I am the grand-daughter of Mr. & Mrs. Shatford, of Shatford's Lobster Pound. I regret to say they have both passed on. However, my brother took over the family business, and would be happy to serve you. The number is. 902- 857-9562. You can find the business on Highway 329 in Fox Point, about 30 minutes outside of Halifax. I wish you an enjoyable visit.

So glad to hear that Shatford's Lobster Pound is still in business. I have happy memories eating lobster beside the ocean. Is the restaurant still open?

The restaurant is no longer open, but Shatford's continues to sell live and cooked lobster. My partner and I buy from them frequently. Danny and his wife are great to deal with.

We went to Halls Lobster Pound the next day to see high tide (AMAZING!) and I had a Lobster roll for lunch. It was NOTgood, too much mayo and kind of shredded, like tuna fish salad.

When in Yarmouth we went to Stanley's Lobster Pound, it was delicious, and Ernie and Brian, the two brothers that own the business, were great fun, couldn't have been any nicer. Wouldn't have missed that experience for anything!

We passed Shatfords today while driving around, but will be staying the nex two nights near Peggy's Cove, so we plan on Ryers

And thank you Wanda, we are having an enjoyable visit!
