“Visiting PEI from So Cal. Needed something quick and easy to take back to our room. This panini was the best I’ve ever had - and I’ve been to Italy! Fresh bread, delicious meat, super flavorful. Would definitely recommend!!!”

“We just received our delivery of Datcha (3 bokit sandwiches plus sweet potato fries) and everything was delicious down to the bread and sauces. We are so happy to discover this place!”

“we had an amazing first experience at Haru KBBQ! we called as we weren't sure how busy they'd be and just mentioned we would be there in 10 minute, to our surprise, the hostess greeted us and asked if we had called. when we said yes, she let us know they had reserved a table for us! From that first greeting, the experience continued to exceed our expectations! The service was exceptional, the food was beautifully prepared and tasted better than we ever could have expected and they even had our favourite Moth Lane Beer on offer!! we went in hoping to find "our spot" and we knew by the time the appetizers were on the table that we found just what we were looking for. Oh, and the fried Chicken...unbelievable!!”

“First time experiencing Leonhard’s Cafe & Restaurant. Went with my Mom and two sisters. Will not be the last. My new favourite spot to have coffee, food and dessert with the girls. Spectacular service, comfortable atmosphere. 10/10”

“Great food. Great people Give it a try!”

“The staff went above and beyond for us - we have 4 kids, 1 being a cranky 2 year old. I think maybe the man was a manager but he came out and held our toddler while we waited for food - which they got out extra speedy so the kids wouldn’t be waiting long. They gave the kids toys and were just overall super pleasant and lovely, kind and patient. Thank you! Ps not to mention the food was wonderful.”

“easily the best fish & chips I've had ! 10-10 service !!!!! ♡ fantastic experience !!!!!”

“Just had one of the best feeds of Chinese food I've had in a long time. Delicious food, A++ service. The staff are so friendly!”

“Excellent ice cream and butter too!”

“First time there today. Definitely going back.”

“We had the best Lamb Rogan Josh at Taste of India this week. I ordered it medium for extra spice and it was delicious. Lamb can be easily overcooked and this was cooked perfectly! Great portion size, would only need to split one protein with one vegetable curry for two people with naan/rice. We will be back :D”

“Thank you for hosting the crazy South African group of 29 last night, you rocked it! We came for Bunny Chow but some of us had other meals and everything was delicious!”

“Jenn was the waitresse who serve us for the birthday of my daughter. My daughter says it was her best birthday ever! Each time we come in Charlottetown we come here and we never be dessappointed”

“I love this bakery. I buy smartie cookies and cinnamon rolls everything is so good.”

“I have been here a couple of times and I can honestly say they never disappoint! Their food is phenomenal and so is the service! Also, they were great at making my meals Dairy-free as needed.”

“Good Food and Great Service”

“The staff went above and beyond for us - we have 4 kids, 1 being a cranky 2 year old. I think maybe the man was a manager but he came out and held our toddler while we waited for food - which they got out extra speedy so the kids wouldn’t be waiting long. They gave the kids toys and were just overall super pleasant and lovely, kind and patient. Thank you! Ps not to mention the food was wonderful.”

“I worked with Ryan to schedule a corporate team dinner here for a large group of about 50 people. From our first interaction, Ryan was incredibly helpful and even guided us on restaurant recommendations for other parts of our trip even though they were not part of his restaurant group. He was very organized and we felt confident and well taken care of heading into our trip.

When we arrived, everything was set up perfectly. Ryan was there to make sure everything went according to plan, and our servers, Shelley and Tasia, were TOP NOTCH. Everyone in our group commented on how awesome they were. It can be tough to serve such a large group efficiently, but I was always being offered a drink or asked if I needed anything before I thought to ask myself.

Great folks, great food, great all around experience. I know all of us will return the next time we're back in Charlottetown!”

“Great food and great service! An underrated gem in downtown Charlottetown that everyone should get to try ❤️ My friends and I usually get their samgyupsal and we love it! A must-try”

“Excellent oysters nice atmosphere”

“great food and excellent service”

“Try the Ricotta Montata, shrimp and meatballs- they’re killer.”

“Love the food experience at Casa Mia”

“The Brickhouse The food was excellent, and the atmosphere and service were exceptional! We especially loved the globe chandelier in the stairwell —it’s a stunning centerpiece and quickly became a topic of conversation (though not entirely for the right reason). With a good dusting once or twice a week, it would truly shine and capture everyone’s attention for at least a minute or two.”

“Great food, atmosphere is awesome and staff is very very nice.”

“Great place.....great beer, great service...wonderful people!”

“Had a great lunch today - best pho in Orleans. Had rare beef pho and it was super delicious, well seasoned broth and fresh Thai basil. Spring rolls had a great crunch!”

