Scoff Restaurant

Newfoundland & Labrador


Scoff – Newfoundland slang for a good meal – serves fancy takes on local cuisine in a cozy yet upscale setting. Salt beef comes with split pea 'fries,' smoked herring is served with marmalade, fresh toast and onion-and-fennel salad, and salt cod pierogies pair with fried onions and scruncheons (fried pork fat). A beautiful setting for original eats.
