Great portions of food. Boyfriend had fresh haddock filet and fries, and I had a hot chicken sandwich with fries. Both meals were delicious! Friendly service.

Their menu has something for everyone. The big country breakfest will fill you for the morning and their Brisket / SMASH burgers were both amazing. I havent stayed in the motel personally but from the people I've talked to, it's worth the 5 star rating all around. Looking forward to spending some wing nights there in the future as well !

We always eat here when I'm down home to see the scenery once in a blue moon. Fish and chips are and always have been the BEST since I was a kid. Comming back before the snow flies.we will stay a note next year

Stopped for some fish and chips and they were delish! Large portions and fair price. Definitely recommend! Service was great. If I could suggest something to the owner it is to cover the tables with glass or something as the groves had dirt in them and that could turn people off. Besides that it was great.

Sheet Harbour was one of the last towns we visited on a week long trip around Nova Scotia. It may not be the most visited town but it has a lot to offer. This is a simple motel that offers a very pleasant stay. The rooms may be basic but that’s all we needed. The restaurant was a bonus with really friendly staff and very good food.
