Beloved licensed heritage restaurant overlooking Passamaquoddy Bay — a locals' favourite since 1926.
Niger Reef Tea House has occupied its heritage building on Joe's Point Road in St. Andrews, NB since 1926, and the structure itself is part of the draw — the interior walls are adorned with murals by artist Lucille Davenport. Both the indoor dining room and a rustic outdoor deck look out over Passamaquoddy Bay, making it one of the more atmospheric dining spots on the Fundy Shore.
The menu is rooted in Maritime cooking: fish cakes, lobster sandwiches, and haddock anchor the regular offerings, supplemented by creative daily specials. The restaurant is licensed, and the vibe runs casual rather than formal — a place where locals and visiting golfers have been returning for decades.
For golfers making the trip to St. Andrews — home to the Algonquin Resort's championship course — Niger Reef Tea House sits just minutes from the waterfront and makes a natural stop for lunch or an early dinner. Reservations are recommended.
