The ambiance and the live band were very good...however, the food was almost horrible.
The seafood chowder was good but was not "Classic East Coast" in anyway! I'm from Nova Scotia and have lived in NB & PEI and have never, never had seafood chowder like that.
The fish & chips were horrible. Unseasoned and the batter was just flour and water. Worse of all, the haddock was frozen and thawed in water - a health code violation by the way. To top it all off, the coleslaw was tasteless. Not what I expected from an East Coast themed pub.
My GF started with Nachos which had about 1/4 of the cheese it should have had.
Then she had the steak sandwich. The "steak" was poor quality and very thin. It was unseasoned and the grill it was cooked hadn't been cleaned properly in at least a month...possibly longer. The caesar salad side was ok, store bought dressing and not much of it, but ok.
Our server did a great job and very friendly. But our main course came out about 5 minutes after out appetizers, so our main's sat on the table as we finished the appetizers.
I would go back for music and drinks but if the manager wants to improve, my suggestion would be to replace the cooking staff...they should not be cooking as a profession.