“Dropped in while touring Charlettown – we got right in and sat at the perfect table, it was inside but with the windows/doors open, it felt like you were outside but temp was it was much cooler. Service was quite spotty – it took a long time to get water and drink orders but eventually someone showed up. It didn’t even seem that busy, there were plenty of staff hovering around the back bar. I ordered the BBQ Burger with a Caesar salad– wife ordered the salmon and easy kid order a cheese burger with fries and difficult kid order the nachos. BBQ Burger was delicious, and the cesar salad was exceptionally delicious, I wasn’t expecting that different taste, next time I would order the big salad as a meal. BBQ Burger, no complaints, it was tasty – easy kid gave the burger a 9.7 and picky kid gave the nachos a 6.7 because there wasn’t enough cheese, yet she did eat the whole plate. Wife said the salmon was cooked to perfection but there were no herbs – there didn’t seem to be a lot of vegetables. There was rhubarb as a vegetable along with small chunks of carrot. The rice was crunchy but it was good. Seems like a great spot – according to other reviews, might have been an off day with service but it does seem to happen randomly.”

“Breakfast buffet was pretty good. I wish they had more fruit or pancakes/waffles but the main breakfast food was good but the desserts were bland. Service was great”

“Just had them for the first time today! There dumplings are amazing!”

“the pizza was good, and the guy who was taking orders (Seb?) and the lady who was helping him (Abe, I think?) were super friendly!! props to both of them for great customer service! it was also super nice inside, it's a pretty cute store.”

“I ordered a Bailey’s cold brew with the Bailey’s cold foam. It is delicious! I went through the drive thru, and though it was busy, it was fast.

Vegetarian options: Most of their stuff comes with the vegetarian option.

Dietary restrictions: They will make your food the way you ask.

Parking: They have a small section of a large parking lot. Spaces close the to store are hard to get, but there is lots of other parking if you’re willing to walk.

Wheelchair accessibility: There are no stairs, there is a ramp into the building, and automatic door buttons further back from the door.”

“great service, great location, friendly staff”

“I must say I was happy with the friendly customer service and the main thing the place looked really clean for a busy spot. I really don’t my giving this McDonald’s a good rating because they sure deserve it as the food tasted yummy and so fresh. With that being said I will most definitely being going back there when I am that way again.”

“Imagine; youre hungry, you want a mcdouble value meal, you go here, you order one, you eat it, you're no longer craving a mcdouble value meal. This could be your story.”

“Had a great visit. The newly refurbished Interior feels less commercial and more cozy. All it needs is a fireplace to take it over the top. Definitely going back.”

“Absolutely amazing everything we have eaten there. It is well worth the wait!”

“Papa Joe’s Christmas dinner to-go was fantastic! Everything was cooked perfectly, the reheat was easy, and everything turned out wonderfully. Very generous portions, too. It made the holiday great, especially being able to spend time together instead of cooking. I hope they do it again next year!”

“My wife and I were visiting the island and figured we’d grab breakfast at a local dine in restaurant, and chose Receiver Coffee - The Brass Shop. SO GLAD we did! WOW wow wow wow wow! The food was DELICIOUS and the coffee was amazing. The ONLY thing that topped the food was the HIGH QUALITY service we got from the young man that served us. One of the best…ever! Seriously one of our best dining experiences. Next drop over to the Island will definitely include a stop here!”

“Great spot for a delicious meal with reasonable prices and friendly staff!”

“We had the Korean menu, spicy chicken & beef bulgogi, and it was amazing! Very nice spice profile, just enough heat it's hard for us to get spicy food in Maine!). I asked the server if Korean was their specialty and she said yes, the owner was Korean and while Sushi is still very popular, he cooked authentic Korean as well. Highly recommend, excellent food at a very reasonable price!”

“The gluten free Tropic Thunder pizza was delicious and the best gluten free crust that I have ever had. Our server was fantastic! Amazing spot!”

“place, food , people and service are good”

“OK so I visited PEI a few weeks ago and was on the hunt for the best fries. I’m voting this place! First, the fries were EXCELLENT. Hand cut and they don’t start frying them until you order, so super fresh and hot. Also the girls working that evening were so lovely, wish I knew their names because they were so friendly and kind and deserve a shoutout. It was later in the day and the service was still A+.

It’s a small spot, but has seating indoors and outdoors, plus it is near a little park and the harbour front; benches everywhere. Super clean and well-maintained.”

“Every time we go the breakfast is delicious and served with a friendly smile 😊”

“For the price of admission, I would wish Trailside Music Hall would invest in some more comfortable seating rather than the worn out collection of kitchen chairs they currently use.”

“My partner and I have come here a lot over the years! Their drinks are always super delicious and it's the highlight of coming downtown, and the owners are very kind! I really wish they offered some sort of delivery though, since coming into town isn't always easy for me, but on the other hand I don't think my wallet would survive it haha! 🤣 Definitely give these people your business; this is the best bubble tea spot in town!”

“The pizza has the potential to be great, but it’s never cooked properly. The toppings are charred, but the dough is gummy and uncooked. My last 3 orders all had to be re cooked at home.”

