St. Johns, Canada
Merchant Tavern
On Water Street in downtown St. John's, Merchant Tavern has earned back-to-back recognition on the Opinionated About Dining Casual North America list, placing it among the continent's most closely watched neighbourhood restaurants. Chef Jeremy Charles shapes a menu around Newfoundland's larder — wild game, North Atlantic seafood, foraged ingredients — within a setting that reads as both historic and considered. Open Tuesday through Saturday from 5 pm.
