Fredericton’s Seafood Lover’s Guide

Whether you’re a local, or a visitor to our shores, seafood is synonymous with the Maritimes! With so much to offer, we’ve put together a list of some of Fredericton’s favourite seafood dishes when looking for the catch of the day or just a really good lobster roll!

Claudine’s Eatery

138 Dundonald St. | (506) 454-0430 | Website

Most famed for its signature mimosa filled benny brunches, Claudine’s must not be overlooked for its selection of seafood dishes – whether morning or night! Not only do they play host to the BEST lobster roll in town but they have a killer seafood chowder on the menu. Evening meal selections can also be a tough one with a decadent seafood fettucine on the list, as well as a killer fish n chips which is the crispiest around (and gluten free to boot!). 

William's Seafood

397 Smythe St. | (506) 454-2246 | Website

William's is a fave amongst locals! In true retro diner fashion, they serve up fried clams by the plateful and have a fully laden menu for all those fishy fried delicacies we regularly crave. While it may be nothing fancy in terms of dining in, this is one of the busiest spots in town where you’ll often find a line up. 

Wolastoq Wharf

527 Union St. | (506) 449-0100 | Website

Perhaps our most premier destination for seafood lovers is Wolastoq Wharf, which is located on Fredericton’s northside. Set up as a fine dining experience, it often requires a reservation before you visit - be sure to bring your appetite though, as they’re known for very generous portion sizes. When it comes to their fish, it’s the freshest in town and their best selling menu items are both their seafood fettucine and seafood risotto. From an array of starters, mains and salads – seafood is the feature of menu – with something to offer everyone! Just don’t leave without ordering the dessert!

MOCO Downtown

100 Regent St. | (506) 455-6626 | Website

An Italian restaurant by night, MOCO is known more so as a pasta lovers delight – but they often offer up fresh fish dishes as daily or weekly specials. Here, you’ll find a menu filled with flavours of the Mediterranean, like their linguine pescadore or their salmon piccata! Our fave starter item, which is a regular menu feature, is their deep fried calamari! Its gluten free, tossed in a chickpea flour which makes this delicacy extra light and crispy – and such a treat! 

Gahan Riverside

426 Queen St. | (506) 454-1929 | Website

Next on our list is a famed Maritime taphouse, with locations dotted throughout the Atlantic provinces. The Gahan House Riverside can be found on our idyllic Queen St in the heart of downtown Fredericton. With a selection of their own craft brews and a hidden backyard patio – it’s the perfect destination for these warmer evenings. With appys like Fish cakes, PEI mussels, haddock tacos and tuna tartare there’s plenty of seafood goodies to satisfy your appetite! 

Issacs Way

649 Queen St. | (506) 474-7222 | Website

Another Frederictonian fave to make our list is Issac’s Way. This restaurant is located at the end of Queen St in a historic building with tonnes of character! They have a full section of their menu dedicated to classic seafood items like Chowders, battered Haddock, and their delicious Salmon Cakes with a lemon dill sauce. Be sure to check out their longstanding Art auction items when in house, not only does is showcase our local talent but a portion of proceeds from sales are donated back to various community initiatives!

Dimitris Souvlaki

349 King St. | (506) 452-8882 | Website

Next on our hitlist is our famed Greek food restaurant, Dimitris Souvlaki! With a variety of Mediterranean dishes to tantalise any tastebuds, they of course also have an array of seafood dishes to offer. Their menu has appys like sandori prawns and kalamari, to Seafood Platters and Surf n Turf mains that feature things like jumbo shrimp, and juicy scallops. If you decide to eat here, you gotta try their signature tzatziki dip which is sensational and a fave amongst locals.

In the mood to cook your own?

Peter’s Meat Market

A famed local “meat market” that’s a hidden gem for locals who want to buy and cook their own catch of the day! Peter’s has been in operation in Fredericton for over 40 years and its reputation precedes it for finding the freshest fishy delights in town. If you’re on the hunt for fresh oysters, mussels, or even lobster, this is the place to find it!  Bonus – they now ship lobster!

Whether you’re looking for a killer fish and chips, or a fine dining seafood experience – Fredericton has lots to offer. From your classic Mediterranean style menus like our signature Greek and Italian restaurants, to the best lobster rolls available morning or night at Claudine’s Eatery, we’re confident you’ll find a fave seafood spot!
