We arrived at Baffin Bay Cafe as a result of the King's Inn being closed for the holidays, which was on our itinerary simply by default. I mention this to emphasize that we weren?t disappointed to be redirected I look at situations like this as simply an opportunity for something unexpected. Coincidentally a lady recommend the Baffin Bay Cafe earlier in our trip so I wasn?t at all reluctant to go. When we arrived we didn?t have reservations which we found out were required during the couple weeks that the King?s Inn is closed due simply to all the redirected business going to the Baffin Bay Cafe. We conceded that we wanted to eat and would settle for an outdoor seating even though it was a little too cool. It was a bit disheartening while we ate we could watch all the tables in the restaurant and notice three tables that were never seated while we remained out in the under lighted cold. It wasn?t until after we ordered that we were informed by a neighboring outdoor table (a local that had never heard of the reservation situation) that the specialty of the house was their family style ?seafood by the pound?. To be brief none of the menu items sounded great and what we ordered was just as unimpressive. As we left my wife confronted the boy at the register/host desk about the empty tables. The boy was rude, changed his story four times and then stated that we could have waited for an indoor table, a choice we were never presented with upon our arrival. Fortunately our waitress Angie was a wonderful service person and pleasant. Angie is the only saving grace of the Baffin Bay Cafe. Skip it and take a chance somewhere else. They appear to have too much default business and really don?t need to do too much menu wise to impress. We won?t be back.
Pros: It was open
Cons: Food not good and some bad service
