The Blue Mussel Cafe (BMC) is a well-loved food destination for Islanders and visitors alike, thanks to the incredible trifecta of warm hospitality, stunning waterside views of Rustico Bay, and super fresh seafood and produce.

Take Some Patio Time<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes the best way to enjoy an afternoon is to make ZERO plans and just go with the flow. On PEI, that often means finding the nearest patio, ordering up a selection of cold beverages and soaking up the sunshine while you chat with your favourite people. Sounds pretty sweet, eh?  Trust us, it\u2019s bliss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pssst, if you find yourself patio-ing it up in Charlottetown, consider levelling things up with a lil\u2019 patio hopping around the very walkable downtown core. But, like, don\u2019t force it. Only hop if it goes with the flow, you know\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PRO TIP: For waterside patio vibes, check out JC\u2019s Tiki Bar<\/a> in Charlottetown or The Knot<\/a> in Summerside! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fulfil Your Ice Cream Dreams<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Hot summer days call for cool ice cream treats! Lucky for you, the Island has a whole slew of le-gen-dairy spots serving up indulgent cones of creamy goodness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The PEI dairy bar is an experience unto itself. No matter where you are on the Island, you can ask a local where the best ‘dairy bar’ is. They\u2019ll know exactly what you\u2019re talking about and they\u2019ll very likely have a strong opinion about where to go! Now, that being said, there are a couple of \u2018famous\u2019 PEI dairy bars, the first and foremost of which is the Frosty Treat<\/a> in Kensington. The Richmond Dairy Bar <\/a>in, you guessed it, Richmond, is also well-loved by many. There are, however, a whole whack of dairy bars across PEI and each has its own loyal following! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re looking for a hit of nostalgia, epic flavour creations, and a beautiful setting for your ice cream experience, make sure you check out Holman\u2019s Ice Cream Parlour<\/a> in Summerside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And, of course, a PEI summer isn\u2019t complete until you\u2019ve had a cone of our famous COWS Ice Cream<\/a>! No matter what COWS location you land at, you\u2019re sure to be wooed by the fun flavours, homemade waffle cones, and bevvy of punny merchandise on offer. And, yes, the ice cream is incredibly decadent but don\u2019t let that stop you from getting a double scoop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dig into a PEI Lobster Supper AND a PEI Lobster Roll<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Earlier we mentioned the PEI Lobster Crawl. Well, while you\u2019re out \u2018crawling\u2019, we humbly suggest you indulge in two classic PEI lobster experiences – The PEI Lobster Supper <\/strong>and the PEI Lobster Roll.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are plenty of variations on the PEI lobster supper, all involving a feast of PEI lobster along with fixins’ such as steamed mussels, fresh rolls, PEI potatoes, and dessert. You can endeavour to put together your own lobster supper, find a way to snag an invite to someone else’s lobster boil OR dine out! When it comes to a classic PEI lobster supper, you can’t go wrong at New Glasgow Lobster Suppers<\/a>, they’ve been serving up this Island treat for 65 years! Or, if you prefer a buffet-style experience, check out Fisherman’s Wharf<\/a> in North Rustico!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Every Islander has their own (generally strong) opinion on what makes for a great lobster roll. Some prefer a minimalist approach, while others prefer a saucier experience. What everyone can agree on is that it HAS to be packed full of PEI lobster and the butter bun has got to hold its own under the weight of that lobster. You’ll find PEI lobster rolls gracing menus at restaurants, cafes, and seafood shacks from tip-to-tip. We’re not going to dare wade into the debate about who has the best lobster roll on PEI, all we’ll say is we have the best lobster in the world! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Explore the Island Walk <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Island Walk is nothing short of epic. This 700 km walking trail loops around PEI and takes approximately 32 days to complete if you walk 20-25 kilometres per day. Don’t have that much time or stamina? No worries, you can enjoy a section or sections of the Island Walk, which will take you along the red cliffs, much of the Confederation Trail, beaches, red dirt roads, and quiet secondary roads.

The trail intertwines through PEI\u2019s two major cities, Charlottetown and Summerside, as well as through many small communities throughout the Island.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Located in Central Coastal PEI, the 5\/15 Fermentation Trail features five of Prince Edward Island’s incredible craft beverage makers, each within a 15-minute drive of the next! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The trail includes stops at Deep Roots Distillery, Island Honey Wine Company, Barnone Brewery, Riverdale Orchard & Cidery, and Matos Winery. This is a self-guided tour and you are encouraged to enjoy it at your own pace, while also ensuring you have a sober driver to chauffeur you around!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tyne Valley Oyster Festival<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Slurpin\u2019 PEI  oysters and stompin\u2019 along to incredible bands, that\u2019s the Tyne Valley Oyster Festival in a nutshell (or an oyster shell, if you will).

