The sea has much to teach us: its tides foretell the lunar cycle, its salt treats us to delicious shark jerky, and its colourful creatures prove that nature looks better in Blu-ray. Celebrate the big salty puddle's sagacity with today's Groupon: for $15, you get $30 worth of marine cuisine and drinks at Baker's Cove Seafood Restaurant located in Waterloo.

Winner of Waterloo Chronicle's 2009 Readers’ Choice awards for Best Seafood (gold award) and Best Fish and Chips (diamond award), Baker's Cove Seafood Restaurant has been serving underwater specialties made to order using fresh ingredients and organic elements since 1986. The menu of oceanic delights gathers a bevy of appetizers ($6.99–$11.99) such as corn fritters and crab cakes along its edible reef. Featured dishes ($10.95–$22.50) make a splash in the deep with poached salmon and fresh fruit salsa, sweet Cajun haddock, and honey garlic halibut. Ex-patriots can refuel after their swim across the pond with the award-winning English-style fish and chips ($7.95–$26.95), which come grilled or deep-fried depending on the fish's preference for hot oil treatments. Flavour caddies include sides ($1.75–$4.50) such as lemon herbed mashed potatoes and coleslaw. Gluten-free dinner choices are also available.

Baker's Cove also serves a selection of sailor-pleasing suds with domestic brews for $4.99 and imported comrades for $5.99+. The comfortable, nautically themed interior provides a convivial atmosphere perfect for on-land basket weavers with submerged sporting aspirations.

• Love their Halibut – A TripAdvisor reviewer
• I've been here many times, and they serve the best fish and chips in town, hands down! Recently they added some new stuff to their menu. I've tried some, and it was delicious. – MarkieW, Restaurantica
