6 Best Seafood Restaurants near New Glasgow

“Wow what a spectacular dinning experience. Thank you for a marvelous meal full of fresh flavour. The baked oysters where to die for. The fresh pasta and the sauce with local flavour was the best meal we have had all year. May I add that it is so nice to compliment your meal with cocktails prepared by a professional bar tender. I have found my favorite restaurant. Good food and great service the little gull bistro one of the best in the Maritimes.“

“There were two gluten free people in our party, and we both loved the choices. I had the chicken burger, kale salad, and shared onion rings and the cauliflower bites. It was hard to believe they were gluten free. 10 out of 10 for food, service, and atmosphere. I’ll be back when I’m in New Glasgow again.“

“We stopped here on the way back from the ferry. The food was delicious ( I had the Cobb salad and my daughter had the skillet meatballs) The service was impeccable, I can’t remember the girls name at the front, but she said she usually closes, she was so welcoming and helpful. I hope that her manger gives her a raise because she sure deserves it. She was just sooo nice ! They have a small gift store in the front , a distillery and make their own beer. If you’re driving through here it’s definitely recommended! A++++“
