Reviews of The Lost Anchor (Fish Shop)

Shaun Nie

Nice restaurant and staff was friendly, just waiting time a little bit long

Chris and Crystal Cavanagh

Great food and excellent service

Scott Hayward

We have visited this place twice on our current trip to Cavendish. The scallops and seafood chowder are amazing. Our daughter had the burger and fries and loved it. The servers were very friendly and attentive. I would recommend this place for lunch or dinner.

Lindsay Carter

Had a reservation for 6pm for 5 of us...2 adults, 3 kids. We ordered the caesar salad, 2 lobster mac and cheese ( 2 kids splitting) and orders 2 fish and chips. We got our drinks and salad promptly which was great. We sat there waiting a good hour for our dinner...kids getting antsy and starving. We questioned the server and he said there was problem in the kitchen with our order and he will go make sure it goes through now. He said he's the manager and he will take care of things and make things right. Our food eventually came out and it was great! Not sure what happened...maybe we were forgotten because every table that arrived after us had eaten and were leaving. Anyways, he took care of our drinks and part of the bill, gave the kids free desserts. The food was great and we would have given 5 starts if it wasn't for how long it took to get it. Every bit of food was eaten because we were so hungry.

Matthew Trask

Amazing fish tacos and friendly staff!!!

Anna O.

Good tasty food, reasonable prices, great deco.

Shannon Svenson

Staff was friendly and service was good. We had fish and chips and a kid's cheeseburger meal. Portion sizes were good, the fresh cut fries were great. I would be happy to go back again.

Paul Arscott

Terrible service. ..stopped for a couple drinks on the patio. It wasn't busy and they had plenty of staff but the service was terrible. They forgot our order entirely and never came to check on us after 30 minutes. Avoid!...Should be called the "Lost Order"

Stuart Smith

Good variety of entrees, ranging from traditional fish and chips to falafel wraps, and Greek salads etc. Good sized portions that are well-priced.

Annasara Geva (Nana)

Great fish and chips. Potatoes are to die for.

Gerry Lawless

burrito bowl is 10/10

Burns Anderson

Good food and staff

Adrian Johnson

The best chowder on the island. Thick and creamy.

Dean Holmes

Fantastic food here! My wife has the lobster roll and I had fish tacos. The lobster roll was huge! She said it was the best she's ever had. My fish tacos were delicious and their fries are oh so good. Great service too!

Helen T (Helen)

I believed some positive reviews here to come to Lost Anchor, hoping that it would be not that bad. But after an hour waiting for foods - from 7.30pm to 8.30pm, I have to say, never come back again. Scallops were fresh but just so so, asparagus was tough,not as what I read in previous comments that "delicious". Burger & chips all got cold they were delivered to our table. We had chips at Richard's in the afternoon and it was cripsy and way much much better. Ingredients were pretty fresh but chowder was rather bland to our taste. We had chowders in other seafood restaurants in Atlantic and no place is better than Alma - NB. All over all 1*.

Marv Red

Relaxing dining experience, the inviting decor and friendly staff set the tone for the enjoyment of the meal. We shared the Caesar Salad, then we enjoyed the Fish and Chips with the Chunky Mountain Chocolate Cake to finish off the meal. The portions are large and tasty. Recommend to call and make a reservation!!

Adam Martinez

The best lobster roll, of the many we had on our trip to PEI.

Kyle McNamara

Great quality, tasty food, good service, nice ambience, and affordable. Well worth it. The seafood flatbread was excellent!

chad stewart

Good food at at fair price, but was kinda small and loud.

Chris Settle

The fish tacos and sweet potato fries were great and the waitress was very friendly. The only downside was the long wait for our food, however we were a large group (8) so that was somewhat expected

Gord MacCollum

Great burger, a must try. Fabulous server. A nice quaint place.

Inn the Woods Cottages

Great spot for a delicious meal!

Chris Gallinger

Extremely clean and inviting, had the burrito bowl and fried chicken sandwich and both were delicious with extra spicy mayo!

Jason Keeping

Delicious

Jeff Doepker

Excellent food priced appropriately and matched with excellent service!

(Translated) Small, friendly restaurant serving seafood and burger. Very close to the beach in Cavendish Park (Original) Petit restaurant sympathique servant fruits de mers et burger. Très proche de la plage du parc Cavendish

David Miljour

(Translated) Excellent little restaurant in downtown Cavendish mixing burger and seafood. The burger Anchor is excellent. Good price also with a choice of several meals between $ 13 and $ 16. (August 2016) Fast and friendly service. Beautiful dining room. (Original) Excellent petit restaurant au centre-ville de Cavendish mariant burger et fruits de mer. Le burger Anchor est excellent.

nancy anderson

Excellent food, wonderful customer service and a great beer selection (local).

