Rocky Harbour Waterfront Dining“You're approaching Rocky Harbour's waterfront, where dinner can come with a harbour view. Fisherman's Landing on Main Street has a broad menu, but I'd look for the Newfoundland dishes: cod tongues or fish and brewis.”

Guide
Earle's is a family-operated restaurant and ice-cream parlor on Main Street in Rocky Harbour, near the water at the lower end of the village. It’s a casual meal stop for hearty Newfoundland cooking, and an easy fit between park sights when you’re hungry for something local.
Moose has long been part of its food identity: earlier menus and visitor accounts mention moose burgers, stew, pot pie and even pizza, alongside fish and chips. The current menu wasn't confirmed, so treat those as past examples rather than a promise. John and Ruby Earle opened the restaurant around 2004, and their daughters helped run the family business.
At 111 Main Street, it’s close to the waterfront, with the possibility of a view across the bay toward Gros Morne around sunset. The restaurant is listed as seasonal, but current opening dates aren’t established, so check before planning a meal outside the main visitor season.
