Dining in Saint John
Known for its seafood, Saint John is the perfect place to savor a wide variety of fresh, flavorful dishes. Largely influenced by German, Ukrainian, Polish and Scandinavian cuisine, Canadian fare most resembles American and British cuisine. Delight your palette with Fundy Bay scallops or Bay of Fundy traditional seafood chowder. Your mouth will water when you bite into a buttery, cinnamon sugar Pets-de-soeurs and for a savory sensation, taste a fiddlehead dish, a vegetable similar in taste to asparagus, but resembling cabbage. If you are in the mood for more familiar fare, there are plenty of pizza and burger joints and diners offering homestyle cooking, in addition to Italian, Chinese, Thai, and Mexican restaurants. Don’t miss the Saint John City Market where local fishermen and farmers sell the best they have to offer from produce, meats, and seafood to handmade local crafts. Located in the heart of Saint John and open year-round Monday through Saturday, the market is a sure-fire stop during your visit.