Peggianne Wright

Fabulous food and excellent service!

KAREN JOHNSTON

Burger love was great ????

Ashish Mahajan

We went there after seeing good ratings online. We were dying to have the last Lobster rolls we could have before leaving PEI. The ambience of the interior has been done very tastefully. Service was slow/poor. It took them a lot of time to even get us water or beers. We waited for 50 minutes and since we were getting late to go back to Halifax, decided to take all the lobster rolls as take out. When we ate them, enroute, there was no consistency in the food. 2 rolls were extremely dry and 2 of them were so salty that we couldn't possibly eat them. The only thing that saved us that night was the side salad. It could have been a busy day or bad day for the kitchen, but certainly not that I would expect after spending so much money on supper. When you pay so much, you expect quality and consistency.

Mumia Dutta

Beautiful ambiance, super friendly and efficient servers ... not to mention lip smacking food.

Ciaran Dunn

Good food,let and atmosphere

Nagapradeep Chinnapalli

Awesome food. Chowder was just amazing!

Clothilde Petitjean

(Translated) The staff were so dynamic and friendly that I would have liked to put it 5 stars, but that wouldn't be fair for the quality of the food at the other restaurants we visited. I have to say that the fish and chips were passable and they unfortunately ran out of lobster ????. The interior is cute though. (Original) Le personnel était si dynamique et si sympathique que j'aurais voulu mettre 5 étoiles, mais ce ne serait pas juste pour la qualité de la nourriture des autres restaurants que nous avons visité. Je dois dire que le fish and chips était passable et qu'ils étaient malheureusement à court de homard ????. L'intérieur est mignon par contre.

Clay Ober

Delicious food, friendly staff! Thank you

Jonathan Gaudet

Great food and servers are excellent!

dana campbell

Excellent food and service !!

Cole Kash

The food here was Very good! The Atmosphere is great, it's got a smaller interior dining area and many great outdoor patio seating on a nice day. This is the best spot to eat when in the avonlea museum area if you're looking for a quick bite, or some of their amazing lobster rolls.

Todd Huntley

Was good. Upstairs patio was closed due to hornets nest, which was weird since normally you would just get rid of it. Fish and chips were great as was the curry mayo dip!

Paul Butler

Food was delicious, but it took a ridiculously long time to arrive.

Ross Whiteford

Fresh fish & chips, cold beers and great service from Kayley! A gem in the Cavendish resort area.

Sonia Hébert

(Translated) The biggest fish and chips I have eaten and super good. to recommend (Original) Le plus gros fish and chips que j'ai mangé et super bon . à recommander

Francois Simard

Amazing seafood and great ambiance!

Joy Hoskin

Excellent friendly service. The food was fantastic. Loved the batter on the fish. Large servings.

Chris Dalziel

Great family atmosphere. Good was fantastic!

Rod Perron

Nice patio deck (upper and lower), friendly service, great beer on tap and delicious cocktails. Food was prepared quickly and delivered hot (sweet potato fries were exceptional), regular fries as well. Gnocchi dish was unbelievably good and not expensive at all, fish tacos were great, grill cheese lobster sandwich was a hit as well and I enjoyed the burrito bowl very much.

Davinder Bains

Nice ambiance. High quality food. Friendly service.

Justine Tessier

Fried chicken sandwich was bomb, my partner was underwhelmed by the lobster mac n cheese. Patio was nice, service was good.

OPapa Bless

Amazing place to come and have a good bite.

Brenda Kerezsi

Great food...staff was great ....even though they don't post it they have gluten free options

Rob G

The food is good for the price. We were somewhat surprised at how long our apps took to come out and after our food was served we never saw our server again for water refills until we were finished eating. Not a deal breaker, just minor frustrations. All in all, it's worth a stop if you're hungry and in the area. Very kid-friendly. Nice lower and upper patio areas! The inside is small so I would imagine it would be hard to get a seat on a rainy (non-patio) day.

Crypto Kid

Stopped in for seafood chowder lobster and fish and chips. We were not disappointed, the food was spectacular. Oh and the beer was cold and tasty.

Zach Dickerson

We saw this restaurant coming in to town and knew we had to try it- we weren't disappointed! The fish tacos were delicious, and others in my group loved their fish and chips. PEI fries are truly something else, I usually try to get a vegetable for a side but these were worth the dietary detour. The legend of the lost anchor painted on the wall was really neat as well. We stayed in Cavendish for several days and this was by far my favorite place to eat.

