• Steakhouse • Charlottetown
Booked 21 times today
Donald McIsaac erected this beautiful three storey brick building in 1862-1864 on Sims Corner, so called because the property had been in the possession of Thomas and Charlotte Alchorn Sims from 1806. The most colourful owner and occupant of the building was Mr. P.P. Gillis, who ran the “Red Pharmacy” between 1895 and 1910. A drug-store in the front half of the building and a reputed conviviality shop in the rear, proved very popular with local businessmen while prohibition was in effect. This location has also been a large family home, apartments and a barber shop. In the fall of 2005 local restaurateur Murphy's purchased the building and began the process of renovating to create what you are experiencing today. Murphy Hospitality Group is proud to present you with Prince Edward Island’s first authentic Steakhouse, and “Atlantic Canada’s Premier Steakhouse Experience”.

    Tammy was our server and she went above and beyond for us! We has reservations, and someone was in the seats she wanted us to have, so she let us stay outside until the table was ready...which took a bit, then she moved us inside to another table)which we agreed to) and as soon as we were seated, the other people left, so she moved us. It was so nice to celebrate my husbands 50th birthday at Clamdiggers restaurant. The food was fantastic, we had the Ocean Bake, Beach House Platter, fish and chips as well as Steak. It was all great! We will be back for sure.

    Chelsea, the food & beverage manager is the most kind, caring and pleasant person my husband and I encountered on our trip. We came to cape breton for our honeymoon, and since it was early may there was not much open. We booked a reservation for dinner at Whits at cabot Golf course, as my husband loves golf and this was a bucket list thing for him. Chelsea called me the morning of our reso to inform me that there was a mistake and they will actually be closed- the reservations were not blocked off mistakingly. But she knew it was a special occasion- our honeymoon. She genuinely felt terrible. and was willing to do anything it took to still make a memorable experience for us. She offered to have the Chef make something to- go for us as there weren’t other food options nearby open. When we got there she was so very kind and gracious. She offered to give us a private tour walking onto the greens of the course - which made my husbands whole trip. They prepared a delicious meal for us to- go included with starters, mains, deserts and drinks. I can’t say enough about this establishment but specifically Chelsea. They are lucky to have someone who is so passionate about what they do. Thank you!!
