Chez Jean Dairy Twirl - Belliveaus Cove

We live in the area and Dairy Twirl is one of our favorites. Last time we got the Speck Cheeseburger. Two thick hand-shaped patties, bacon, fully dressed. Delicious. The dining room overlooks the bay, so you can't find a fantastic view. The staff is always friendly and welcoming. The Dairy Twirl is a local treasure!

I recently had a banana split at this restaurant. When I asked where the bananas were, I was told they were at the bottom. There were only about four small slices of banana. I also ordered a hamburger and onion rings. The burger was very small and not bad, but at $22, it felt expensive. The space was clean.

The service was terrible, prices were high, and portions were very small. The staff were incredibly rude, the restaurant was dirty, and the food tasted like old, rancid oil.

The scallops they serve are excellent. I will definitely make sure to visit this restaurant when I am in Nova Scotia. I try to go at least once a year, sometimes even twice. The ice cream is a nice added bonus. The dining area is large and I really enjoy the view.

Putting all biases aside with growing up in Belliveaus Cove, my trips here never fail to impress and satisfy me! As soon as I walk in the cashiers are there and ready to greet us, the customers with refreshing attitudes. The cashiers are mostly younger ranging from teenagers to early twenties with a customer base of anywhere from the younger teenage years to elders. I mention this because of how well their customer services are. They are adaptable especially in a French speaking community to speak English and also great working role models. The restaurant is at a beautiful location looking out to the ocean, very clean, and all-round great atmosphere. Everytime I drive by or go in, there are always people enjoying one of Clare's best ice cream and poutines! Even when dining in, the customers themselves are incredibly friendly and social. This business has created an enjoyable environment for all and bless it that it has became a great meeting spot for elders to go out regularly.