Jonathan Levy

Good food and even better service!

Elvis Freitas

Best fish and chips!

Sandi Hood

Stopped on a whim and glad we did! Service was awesome and the food delicious.

Ramya C

Best fish and chips I’ve ever had! Service was fast and employees were very friendly

Eric Wong

Servers are whom you would ask for - helpful and patient. Scallop burger was a hit with us and seafood pizza was stuffed with shrimp, lobster, bacon and scallop meat. Fries are not overly done and meaty. Will return and recommend.

Jason Freake

Light/crispy fish batter, delicious fresh cut fries, mild but great tasting tarter sauce , reasonable price and friendly staff.

LANMAC

We found it

Angel MacEachern

I had the Seafood chowder and then the burrito bowl with Korean beef. The service was amazing. The kiddos loved it. They had chicken fingers and assorted fries with various dips...that we all enjoyed. My husband had a blue cheese iceberg salad and the burrito bowl with chicken. Great time, great food and great atmosphere.

Mike Pougnet

Best fish and chips ever

Landon Pigg

Some of the best food I've ever had

Mark Grant

Excellent food, and very friendly service. Would recommend this place highly. Excellent lemon basil sauce for their clams.

Tarun Kumar

Food was very good and the best lobster roll i ever had. The service was very good.

Kristina Woikin

Best meal and service I've had in years!!! Love the fish and chips!

St W

Potato salad was good but the expensive lobster roll was extremely salty. It made the sandwich inedible and could only have a third of the sandwich before all I could taste was salt.

Pamela Hewey

Awesome food !!! friendly, efficent, fast service.

HENRY PARKER

terrible place DO NOT GO HERE

paul bernard

Excellent fish and chips , great atmosphere, lovely people . Highly recommend. Our group realy enjoyed it

R. Gill

What a find food is excellent, mussels to die for, great fish tacos, fish and chips perfectly cooked. Definitely want to go back.

Aylin Akşen

It takes to much time. Not worth it..

Chris Gunter

Hot inside, food was good, service was ok.

Kaitlyn Julien

Service was good, atmosphere is nice, but the food is way over priced. We payed 20 bucks for fish and chips..for that I'd expect something fancy but it was just ..fish and chips. Better off going to a hole in the wall type diner if you want good seafood and not to break the bank! Won't be back due to prices and food not matching quality of price .. mussels were extrenly tiny as well ????

Jeff Kaluski

Great food, great staff

Karl Miranda

Very pub like food menu. But, it is absobloodylutely delicious! Pictures are of steamed PEI mussels and the pork belly tacos.

Don Harris

Fish was overcooked. Otherwise OK. Portions were a good size.

Emerald Meadows

This was pretty bad. How do you mess up bacon and eggs? Serve them cold in a restaurant that you have to wear a coat because they are too cheap to turn on the heat. Time to convert this baby into a Anne of Green Gables Gift Shop.

Dominique Boisvert

(Translated) Impeccable service, great food and very clean !! (Original) Service impeccable, bouffe super bonne et très propre!!

Chris McGuire

Great lobster rolls

Alexander Leduc

I had the bbq wings and the sauce was kind of acidic but other than that it was good, the waiter was really nice and the food took a long time to come out.

Trevor Fillmore

I gave this place a 5 star because the food was great probably one of the best burgers i've ever had but as good as the food was the service was even better i forgot the waiter's name but he was a tall guy and was great with my wife and I and awesome with my 5 year old the best server ive ever seen with kids.

B. A.

So good! The red pepper dip is amazing!

Caro L

There was an alive bug in my salad unfortunately...

J Stark

Wow! We weren't expecting much, since they don't have a website and they're in a touristy part of Cavendish, but we were blown away. Amazing service, fresh and well-prepared food, and a great atmosphere. Try the cocktails, lovingly prepared by proprietor Andy.

Pascal Garneau

(Translated) Meal arrived very late and menu not very elaborate. They nevertheless gave us a discount to apologize for the delay and I was pleasantly surprised that the waitress spoke French. (Original) Repas arrivé avec beaucoup de retard et menu peu élaboré. Ils nous ont néanmoins donné un rabais pour s'excuser du retard et j'ai été agréablement surpris que la serveuse parle français.

Marky Mark

Awesome artisan burgers, and some great history on the walls!

Rebecca Hogan

The food was amazing and the waitresses we're very friendly despite the restaurant being fully booked.

