"We stopped by and had a pleasant lunch. We were very impressed with the head chef, (Mark). He visits nearly each, and every table, making sure everything was satisfactorily made to order. You just don’t see that service much anymore! The food was excellent! And was priced fairly. And kudos to our waitress Hannah. She’s an excellent server. Very conscientious. We’ll be back soon."

"Should expand drink menu, many beers are only breweries (Allagash, Citizen Cider) and waiter doesn't know the actual selection offered. Fries were very good, location perfect!"

"We had guests from Texas and we wanted a beautiful place to impress them,we chose to do that here. The food was delicious we (all 4 of us) ordered the exact same thing. We didn't realize that we were( the battered fish with coleslaw and fries ) I found that there was a lot of batter on the fish so I was just eating the fish which was so moist and flaky (so tasty) they need to change the menu to include a meal of broiled fish,no batter( Hint,hint ) One of our guests never had a maple creamy so she ordered a small one, after one bite she wished she ordered a large one .The atmosphere was beautiful, and the waiter I cannot express how delightful he was, he brought a smile to all of us. Almost like he sat the tone for the evening, very happy and funny. Well done!! We found that all the staff was very nice .and all had smiles Definitely will be back."

"We spotted the Pier Bar on our way north through the islands, and returned for an early meal and cocktails out by the water. Great spot! Live music, good food, friendly wait staff and tasty beverages over a fantastic waterview with super comfy adirondacks and a fire pit."

"Stopped here on our way from Canada to Burlington vt. I normally don’t like mayo based sauces in my lobster rolls (I’m a butter person) but this one with the sundried tomato aioli was AMAZING. The vibes are also really cool since you’re right on the water. Parking is a pain because you have to park on the street in the bike lane but totally worth stopping in if you’re in the area!"

"Great restaurant right on the lake front in North Hero. Boaters haven, with lots of space to relax while wait for a table. The chicken wings and chips and fish are good. The nachos comes with tons of shredded tinga chicken or Birria beef ... The Birria beef looks delicious."

"A fine spot on the water in North Hero. First time diner at this gem. I had the Honduran pulled pork sandwich with Mac & cheese french frys and a pickle with a rum and diet cola. Louise our waitress was terrific. It was a little chilly, but we are Northeners so we enjoyed the experience."
