Salt Box Brewery is a gem. The staff truly make this place what it is. Every time we’ve been here, they’re personable, welcoming, and genuinely kind. It never feels rushed or transactional… it feels like coming home. The first hello to the last pour, you can tell they care, and man this makes all the difference. It’s the kind of place you can settle into, laugh a little longer, and forget about the clock. A must visit spot that never disappoints.We love each visit!

Brewery style pub in Mahone Bay. Excellent craft beer and ciders. Indoor and outdoor seating options in summer months. Even has a food truck parked outside for some yummy treats. Delicious poutine