Kerri Ann Macquarrie

Ate here tonight after a full day at the waterpark. Had a nice table on the upper deck. Delicious Sangria. Ordered a bunch of items: mussels, crab cakes, scallops, fried chicken sandwich, kids burgers, kids chicken fingers, lobster fritters and a captains burger (there were 10 of us lol). The mussels were amazing. My husband said his fried chicken sandwich was delicious. My son asked for a second order of chicken fingers they were so good. A friend had the burger and said it was "burger love" material. But I ordered the fried lobster tail and waffles with butter rum sauce. Holy cow what a huge plate! So delicious! Piping hot, savory and sweet. Yumm yumm. Service was great, they were super friendly right from the hostess to the server. Food came out within a reasonable time frame. Would go back in a heartbeat! Well done Mandy and Jason!

Shankar Nagendra

Great food and very accommodating staff. Great service

Norman Davie

You have to try the burger love. Remember to make a reservation or you'll be put of luck for seating

Tim Stankovic

Out of a lot of menu items

Kelsey Stephenson

Cutest restaurant. Food is great!

Alexandra Mootoosamy

Good food and good service!

Dave Bond

Stopped in with my family and the staff were just so nice and accommodating - even helping calm a crying baby so my wife and I could eat a meal together. The PEI potato salad and scallop burger were fresh and awesome - and the buoys for dessert were dynamite. Great spot!

Dave Steinberg

The fish and chips is delicious! Lovely patio for a summer day.

Caroline Méthot

(Translated) What a great discovery during our visit to Cavendish !!! Everything was VERY good???? Super dynamic and caring employees. They brilliantly relocated all the guests from the terrace to the interior during a downpour. (Original) Quelle belle découverte lors de notre passage à Cavendish!!! Tout était TRÈS bon???? Employées super dynamiques et attentionnées. Elles ont avec brio relocalisé tous les clients de la terrasse à l'intérieur lors d'un déluge.

Viv McN

Deliciousness in every bite! I wish I’d eaten all our meals here so I could have tried everything on the menu.

Sina Skates

Cash or debit only. The food was really great!

Francois Jacques

(Translated) 45 minutes to eat is not acceptable. (Original) 45 minutes pour manger n’est pas acceptable.

jacqueline merrill

Mussels were excellent

Maddie Murphy

I can’t eat any fish or seafood, but my family really enjoys the local seafood so we decided to try out the Lost Anchor. The food was AMAZING to say the least. A restaurant that has a small menu, but can master both fish options and non-fish/vegetarians is a sign of a great restaurant and the Lost Anchor nails it!! Also a shout out to the phenomenal staff, I couldn’t rave more about this restaurant

Erin Vieira

Great atmosphere and pretty good vegan options.

Michael Dunn

Not too fancy but they have good quality food and a pleasant atmosphere as well as a great location.

Eric Aguayo

The food was really good but it took about hour and half to be served, kids were compensated with beverages and deserts. If it weren't by the time it took I would give 5 stars.

Leslie L

Good sweet potato fries and lots of seafood in the chowder. Lobster roll was just okay

Michel Boisclair

(Translated) So fresh lobster he pinches you. (Original) Homard tellement frais il vous pince.

Hillary Chouinard

Had a great meal at The Lost Anchor this weekend. We made a reservation on line and when I inquired in the notes part about my daughter being vegetarian and could anything be modified they were quick to respond and be helpful. She had lobster gnocchi without the lobster and we all agreed it was the BEST gnocchi we had ever had. All of the food was great- mussels, fish 'n chips, and the Greek salad was delicious. The portions were big, but not overwhelmingly huge. Staff were friendly and the atmosphere great. We will be back for more gnocchi and fish tacos next time we are in Cavendish!

Marcello D'Onofrio

Great place for lunch. Good was great. Friendly service

Brittany Thomson

Great atmosphere and fantastic staff

Kyle Bonnar

Food was top tier, scallops were delicious, and the cocktails were great. If your heading there for supper, make a reservation in the morning or there's a good chance you won't make it in. It's worth every penny. Staff was very friendly and the top patio was nice to enjoy on a sunny day.

Bart Grover

Had supper here recently while on a photography workshop. Lobster roll was excellent and service was fast. We were there early so had a prime spot upstairs on the balcony, there was a lineup when we left so suggested you don't arrive in a large group right at supper. I would definitely go back if I was in the area.

