After almost thirty years of business, you can imagine that Moby Dick Restaurant has seen a lot of changes in White Rock. We have managed to keep up with the times by doing a number of renovations, and this helps Moby Dick remain the most popular destination for fish and chips and seafood in the area.
When you come to Moby Dick, you can be assured of a modern comfortable restaurant experience, and the time tested quality of our food!
Our 1930's photos come as a gift from a regular customer, Mrs. Mona Hardy, a resident of the area since she was a small child. Thefirst photo shows the site of present day Moby Dick, when the building was a grocery store (the "Meats" sign) owned by her father. That's him in the foreground by the car; we think he might be putting quarters in the parking meter, but we're not certain about that.
The next photo, from 1934, shows Mr. Hardy standing proudly in the door of his shop. On the left of the photo can be seen the Leak residence, behind a vacant lot.
The third photo shows the front of the shop with a 1930 Pontiac parked out front You can see a bit more of "Charlie's Fish and Chips" restaurant next door, Charlie Davey Proprietor.
