Baddeck Lobster Suppers
Fresh hard-shell lobster and all you can eat chowder and mussels! Incredible! And while the food is amazing, so too are the stories behind the food. Arriving from Scotland in 1828, John Montgomery and his wife planted their roots along the coast of Cape Breton Island, where they farmed the land and fished the waters to provide for their family. The Montgomery men continue to fish these shores today, bringing the finest fresh lobster to Baddeck Lobster Suppers.
- Locally-fished hard shelled lobster, Atlantic salmon, Cape Breton snow crab or AAA strip loin steak
- All you can eat mussels & chowder
- Locally-sourced wines and spirits
