Snug Harbour, Waterfront restaurant in Port Credit, Mississauga, Canada.
Snug Harbour is a restaurant on the waterfront of Port Credit, a neighbourhood in Mississauga, Ontario, positioned where the Credit River meets Lake Ontario. The building has indoor dining rooms and an outdoor terrace that sits right at the edge of the river.
The restaurant opened in the 1980s, during a period when Port Credit was starting to develop its waterfront for public use. It was among the first places to bring regular dining to the stretch of water between the river mouth and the lake shore.
The name Snug Harbour reflects the sheltered feel of the Credit River mouth, where boats dock nearby and the water is always visible from the tables. Eating here feels like joining the local waterfront routine rather than simply visiting a restaurant.
The restaurant sits along the Port Credit waterfront path, which makes it easy to find on foot from the nearby parking area or from the promenade. On warm days, the outdoor terrace fills up quickly, so arriving early or booking ahead helps.
The terrace is positioned close enough to the water that boats passing along the river are visible at eye level from most seats. This means boat-watching happens without any effort, simply as part of sitting down to eat.
