Lobster dinner
This is the real Nova Scotia seafood stop. Lobster piled high in a toasted roll, haddock fried golden and crisp, and a full lobster dinner at one of the best prices on the shore. Owner Murray runs the place like he's hosting you in his own backyard, and on weekends there's live music while you eat. No reservations, no fuss, just great food by the sea.
Tucked into West Dover just down the road from Peggy's Cove, the Food Factory is where you go when you want the famous seafood without the tour-bus lineups. It's a laid-back walk-up shack with shaded outdoor tables, fast and friendly service, and a host named Murray who'll have you feeling like a regular before your fries hit the table. Open even in the off-season when everything else has shut down, because good lobster doesn't take the winter off.
Best Fish & Chips and Lobster Roll ever and Murray was a great host!! Just down the road from Peggy's Cove, away from the crowds.
