It was only two miles from the ferry to the Holiday Inn Express in Saint John.
The accommodations were excellent and as we checked in, we inquired about a local place for dinner. The front desk person offered us advice and we got directions to Britts a pub in downtown Saint John which, we were told, was within walking distance. We were told that it was about 20 minutes. Well it really was. And the walk was on a nicely paved walking path from an area near the hotel. We used a paper map and the trip actually took about 30 minutes but was not bad through an unknown city.
Britts was a standard local pub on a side street and the food was good. Since we were not driving back we elected to have some alcohol with our meal. It was sort of amazing that both bills came to almost the same amount, about $60. And no, we did not drink that much, one drink and a sandwich each.
I said it was a standard local pub. I really can't say that since we only went to the one pub. The experience was good and, even though a bit pricey, we enjoyed the place and the walk back.
