What NHjo likes about Bistro East:
A town citizen told me that this place was recently bought by a friend of his, so I figured I'd try it out. I had coffee, two poached eggs, bacon, beans, fried potato tots, and toast everything was great! The serving was ample enough to be my main meal of the day. Nice ambiance and views, friendly service, reasonable prices. View all feedback. What David S doesn't like about Bistro East:
There was a long wait to get the meal (close to an hour) and the servers did apologize for the wait but then the meal was disappointing. My husband had the steak and it was tough and he got tired of chewing it and left a portion of it even though it was quite expensive. Both our vegetables were undercooked. The carrots and potatoes were very crunchy. For the price of the main meals the food was not acceptable. View all feedback.

read moreBistro East has recently undergone a change in management. While some customers were not impressed with the new menu items, others found the food to be delicious and the staff to be friendly and attentive. Particularly praised were the gluten-free options available, with many customers appreciating the ability to enjoy a meal without worrying about gluten. The pizzas were highlighted as a standout item, with mention of thin, crispy crusts and tasty toppings. Despite some mixed reviews on service, overall Bistro East seems to offer a pleasant dining experience in Annapolis Royal.

read moreFood was good. It was busy, so staff were challenged to keep up with both takeout orders and dining room customers.Beautiful view of the Annapolis River.
Poor service waitress very obviously did not want to be there. Delivered our pizza to wrong table. Never did ask for drink order.
Wonderful food (fresh made pasta and hand tossed pizza with real cheese not that rubber everybody else uses). Worth the trip, even in the off season.
The lunch was yummy. But the Caesar salad was one of the best I've ever had. Thanks Rob Justin for the great service!!!
