5 Best Restaurants in The Fundy Coast, New Brunswick

Overlooking the bay with seating inside or out on a rustic deck, this 1926 former meetinghouse now houses a fine restaurant. Everything is top quality, from the simple but expertly produced lunchtime options—seafood chowder, sandwiches, frittata—to more substantial dinner selections such as traditional cedar-planked salmon with a ginger glaze, steak bavette with chipotle hollandaise sauce, or herb-crusted lamb loin chops.

Seafood, steaks, lamb, and veal share the menu with pasta and pizzas at this upbeat Italian restaurant where Old World flavors are showcased in a friendly setting. The large portions and the bread bar are almost as popular as the World Wine Cellar, so reservations are advised. .

A relaxing meal with breathtaking harbor views (and fleece blankets available in case the wind comes up) on the outdoor deck of this friendly harborside eatery is the perfect way to end a day of whale-watching or craft shopping. The hearty seafood chowder will warm the heart and soul on a foggy Fundy night, and the lobster club sandwich is a favorite; there are also non-fish dishes on the menu such as steaks—and, of course, the house-made desserts.

The name of this classy gastropub is a fun play on words, referencing the proximity of Moncton's tidal bore and the seafood and boar on the menu, but it takes its food very seriously, earning a very loyal local following and a place on Maclean's Magazine's list of Canada's Top 50 restaurants. The menu includes upscale pub favorites and inventive combinations, and the drinks menu is long, focusing mainly on draught and bottled craft beers.
