Muggee’s Place offers a fantastic variety of delicious food to satisfy just about any craving. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, making it a great spot whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or sitting down for a relaxed meal. The service was friendly, attentive, fun and made me feel right at home. From the Owner to the servers to the chef's that make it all happen , kudos to you all for all the hard work. If you live in the area or you are passing through to head to Twillingate or Gander and your belly is rumbly or your craving a drink on a patio with a view I would highly recommend stopping into Muggee’s Place.

A little gem that is close to the Fogo Ferry. Large room, nice balcony but too cold to go out. Friendly checkin. Meal was fine, nothing special but perfectly acceptable. Definitely recommend if you want the early ferry.

Large clean and comfortable room. The balcony had a great view of the sunset over the water. The Wi-Fi signal wasn't great but we found that was everywhere we went in Newfoundland except St. John's. There was some confusion about dates but it was promptly resolved.
