Well, hi there, charming little shop full of unique treasures and potential gifts. I did not expect…read moreto see you here. What's that? Oh, you've been busy amassing both local product and unique items from away? And I see your staff are friendly to the point of failing me; including giving my friend's daughter a free gift - a display toy that was the last in stock. But, really, at these prices? How do you do it? You must tell me your secret. ...breaking character... Yes. Really fantastic. Amazing staff/owners. And when I say "unique," I don't mean "unique for Sydney." I don't mean "unique for Cape Breton." I mean, "unique" as in "I've never seen some of this stuff before in my life and wish I had."

You hear the waves, the birds chirping, and very close to the Cape Breton Highlands National Park. We ate at the cafe twice, and my absolute favourite was the pannekoek with bacons and homemade ginger jam. Omg, I am drooling thinking about it. Pannekoek is a Dutch pancake, and I never thought I would love pancakes this much. Ton is such a great host and you will not regret staying here and experience eating his pannekoeks!

We were seated at the table under the nice big moose head :-) The menu has quite a good number of choices for pannekoek (Duch crepe). We had pannekoek with fresh fruit and another one with banana, coconut and chocolate. Both were superb. Nicely prepared and presented. The little gift shop has nicely selected souvenirs. Definitely recommend this place for a good meal while visiting Cabot Trail.

My jeans cost $166 (Canadian dollars). Shocked, I walked out with them. A while later I came to my senses and tried returning them. I could not; store credit only. If price is no object for you, I highly recommend this store. Otherwise be careful. It's not a great strategy to leave your customer feeling like a fool, but as Baddeck becomes a tourist town this time of year, they may feel they won't see you again, and their policy maximizes profit. I understand.

Gord and I figured we could stop at a restaurant in Louisbourg for breakfast before we headed to…read morethe Fortress of Louisbourg. We drove up and down the main street a few times but all the restaurants were closed. We stopped a tour bus driver and asked him where we should eat. He recommended Louisbourg Pizzeria which is part of the Louisbourg General Store. He recommended the pizza. I had fries and a pizza burger. Gord had a hamburger and onion rings. Both meals were good. The staff (the fella at the cash and his wife who is the cook) were very friendly. After we spent more than three hours at the Fortress, we were hungry so we stopped in again afterwards for a slice of pizza ... it was good pizza!

We enjoyed lobster rolls and iced tea in the small lunch area looking out on the beautifully landscaped back patio. As you know if you love lobster rolls, there is a hierarchy of lobster rolls from "good" to "great". These lobster rolls were the best we'd ever tasted. So... much.... lobster. (Well, they might have been tied with the gourmet chef's interpretation of lobster rolls at Joggins Fossil Museum.) As lobster rolls go... these scored 11 out of 10. The atmosphere is great as well.
