What Annette Herman doesn't like about Brass Rail Restaurant:
I wanted to try this restaurant, but unfortunately it closes every day at 17:00. Nova Scotia has not yet learned that there are still people in this province who want to eat after 17:00 View all feedback. What Minnie Renner likes about Brass Rail Restaurant:
Have been to the Brass Rail Restaurant several times now and every time the breakfast was great. The waitress remembered us after one time and recalled what we had to drink. Service is quick, even when busy. And a great price for the amount you get. It's a small, cozy restaurant, but quite comfortable. I've only tried the breakfast so far, will have to go back and try lunch or dinner. The coconut cream pie is delicio... View all feedback.

The Brass Rail is a neighborhood gem that offers a variety of delicious dishes like haddock tips, calamari, and clams. The staff is friendly and attentive, making for a pleasant dining experience. With reasonable prices and a cozy atmosphere, it's a great spot to visit in Cole Harbour. Despite some minor complaints about closing early, the food at The Brass Rail has received consistently positive reviews from customers who especially enjoy the home-cooked feel and friendly service. Whether it's for breakfast or lunch, this hidden gem is definitely worth checking out. Cheers to great food and friendly faces at The Brass Rail.
