In-Depth Information
In keeping with its genteel atmosphere, St Andrews has embraced the custom of after-
noon cream tea. For lunch and dinner, there are a range of nice options, mostly clustered
around Water St.
Sweet Harvest Market
CAFE $
(182 Water St; mains $5-11; 8am-5pm Mon-Sat, 9am-3pm Sun)
Cheerful counter staff create
wholesome soups, salads, sandwiches and sweets that are way beyond average standard,
and chowder that is truly outstanding. The coffee's good, too.
Clam Digger
SEAFOOD $
(4468 Hwy 127, Chamcook; mains $6-15; 11:30am-3pm & 5-9pm Apr-Sep)
Cars park three-
deep outside this teeny red-and-white seafood shack that's a summertime tradition in
these parts. Order your clam platter or juicy, dripping cheeseburger, and claim one of the
red-painted picnic tables. Don't forget an ice cream cone! It's in Chamcook, about 9 km
north of St Andrews .

The
Swiss chef-owner makes wonderful use of local bounty in this warm, art-filled dining
room. The ever-changing menu might include foraged goose-tongue greens and wild
mushrooms, periwinkles (a small shellfish) or New Brunswick lobster. They each play a
part in complex, exquisite dishes - say, lobster with nasturtium flower dumplings and
vanilla bisque, or foie gras with cocoa nibs and bee balm-poached peach. Reservations
are crucial. The restaurant is 3km north of town.