A. Morrison

I'm sure that it was just an unfortunate string of events, and not a true testimate of their usual quality. The restaurant has no blinds, so the evening sun beats in there making it really hot. The sun made sitting in certain spots tough because the sun shone directly in your eyes. The food took an hour to get to us. And then there was the baby that screamed for all of our meal. Not their fault, but it meant I left much earlier than I might have. Fortunately the manager took notice and discounted our bill without being promoted.

Norm Platt

We had fish and chips and an appetizer of mussels. Simple Island food done well. Located in Cavendish at the intersection going into National park. Takes only debit or cash. Good service.

Drew Vai

Great food and service.

Kevin Nguyen

Super slow service. We've been waiting for more than 45 min and counting. We feel lost here

Tyler Morrison

The burger was great!

Manny Peters

Good food, nice atmosphere, and waitstaff were nice.

Alina Silvestrovici Paun

Beautiful patio and excellent service. The seafood appetizers platter was excellent (along with fries four ways). Mains were a bit underwhelming after the appetizers but still tasty.

Kelli Skinner

Excellent service and great food.

Dan Rocha

really enjoyed the burger. service was great.

Maxine Boulianne

Just go there.

Patrick Gagnon

(Translated) The fries and the fish and ship were delicious ... Mmmm (Original) Les frites et le fish and ship étaient délicieux... Mmmm

Karen Gallant

Excellent service

Island Gal71

Definitely do not recommend. We witnessed a man that worked there (assuming the manager) screaming at 2 young staff members. He was out of control and we couldn't believe he actually behaved like that in front of us. I will never support this place again. The one star rating is only because it was clean.

David Dunn

Great atmosphere, very friendly staff. My wife ordered the fish and chips, I ordered the fish tacos, and we ordered mac and cheese from the kids menu for our 2 year old son. The food was amazing, but the mac and cheese was literally THE best mac and cheese I have ever tasted. Would highly recommend!

Cassandra Ma

Service was super slow and the food was lackluster

Julian Kancko

Food was absolutely delicious. Cozy spot with great outdoor seating too!

Pug Traveller

Great lobster supper with seafood chowder and unlimited salad bar! Had to wait for mussels but they do their best to keep up. Wait staff was very friendly and attentive. Handicapped washroom not wide enough and needs to be rectified. Witnessed lady having difficulties with wherlchair and had to get assistance. Cute gift shop attached.

Levi Sommerville

The ambience was lovely. On the balcony watching the sunset. The food was excellent. All 3 courses. The service was top tier. The drinks were pretty darn good too. One of the best restaurant experiences I've had. Told them I'll be back and I definitely will be.

Steve Muise

Expensive and soured my tummy afterwards.

Linda Kubusch

Good food, reasonably priced

Olivia Stewart

They DON’T have lobster poutine!!! The staff was friendly while we were inquiring, though. Good location, right on the main strip.

Stephane Duplessis

Food was delicious and the atmosphere was great. Nice little cozy spot.

Julia Udalych

Loved the food! Thank you Jenna for great service!

ryan west

Sweet potato fries were fantastic The seafood flatbread was phenominel..fenomenal..was awesome. I would definitely recommend this place.

Megan L

Wonderful little restaurant in Cavendish. The fries were so good, my boyfriend ended up ordering another basket. The batter for their fish and chips is phenomenal. I ordered the fish cakes and they were really good. Over all it was a fantastic meal, were planning on making another stop here to try some more dishes.

Paul Gilmore

Super fish and chips! Fish Tacos too!

Laura Cenne (SecretlySith)

Great portion size. Service was friendly and attentive and the food was fresh and delicious.

Marjory Booth

God food at a decent price with great service from Morgan C

Robin Kay

Friendly greeting but Incredibly slow - waited 55 minutes for our food (for 3 people). Server was missing in action much of the time. Offered to get me some more water and never returned. We were there for almost 2 hours, mostly waiting for service. They seemed confused and perhaps understaffed. Food was okay. My lightly battered fish and chips was thickly battered and quite oily. Tasty but I paid for it after. Falafel was mushy, but the lobster was good. Potato salad received mixed reviews.

