New Brunswick Travel Guide - Going Out

 

 


Food and Drink

The province is famous for seafood. Fredericton, Saint John and Moncton offer international cuisine.

Regional specialities:
• Seafood highlights include lobster from Shediac and delicately flavoured Atlantic salmon served with butter, new potatoes and fiddleheads (young fronds of ostrich fern served with butter and seasoned or used cold in salads).
• New Brunswick dulse, an edible seaweed, is a local favourite.
• Home-made baked beans and steamed brown bread are served as traditional Saturday-night supper.
• Rapée pie, made with chicken, is an Acadian speciality for Sundays or festivals.
• La râpure is a potato and salted pork dish.

Legal drinking age: 19.

Nightlife

Music is very much a part of the lives of New Brunswick citizens. Many bars and clubs throughout the province, especially in Fredericton, Saint John and Moncton, feature live music, much of it with a French, Scottish and Irish flavour. The area has recently acquired a reputation for jazz and blues.

Shopping

Special purchases include local and provincial handicrafts which are especially worthwhile in New Brunswick. The best markets in Saint John are between Charlotte and Germain streets, forming the Old City Market. This is open all week, with farmers taking over on Friday and Saturday. Moncton has three large shopping areas: Champlain Place, Moncton Mall and Highfield Square. 

Shopping hours: Mon-Sat 0900-1730; 1000-2200 in malls.
