Pirates Boathouse Cafe - Souris

We stopped here for lunch on a drive around the northeastern tip of PEI. What a hidden gem of a restaurant. We arrived at about 11:30 and were glad we go there early because within 30 minutes the place was packed and had about 15 additional people waiting for tables. We ordered lobster rolls. When they arrived they were chock-full of super-fresh lobster meat...about 3 claws per roll. The best lobster rolls we've ever had (we're from New England where lobster rolls are plentiful. Be aware that Google Maps directions to The Boathouse aren't the best. Google got us to the vicinity of the restaurant but we had to make a second pass to actually find the restaurant. My advice once you're in the area...follow the cars because they're probably headed for the Boathouse!

Went with my wife and 2 aunts. I started with the clam chowder. It was amazing, bar clams make a better chowder. The ladies had the spinach and feta dip. The bowl was licked clean. I had the meat loaf with mash and carrots. It was as good as mamma makes it. The ladies all had the fish sandwich with fried potatoes. They loved them. Desert was a mix of cherry cheesecake, lemon pie and a cinnamon roll with warm home made caramel sauce It was all great. James was great as was Val(the owner).

While staying next door at Sirens Beach Motel, which has a breakfast deal with the Boathouse Restaurant, I ate breakfast there four mornings and dinner three times. Would definitely recommend! Tasty food everything I tried was great but I especially loved the fish tacos (dinner) and home fries (breakfast) and super friendly service, especially by Valarie (the owner) who I chatted with each morning.

Although it’s a Simple little place, Valerie is a wonder in the kitchen and whipped up two wonderful dinners for us. I highly recommend it!

My friend and I recently enjoyed a week long vacation in PEI and stayed in the motel next door to North Lake Boathouse Harbour Eatery. We had the halibut special on the evening of our arrival in PEI and enjoyed it so much that we went back again a few days later. : This is a great place to get a delicious east coast supper no fancy stuff needed it's ALL flavour. Many locals are in and out of the restaurant a good sign, we thought! . Very reasonable prices $17.95 for a delicious halibut dinner which included homemade dessert . It is always busy here so reservations are recommended. The staff are very friendly. Two thumbs up!