That\u2019s right, the festival is actually TWO big celebrations packed into 5 full days – the Rock the Boat MusicFest and the Canadian Oyster Shucking Championship. And really, what better pairing is there than PEI oysters and rock music?!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This community-driven festival has been running since 1973. And you can bet your bottom dollar, it\u2019s become THE party of the summer for Western PEI. Be there or be square. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Enjoy New PEI Potatoes As They Were Meant to be Eaten<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Boiled, tossed in a little butter and sprinkled with a dash of salt and pepper. In our humble opinion, that’s how newly harvested PEI potatoes<\/a> are meant to be enjoyed. August is prime time here on PEI for getting your first fill of new PEI potatoes – make sure you buy more than you think you’ll eat, because they are addictive! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

PEI\u2019s premiere culinary festival is celebrating its 15th anniversary and you\u2019re invited!  All sorts of exciting changes are in store this year and we just know you\u2019re going to love everything about the 2023 edition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For starters, the Festival will be held over a concentrated two-week period in early October. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With a wide array of larger-scale and intimate events, unique excursions, and interactive experiences, the 2023 festival will offer up something for every taste and budget.

Picnic on the Beach <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Make your own picnic plans for the beach or elevate your experience and leave the planning to Cordial Picnics. Either way, you\u2019re in for a treat!

If you decide to do it yourself, consider picking up your picnic goodies at one of PEI\u2019s local farmers\u2019 markets or a local food shop, such as Kent Street Market. Those in the Cavendish area may want to stop in at the Olde Village Bakery in North Rustico, we hear they have charcuterie and cheese boxes along with scrumptious pastries! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you opt to leave the planning to Cordial Picnics<\/a>, get ready to be pampered! Also, be sure to bring your camera with you, because you\u2019re going to want to capture the beautiful setting they create for your ultimate PEI picnic. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An Unforgettable Farm-to-Table Experience
<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The bounty of PEI\u2019s harvest is at its peak in the summer months (and early fall!). You can certainly enjoy the fruits of our farmers\u2019 and fishers\u2019 labour at many Island restaurants, where chefs are often dedicated to sourcing locally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you want to take it up a notch, however, a true farm-to-table experience awaits at the Inn at Bay Fortune\u2019s Fireworks<\/a> restaurant or The Table Culinary Studio<\/a> in New London. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Created by Chef Michael Smith and hosted by his \u2018fire brigade\u2019, Fireworks<\/a> is a culinary experience like no other. Delivered over a four-hour period, it includes a culinary farm tour, oyster hour, sabre toast with sparkling wine, a sit-down multi-course meal (all cooked with fire) and a house-made marshmallow roast!  The featured ingredients in every element are harvested from their Culinary Farm, foraged nearby or sourced from local farmers and fishers.

The Table Culinary Studio<\/a> is located in a beautifully renovated country church overlooking pastoral farmlands in the tiny village of New London. Led by award-winning Executive Chef Hunter Guindon, each week\u2019s new seven-course menu is entirely inspired by the bounty of ingredients available for harvest in the area. Hyper-local and always innovative, an evening at The Table is one of the PEI summer memory books!  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Visit a Roadside Vegetable Stand<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Skip the grocery store and go straight to the source when you visit one of the Island’s many roadside vegetable stands<\/a>. Some will specialize in one product (usually potatoes!), while others will feature a selection of in-season vegetables, fruits, and other delicious farm goods. Make sure you have cash on hand, as many of these little spots don’t take credit or debit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Go Deep Sea Fishing<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Here on PEI, when we say it’s ‘fish for your supper’ night, we’re not talking about fishing around the fridge for leftovers. We mean it quite literally – go fish around in ocean waters and reel in your meal!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don’t know a PEI fisher that’ll take you out in their boat? No worries, there are several deep-sea fishing outfits across the Island that will happily show you the ropes on their boat and help you sort out your dinner plans. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check out our tour with Joey’s Deep Sea Fishing in Rustico<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n


Attend the PEI International Shellfish Festival
<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s a shell-ebration like no other when the PEI International Shellfish Festival sets up in Charlottetown for 4 days of seriously epic food, music, and competition that you don\u2019t want to miss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the day, the Festival plays host to high-calibre and high-stakes industry competitions including oyster shucking, a mussel sock tying championship, a potato chowder competition and and the not-to-be-missed Garland Canada International Chef Showdown! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

At night, the lights go down and the volume goes up under the Festival\u2019s \u2018big white tent\u2019. That means it\u2019s time to dance the night away to the tunes of incredible bands that know how to amp up the party! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

That’s all we have for now, friends, but it’s a fact that the list of things to do on PEI during the summer is a mile-long.
