We booked the bowling lane for two hours. Everyone was able to get an excellent meal and sit comfortably in the bar area. It does start to fill up after nine as a club, but we were just finishing up so it worked out perfectly.

Great food, good happy hour specials. The ambiance and decor is fun. The oysters were great - nice selection of sauces. I had the Fundy Scallops and loved it - good for low-carb folk. My husband had mussels and the sauce was so good I wanted to drink it! The service was fine, nothing to complain about.
