A little sunshine, a few oysters, and one more chance to enjoy the patio. 🦪☀️

As we head into the Thanksgiving long weekend, we’re soaking up the final two days of our season. Tomorrow is our last day, and we can’t think of a better way to wrap things up than with good food, cold drinks, and all of you.

Hope to see you by the harbour! 🥂

If you've been telling yourself you'll come back for the Scallop Carbonara one more time… this is your sign.

Only THREE days left before we close for the season!

Scallop Carbonara, oysters, tacos, cocktails, harbour views… whatever your Half Shell favourite is, now's the time.

We're here until Saturday, October 10th!

Tonight till 8 | Friday & Saturday till 9

Final week at The Half Shell. 🦪☀️

Patio season is coming to a close, and Saturday is our last day of 2026. If you’ve been craving the Tuna Tostadas, now’s the time: sustainable Yellowfin tuna, jalapeño, pickled onion, green onion, cilantro + avocado crema on crisp tortilla chips.

Come get your favourites in before we close for the season.

One week from today, we’ll be wrapping up another season at The Half Shell. 🦪🌊

But today? The sun is shining, the patio is calling, and we’re going to pretend summer isn’t over just yet. ☀️

Come soak up the sunshine, order your Half Shell favourites, sip something good, and take in the harbour view while you can. And if you’ve been meaning to have the Scallop Carbonara one more time… this is your sign.

One more week. Let’s make it a good one. 🤍

The countdown is on 🌊🦪

Our last day of the season is **October 10**, which means there’s still time to squeeze in another afternoon on the patio before we close up for the year.

The forecast is still serving up plenty of patio weather, and we’ll be here with oysters on ice, lobster, tacos, cocktails and that Lunenburg Harbour view right through our final day.

We’ve been getting lots of messages asking how long we’re open — so spread the word and come see us before **October 10**!

It’s officially fall 🍂 and we’re squeezing every last second we can out of patio season.

A warm bowl of chowder is pretty much the perfect fall patio lunch.

Come join us on Montague Street!

A club, but make it coastal. 🦞

Nova Scotia lobster, Oulton’s bacon, tomato, red onion and arugula piled onto a brioche bun. Served with a side salad and a pretty great view of Lunenburg Harbour.
