Reviews for Charlotte Lane Cafe in Shelburne, NS
My husband and I visited Charlotte Lane Cafe while visiting Shelburne for our honeymoon. We each enjoyed a lovely cocktail... followed by some mussels and tuna tataki. Both were delicious. For dinner, I ordered the mushroom ravioli and my husband got thescallops. We both enjoyed our dinners, but decided the ravioli was the better choice. For dessert we ordered a chocolatecheesecake with passion fruit sauce and peanut butter pie. Both desserts were fantastic, but the peanut butter pie wasespecially good. Overall we had a wonderful time. The atmosphere was nice and quiet. The servers were very nice. I woulddefinitely recommend stopping by if you?re visiting Shelburne. Read more
I highly recommend the pork belly which was delicious however we also enjoyed the best steak & scallops I?ve ever eaten, so... tender & done to perfection. It?s easy to see this chef is a Five Star Chef. I can?t wait to return to Shelburn to try a newdish at this quaint little restaurant Read more

We just had a wonderful anniversary dinner at the Charlotte Lane Cafe. We had their current signature cocktail with purple... Empress 1908 gin, lemon and simple syrup. We were astonished by the quality of the seafood chowder?delicious broth withperfectly cooked shrimp, scallops and white fish. The tuna tataki appetizer was also delicately braised and very fresh. Thelocal white wine served as a great accompaniment. And dessert? It was a lite, layered mousse-like chocolate delight. We werehappy we each got our own. Our server was friendly, engaging, skillful and made our dinner especially enjoyable. The unassumingentryway opens to a warm and inviting space. Overall, this was an exceptional dining experience.

We own a rental suite in town and always recommend the Charlotte Lane Cafe to our guests and they never disappoint. Last night?s... guests remarked on the excellent service and the exquisite seafood chowder. I have had a guest tell me they enjoyed the beststeak they have ever eaten. My wife and I both rave about the vegetable curry. When in Shelburne, make this one of your go toplaces for sure Read more
Our travel guide recommended this place and we were excited to taste the food. Upon arrival we found out that the renowned Swiss... chef just retired. But we were confident the new chef and owner would deliver similar quality food. Seafood dishes were mainlystuffed with cheap shrimp, like the chowder and the monster size seafood fettuccine. Mediocre lobster ravioli, again monsterportion, all overpriced for the quality. One hour wait time after being seated for appetizers. Service mediocre like the food,chitter chatting away right next to everyone to each other in the uncomfortably silent small dining room. Read more
Wonderful food and ambiance. Friendly service staff. Charlotte Lane recently reopened and it's still a lovely place for lunch... or dinner. We recently went for the prix fixe dinner/lunch and it was wonderful. Every course was fantastic. Real eye opener.The mushroom soup was unbelievable. The gnocchi superb. Ravioli, delicious. Read more
