Right on the water in Chester, NS sits a wonderful seaside restaurant in sit in or outside options. Seasonal restaurant - closes late Oct. The seafood is fresh and deliciously prepared. Their Shellfish Chowder is a hit with everyone.

The beet salad and the mushroom carbonara were delicious. I wanted both so my sister and I shared. Service was excellent.

Great spot right on the water. Our table had the seafood rissoto and the chicken sandwich on focaccia with Caesar salad. Food, service, and views were awesome. Worth the trip from Halifax.

Vibe spot on the water in Chester, good food and friendly staff. Go for the view not the unique menu.

Mid afternoon meal on a busy day. Good was very good and service was as well.
Wings were very good and the Caesar salad was best we’ve had in a while.

Great place and amazing food. The hostess was kinda rude: no hello or anything, told us to put our name on the waiting list and proceeded to ignore us for the next 10 min. Place was nearly empty at the time!

This was one of my favorite stops in all of Nova Scotia. I have to say it was the best seafood chowder I've ever had in my life. The fish and chips were absolutely incredible. The drinks came quickly and were made with love! Extremely tasty! Wish we could've sat outside because of the views but it was raining when we arrived. Great find!

There is outside seating and you can dock your boat right outside the restaurant. The food was very good.

Great restaurant with a classic East Coast menu. Service was fast and friendly. Fish and chips were delicious. We were able to dock our boat right at the restaurant. Beautiful view of the Chester Waterfront.

Food is good but we waited a lot. First to get a table then to get a waitress to take our order, then to get our drinks and again to get the food.

Edit:
Customer service reached out to me and The issue was very professionally handled.
Thank you for taking the time to reach out.
My husband and I recently visited with high hopes for a delightful evening, given its amazing sea view. While the ambiance was stunning, our overall experience was overshadowed by a disappointing incident related to the vegan options.
Upon arrival, we were immediately impressed by the breathtaking sea view that the restaurant offered. The setting was undoubtedly romantic and conducive to a memorable dining experience. Our server, who seemed knowledgeable about beers, was friendly and attentive.
My husband decided to indulge in a lobster roll, while I, being a vegan, asked for the server's recommendation for a suitable plant-based option. To my delight, she suggested a vegan burger, and I eagerly ordered it. However, my excitement quickly waned when the burger arrived topped with dairy cheese. I politely requested the cheese to be removed, but after the first bite, it was evident that the patty contained eggs, making it unsuitable for a vegan diet.
Disappointed and feeling let down, I addressed the issue with the server. She seemed surprised and promised to verify the ingredients. Unfortunately, her confirmation confirmed my suspicions that the patty did, indeed, contain eggs. To my surprise, I was not offered any alternative options despite not having consumed the burger. Instead, the burger remained on the bill, and I was charged for an item I couldn't eat.
Feeling somewhat frustrated, I conveyed my concerns to the staff, emphasizing that I had specifically asked for a vegan option and was recommended the burger in question. However, the response I received was disheartening. The staff's explanation centered on the fact that the ingredient list was available on the menu, which I admittedly hadn't checked. While this may be true, the fault primarily lay with the server, who recommended the burger without thoroughly understanding its contents.
Regrettably, the incident marred an otherwise pleasant dining experience. My husband's lobster roll was enjoyable, and the beer selection was impressive. However, the lack of attentiveness regarding dietary preferences, coupled with the absence of an apology or a gesture to make amends for the mix-up, left us feeling disheartened.
In the end, we opted not to engage in an argument and paid the bill, but the unfortunate experience ensured we won't be returning to this restaurant. It is essential for any establishment, particularly one with such a stunning location, to cater to dietary preferences responsibly and professionally. Our hope is that the restaurant takes this feedback constructively and improves its understanding and accommodation of vegan options in the future.

This place is right on the water with lots of outdoor seating. If it ever fills up I don’t know where people park; at 3pm on a Tuesday it was active but not busy. Service was quick and the food was good. The bread is particularly of note, and there’s a good selection of seafood classics. I will definitely be back!

A staple for the east coast. I go out of my way to have a few pints when I'm in the area. Historic and great food to go along with a view that cannot be beat!
