With our fabulous location and casual, friendly atmosphere, Snug Harbour is a popular spot in Port Credit, Mississauga. As a result our seating in particular during the busy summer months is available on a first-come first-served basis.

My wife planned a surprise birthday party for me here. I had read this website when she told me she wanted to take me here for dinner and I told her no. She talked me into it though. Good thing too. Not only would our party of 20 friends have been confused but I would have missed out on a great restaurant.
My wife spoke to the owners of the restaurant and they were very friendly and nice.
The server was very attentive and friendly.
The food arrived quickly and was absolutely amazing.
People ordered everything from Lobster, to Fish and Chips, to Clam Chowder. Every person inour party was impressed with the food.
If service is going to be slow then it will be when you have a party of 22 people. If the service is bad it will really show through with a large party. If the kitchen is slow, same thing. None of that happened to us and the restaurant was full.
Do not be fooled by the bad reviews. Snug Harbour is a hidden gem. I have lived in Mississauga most of my life and I wish I had found this place sooner.
My Sister and boyfriend suggested it to my wife because they know how much I like seafood. They had been 3 or 4 times before this and said that they were always impressed with everything.
Went for dinner because they have the best location in Mississauga. The appetizers were both deep-fried, but tasty. Our server was able to suggest some excellent entrees which my wife and I shared, and would order again. They brought out a desert tray with visual samples of their menu, very enticing! A reasonable wait (half hour for a seat on the patio) for a very busy place, but they do have a great view!

The view is great during a nice summer day. The food is not bad, but not great either. the thing that kills me about this place is how bad the service is. summer after summer we go to this place thinking that we'll give it another chance and the service always sucks. 10 min for someone to greet us, another 10 for the drinks to come and the food never comes. I don't what to suggest. i guess if you like the lake and want to seat by the water is good, just don't expect anything special.
Go for the view but not much more. We should have stopped after the oysters, they were great but you really don't have to do much when serving raw food. The fish from the fish and chips plate was terribly dried out..couldn't finish it, tasted too bad. My husband ordered the Mussels with White Wine and Garlic. The server accidentally spilled the mussel juice into the bread bowl, looked like bread soup...and actually asked if he should bring us another bowl...Duh!!!. The Mussels were over cooked and the shells weren't scrubbed. My water glass sat empty for 30min during the meal. My husband and i finished eating at the same time, a bus boy took his plates away but left mine.
For a place that has so much potential management certainly doesn't step up to the plate. Instead of training the bunch of high school servers hired for the summer, they allow the wait staff to stroll around in over sized pants and extremely short mini skirts, unable to strike a smile or offer a menu suggestion. I'll be back for the view and the oysters, but that's all i'll bother spending at Snug Harbour.
