Stopped here on a(long) detour on our way to Nova Scotia. The place was right by out motel so we decided to check it out. Good food, nice ambience, and interesting history. My favorite thing was probably the curry mustard my friend got with his fries. The scallops were pretty good too.

We stopped at The Lost Anchor after late afternoon at the beach. The upper deck was so relaxing with a nice breeze and umbrellas to shade from the evening sun. Our drinks came quickly. The bacon wrapped scallops were so good. That is saying something from a fisherman’s granddaughter, daughter & sister. We got two skewers with 3 scallops on each. There was a sauce with them. I had the root beer BBQ pulled pork on a pretzel bun and a salad without tomatoes. The flavours mixed so well. Tim got battered fish and chips. I loved the light batter, but loved my salad so much I did not even crave his fries. Great place to get good food in Cavendish. One of my summer favourites. Topped off my relaxing summer evening.

The Lost Anchor Pub and Galley is more of a restaurant than a pub — the bar has three seats and they use that small spot as a staging area. Nonetheless, we sat at the ‘bar’ because the dinning rooms was full at 6 pm on a Friday evening(for some reason they were closing early that night). They have several local brews on tap. We ordered the fish and chips and steamed mussels, both were good. The fish was lightly battered and crispy, the mussels a bit small but tasty. Would have been good to serve some toasted garlic bread with the mussels to soak up the tasty juices left in the bowl. They have a small kitchen so it takes a bit for the food to arrive especially if busy. Good find, good food, worth a try. The back deck was closed because of the bad weather but the server said they usually fill up when the weather’s nice. Prices were about average for the island.

This restaurant is steps away from the cottage I’m staying at this week. Eight of us headed in here not expecting anything special. I had the burger, and it was really good. The fries were advertised has«cut in-house» but I really doubt it: Sam’s down the street sells the exact same fry. But the service was great, the light blue paint and white wood paneling made it very airy and comfortable, and the other food(burgers, lobster rolls, onion rings) were delicious. On tap, they sell a few very good PEI beer brands to quench your thirst. Safe for families too.

On my quest to find the best lobster roll on PEI, we stopped in for lunch. Very friendly staff and the owner was very informative. We ordered the lobster roll and the Anchor burger. Both were served on a fresh made chive bun. The lobster roll was stacked! Not with just small chunks but with whole claws. It was dressed perfectly with homemade mayo and seasoned with dill and chives. This is hands down the best lobster roll I have tried! The Anchor burger was really good. On the same chive bun with their mayo. The grilled onions were perfect and had a hint of ginger. The fries were good but the potato salad was incredible. Seasoned warm potatoes on a bed of fresh greens with feta and cherry tomatoes. I cannot imagine ever coming to PEI and not visiting this restaurant!
