Main Street Cafe Menu Prices Canada 2026

Main Street Cafe prices run from $2.69 for a Ristretto to $59.99 for the two shareable platters, with most mains at $14.99 to $29.99. This is the restaurant and lounge inside the Maritime Inn in downtown Antigonish, Nova Scotia, and I have not eaten here myself. I read the published menu listing in full on October 28, 2026, and every price below comes from that listing in Canadian dollars. No breakfast prices and no pizza prices appear in that listing, so none are invented here. For another pub-style menu to compare while you plan, the Town Crier Pub menu prices page covers a pub with its own shareables and handhelds range.

What Are Main Street Cafe Prices in Canada?

Main Street Cafe prices in Canada are the prices in the tables below, in Canadian dollars, from the published SinglePlatform menu listing for Main Street Cafe at 158 Main Street, Antigonish, read in full on October 28, 2026. The Main Street Cafe Antigonish menu is a general Canadian hotel-restaurant menu, not a seafood-only menu, even though its signature dishes are seafood. Tourism Nova Scotia leads with the homemade seafood chowder, the panko-crusted haddock and the house-made desserts, and the menu backs that up. Here is the honest part about sources. No official menu page or price table for this restaurant was found on the Maritime Inn hotel site, so I am not linking one or pretending it publishes prices. The price source is the published menu listing linked below, and Tourism Nova Scotia is the source for the restaurant description, the patio and the seasonal woodfired pizzas. Main Street Cafe Antigonish prices below are the menu-listing figures only. Prices can change, and the two platters include a pitcher of House Draft Beer in the menu wording, with no separate beer price anywhere, so no beer price is quoted.

The Main Street Cafe seafood chowder price is $9.99 for a cup and $12.99 for a crock. That chowder is the dish to start with. Creamy, with haddock, salmon, shrimp, scallops, potatoes, celery, onions and carrots, finished with fresh cream. At $9.99, the cup is fair value for what is in it. The Chef’s Soup is $5.99 for a cup and $8.99 for a crock, prepared daily. Every salad except the Asian Salad is $9.99 small and $12.99 large, which makes the salad table easy to read at a glance. The Asian Salad is $9.99 to $12.99, with arugula, crispy fried rice paper, sesame dressing, cilantro, radish and toasted sesame seeds. And watch the add-ons. Chicken Breast and Shrimp are $5.99 each as salad add-ons, Scallops and 4 Bacon Wrapped Scallops are $10.99, and the Maple Roasted Salmon Fillet is $11.99. Those are add-on prices, not standalone mains. A large salad with salmon on top is $24.98 before tax and tip, and you should know that before you order it, not after.

Starters are where this menu shows its personality. Samosas are $9.99 for four, served with a choice of mild, medium, hot, honey garlic or spicy Thai sauce. The Main Street Crunchy Wings run $9.99 to $16.99 with the same sauce choices. The two flatbreads at $11.99 are solid sharing plates, and the Pineapple Curry Chicken flatbread at $14.99 is the odd one I would actually try first. Mild pineapple curry sauce, chicken, bell peppers, red onion and mozzarella. Different. In a good way. The Spicy Thai Chicken Nachos are $15.99, crispy wontons, not tortilla chips, with extra cheese at $2.99. The Lobster and Crab Dip at $16.99, cream cheese, lobster, sweet crab and spinach with oven baked flat bread, reads like the treat-yourself starter. And the two platters? Both $59.99, both for 4 to 6 people, both including a pitcher of House Draft Beer. The Pub Platter brings samosas, wings, mozza sticks, cauliflower bites and potato wedges. The Sharable Seafood Platter brings calamari, butterfly shrimp, bacon wrapped scallops, haddock bites and fries. Calamari is subject to availability, which is the menu’s own note, not mine. Sixty dollars for a group platter with a pitcher is not cheap, but split four ways it works out fine.

Take-Home Frozen Packs (Retail, Not Dine-In)

The two items below are take-home retail packs from the menu listing, not dishes served at the table. Frozen samosas keep for 30 days, and frozen wings need to be thawed and fried. They are listed separately on purpose, so nobody mistakes a bulk frozen pack for a starter price.

Main Street Cafe Menu Card Canada 2026

Here are the Main Street Cafe menu prices on one card, so you can scan the soups, starters, sandwiches, mains, desserts and coffee fast. It is a render of the current published menu listing, not a photo of an in-store board, because no genuine current menu-card photo exists. The full sources are linked below.

All sandwiches and burgers are served with your choice of fries or soup of the day, with an upgrade to sweet potato fries, kettle chips or a side salad for $1.99. That detail matters when you compare prices, because the $16.99 is a full plate, not a bare sandwich. The Main Street Chicken Club is $16.99, grilled chicken, bacon, cheddar and chipotle pepper mayo on a toasted Italian herb ciabatta bun. The Spicy Buffalo Chicken Sandwich is $16.99 too, crispy chicken in buffalo hot sauce with poblano avocado ranch. The Steak Sandwich is $19.99, a charbroiled 6 oz striploin with peppercorn demi-glaze, mushrooms, peppers and onions on half a ciabatta bun. My favourite of the burgers is the Main Street Burger at $16.99, a 6 oz beef patty with bacon, lettuce, tomato, onion and cheddar, crowned with a butter pickle. The Black Bean and Corn Burger at $14.99 is the cheapest burger here, house made, with spinach, tomato, feta and chipotle pepper mayo. The BBQ Beef Burger is $16.99, and the Vegetable Wrap at $12.99 is the cheapest handheld on the menu. Honestly, for a hotel restaurant, these are reasonable 2026 prices. Not a bargain, not a rip-off. Just fair.

