The Foc'sle is the oldest rural tavern in Nova Scotia (Est. 1764). The decor is very inviting and has the perfect tavern atmosphere with lots of wood, unique lighting and amusing wall decorations. The best part is the Fo'c'sle burger! I am glad I waited to have my first Nova Scotian burger here. The burger comes with grilled onions, mushrooms, cheese and bacon and is only 10.95. The fries are done perfectly and are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. My friends had the crispy chicken wrap, the chowder and the club and all were very happy with their choices as well. The server Shane is particularly funny and made our lunch even more enjoyable. They have specials on certain days as well - Tuesday is burger day and trivia and Thursday is wing night. I will return for the scrumptious burger!

The Fo'c'sle Tavern is every town's answer to Cheers - everyone knows your name!
The Fo'c'sle expanded their bar business into a family restaurant that occupies the storefront facing one of the main streets in Chester. The wings are fantastic, probably the best place to stop for wings after you leave Halifax.
The beer is cold, the TV is always on - generally to a sporting event, but depending on the clientele, you'll sometimes get music videos.
Check out the live music at the Fo'c'sle - it's a great venue to hear some up and coming South Shore talent. -

Fo'c'sle Tavern is in downtown Chester. You will always find a happy crowd here at the tavern. In the summer the streets are lined with cars and bikes. It is nothing to see 50 bikes ride through the streets.
There is a large bar area with a flat screen TV for all the sport fans. Tables are scattered throughout the main area as well. I personally like the back area because I get to people watch.
Also there is a great fire place to warm you up in the winter. The tavern has been used for a few movies as well.
They do have some of The Best Homemade Fries. They are thin and great, they are always on the table for us. The food here is good, it is tavern food.
The entertainment here is great. You can find anything from live on Friday nights, auctions, fund raisers or just go with a bunch of friends.
There is lot of character packed into Fo'c'sle Tavern and a lot of characters as well. All Good!!!!