“5-Star Review for an Amazing South Indian Dining Experience! 🥳 We recently celebrated a friend's birthday at Pizza Donair and Hub, and we couldn't be more thrilled with the experience! It was specially arranged on request! From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcome and ensured everything was perfectly arranged for the celebration. The arrangements for the party were flawless, with seating, and timely service that made the event feel truly special. Every little detail was taken care of, and the team went above and beyond to make it a memorable evening. The food was absolutely mind-blowing! We tried Masala Dosa and it was packed with authentic flavors, made with love, and served hot. From the crispy dosas to the spicy sambar and specially made red chutney for us, every bite took us on a delicious journey through South India. We were all deeply satisfied – not just with the food, but also the warm hospitality and top-notch service. The staff was attentive, friendly, and genuinely passionate about what they do. If you're looking for a place to enjoy authentic South Indian cuisine or host a small celebration with friends and family, I highly recommend this place, just let them inform in advance. It’s a must-visit, and we’ll definitely be back!”

“Friendly staffs, good food and atmosphere”

“What an absolute treasure of a find when we were in port on the NCL Gem last week. Richard Charron has got this pub thing dialed in. Great service, personality, and BEER. Thanks for providing a wonderful afternoon.”

“I would go back for the Horchata over and over again. kids loved the food. Which is awesome because they can be picky. Loved the service.”

“We’ve had food and drink here for quite some time. Amazing cocktails from a barman that tells us of his delight to have selection over the drink catalog. A peak into positive management that shows longevity and a care for its employees. A business that deserves its support.”

“Terrific British food, excellent beer, and friendly service”

“Delicious mussels, seafood chowder and Lobster roll make this a highly recommended stop in PEI”

“As someone who grew up in Charlottetown and has been dragging visiting relatives here for years, I never get tired of Founders' Hall. Stopped in on a quiet Tuesday evening last week and had the place almost entirely to myself, which made the whole experience feel a lot more personal than usual. The animatronic Fathers of Confederation exhibit in the main hall still gets me every time - there is something genuinely moving about hearing those voices in the low light. If you are a local who hasn't been in a while, it is absolutely worth a revisit.”

“We dined indoors and Sarah was fantastic taking care of my celiac condition and recommended great choices. We then went outside for drinks and more gf dessert ( lol ) Chole went above and beyond when she delt with some Personal concerns we encountered. She is a treasure. Thanks so much”

“The food was served piping hot. Pho was delicious. They have many menu options. The family that runs the place was really kind. Inside it's clean and tidy, but there was a little girl making noise. I wish they had some other music besides modern country playing as well.”

“We came from NS. A group of over 20 of us…we should have made a reservation but it was a very last minute decision. The entire staff accommodated us without question. Super friendly staff, quick service and awesome atmosphere. Thank you from the 15U Fury Basketball team (and their parents)!!!!🏀”

“The yummiest pho in Charlottetown and the friendliest, most genuine service you could find!! Our favourite spot for a feel-good supper 🙂”

“absolutely the tastiest donairs, garlic fingers and pizza I've found...I wouldn't change a thing”

“Hands down, the best cheese cake!”

“One of the best chicken here in PEI. The chicken is huge and crispy, my husband and my kids love it. We order 6pcs chicken and the chicken is beyond expectation. For the waiting time, i almost got pissed off because in the receipt it’s 7:11pm and we’ve waited until 7:37 :(. Good thing it is worth the wait. The chicken tastes really good and it’s huge. For 6pcs they gave us 7pcs. Im not sure, why 7 but we are grateful. Thank you. Hoping to improve the service because the food is really good.”

“Good was great and the workers were amazing as soon as I walked in.”

“We had a wonderful time sitting on the patio, enjoying the view. The food and service was wonderful! I am partially disabled and slowly made my way up the stairs only later to find out they have an elevator! They need to put that on their ads and sinage around the area”

“The girl name sonam and prabhjot should get promotion for their excellent work.”

“The Brickhouse The food was excellent, and the atmosphere and service were exceptional! We especially loved the globe chandelier in the stairwell —it’s a stunning centerpiece and quickly became a topic of conversation (though not entirely for the right reason).

“I was pleasantly surmised by the ambience, big, clean and comfortable.. I got the special, a chicken wrap, and it was loaded with real chicken. The fries were excellent. Just would like to see a less heavy hand with the salt in the soup and chicken salad I had butnfull of flavour”

“Being a hyderabadi, biryani runs in our veins. gotta say this place satisfies our biryani carving”

“Charlottetown, you have stolen my heart! The cold weather didn't matter thanks to Poabin's excellent service and the scrumptious lobster roll with fries and coleslaw - Lobster on the Wharf is a must-visit!”

“The staff went above and beyond for us - we have 4 kids, 1 being a cranky 2 year old. I think maybe the man was a manager but he came out and held our toddler while we waited for food - which they got out extra speedy so the kids wouldn’t be waiting long. They gave the kids toys and were just overall super pleasant and lovely, kind and patient. Thank you! Ps not to mention the food was wonderful.”

“Had a fantastic experience at Hunter’s Ale House last night! It was my first visit, but I can't wait to come back. My waitress was incredibly attentive and sweet, checking in frequently to ensure everything was to my liking. The manager (possibly the owner?) also went above and beyond, stopping by the table multiple times to chat and show excellent customer care. The smash burger was absolutely delicious - a standout dish that sealed the deal. I will definitely be back!”
