2 Best Restaurants in Eastern Newfoundland, Newfoundland and Labrador

Bonavista Social Club

$ Fodor's choice

The name implies more than just a restaurant and it is: a view, a respite, a community. From a table inside, you can watch pizzas cook in a wood-fired oven while sitting on handcrafted wooden furniture. On the deck, the views of the sea and gardens and farms surrounding the restaurant are unimpeded. This has fast become a locals' and travelers' favorite, and you are likely to bump into a friend here, even on your first visit. Located in Upper Amherst Cove just off Route 235, it is a short drive out from Bonavista.

Twine Loft Dining

$$$$ Fodor's choice

Every evening, the set menu at the Twine Loft proves to be one of the region's best meals. Relax into a true fine dining experience complete with an on-site sommelier. The deck overlooking the water is also available without reservation for happy hour drinks every day from 3 pm to 5 pm. Dietary restrictions are accommodated, but require advanced notice and discussion.
