Goodie Shop — Restaurant in Miramichi

I, regretfully, must change my review after the painfully bad experience we had on our 3rd visit where we decided to try lunch. Both my soup (small bowl of chowder) and lobster sandwich were no good... Not only did I get charged $9 for a $4.95 soup (price according to the menu), but the $15 sandwich for some reason ended up at $17 and was pathetic in portion size on run of the mill grocery store bread... It was tiny and I left feeling ripped off big time. The soup flavour was great, but the price and portion were severely lacking.

I could shrug that off but then my fiance ordered a cheeseburger with fries and the fries were limp and not tasty, passable as best but even fast food would have been better... The server asked if she wanted the works and my fiance said yes but no pickle or relish... So her CHEESEburger came with literally ONLY relish, no cheese even! The flavour, size and overall presentation of her meal was not good across the board.

Normally we would have spoken up about the multiple issues but we didn't have time due to an impending appointment, but especially since the service was going at about half speed despite it not being very busy at all.

1st visit: Very good breakfast, can't wait to come back and try out their lunch stuff. Phenomenal service too!

2nd visit: We came back for breakfast again, after we have tried almost all other restaurants serving full breakfasts in town, and concluded that Goodie shop does the best coffee and sunny side up eggs. Service was great again, and super fast since it wasn't as busy this time around. Noticed the part of the menu for breakfast buffet on weekends so going to have to try that...

Would give 0 stars if possible. We didn't even get our food as we had to leave because the workers were not wearing masks, both in front and out back, and it didn't seem like they were observant of whether guests were either. No one made sure we had signed in or sanitized our hands. When we asked to simply pay for the drinks we had amd told them we were leaving because of the lack of masks, the worker (with her mask down and standing beside the plexiglass) looked confused and asked who. When we said her for one, she claimed the plexi was enough, despite her walking around the restaurant with it down as well. Overall, not a good time, and will...

I find the food here to be a bit hit and miss, sometimes it's really good, sometimes they really screw it up (like the soggy microwaved banana and strawberries on my waffle). Their portion size is smaller than a lot of other similar style restaurants in the area. You get just enough, so you are able to eat it all ... but sometimes I like a good bag of leftovers for home, so I always kind of feel like I paid too much for what I got. The service is generally really good though and the waitresses know what...
