Lightkeepers Seafood Restaurant

Take in the ocean view while dining on fresh Newfoundland seafood: Lobster, Crab, Mussels, Shrimp, Salmon, Cod and more. Located in the former residence of the Fishing Point Lighthouse keeper, kilometres from the National Historic Viking Site at L’Anse aux Meadows, with a spectacular view of Iceberg Alley. Tour group menus and prices available. The Lightkeepers Seafood Restaurant started in 1993 in the former residence of the lightkeeper of the Fishing Point Lighthouse. Locally owned and operated, the restaurant has been a mainstay of the dining environment in the St. Anthony area. The restaurant has built a solid reputation as the premier seafood restaurant in the area and has been highly recommended by many national and international publications such as “The Lonely Planet” “Fedors” “Where to Eat in Canada” and Macleans Magazine. We offer a full menu of seafood items as well as many choices from the grill. We have built our reputation on seafood, but we are also a favorite place for chicken, ribs and mouthwatering steaks. Nearly all of our seafood is procured locally, and in season we offer all of the most popular dishes from the oceans. Lobster, Crab, Mussels, Shrimp, Salmon, Halibut and of course, Cod and Cod Tongues are all available prepared in various styles. Viking Feasts: Our building is a replica of the 1000 year old Leif Erickson's home at nearby L'Anse aux Meadows National Historic Site.     "Leifsburdir" is covered in sod and nearly invisible from the outside, but inside it takes you back to 1000 AD when the Vikings roamed our land.   You are sure to enjoy the setting at Leifsburdir. Our main event is The Great Viking Feast at Leifsburdir and is offered to the general public and to tour groups throughout the summer season. While we do not run the Viking Feast every evening we do endeavor to run at least six nights per week for July and August while less frequently during June and September. We will host the Viking Feast for any group over 20 people anytime.   While the setting at Leifsburdir sets the tone for your experience, it is our merry band of Vikings that make your stay with us a memorable one. Whether it is a Viking lunch, an early Viking Dinner or The Great Viking Feast Dinner Theatre our staff will make your stay an enjoyable one.      Starting at 7:00PM most evenings during the summer, the Great Viking Feast provides a humorous look at Viking life and at ourselves. Our merry band of Vikings let you steal the show at our Viking court after feasting with your friends to some of the best food you are likely to encounter anywhere during your travels. It pays to prepare for a little fun with your traveling companions.
