Encore - Fall River

Seafood chowder was good for Nova Scotia standards (not great as photos from other reviews of Nova Scotia 's best chowders) but tasty and would recommend. Fish fry was just ok, fries and slaw: the fish was like a frozen processed deep-fried and would not recommend. The crepe chicken mushroom was good, also their quiche with salad, the red-beet salad could be recommended if they switched the beets they used to chunks not canned circles (poor presentation of cafeteria style food). Spinach salad with chicken was ok too. The chicken club with baked potato was good. The highlight of the week was their pasta marina and easily the best dish of all the above.

Restaurant is located at The Inn on The Lake. We made reservations and were seated in front of the large fireplace. A very beautiful location. The server was very attentive and friendly. The restaurant had tables closed and signs to encourage and follow COVID rules. Everything was spotless. We had nachos to start and they were very good with lots of toppings. We also had the fish and chips and a chicken wrap and fries. Both were excellent and larger that we expected. The server kindly offered a take out container for the leftovers. Sadly no room for dessert. This was our first visit and we look forward to going again.

We love to go to Inn on The Lake as a regular place to take friends and family. Food, service and atmosphere always good.

This is definitely one of those rare gems off the beaten path that is worth your time to visit. The dining room is quite warm and pleasant, and the menu offers good variety. No matter where you go in all of Atlantic Canada, you will not find a better seafood chowder. My local colleagues from Newfoundland and Nova Scotia agree; it’s the very best!

We came here for lunch the service was amazing and the food so delicious. I had the spinach salad and sandwich and soup of the day which was tasteful and beautiful presented. The apple crumble was to die for. The bread is fresh out of the oven and bake to perfection. Thank you for a amazing experience.
