Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"Can't say enough good things about this food and Donna! Found her place randomly on our way to Melmerby Beach. She wrapped up our food to go and treated us to a glorious rendition of "Oh Canada". The price is right and the food was delicious (seafood platter and fish and chips). Perfectly cooked and one of the best pieces of fish I had on our trip through Nova Scotia. Thanks Donna and I hope you get to vacation soon! Cheers from the sassy Ontario girl."

"Donna is such a treat to talk to. Her fish and chips were the best. We got to meet one of her regulars and you just know she’s served great food for a long time in Pictou! Thanks for your lovely company, Donna. Love from Toronto."
"Had the pleasure of meeting Donna today since moving to Stellarton. Burgers were right on the money for a drive-in - Buns were steamed and the Fries are frozen..but a great combo. Have to go elsewhere if you want something fancy - I shall return and Thank You Donna for the chat!"
"Best take out spot in Pictou County / Northumberland. Locals love this place. Seafood platter and scallop hamburger was amazing! Lots of room for free parking too!"
"Lovely time. Just a FYI that the menu prices have changed since the last update. Cash only. Donna is a delightful"
"My wife and I ordered the scallop burger and chips combo. The burgers were delicious, and the fries were nice and crispy. However, the highlight of the stop was chatting with Donna as she prepared our meal. The shop is right off the highway, so it's very convenient. Come by and support a local gem. Donna is old school, so I'm not sure if she will see this, but if she does, we want to say thank you so much for the meal, and we wish you all the best."
"Love the seasoned chicken wings simple and delicious. My family loves the fish will be back May times I’m sure. Highly recommend."
