Eating in Fredericton
Cabin Restaurant, 723 Woodstock Road past the Delta Hotel, 506-459-0094. This place could define the term greasy spoon restaurant. Great food, great prices! --typical diner, the food is sometimes great, sometimes not so good.
Sunshine Diner, Woodstock Road across from the Diplomat. Typical diner fare, with pancakes to die for, at unbeatable prices! Best Breakfast In Town
Cora's, 476 Queen Street, (506) 472-2672, Chain restaurant. Busy all the time despite the price. Expect to line up for unexciting and overly large portions of omelettes and crepes with lots of fruit garnish. Okay for ovo-lacto vegetarians, but it would be nice to have some veggie food that does not involve eggs.
Jack's Pizza & Donairs, 379 King Street, (506) 443-9000. Largest slices, pies and donairs in town. Open late.
Brewbakers, 546 King Street, (506) 459-0067, . Pricey in the evenings, but a couple of decent vegetarian lunch items (one pizza, one pasta, one sandwich, one appetizer) They serve a mussels in garlic and parmesan sauce which is incredible, as well as a baked brie that, while incredibly small, is very tasty.
El Burrito Loco, 304 King Street, 506 459.5626, . Reasonable but pricey Mexican. Some vegetarian fare, but I have never asked what is in the beans.
The Blue Canoe A restaurant located at the Irving gas station on the TCH en route to Oromocto. Excellent prices, good value for dollar, hot fresh food. The kind of trucker's stick to your ribs meal you crave. Also a free wireless internet wifi hotspot
The Blue Door, 100 Regent Street, 506 455-2583, Busy every day and evening of the week. Calling and reserving ahead is always a good idea. Food and service get mixed reviews.
The Terrace Dining Room at the Lord Beaverbrook Hotel, 659 Queen Street, 506 455 3371. A wonderful restaurant in the summertime due in part to its wonderful deck looking out over the river. Friday night usually has a nice prime rib special/buffet. Saturday night is the tour of the world where the chefs of the Lord Beaverbrook Hotel try their skills cooking wonderful dishes from around the world. Worth checking out!
The Snooty Fox, 66 Regent Street, 506 474 1199. Very noisy at peak hours but one of the more decent places to get a simple meal and very good beer without being gouged. The roasted vegetarian sandwich is tasty and there are some other veggie options, especially at lunch.
Dimitri's, 349 King Street, 506.452.8882. Really good Greek food! The prices are very reasonable. Vegetarian moussaka, and of course the usual hummus, salads, etc. Veggie pita is disappointing feta cheese sandwich. Meat dishes are fine though, the soulavki was great and the greek salad was nice.
Pano's Souvlaki & Donair, 527 Union Street, 506.472.0003. Fewer veggie options than most Greek restaurants, but the veggie stir fry served on French fries is a guilty pleasure. Most of the menu sticks to a central theme - meat + veggies + pita + tzatziki sauce = YUM! Pano's is a Fredericton institution (slinging donairs at the market since 1988, and the original restaurant opened in 1991), and they do what they do very well (their tzatziki sauce is addictive...and yes, they will sell you a container of it if you ask). They are a "souvlatzidiko" rather than a "taverna", so if you want moussaka or other classic Greek restaurant fare, then try the older and more established Dimitri's in the Tannery.
Panda Chinese Restaurant, 1216 Regent St (at Prospect, in the City Motel)(506) 455-5050. Fredericton's only authentic Chinese restaurant opened in the summer of 2010, providing an excellent addition to Fredericton's otherwise dismal ethnic food scene. They have a daily Chinese lunch buffet with a small variety of choices (though the quality of the food makes up for it), and at $9 it is one of the cheapest buffets in the city.
The Palate Restaurant & Cafe 462 Queen Street 506.450.7911. Gets mixed reviews. Often thought to be overpriced and lacking in atmosphere. Avoid the lamb, the sauce is so excessive and overpowering that you may as well have dog meat on your plate for all the taste you get. Other dishes are passable.
Mexicali Rosa's, 546 King Street, 506 451-0686, . The vegetarian fajitas are not particularly authentic, but they are tasty and the veggies are plentiful. Not the worst choice if you are on the road and could really use a meal that incorporates a lot of vegetables. The meat dishes are better. It's the sort of place people go to over and over again for burritos and drinks.
Luna Pizza, York Street, 506.455.4020. Best pizza in Fredericton is not saying much. They are pretty good if you order a whole pie, but the slices can be disappointing (if not fresh). The ceasar salad is great though. The restaurant portion is a nice, decently priced placed for Italian.
Fadi's Pizza 312 Main St. 454-9888. Good quality and tasty. The fatoush salad is great! Authentic, very garlicky, large portion, and possibly vegan.
Coffee & Friends, 415 King Street, 506.455.4554.
The Happy Baker, 520 King Street, Carleton Place, 506.454.7200. Lunch only. Their soups are good and there is generally a vegetarian choice. Some of the sandwiches are veggie. Great baked goods!
Oscar's Bar & Bistro, HAS CLOSED
Bruno's, 225 Woodstock Road in the Delta Hotel, 506-451-7935, . Upscale seafood restaurant, Thursday night Prime Rib Buffet, Friday Night Seafood Buffet and Sunday Brunch. Food is bland and overpriced. Outdoor patio "The Dip" in the summer is fantastic.
The Diplomat, 253 Woodstock Road (next to the Delta), 506-454-2400. 24-hour family restaurant with breakfast and a Chinese buffet (buffet is very Canadianized and heavy on meat and deep fried items).
Caribbean Flavas, . Brightly-coloured dining room serving Caribbean food, with very friendly service. Over-priced but some items are good. Some vegetarian options.
Trinitea's Cup Christian Café, 87 Regent Street (Downtown), ☎ (506) 458-8327, . 8AM-5PM M-T; 8AM-11PM F; 10AM-5PM Sat; 11:30AM-4:30PM Sun. Soups made from scratch; Sandwiches from Store-roasted meats, deli-sliced (no deli meats). Best Soup in Fredericton award. Youth drop-in Friday nights 6-11PM Everything under $9. �
Isaac's Way, 73 Carleton St., ☎ 472-7937, . Casual dining in a relaxed atmosphere. Huge summer patio, great service, creative food, and an extensive wine and draught selection. Come early to get a seat as its usually packed! �
Cafe Loka, 343 York Street ((corner of York and Aberdeen)), ☎ 506-206-2239, . M-F 7:30AM-4PM, Sa 10AM-2PM, Sun (closed). Recently opened Cafe offering fair trade capulin coffee espresso drinks, all day breakfast menu (eggs,wraps) lunch menu (paninis,soup&salad,rice dishes) Daily specials are unique and many use our family Italian recipies. All items are made to order or homemade and prepared in our kitchen using fresh ingredients, locally sourced in NB if possible $5 to $13. (45.9575362,-66.6479207)�
