We ordered from the take-out window. I had the Bacon Mozzarella Burger Platter ($17.59), and my wife chose the Pan-Fried Scallops ($17.65).
I should have asked more questions about the burger, but based on the price, I expected something more substantial. Unfortunately, it was thin, dry, and lacked flavor—comparable to a frozen bulk burger, if not worse. The only redeeming part was the toppings I requested, which provided the only real flavor.
The fries were generic, frozen, and dry…nothing memorable.
My wife’s scallops were okay but on the small side, especially compared to what’s served at Diane’s just up the road. For $7 more, you can get significantly larger and better scallops at Diane’s, making it a better value in our opinion.
On a positive note, the lady who served us was pleasant and friendly.
Overall, we found the food disappointing for the price point and would not be returning based on this experience.

Honest review portion size was tiny, all fries, we paid just over 50 bucks for these 2 plates. The food is good, good service, good atmosphere, clean, but….. when the plates hit the table, my fiance and I were very underwhelmed. Usually, when you go to a place like this, they give you a big pile. Fish filet for the fish and chips was tiny also, which isn’t a big deal because it was really good. But if you are going to charge that much money for it, maybe give a little extra somewhere else? Left this place, tummy still growling
Very disappointed in that sense. For reference and comparison, if you want to see what right looks like. Go to Pleasant street diner in Dartmouth
Can’t even finish a 25 dollar plate over there, and the quality is amazing.
I usually don’t write reviews this long, but an amazing day ended with the feeling of being robbed blind. I hope it was just a one off kind of thing
Also….the Cole Slaw was bitter

The deep fried ice cream is the best ! We visited last year and came back just for that. Such a beautiful area to visit.

My partner and our friends went to Granny’s today for supper. They placed their order first, and ours was rung through just a few moments after, however in that moment between, somebody called in a takeout order unbeknownst to us. Our friends’ food came very fast! But they had to make the takeout order before they could do ours. They apologized profusely for the delay, which was seriously no big deal. We were not bothered in the least. At least twice again they popped over to the table to apologize and said they would treat us to a nice dessert for the inconvenience! (Which we were not bothered by).
Upon our food arriving -still within a totally acceptable timeframe- we could not get over how good it was. It wasn’t super greasy, wasn’t over battered, it was very flavourful and crispy. The family oriented environment made us feel right at home. We told stories, laughed and had a great experience.
After our supper plates were polished off, a very nice lady brought us over our promised dessert which we absolutely made room for.
Stopping at Granny’s tonight was the perfect end to a great day. What was supposed to be a quick bite before the drive home turned into an evening of laughter and memories.
Staff is amazing, food was delicious, service we received can’t be topped.
10/10.

It’s one of my favorite places to grab a bit to eat on a road trip down the coast. Always great food and service. Eat-in, take-out, or eat on one of their tables outside.

We heard this was the place to try. Loved the roadside diner vibe. The battered clams were light and not greasy. The scallops were breaded and excellent. Both were generous portions. At the next table the hamburger platter was large and the customer, a local, said it was her usual.

Delicious fried clams and fries — and you get a huge pile of both. The clams were especially well done, with a nice batter that was light and not oily-tasting (no oily fingers after eating, which I appreciate). I also had a sundae with their homemade strawberry sauce, which was delicious too. They have no indoor dining right now — most local folks seemed to be getting takeout — but we ate on the patio tables outside and enjoyed the forest view.

The food was amazing as always and the deep fried ice cream sundae with their homemade strawberry sauce was excellent. I can’t wait to go back.

I’ve never had clams as good as I have til I tried Granny’s. Wow. I’ve had Diane’s countless of times and along with most of the restaurants in town for clams and it’s incomparable! Absolutely amazing.

Great people! Great Food! Great Ice Cream!
Billie Jo runs this place and it’s wonderful. She and her staff are some of the best we have encountered during our month long Canada adventure. Thank You!
The Fish & Chips are fantastic, fried or grilled, they are both cooked to perfection! To top it off, the numerous varieties of ice cream will blow you away as to which flavor to pick. I had the “Death by Chocolate”, Yummmmmmy!
She came outside and chatted with us for a bit about the family business, hence the “Granny’s” name and also educated us on “Dulse” seaweed, even let us try some, her own stock, and it was pretty good. A bit on the salty side but good none the less.
You can’t go wrong if you stop by, she’s only open till September, so get by before then. Tell her “Larry from Oklahoma” sent ya!
Enjoy and safe travels!
