4 Best Restaurants in The Fundy Coast, New Brunswick

A local institution in the heart of town, Honeybeans serves coffee so good that there’s a regular early morning line of locals stretching out of the door. There’s a long coffee menu, including Fair Trade and decaf, more than 30 types of tea, and house-baked treats including sweet pastries, cheese croissants, and gluten-free items. Milk can be substituted with soy or coconut milk on request.

A relaxing meal with breathtaking harbor views (and fleece blankets available in case the wind comes up) on the outdoor deck of this friendly harborside eatery is the perfect way to end a day of whale-watching or craft shopping. The hearty seafood chowder will warm the heart and soul on a foggy Fundy night, and the lobster club sandwich is a favorite; there are also non-fish dishes on the menu such as steaks—and, of course, the house-made desserts.

The name of this classy gastropub is a fun play on words, referencing the proximity of Moncton's tidal bore and the seafood and boar on the menu, but it takes its food very seriously, earning a very loyal local following and a place on Maclean's Magazine's list of Canada's Top 50 restaurants. The menu includes upscale pub favorites and inventive combinations, and the drinks menu is long, focusing mainly on draught and bottled craft beers.
