Very good service, good, and pretty view I had the pesto roasted vegetable sandwich and it was amazing. My husband had the green salad. Very tasty and the staff was friendly and pleasant.

A piece of "home", in Nova Scotia. Two words - WELSH CAKES! I'm a Welshman who has lived in Nova Scotia for 12 years, and rarely gets to sample the culture of home, let alone meet another Welsh person.This weekend we visited The Henley House, first for their amazing Welsh afternoon tea, and secondly for dinner.It was great to meet Meryl (her and I grew up 20 miles apart in Wales) and her husband, and be able to talk about all of the places back "home", even drawing some parallels between relatives who had worked in the same places.The afternoon tea was spectacular. Welsh cakes that tasted like my mother's back home, delicious sandwiches, and tea served from crockery with daffodils on it.Dinner was equally tasty - and as Brit I couldn't not try the fish and chips. 10/10!So nice to be able to meet a fellow countryperson, and wander around looking at the Welsh memorabilia scattered around the pub.This is such a gem. We'll be back. Diolch yn fawr iawn!

Great lunch! My husband and I enjoyed lunch here in August 2021 while exploring the Eastern Shore area. There's a nice patio but we opted to sit in as it was chilly. I had the roasted veggie pesto sandwich on a ciabatta bun, my husband had a chicken club. The side salads were fresh, tasty and generous as were the sandwiches. We were delighted with the complementary biscuits that arrived in a paper bag shortly after being seated. They come with a little tub of molasses-beer-butter spread--different and delicious! The ale is from the Sober Island brewery next door (next stop for us!).

Terrific service and great food Decided to break out of the COVID stay-home and travel a couple of hours to a recommended pub - and it was well worth it! All safety protocols in place and staff and patrons alike adhere to the facemasks/distancing/sanitizing rules. Made for a comfortable atmosphere for our supper. The seafood linguine and lobster roll choices were perfect! And the locally made Sober Island Brews were perfect matches to the meal! Will recommend this to friends.

Busy and good food Very busy for a lunch hour but service was ok and food great. They have gluten-free options and a smaller menu likely due to the pandemic. Some items like sweet potato fries overpriced. Biscuits arrived with odd beer molasses butter. Ok but would be nice to have regular butter as well. Garden salad excellent. They are trying to cope with the new restrictions. Have seen better and worse. Would go back.
