PUMP HOUSE
About This Spot
Stepping into PUMP HOUSE along Main Street in Shediac feels like finding a familiar neighborhood gathering spot where the hum of friendly chatter mixes effortlessly with the clink of glasses. This bar embraces a warm, easygoing spirit—a place where the pace slows just enough for genuine connection, whether you’re winding down after a day by the beach or meeting up with friends for trivia night.
The atmosphere is inviting and relaxed yet vibrant, filled with the subtle energy of locals sharing stories over thoughtfully crafted drinks. It’s clear that behind the bar, there’s a real passion for pairing flavors with moments. From the comforting sizzle of crispy chicken fingers and brisket sandwiches to the bright, refreshing notes of a grapefruit and tangerine radler or a locally brewed pale cream ale, each bite and sip feels rooted in a sense of place.
What sets PUMP HOUSE apart is the attentiveness woven into every corner of the experience. Servers here are more than just prompt; they seem to anticipate your needs with a thoughtful touch—whether it’s conjuring a bespoke mocktail for a designated driver or guiding you through a menu dotted with hearty favorites and unexpected delights. It’s a space where large groups, couples, and solo visitors alike find an easy seat at the communal table.
Part of the charm also lies in the lively but unforced social fabric: lively trivia nights spark playful competition, while quieter evenings invite lingering conversations over mussels in white wine or a shareable plate of beer-battered onion rings. The friendly, well-kept environment invites everyone in, welcoming new faces and familiar guests alike to savor the moments that make a local bar more than just a stop, but a place of belonging.

Went to Wednesday Trivia night (7pm) with some new friends. Had BBQ pizza (awesome), blueberry beer (amazing and real blueberries in it) and 4 Alarm red beer (terrific). The trivia was fun, engaging and the table with the older group cheated. No way they knew Iowa, Chubby Checker, Blues Traveller and Avril Lavigne. Lol. Our server was terrific and attentive.

This place is truly exceptional. The atmosphere is excellent, and the overall environment is welcoming, well-maintained, and enjoyable. The staff were incredibly kind and attentive. As the designated driver, I asked the server if they had any mocktails, even though none were listed on the menu, she went above and beyond by creating a mocktail on the spot using strawberries, soda, and fresh herbs. The drink was absolutely delicious. What impressed me even more was the pricing. The mocktail was charged at a very reasonable price, significantly less than I would normally expect. The service was outstanding, and the experience exceeded my expectations. I will definitely be returning and will not hesitate to recommend this establishment to everyone I know.

Loved this place! Excellent selection of beer, varied menu with something for everyone. Food was very good, substantial portions(massive Donair), very reasonable prices, and Leona our server was great. She was very helpful with our drink and menu selections and really made us feel welcome. Thanks for the great experience Leona, next time we're here we hope to see you again.

Absolutely amazing food and drinks! The service was also top notch, especially considering it was a packed house. We had had salt and pepper ribs, garlic fingers, pulled pork poutine, and our friends enjoyed a burger and salads. The beers are so flavorful

Great place to stop after a full day at the beach, food was really good and the server was verry helpful and accommodating when asking about allergies would definitely visit again

First time here and will be back. Great location and the food was great. Had no issue with our server. He was a friendly guy and checked on us often. The food was brought out fast and was hot and fresh. He brought one at our table the wrong flavour of drink and then dropped that from the bill. That was nice. Heading back in July for the Nationals and this place is on our list to return.

We had an amazing waiter, tall guy, very dynamic, didn't catch his name sadly. Steamed mussels appetizer was delicious and so were the fried pickles. My friend had the brisket sandwich and loved it.

While in Shediac for a couple of days, we visited the Pump House twice. The food was great. The menu was extensive. And our waitress Leona was marvellous. She has a great sense of humour and made sure our experience was fantastic. Great personality!!!! We vacationed here in 2023 and had a great experience (took a pic of the menu in 2923) so we wanted to do that again and Pump House did not disappoint.
