Most people who visit the Road to Yesterday Museum, which was developed and is operated by the Bay Roberts Heritage Society, are amazed at the quality of the artifacts and the displays. Although the focus of the Museum is the turn of the century mercantile history of Bay Roberts, the Museum also contains displays about the early history of the Town. Many artifacts were donated by the families of business owners.
The Christopher Pratt Gallery is acclimatized and is designed to display a permanent collection of artwork, including works by Christopher Pratt. In addition, it hosts the works of well known local artists and visiting art collections. Christopher Pratt, perhaps Newfoundland and Labrador’s most widely recognized visual artist, has roots in the town. Christine (Dawe) Pratt, his mother, was born in Bay Roberts.
Keeping with the traditional focus of Powell’s Supermarket, Nan’s Kitchen Restaurant located in Powell's Bay Roberts, offers delicious home cooked meals and friendly service. This “grocerant” area of our supermarket is newly renovated and is a warm, welcoming place to enjoy a meal with your family. Sit back with a relaxing tea or coffee, enjoy a fresh muffin or try one of our breakfast or lunch specials. Our menu is a variety of homemade soups, sandwiches, wraps, salads, burgers, chicken, hadncarfted pizza, homemade desserts and ice cream.
Nan’s Kitchen also features tasty traditional favourites like jiggs dinner, cold plates, deep fried turkey, mac and cheese, along with fish and brewis, cod au gratin, and so much more.
