Reviews for The Old Fish Factory Restaurant in Lunenburg, NS
We had an excellent experience here. Sat on the patio, delightful atmosphere and views of the water. The patio is dog friendly... and they even brought our pup a water bowl. The food and service were great. The seafood tasted fresh and was delicious. Nicedrink selection too. Read more
The lobster roll was delicious. We have to pay extra for sides but the sweet potatoes fries were worth it. They were out on a... couple items on their menu due to supply chain issues but it was wasn?t a problem for us. Service was super fast. We were seatedon the patio by the water. Amazing experience overall but a little bit pricey. Read more
Nice restaurant right on the water (same building as fishing museum). Kitchen very slow but our server (Jacob I think?) was... attentive. Kids menu mediocre. We really enjoyed the seafood dip and lobster roll. Pulled pork sandwich a bit too sweet butstill pretty good. Fish tacos were ok, seasoning weren't quite our taste. Sat on the patio to enjoy the view. Read more
Amazing food and outstanding experience. We had a great view of the water and boats going by, the service is great and... restaurant quite spacious with patio seating for those who prefer it (we loved the 2nd floor better given the hot day). Some ofthe other locations in the town had long lineups, this went quite fast probably because its located within the Fisheries Museumand not as visible. The fish and chips was delicious with huge portions, in fact everything was quite generous. I know somehave commented on it being a bit expensive but we did compare prices with a few other places with long lineups and did not findit more expensive. We also tried the Chicken fingers from the kids menu and for dessert ordered the Chocolate brownie withraspberry sauce and ice cream. The coffee was very good, they told us its a local store and you can buy it from them. They havefree refills on the pop and coffee. Overall fantastic value for money and delicious food. Read more
Waiting for my table. 15 minutes which is not bad for a Saturday night in the summer. Calamari was amazing and was gone almost... instantly. Seafood dip is also good. Ambiance is great. Looks fantastic inside. Right on the dock and we had a window seat. All woodgrain interiors. Our host is very friendly and courteous. Read more
The server was amazing, very attentive to our needs. However, 45 minutes for dinner which consisted of two appetizers and fish... and chips. They said there is no room inside but went inside several times to find many empty tables and few people actuallyusing the ones that were there. The people there seem nice but not somewhere I?d be going again or recommending. Read more
Overall good experience. A bit over priced in my opinion however food was tasty Started with the seafood dip, it was creamy and... tasty however didnt really taste like seafood at all. The calamari was lightly breaded fried and had a nice marinara sauce. Formains we had the whole lobster, the jerk fish tacos, fish and chips and the mussels. Lobster was fresh and had an option for alarger lobster. Came with boiled potatoes and a salad. Fish and chips were lightly battered, and like some reviews the fishitself was a bit thin. The mussels came out ice cold but our waitress was fabulous and was corrected immediately. Once theycame back out they were hot and good sized; would have been nice to have a piece of bread to dip in the broth. Then jerk fishtacos were ok. 2 tacos with halibut, pineapple and some cilantro dressing. I did not get any jerk flavouring whatsoever. Thestaff was excellent, friendly and great to deal with. Depending where you sit you also have a great view of the water! Read more
Great location, great food and good service!!! Live music was an added bonus! Almost everything we had was pretty good. The... fish and chips were food with massive portions. The Lobster roll was spectacular. I'd go back just for that. Everything elsewas pretty good. Didn't care much for the soup and salad. Not the best place to eat if you have a vegetarian with you though. They were a bit confused with what a vegetarian can and can not eat, lol. Read more
