On the Boardwalk Café & Wine
It was late 2020 when Clare and Allison McCain opened their unique culinary destination in our charming rural town, a once-abandoned convenience store and gas station magically transformed into what we now proudly call On The Boardwalk Café & Wine.

Clare and Allison (whose backgrounds are in medicine and engineering) never imagined they’d find themselves restaurateurs, but somehow found themselves drawn into the world of fine dining.

With much help from a very talented team of culinary and drink experts, they embarked on a mission to introduce world-class cuisine to their community, with the ultimate goal of providing an escape for young families seeking a break from life’s hectic pace of modern life; a big city cultural and culinary experience found in the cozy New Brunswick hamlet of Florenceville-Bristol.
