How often do you get to eat in a lighthouse. There is a lovely little tearoom at the Cape Forchu lighthouse. They serve soup, sandwiches, desserts, and tea and coffee for a reasonable price.
Favorite Dish: The fish chowder was excellent. Halibut, potatoes and onions in a light broth. It was served with an egg salad sandwich which was delicious.

The Quick & Tasty is almost a Yarmouth icon. It has been here for nearly 40 years. Originally it was called Harris' Quick and Tasty, and run by a husband/wife team. It now has a new owner, but the food is being made with the original recipes, and that's good. Charlie Harris was a fisherman originally, and he really knew his seafood. His wife, Clara, must have been some cook, cause the seafood here is tops! It is a bit expensive for a diner, but you need to remember, seafood is expensive, and if you want it done right, well, you get what you pay for.
Favorite Dish: Anything with seafood. The chowder is the best in town. The fried clams are really great. If you have a good appetite, try the seafood platter, it gives you a little taste of everything.

Excellent food, generous portions, great selection, very reasonable prices. All this and you can add a great staff, a quiet and pleasant atmosphere for a relaxing evening. Everything is made fresh, so you do wait, but the music is nice, not too loud, so you can sit back relax with a coffee, glass of wine, etc. chat a bit, relax a bit, and then be ready for a treat!!!
Favorite Dish: Hard to choose. They really do good with seafood, but then their chicken dishes are good as well. To choose one thing, however, I guess it would be:
Mushroom & Radish salad to start
Coquilles St. Jacques, with their twice-baked potato
and finish with their cheese crepe with strawberry sauce.
Problem is, I can never eat all of this. they are a little too generous for my appetite.
Fortunately, I live close, so some days I go for the salad, other days I go for the meal, and some days I just go for dessert!

Took the ferry from Bar Harbor, ME to Yarmouth. Didn't really spend much time in the town. We headed of along the east coast of Nova Scotia in direction of Halifax.