Mike Lonergan

I now live on the Island, relocated here from Ontario. Eating out is one of of our favourite things to do while continuing to explore PEI. The Lost Anchor consistently delivers. My review is long overdo. So many restaurants are good for a couple of years then ownership tend to coast on their short lived popular reputation. That’s the recipe for failure as a reputation can sour in far less time than it takes to build a good one; (example Blue Mussel Cafe North Rustico.) My family had dinner again last night at The Lost Anchor and as usual our experience was outstanding. I keep trying new items because everything Ive had in the past exceeded my expectations. The Blues Burger May have been the best burger I’ve ever had. The fries were the best I’ve had in any restaurant. If you like New York Fries, you’ll love these. I have always thought they have the best Lobster Roll out there. Each time I order it comes with two large meaty claws sticking up and out of the meat mixture. I tend to eat with my eyes first (don’t we all?) In a year where many cooks, chefs and service employees have left the industry due to foodservice closings (COVID), the Lost Anchor hasn’t missed a beat. Congratulations to the ownership and crew!!! Mike, North Rustico PE

Doreen Navarro

Stopped into this gem for a late lunch. Best fish tacos ever! The fish and chips we also great. We also had the mussels and crab cakes. Also delicious! You have to eat here! Very friendly staff as well.

Dustin Gillett

Such a refreshing change from the typical Cavendish restaurants. The place is clean and has a great atmosphere. The food is awesome, highly recommend the potato salad, it's not what you are expecting but it is delicious all the same.

Finn Murphy

Really good food but the service wasn't very good because it was busy and no one came by our table for over an hour.

Mike Sider

Food was really good. Pleasantly surprised

Lissette Lemus

The ambience is nice the staff is kind and the food is scrumptious

Don Andrews

Friendly staff and great food. Environment was a little cold, some decor needed to warm the place.

Jenna Thompson

Great food and even better service!

Adam De Roose

Awesome food!

Paul Caron

The seafood chowder is delicious. Lots of chunks of fish mussel lobster. The french fries are amazing. What is their secret?

Genevieve Brownlow

Went two nights In a row. Great spot. Great pricing. Wonderful staff. Delicious food. Awesome atmosphere.

Megan Allain

I had the lobster gnocchi - I was beyond impressed. Big chunks of fresh lobster, incredibly flavorful, and fluffy gnocchi in a cream sauce with ricotta... Delicious! I'll definitely be coming back, and highly recommend The Lost Anchor to anyone who comes to Cavendish!

George Ryckman

Great food, great service, reasonable price. Would go again.

Terry MacCormac

Fried chicken was awesome!

Chrystal Bagatin

Great food and good service. Went three times in our 4 day stay...only wish was the washrooms were cleaner but they are shared with the building so not only the restaurants responsibility. We will be back next summer!

deb murray

Delicious. Love the atmosphere and the story of the lost anchor was really neat.

Sebastien Murray

(Translated) Best fish and chips and Lobster roll. (Original) Meilleures fish and chips et Lobster roll.

Tammy Ball

Had the burger love. It was delicious!! Also had the caramel apple cheese cake that was awesome too

Sue Morrison

Mandy, the owner was amazing. Service was impeccable and she couldn’t have made us feel more welcome. My husband and I recently moved to PEI from Ontario and had our son, daughter-in-law and two youngest grandkids visiting us. We went to The Lost Anchor and were so impressed that we will drive from our home in Summerside to Cavendish just to go there in the future.

Carmelle Poirier

(Translated) Super good ! (Original) Super bon !

David R

Food was decent and server was polite. Kitchen service took 35 minutes from the time of order to make 2 sandwiches with fries even though only 3 other tables were present. No checkins from server for kitchen delay updates. Tiny bit of mist kept the upper patio closed so the wait for food was more unbearable since inside is quite echo-y.

Joanie Mitchell

Nice clothes but expensive.

Michael Wadham

Very good chower

Mary C

Pretty good food. Can't go wrong with lobster roll!

nathalie ouellet

(Translated) Grilled lobster tail with waffles. The waffles were excellent with the very sweet sauce but the lobster was overcooked. (Original) Queue de homard grillé avec gaufres. Les gaufres étaient excellentes avec la sauce très sucré mais le homard était trop cuit.

annik macleod

Great meal! Would go again if we had more time.

Fredericton Mom

We went as a family of 4 (2 adults, 17 year old and 7 year old) There was something for everyone. Everyone loved their food. The Fish Tacos, Burrito bowl and Chicken sandwich are amazing. We loved it so much we went back again the next night LOL. Also, try the Cavy Breeze drink. Yum!

Jordan Beck

Service was great. Got seated and got our food quickly, with friendly staff. Ordered fish and chips. Pretty good, but didn’t blow me away. Would recommend.

Mary C.

Delish fish & chips - automatic 2 pcs. of haddock unless you request 1 pc.

Andrew Guidolin

Very cool little place to eat. Fresh take on fresh food.

Daryl Behm

Good food great service burgers were great beef and fish would definitely come again on next trip

Michael Commisso

Best lobster roll on the island. Great service to boot

Kendall Scott

Delicious food and welcoming environment.

