What User likes about The Knot Pub:
We arrived at noon during Tall Ships and the Folk Harbour Festival. The pub was super busy. We were greeted by a very friendly and professional staff. Our server was a delightful young lady. All the tables were taken so we were seated at the bar and our order was taken while we had a beer. A table came available in approx. 10-15 mins and our food arrived a few minutes after we were seated. We each had fishcakes and f... View all feedback. What User doesn't like about The Knot Pub:
We heard great things about the Knot but did not find the pub as delightful as we had hoped. It was SO noisy and crowded and therefore service was not attentive. Service was done with a smile, but the waiting was much too long. The beer was good, the food was ok. View all feedback.

Much more than pub fare, we were treated to great service, good food, great beer and amazing root beer.

Was our target. Maybe it's hidden, or maybe my Harley Davidson GPS Boom had it screwed up. Sometimes, smaller older establishments lack gps savy.

This place was recommended to us and we were not disappointed. We ate here twice and each time food was great.

This pub is just across the street from our B@B. Our host suggest that we walk over since we were late getting in and did not want to go downtown. The place was...

The Knot Pub offers a lively atmosphere but falls short on service and quality for some patrons. While the mussels and beer are standout dishes, other menu items receive mixed reviews. The lack of assistance for elderly and disabled customers is off-putting for some. The parking situation is convenient, but overall satisfaction seems to vary. However, for many, The Knot Pub remains a reliable go-to spot in Lunenburg, offering solid dishes and an inviting ambiance. Despite minor shortcomings, the pub continues to attract a diverse crowd of patrons, proving its enduring popularity in the area.

We knew we made the right decision to come here. The city was sleepy, but this place was full. We really enjoyed the fish cat

Had smoked meat on rye. It was great, 6 oz of meat Prices are fair.

Excellent food and service. Nice place for a date on date night.

If this pub were in our village, I'd be a regular. Great atmosphere. Excellent food and delightful service.
