The Chief Commanda has been a staple in North Bay's Marina for over twenty years, serving as a bar, restaurant, and tourist attraction under various managements after being decommissioned and relocated from Callander Bay.
In 2013, our family team saw an opportunity to take over the property and the aging vessel. Two local brothers, along with their experienced food and beverage team, embraced the challenge to revive the "old girl." We kept it simple, renaming it The Boat North Bay—a family-owned local business. We pride ourselves on being food-focused, community-sensitive, and tourist-friendly, committed to providing the best service, products, and experiences.
We take great pride in our roots and our achievements over the past five seasons. We are mindful of our rich history and strive each year to ensure our guests have a wonderful experience with us, time and time again.

    They ran out of half the items we wanted to order which wasn't unexpected, though with a short menu it made it hard for our group of 7 to order. To make matters unacceptable was hearing the kitchen loudly complain about us and others who were ordering items they didn't have. Loud swearing and insults were audible in the dining areas outside and I'm not exactly sure why insults are needed when we don't know what's not available. I would say was said but it would get flagged on this app.

    We showed up at the time we were supposed to and the place was closed and fence up all around, couldn't get in. Double checked it was the correct address. Tried to call and no one answered the phone.

    The food, like most places in North Bay was good, not GREAT. Good place to eat to watch the sunset though.
