Magnetic Hill Wharf Village
About This Spot
Stepping into Magnetic Hill Wharf Village feels like entering a lively coastal retreat tucked beside a tranquil pond. The village hums with a gentle energy—quiet enough to relax but vibrant with bursts of color from its charming storefronts and the natural world surrounding the wharf. Here, the pace invites leisurely exploration, whether you’re winding along the colorful boardwalk, watching geese glide across mirrored waters, or simply settling in to soak up the atmosphere.
More than just a shopping mall, this is a place where each small store carries its own character, creating a patchwork of discoveries that feel personal and local. From quaint gift shops to inviting eateries, the village encourages you to slow down and savor small moments—whether that’s chatting with a shop owner, sampling a freshly prepared meal, or sharing a bench while watching the world settle into a comfortable rhythm.
The allure extends beyond the shops and restaurants; it’s woven into the seasonal rhythms of the place. In the warmer months, the village bursts with a lively spirit under open skies, making it ideal for family outings or a quiet afternoon of wandering. The restaurant by the wharf, with its welcoming hospitality and fresh, simple fare, offers a perfect pause—a place to enjoy a shared meal where the flavors complement the gentle breezes and scenic views.
Magnetic Hill Wharf Village captures a small slice of coastal charm infused with playful brightness and natural beauty. It doesn’t rush you; instead, it offers a deliberate, mindful invitation to linger, discover, and connect with the subtle joys of the moment.

Beautiful spot! Loved the bright colours! Be aware of Fall hours! There was only one store open during the week. Sep 11

Beautiful experience at Magnetic Hill Wharf Village and driving at Magnetic Hill. It's an interesting illusion having to watch the car drive on its own uphill. A must do activity. The wharf village is very colorful and lively. Great way to spend few hours for all ages.

It's such a unique experience! It's a wharf surrounding a pond with geese and ducks. The other side of the wharf is lined with small stores each with their own character. There are places to eat or just sit and enjoy the ambience. If you're in Moncton it's definitely worth stopping in!

Second review (though many more visits since first) June 25 2024 Both my lovely wife Pat and I still enjoy this little village. Eating at their wharf restaurant we decided to go with splitting a two fish and single order of chips dinner. We both thoroughly enjoyed our meals. Pat's not into coleslaw so I ate that and found it delicious as well. Not a crumb was wasted. Always look forward to going back. First visit June 29 2023 I enjoyed the fish & chips with beer that I ordered. Fish was lightly battered, moist and flaky white inside. There were only 3 beer types to choose from. I was content with the Coor's Light (didn't pay attention to the other 2 types). When I looked over to get a picture of my wife's (Pat) meal she had already eaten her lobster roll. She did state there was a bit too much mayonnaise, no celery and no onions (she can be particular). She did enjoy the bottled water. Both of us agreed that there was too many fries. One share would have been more than enough for the 2 of us. Excellent fries though. Enjoyed sitting inside to eat on this hot June 29th day. Plenty of seating on this particular day, inside and out. We enjoyed our stroll through the remainder of the village. Both split a beavertail treat over by the splash pad area. Tastie treat before driving to previously arranged engagements (otherwise we would have stayed longer. Beautiful place.

An interesting place to visit . We were at the Magnetic Hill and the Wharf Village in September. We enjoyed the atmosphere and the colorful village . It's a pity that the Wharf Village closed down for the season at the end of September and will open in May 2023. You can still experience the Magnetic Hill by driving along the Magnetic Hill Road.

We enjoyed our time here on the wharf. We took advantage of all the photo ops available, wandered through the shops and spent some time feeding the ducks/ geese. It was a beautiful day and a beautiful spot.
