Review The South Shore Fish Shack - Lunenburg

At 11:30 a.m. we were looking for a place to have lunch at Lunenberg. Most of the restaurants open at twelve noon, luckily we found the Fish Shack. We ordered Haddock Chowder, Lobster Bun with Hand Cut Fries, Steamed Lobster served with coleslaw, lemon butter, potato salad and half a cob of corn. Lobster was really fresh, steamed  perfectly and tasted so good. The chowder and lobster bun tasted alright. There's a good view of the dock in indoor seating though one has to go downstairs and bring the food ordered and paid for in the counter. They also have a patio for outdoor seating. The fresh lobster is priced by the pound so expect to pay more depending on its weight/size.

We stopped by The South Shore Fish Shack for a late lunch / early dinner during our visit to Lunenburg. It was a little busy but, we were seated right away. The weather wasn’t great but, we still enjoyed sitting outside. We had a few beers and ordered their LOBSTER BUN, FISH & CHIPS and DIGBY CLAMS. The portions were massive and the food was very fresh and tasty.

Great service, fantastic views of the harbour, tasty reasonably priced food. Scallop pasta was tasty, half tower is cold seafood of yummy oysters and clams, good lobster and snow crab.

I didn't mind the wait and I'll own up to ordering a hamburger at a fish place but it's small size was sheer lunacy. I placed the take out plastic container over the burger for size comparison and you can not see the burger under it. I went back to the window to ask if indeed this was the normal size burger and was told yes. And it was really over cooked and dry.

This place was great - I mean, depends on what you're looking for, saw a few reviews of people disappointed by the burger or the fact that deep fried fish is greasy, but if you want good, reasonably priced seafood, served fresh with nice staff, easy seating and a nice view, go here. Between our group had the fish and chips, scallops and lobster bun and they were all great. It's like fresh take out with a nice place to sit - I'd go back, and definitely recommend.

overall was really good, service was quick besides it being a hot summer day. the food was fresh, took the lobster buns which had a generous amount of lobster inside as well as the fish sticks, where one was MORE than enough (actual size of a fish). the staff was super sweet as well making the whole experience worthwhile. As well as the environment being clean with a staff working cleaning the tables very quickly and efficiently as people left.🎣😁

Great food! We had that fish and chips and the fish pieces were very large. Have an outdoor and indoor seating area.

Stopped by on this beauty of a patio for some fish and chips and it was delicious! Great views of the lunenburg harbour while eating too!
