long, but an amazing day ended with the feeling of being robbed blind. I hope it was just a one off kind of thing 🤔😐
Also....the Cole Slaw was bitter
Good place and you have blue lobster restaurant nearby so after some good food you can walk here for some ice cream

Adorable little restaurant on the main strip. Fish and chips were great, lightly battered and not at all oily or mushy. Chicken burger was good with yummy gravy. We already plan to return

It's one of my favorite places to grab a bit to eat on a road trip down the coast. Always great food and service. Eat-in, take-out, or eat on one of their tables outside.
