Honestly worth the drive to this place. It’s such a cute little community around this harbour. The gift shops have some unique stuff and your basic tourist stuff as well. Now the food experience is amazing. The seafood options they have are amazing from just seafood to seafood filled roll, poutine’s and pastas. They also had a good selection of non seafood options as well so don’t worry. Staff are friendly and helpful. They have a window in the store where you can actually watch the fishermen/ staff bring in the fresh catches.

Our second time in a few seasons visiting the area and lunch at Halls Harbour Lobster pound! It’s become a destination for us and our lunch this time was really fantastic. We ordered the Lobster Roll and trimmings and once again this has to be the best Lobster roll we have had in all of NS!! Can’t show you pictures as I devoured it!!! Highly recommend the restaurant and food! Location is amazing and the staff is super! Very welcoming and attentive!! Love the gift shop too!! Be back soon!!!

We stopped at the Lobster Pound for my husband’s 50th birthday on our way to our next destination, and it was such a great choice. He had the fresh lobster and said it was out of this world good. I went for a hamburger, and it was also really delicious. The view is spectacular—such a beautiful spot to sit and eat—and the service was truly top notch. Highly recommend!

Have been going to Halls Harbor for fresh lobster since the ‘80s you cannot eat steamed Lobster right out of the water!!!! Their homemade coleslaw and potato salad are great too. In the days gone by we ate outside the cooking window on picnic tables - it has evolved over the years but same memories return being there beside the Bay of Fundy- just there is past week

The server, Austin, was absolutely amazing—such a pleasure to support local! Reid and Rodger Cameron are truly two of the best people in the world. The views alone—home to the fastest tides in the world—make this place a 10/10, but it’s the people that make it an unforgettable experience. Can’t wait to come back next week!
