The Red Shoe
The Red Shoe Pub is a restaurant located in Mabou, Nova Scotia. Open seasonally, it has been operated by Canadian musical group The Rankin Family since May 2005,[1] and is a regular host to both local and visiting Celtic musicians.[2] Artists such as Buddy MacMaster and Glenn Graham (fiddler) have played at the Red Shoe in recent years.
The pub takes its name from a reel composed by Dan R. MacDonald.[3] Though the exterior of the pub was initially decorated by two iconic red shoes, both have since disappeared, the second one having likely been stolen in September 2012.[4]