James Weeks

Incredible food and great, relaxed service despite the covid precautions

Anthony Vriends

TINY portion sizes. Paid $27 for a beer and burrito bowl, had to get a sandwich from Tim Horton's after my meal. Portion looked like it was from the kids menu. Total rip off.

C MACE

Attended The Lost Anchor with friends from PEI, it was our first time there. The restaurant is super bright with a lot of windows. The decor is great. The staff were super friendly and positive. The food was great! They have a great kids menu as well. We will definitely be back!

Pauline Pineau

The food was amazing!

Dominic Aube

Really disappointed. Made a reservation at 7pm and they gave the table to someone else. No way we could find another descent place to eat at that time.

Jason Rolfe

This is one of the best places I have eaten in for a while now. Food was excellent, and service was fantastic! we ate at the beach house the day before and the service there was terrible and the food was just OK. They could learn a lot from The Lost Anchor! Way to raise the standard of how it should be!!!

Josiah Brown

I am not sure what the food was like as my family and I was not able to eat there because the waiting time was 1hour long.

Janet Seidel

Big pieces of fish but so greasy the fish was dripping grease on the table

Glen Thompson

Great food and outstanding staff. One of my favourite eating spots on the island. The location isn't the best but it does have lots of parking and a nice upstairs patio.

Alexandre Cousineau

(Translated) Nice good nice finally a lobsterroll not in a cheap bread (Original) Beau bon sympa enfin un lobsterroll pas dans un pain cheap

Jen Luter

The food was delicious but the kitchen was behind so we waited an hour from order time to food.

Danielle Schyle

Outstanding food. And very friendly staff. They even brought us warm blankets for the terrasse.

Deb MacDonald

Had a wonderful evening at the Lost Anchor in Cavendish...our server Alena was lovely...pleasant and efficient. The food was excellent.. can’t wait to go back...hopefully next time the sun will be out and we can enjoy the beautiful deck.Definitely a 5 *plus

James White

Sterile atmosphere , mussels were very small inside shell, wings were large and I would rate them OK.

Jenn Baker

Excellent clam chowder and great service highly recommend

Claude Lachance

(Translated) Good fast service Love me for the plate. Not much in it ???? (Original) Bon service rapide M'ait chère pour l assiette .pas grand chose dedans ????

Kelly RH

Nice lunch. Great patio. Hard to find. But find it !!

Eric Feng

One of the waiter seemed a little impatient, but the scallop burger is good, so is the beer.

Denis Bourgoin

sangria pitcher is worth it

amanda mckenna

They even gave us warm blankets to wrap up in when sitting on the deck on a cool evening. The food was delicious my kids can be picky eaters but they loved their fish and chips. The pork belly tacos were able to be lettuce wrapped! Definitely would go again!

Lori Phinney

Great experience! We were able to reserve a table and had prompt lovely service. Our food came out timely and was amazing - our family got the lobster, risotto and breaded scallops which we would recommend.

Caleb Zimmerman

Had the lobster mac and cheese, wife had the fish and chips and kid had kids mac and cheese. It was all amazing. The fish and chips on the menu is two large pieces but they have a 1 piece option not on the menu.

The Food was Awesome, our server was awesome. The kitchen was not awesome. excessivly long wait for food (45min-1hr). if your going in the evening I recommend inside vs the patios or going before the sun goes down as the mosquito's were awful.

Agustina Alcantara

Food is ok. Service was good. This is a busy place but not recommend it if you want quality food.

Kate Patterson

Restaurant was open but the door was stuck. Waste of time.

Mike Kearley

Charlii Lohnes

Clean place cool patio. A bit slow on the service but otherwise good.

Lori Logue

Staff was friendly, food was pretty good ( sweet potatoes fries were really good). But our table was dirty and never wiped. Also our wait was unreasonably long for a party of 5 ordering pub food. I am not sure the issue, they were apologetic, but we were there for an hour and 40 minutes just for wraps/ clams and fries. I would go again, we may have just caught a bad time.

Nancy M

The waitress seemed nervous but understood I think they just opened a little bit ago but the cooks/chef was dead on the BEST FISH TOCOS I have ever had I would definitely go back just for them alone

Marcia Doucette

Worst experience ever in a restaurant! Terrible service. First our soup was given to another table. (That person ate it!) We kept waiting..no soup...asked the waiter where our soup was? Waited another 15 minutes.. finally got our soup...cold!!! Sent that back...still waiting for our food...2 other tables came in 30 minutes after us...guess what?? They got their food and we are still waiting for ours!!!!! Just terrible service..never again...Ended up leaving with no food!!

