When the Sun’s Out, Jonesies Is In

You know summer is just around the corner when you find yourself at Jonesies Take Out & Diner on a sunny Sunday afternoon

It’s always such a joy to see Jonesies owner Tammy behind the counter when we roll in, usually just off the ferry from Grand Manan Island.

I usually can’t resist their burgers but on this particular day, I was in the mood for a seafood platter and oh buoy, it was chef’s kiss!

The most perfect portion and that homemade slaw with snap peas? So good!

If you’re in Charlotte County, this is one of my top coastal takeouts to visit! Now open for the season Thursday through Sunday!
