  1. New Brunswick is nicknamed “The Picture Province” for its beautiful scenery and friendly people and “The Loyalist Province”, as most English People in New Brunswick are descendants of Loyalists.
  2. Franklin D. and Eleanor Roosevelt’s family used to have a summer cottage on Campobello Island, which is just off the coast of Maine. It is now preserved as the Roosevelt Campobello International Park, owned by the governments of both Canada and the US.
  3. Shediac is home to the World’s Largest Lobster statue. This statue is 10.5 m (34 ft.) long and 4.5 m (15 ft.) high, weighing in at a whopping 90 tonnes! It makes for a great photo.
  4. Grand Manan Island in the Fundy Isles is one of the top birding spots in North America.
  5. Grand Manan Island is also the Dulse Capital of the World. Dulse is an edible dried seaweed with many healthy properties, containing many minerals and a variety of vitamins.
  6. New Brunswick has more than 55 remaining covered bridges and Kings County is considered the Covered Bridge Capital of Atlantic Canada. The bridges that are standing today are living examples of the pride of craftsmanship, heritage, engineering and design of our forefathers.
  7. New Brunswick has more than 60 lighthouses and is famous for its inland lighthouse system that dots its inland rivers. People love getting photos of the lighthouses!

  9. Fiddleheads (edible, tightly coiled ferns that resemble the spiral end of a violin or fiddle) are a New Brunswick delicacy. Freshly picked from the riverbanks in the spring, they are wonderful served with Atlantic salmon! You’ll see them on some menus!
  10. New Brunswick has the warmest saltwater beaches in Canada. However, if you want to be “comfortable”, you’ll want to visit during the summer months.
  11. The “Longest Covered Bridge in the World” is located in Hartland, New Brunswick. It measures 390 metres (1,282 feet) long. There’s even a brand of chips called Covered Bridge Potato Chips. I don’t think this qualifies as New Brunswick facts but we can certainly recommend buying a bag while you’re there as they are very good!
  12. New Brunswick is home to the largest ocean tidal whirlpool in the western hemispheres. It is located off the coast of Deer Island and is named the ‘Old Sow’. It is also the second largest whirlpool in the world, after one in Norway.

Every day, 160 billion tons of water flow into and out of the bay, more than the combined volume of all the rivers in the world. If you visit some of the towns along the Bay of Fundy, look at the docks. At low tide, you’ll often see boats on the bottom of the sea. A few hours later, they are floating much higher!
  17. The Village Historique Acadien is a living history museum showcasing the daily life of Acadians in New Brunswick from 1770 to 1949.
  18. One of the most famous sights in New Brunswick is Hopewell Rocks, a group of rock towers standing 12 to 21 meters in height (40 to 70 feet) on the Bay of Fundy coast. These are caused by erosion from the bay’s famously high tides. They are also known as the Flowerpot Rocks, or simply “The Rocks.”
  19. However, in February of 2022, New Brunswick’s iconic Flowerpot Rock on Fundy Trail toppled into the sea in a storm. Don’t worry though. There are still other rock formations to see.

Moving on to the next, we’ve got Pizza Delight. You’ve probably seen Pizza Delight on this website’s many pizza restaurant lists. This delightful pizza restaurant has been all around New Brunswick, bringing about one of the tastiest pizzas you can eat. Reviews say it is the best pizza joint ever, with impeccable service and a fantastic atmosphere. Other reviews claim Pizza Delight delights them with more than just pizza but equally delicious food.

For those of you who don’t like to eat meat but are looking for a restaurant that’s easily accessible with a familiar menu, Pizza Delight should land at the top of your list. Second, Pizza Delight has a kids’ menu. Although most pizza joints are kid-friendly, having a kids’ menu leverages your dining experience with kids more. It’s also applicable to people with small appetites. And since Pizza Delight is a chain pizza restaurant, you can be assured of their food’s quality and prices. Additionally, Pizza Delight has a liquor selection, too! Whether you’re a wine or beer person, Pizza Delight will serve it delightfully on your table.

Greco Pizza is yet another Atlantic Canadian household name. Greco Pizza is “home to Atlantic Canada’s #1 choice for pizza,” and those are their words, not mine. Truly enough, with branches all over Atlantic Canada, Greco Pizza has been the top choice for Canadians and tourists. It can be easily spotted, accessible, and has the best prices. But more than that, this pizza joint doesn’t accept any reservations. Although Greco Pizza doesn’t have a kids’ menu for kids and people with small appetites, the restaurant is kid-friendly, and the menu items are always shareable. 

Greco Pizza is your usual Canadian pizza restaurant. You’ll see an abundance of pizza selections, garlic fingers, oven subs, chicken wings, and donairs on their menu — all of which are best paired with the best pie in the world. Greco Pizza’s interior is a little bland, but you can count on their menu items (especially their pizza!) to be the best-tasting ones you’ll ever have. Greco Pizza is one of the go-to pizza chain restaurants in Atlantic Canada, which is also one reason one branch is erected in the beautiful but small city of Campbellton. 

 

 

With only a meager selection of three pizza joints in Campbellton, which will land on your Campbellton itinerary? If you’re staying here for a few days, you can try them all and figure out which is the best for your taste buds. From a local pizzeria to two pizza chain restaurants that have stood the test of time and the test of Atlantic Canadians’ taste preferences, you’re at no disadvantage here. Campbellton included only the best pizza restaurants in their small but charming city. It’s up to you to choose which door you will walk in.
