An extensive wine list and menu, perfect for an intimate dinner for two or a family gathering. Creations such as Northumberland Crab Cakes or Maple Planked Salmon are made with fresh local ingredients. After dinner, enjoy our large selection of scotch in the Oceanview Lounge. Live entertainment weekly at our now-famous “Sunday Brunch Buffet” and soon-to-be famous “Prime Jazz Night” Tuesdays, featuring our Prime Rib Special.

The-Port-Pub

Located in a very unique nautical setting with a serene riverside view of the rising and falling tides, The Port Gastro Pub is where you can go to enjoy the Annapolis Valley’s only microbrewery – East Coast Living Magazine named our Rojo Mojo Red Ale the best in Atlantic Canada – or just to sit, relax and enjoy the friendly atmosphere.

We are locally owned and operated, and strong advocates for the use of fresh, local and in-season ingredients. Try them out in our Porter Cheddar Soup, Lamb Burger and Grilled Vegetable Ciabatta Sandwich.

Quarterdeck-Restaurant

The oceanside view of surf and sand is delicious … the food amazing. Dine inside or outside on the Grill’s all-weather covered deck. Located on spectacular Summerville Beach, a mile-long stretch of white sand, our luxuriously appointed Villas are open year-round. Try sumptuous lobster tails stuffed with scallops and shrimp or our specialty Planked Atlantic Salmon, prepared over an open firepit. The Quarterdeck has a reputation as the sandy South Shore’s finest for fresh seafood, great steaks, tempting desserts and extreme cocktails, plus a cellar full of wines! Taste of Nova Scotia Restaurant of the Year 2005.
