  We have been here quite a few times so I thought to give review. The food here is great!!! They have over 20 beers on tap for those who like beer. Bangers and mash, pot pie, fish and chips, scallops and chips, wings everything has been great. Service is excellent, love the timbers and ship decore. There was a line up today but got in within 10 minutes and note a seat open. On sunny day sit outside for the view if the harbor. We'll worth the time to drive here.

  We visited the Mug & Anchor Pub during our stay in Mahone Bay and ended up coming back multiple times because it was just that good. Our first night, the fish and chips were absolutely out of this world. The piece of fish was ginormous, perfectly cooked, and paired with a cold draft it made for the perfect meal. The live music that night created such a warm and welcoming atmosphere. It truly set the tone for our stay in Mahone Bay. On our second visit, we tried the prawn dip and wings, again with cold drafts, and everything was just as delicious. The consistency in both food and service really stood out. Our last night was a bit of a scramble. It was Sunday, pouring rain, and we realized too late that most places had closed early. Not wanting to travel in the torrential downpour, we headed back across the street to the Mug & Anchor. Although the kitchen had officially closed, Evan went out of his way to make arrangements so we could take out their haddock chowder. We brought it back to our inn, heated it up, and it was exactly what we needed. That level of kindness and effort did not go unnoticed. Evan, along with the entire staff and kitchen team, made us feel genuinely welcomed and important. It is rare to find that kind of service, and it made a lasting impression on our trip. Highly recommend for both the food and the people. Picture of what supper was going to be and a picture with Evan and us well after the restaurant was closed

  If you're looking for a pub on an inlet this is the place to go. Make sure to head out to the back deck so you can watch the boats come and go just a couple hundred feet away. The food was great pub fare and the service was friendly and fast!
