Where to Eat in Nova Scotia

Nova Scotia has great restaurants!  You can find pubs, 5-star restaurants, coffee shops, steaks, seafood, hamburgers, sushi and just about anything else. The choice is really great.  I have never been disappointed in a Nova Scotia restaurant.

The locals usually know the best places. One thing that NS is famous for is community dinners. Be sure to check the local visitor info centre wherever you are to ask.

I was in Margaree when there was a salmon dinner at the local community center.  It was packed & it was great!

Lobster & White Wine

You will see resources to find the best restaurants in particular areas of the province as you go through my pages.  I am hoping that folks will add their choices for best restaurants on my pages.

This is me enjoying a crab dinner at the Chowder House in Neil's Harbour on the Cabot Trail in Cape Breton.  

This is a real treat after hiking the Coastal Trail!!

The Taste of Nova Scotia is a collection of restaurants, producers and processors in the province.  Their website is a great listing of the best places to eat in the province.  Just click on their members tab and select the area and you will get a great list.

Fish & Chips
Lamb & Asparagus

They do publish a brochure with all of their members listed. Just visit one of the many Visitor Information Centres scattered throughout the province and they should have one for you.

Another great thing about their website: recipes. They have a great collection of Nova Scotia recipes..........ENJOY!!

The Restaurant Association of Nova Scotia (RANS) also has an awesome listing of places to dine in the province.  They also offer coupons on their website plus lots of recipes.

Trip Advisor is super for finding restaurants in Nova Scotia.  The information is organized by area and then by type of food. A great resource with lots of customer comments.

But the best way to find a good restaurant is always by word-of-mouth.  So please share with us your favourite Nova Scotia restaurant.
