Tide & Tales Bistro and Bookstore — Restaurant in North Rustico

Serious safety concern – please be cautious! I visited Tide & Tales Bistro while on holiday, planning to enjoy a latte, but unfortunately left with a serious leg injury. While walking past their display cabinet, I cut my leg on a sharp, exposed piece of metal. The injury required 7 stitches, a tetanus shot, and has left me unable to move properly for weeks.

The staff on site were somewhat helpful and mentioned they were already aware of this hazard. However, it’s deeply concerning that management has not addressed such a serious safety issue, especially one that could easily injure another customer.

Best place in north rustico to have food. Loved their avocado salad with pomelo and nice vinaigrette drizzle so refreshing after a sunny day in the beach.

Fresh cut fries with skin was droll worthy. It stayed crisp for longer time with perfect softness inside and not too salty. Indian taste buds need ketchup for all thing fried but these fries are made really good you don’t need a ketchup.

Chef’s linguine is must try, nice velvety pasta served with perfectly toasted bread.

“the best butter toasted sourdough bread” ❤️ they served with pasta.

Some locals were raving about their cheese cake but we couldn’t try it. An old couple suggested us try their cheese cake but it was sold out.

Overall a beautiful place with nice and spacious outdoor seating to dine when you are in...