Main Street Cafe Nova Scotia menu prices for mains run from $4.99 for Garlic Cheese Bread to $29.99 for the New York Striploin before add-ons. The Digby Scallop Fettuccine at $28.99 is the priciest pasta, large Digby scallops with bacon, spinach and green onion in garlic cream sauce, and it earns its price. The Seafood Primavera Fettuccine is $25.99, shrimp, scallops, sweet crab, peppers and red onions in pesto and olive oil. The Lobster Mac N Cheese is $18.99, with a $1.99 side salad add-on printed under it on the menu. The Chicken and Mushroom Penne at $16.99 and the Chicken Parmesan at $19.99 are the value mains, and both pastas note a gluten-friendly option. The Baked Parmesan Haddock at $21.99 is panko coated, baked golden brown, with cilantro lime tartar sauce, vegetable of the day and rice or potato. The Baked Atlantic Salmon at $25.99 comes in a lemon-dill cream sauce. Now, the add-ons again. The Highland Toss is $15.99, and chicken or shrimps add $5.99, scallops add $10.99. The striploin is $29.99, and shrimps add $5.99, scallops add $10.99, onions and mushrooms add $3.99. A striploin with scallops is $40.98 before tax and tip. Say it plainly. That is the most expensive single plate combination on this menu, and it is still cheaper than the $59.99 platters.

Desserts are $8.99 to $9.99, every one of them. Five at $8.99, one at $9.99. The Maple Pecan Bread Pudding is the one Tourism Nova Scotia names, cubed bread baked and served on custard with warm caramel and toasted pecans, and at $8.99 it is the dessert I would order. The Carrot Cake is two layers with pineapple, walnuts and coconut under cream cheese icing. The SKOR Cheesecake has a chewy SKOR cookie base with caramel and dark chocolate. The Vegan Chocolate Decadence Cake is both vegan and gluten-free, according to the menu. And the Pucker Up Lemon Cake at $9.99 is marked sharable, three layers with lemon cream cheese filling and lemon mousse. Share it. Or do not. I am not judging.

Coffee runs $2.69 to $4.99, and the Espresso Martini is $11.99. That is the full drinks price list found in any source for this restaurant. No beer, wine, soft drink, juice or water prices were found, so none are quoted here. Do not expect a drinks table that does not exist. The menu prints three empty headings about milk and shot options for the coffee drinks, with no prices or text under them, and I have invented nothing under them. The menu also carries an allergy alert: tell your server about any allergies or dietary restrictions before ordering. Take that seriously, especially with the gluten-friendly pasta options and the vegan cake, and ask staff on the day.

What Should You Order at Main Street Cafe?

My pick is the seafood chowder cup at $9.99, then the Baked Parmesan Haddock at $21.99. That is the Antigonish plate this restaurant is known for, chowder first, haddock second, and you will know the total before tax and tip before you sit down. Is the chowder worth it over the Chef’s Soup at $5.99? If you came for Nova Scotia seafood, yes. If you just want something warm and cheap, the Chef’s Soup wins. For another Atlantic seafood menu to compare before you decide, the Evans Seafood menu prices page covers a seafood restaurant with its own chowder and haddock range.

Main Street Cafe Baked Haddock

Main Street Cafe baked parmesan haddock is panko coated haddock baked to golden brown with cilantro lime tartar sauce, served with vegetable of the day and rice or potato, at $21.99. It is the haddock plate Tourism Nova Scotia names for this restaurant.

And if haddock is not your thing? The Fish and Chips at $16.99 is two pieces of Atlantic haddock in homemade beer batter with tartar sauce and coleslaw, and it is five dollars cheaper than the baked haddock. The Lobster Mac N Cheese at $18.99 is the comfort pick. The New York Striploin at $29.99 is the splurge, and only add the scallops if you mean it, because that takes it to $40.98. Finish with the Maple Pecan Bread Pudding at $8.99. Short version: chowder, haddock, bread pudding. That is a proper Antigonish meal, and it comes to $40.97 before tax and tip. Not bad at all.

Visiting Main Street Cafe in Antigonish: Hours, Address and What to Know

Main Street Cafe Maritime Inn Antigonish hours, from the published menu listing and the Tripadvisor listing, are 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. every day, Monday to Sunday. One honest caution: another listing updated October 15, 2026 shows a 7:30 a.m. opening instead of 8:00 a.m. I have not merged the two into one invented time, and I have not called the restaurant to settle it, so check before an early breakfast run. No holiday hours were confirmed, so none are stated. The address is 158 Main Street, at the Maritime Inn, Antigonish, Nova Scotia B2G 2B7, Canada, and the phone is (902) 863-4001. The restaurant serves breakfast, lunch and dinner daily, according to Tourism Nova Scotia, and it has a summer patio and seasonal woodfired pizzas, also according to Tourism Nova Scotia. But here is the catch. The menu listing read in full contains no breakfast section and no breakfast item or price, and no pizza item or price either. So this article gives no breakfast dish, no breakfast price, no pizza name and no pizza price. Check the current breakfast menu and the seasonal pizza offering at the restaurant. Do not borrow prices from another restaurant with the same name. There is a different Main Street Cafe in Ottawa, Ontario, a different Main Street Restaurant on the Cabot Trail in Ingonish, Nova Scotia, and several Main Street Cafes in the United States. Every price here is tied to 158 Main Street, Antigonish only. Ratings are reported separately and never averaged: Tripadvisor shows 4.1 out of 5 from 260 reviews, and restaurantji shows 4.2 from 231 ratings. Different sites, different counts. Take them as two separate snapshots, nothing more. The cafe is inside a 32-room inn near St. Francis Xavier University, with free off-street parking, free wifi, takeout, reservations and wheelchair access listed among its features. This is a general Canadian hotel restaurant, not a seafood-only restaurant, even though seafood leads the menu.
