Lobster Trail History
Nova Scotia lobster is world-famous – and for good reason. We have some of the most fertile lobster fishing grounds, not just in Canada, but on the planet. If you want a true, authentic lobster experience then you’ve come to the right place!
This popular crustacean is the lifeblood of the many working fishing communities in Nova Scotia. These fishermen and women proudly sail the oceans bringing us home the freshest, most delicious Atlantic Lobster.

Lobster tastes better in Peggy’s Cove 🦞🌊
At Sou’Wester Restaurant, fresh Atlantic lobster is served alongside coastal favourites like seafood chowder, lobster rolls, lobster mac and cheese, and lobster nachos.
Fresh seafood, coastal views, and one of Nova Scotia’s most iconic locations? Yes please!

Creamy, loaded with fresh seafood, and a staple of any Nova Scotia road trip. From lobster and scallops to mussels and haddock, every bowl brings a different take on East Coast comfort food.
Consider this your sign to stop for the chowder, and don’t forget to collect stamps on your Chowder Trail passport along the way!
