What to do in St. John's

What to do, eat and drink on your next trip to St. John's.


MEMORABLE FEAST

Mallard Cottage anchors the local dining scene. Feast on Newfoundland game, seafood, and produce in a restored 18th century cottage—all in Quidi Vidi, the fishing village within the city.

MUSIC MUST-STOP

O’Brien’s Music Inc. makes traditional Newfoundland music lovers happy for good reason. Here, visitors can buy everything from accordions to ukuleles to CDs. Better yet, attend a pickin’ parlour session!

FOODIE FIND

The Merchant Tavern, like its sister restaurant Raymond’s, is all about good food—just in a more casual vibe. Look for an open kitchen and on point cocktails, and do try the vinegar pie.

NOVEL TAKE

In a province rich in culture, literature, and storytelling, do make time to browse the shelves at independent gem, Broken Books.

MERRY AND BRIGHT

Memorial University’s Botanical Garden definitely brings the magic during its annual Holiday Light Festival. Blooming good spirits, guaranteed.
