    Tiny portions of pasta. Poke bowl had cold and firm rice. It should have been warm and fluffy. Tasted like leftover rice from the previous night. Burger & fries were good. Pub fare is OK, but the fancier stuff misses the mark big time.

    We had the cauliflower bites to start. We then had Halibut pasta special and pan fried haddock and then warm pear cobbler for dessert! All was delicious and Clayton was a top notch server!

    Love the overall experience at Merchant Man.. Our favorite P.E.I. restaurant.. The music is typically kept at a volume that we can have comfortable conversation. We don’t care for restaurants with loud music 🎶 for our dinner dates. As long as our seats are away from the drafty doors we are happy!

    Venue is always very good, food is usually very good. We ordered two specials, coffee crusted steak with leek and potato, and halibut with mushroom tagliatelle. Both were very good, halibut was a bit overcooked but still tasted great! It was busy of course, Valentines at supper time. Host was efficient even though it was busy.
