We had researched the Liscombe river hike and this was the 'parking lot'! This is a government-run lodge with a great reception area that sells socks, which was great news after a VERY rugged 10k hike along boggy river banks. We noticed that there was a restaurant and decided to give it a try. It's 4pm on a grey Sunday and we were the only people there. We found a perfect seat in the snug bar area that looked out over the river. The manager was a really nice man with a common interest in craft beer. The great Sober Island was there but so too were Propeller and another from Halifax. We had delicious fresh food - fish & chips and a lobster sandwich and soup. All in all it made our day complete.
