John's Lunch: 50 Years in Business - Member's Statement
CLAUDIA CHENDER: I rise today to recognize the 50th anniversary of John's Lunch. The legacy restaurant opened in summer 1969 and has been serving up famous seafood and - according to the sign - pizza ever since.
With repeat customers who have been dining there for at least 30 years, John's is a community hub and a landmark. It's a family restaurant in the truest sense of the word, and John's has been recognized nationally as having the very best fish and chips our country has to offer. Diners from Canada, the United States, and even Brazil and India have signed the guestbook, touting the delicious food and friendly hospitality Nova Scotians are known for.
Congratulations to John's Lunch, and thank you for being a staple in our community for all these years.
