Chanterelle Restaurant, Inn & Cottages is the perfect place to take in the natural beauty and scenery of the Cabot Trail. For over 20 years we have welcomed guests from all over the world to make themselves at home and sample Cape Breton Island’s finest local ingredients and experiences. Our tasting menu is created from the labours of farmers, growers and fishers from within 100 kilometers of our location whenever possible.

Restaurant

Our Menu changes with the seasons and our food comes from ethical sources anddirectly from Cape Breton Island whenever possible. Lobster, Crab, Halibut, Shrimp as well as Mussels and Oysters come from the local fishers and cultivators from Englishtown, Glace Bay, and Little River Wharf. Animals are tenderly raised on ethical, free range and mostly organic farms that we personally trust. Vegetables are grown in organic soil surrounding the Bras D’or lake, Tarbot and the Margaree Valley. Wild mushrooms, fresh herbs, edible flowers and wild plants are foraged right from our own backyard.

The restaurant is Closed for the season and will re-open on May 15th, 2024

We have both 7 course and 4 course tasting menus that rotate every three days. Pub Nights on Saturdays! Reservations required except for Pub Nights.

The Environment: DEDICATED TO PRESERVATION

Chanterelle Inn & Cottages is an eco-award-winning property, renowned for its sustainable food sourcing, eco-friendly power and water systems, and its limited carbon footprint. Since the very beginning we’ve worked to build a comfortable, environmentally safe property that’s welcomed thousands of guests. We have built our rooms at the Inn and Cottages to take advantage of natural cooling; there is no a/c in the rooms as part of our effort to conserve energy. The Inn’s rooms don’t have TV’s but we do have plenty of good books in our extensive library downstairs.
