Rain on the roof, harbour views, and a little extra East Coast atmosphere. 🌧️🦪

We’re OPEN today with our covered patio ready to keep you dry. Settle in, listen to the rain on the roof, grab a cocktail and some fresh seafood, and embrace a rainy day on the Lunenburg waterfront.

Honestly, the rain just adds to the charm. ⚓️