Delicious burger with feta cheese

Jessica

We had lunch here yesterday, we shared an order of mussels, crab cakes and the chowder. All three were delicious. We were able to sit on their patio with our small puppy and my husband tried the Blueberry Ale. Our server was friendly and service was prompt and hospitable. Would recommend for anyone looking for a nice place to eat in Cavendish.

Michael Negus

Friendly staff and great food.

My family and i ate there last night for supper. Nice place clean, service was good quick staff pleasant. Our orders came quickly. My daughter and wife had the seafood chowder and both loved it. My som had the cheese burger and fries and enjoyed it as well i had the 2 peice fush and chips it was very goid with home made tarter sauce and coleslaw i woukd recommend this restaurant. Friendly staff great food.

Holly Singer

Nice atmosphere except there are no blinds for the windows and the sun makes it very hot and uncomfortable while waiting and eating. Ordered the "large" seafood chowder, which I only found one piece of potato in. Seeing as this restaurant is in PEI I figured it would be a little more hardy. Chowder came and was disappointing. Paid $13 for maybe a cup. Had it been exceptional I would have gladly paid that amount, but it was just an average chowder. Fiancè ordered fish and chips and the batter seemed to be burnt. Also the fish inside was chewy and unappetizing. Our server was polite. Overall, too expensive for quality and quantity. We won't be back.

Volodymyr Palagniuk

We had hard time looking for a place to eat after watching the sunset because almost every restaurant was closed at 8-9 pm. But this place works longer and delivers tasty meals with friendly service.

Ryan Harcourt

Absolutely amazing everything was perfect

Karen Looby

The seafood chowder was the best I have ever eaten. Creamy and full of chunks of potato, lobster, fish and mussels, with just the right amount of seasoning. The roll that came with it was disappointing though- just the same Swiss Chalet serves. Our server was friendly and helpful.

Bonnie Comeau

We loved this place ! Great staff and great food !

Robert Kelly

Not a great expierence

David Siksik

Best fish and chips I had in Cavendish.

Stephanie Braun

Delicious food, my favorite in Cavendish. The scallop burger, the kale salad and the bouys were so good I came back for a second and third time during my stay. Not to mention the great service!

Dan Cormier

Fun pub

Ashley McGuigan

The Lost Anchor truly exceeded my expectations!! The fish and chips was the best I’ve ever had, the homemade tarter sauce was absolutely delicious. The pei blueberry beer is a must try on the beautiful top deck. Our waitress Sophie was friendly and very knowledgeable! This is a must stop in Cavendish!

Lennon Dow

Walked out after 20 minutes with no service

Chris Dorion

Great restaurant! Friendly staff but smaller portion sizes

Leonard Furtado

Great service. Scallop burger was really good. Not fried.

Michael McRae

We booked with you as we heard lots of lovely things. We called to ask if it would be ok to bring our dog, and you said yes. But the most gracious part was how you greeted our dog Beckett when we arrived. With smiles, rubs, a water bowl and treats. Very grateful for your kindness. Thank you!!!!!

Kevin McCulloch

Lovely place food was great and particularly liked the amazing service and bubbly personality of our server Mandy

Chris Connolly

Excellent quality food! Reasonable prices and superior service! Well done all around, highly recommended.

Iain Cudmore

Restaurant lost my parties reservation, server didnt come back for 50 minutes and also took an hour and fifteen minutes to bring us our food. Some of my parties food was cool and honestly, was just standard pub food. Others who came in after us were served before us. Not a great experience.

Jecci Vossar

Very child friendly and overall good and friendly service! No problem that for our 5 year old son we didn't order a whole dish. Enjoyed it sitting outside.

(Translated) Good restaurant. The Lobster Roll is excellent. Try it with sweet potato fries. However, there are not enough vegetables in children's dishes. (Original) Bon restaurant. Le Lobster Roll est excellent. À essayer avec les frites de patates douces. Par contre, il n'y a pas assez de légumes dans les plats pour enfants.

John Butler

Fantastic!

Melanie Yu

Food was SUPER FRESH and the flavours were amazing. Reasonably priced, friendly staff, albeit a slight wait for the waitress to come around but very worthwhile. Portion sizes are satisfying and the ambiance is very comfortable, though I wouldn't mind a bit more lobster in the mac and cheese. Definitely worth the visit and would not mind coming back, especially since it's in a decent location with activities nearby too.
