  • A blackboard menu of sandwiches, salads, and daily specials
  • A bakery case heavy on squares, cookies, and pies
  • A friendly local crowd at any given time

Don't miss

  • A bowl of soup and a half-sandwich for lunch
  • Date squares or oatcakes for the road
  • Daily specials that lean into seasonal seafood

Good to know

  • Open seasonally, with reduced winter hours
  • Cards accepted
  • Wheelchair accessible
  • Free parking on Main Street

Pair it with

  • A pint and a tune at the Red Shoe Pub
  • A Glenora Distillery tour up the road
