the seafood lighthouse is terrible.....my husband went in and bought crab legs and couldnt even eat them cause there was no meat in them...empty shells. While he was there he inquired about sending lobster to Ontario for mothers day soon coming. He was told no problem...and when the day came just to come back and place the order. The website... More

Place has everything you need while travelling. Nothing special, but convenient. A liquor outlet would complete the package. BUt, everything else is available.

This Market has just about everything. If you need grocery items or you need a meal on the run this is your stopping place. I frequent the Market for meals while on the road. Sometimes just stop for a snack ..

We always stop at Masstown Market if we are passing by. There are neat gift ideas you don't find anywhere else. The bakery and deli are wonderful and reasonably priced compared to nearby markets/ bakeries. Produce, groceries, nslc, bakery, deli, gift ware, seafood, all under one roof. What more could you need?

We stopped in for lunch. I had a ham sandwiche. My partner had a roast beef sandwiche and soup. The bread and soup were made on site. Our food was delicious and fresh. Place your order and pay at the counter. Then grab a seat. They have a large bakery section so you can buy a baked treat to go.... More

Great spot but pricey and the snack bar food wasn't as good as I heard. The coffee is wonderful though! I did love the fish and chips at the Boat in the summer but the winter meals inside I will not be getting again . I also found the store quite dirty and dusty in areas.

Great market with places to eat - healthy in the market place and just outside is a newly constructed windmill which holds a fish and chip restaurant. The market itself has a bakery, butchers, general grocery, fruit and veg, gift store - with some unusual stuff and ice cream parlour. Worth a visit on your way to Parrsboro.

Went in the winter and look forward to returning in the spring. The market itself has a great variety of local and fresh food, as well as an amazing selection of homemade bread products. The lighthouse has 4-5 floors of short historical displays highlighting the area, quick to go through but interesting with beautiful photos. Kids and adults young at... More
