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.

The inventory is really well curated and beautifully arranged. My friend and I had so much fun looking at all of the shelves and items. Besides being gorgeous and fun to explore, this little place has a tasty cafe! My friend and I came back two days in a row just to get more cappuccinos and try different homemade treats. Food/drink we got: - cappuccinos: hot, lots of foam, quality espresso! - cranberry scone: awesome flavor, delicate glaze on top. a bit too bready and not crumbly enough for my taste - raspberry pecan bar: rich!! dense, balanced flavors, delicious - cruller: AMAZING! a must try! this is like a cross between a popover, a donut, and an apple fritter. absolutely heavenly I loved sitting in this shop and just enjoying the atmosphere. I'd come all the time if I lived in the area. Definitely stop by if you're in Chéticamp!

Aldona was lovely to interact with. Later I found a beautiful oil painting of a rustic scene painted by a P.E.I. artist. The preserves are delicious, too. I bought two jars of those. At the time, Aldona was giving away a ballpoint pen with the store's name printed on it. That pen was also high quality. If you're stopping by Antigonish for any reason, don't miss Granny's!

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.

Baked goods permeate the ocean air that flows from the open windows. This is an order your meal at the counter then find a table format, which if you're not a local it's hard to figure out which i observed while waiting to order. I had a generous portion of a seafood chowder that was thick creamed based, overflowing with substantial seafood and not just potato fillers. Then came the obligatory lobster roll which was one of the best rolls I've had! I finished with a homemade coconut cream tartlet that was good but had a tad too much gelatin for my palate. I'm all about texture and taste. Overall, my meal was very good and satisfying. The location is off the highway so pay attention youmight miss it. Cafe area was clean and well kept. Bathrooms were super clean ( bonus for this road warrior ), plenty of parking and outdoor dog friendly tables that each have water bowls and treats. That always impresses me as i travel with my chocolate lab all the time and to be abe to eat with her is a big deal. After you eat you are surrounded by a bunch of anti-rooms filled with local touristic nick-knacks. Café's such as this one are far and few on this island so if you're passing through stop in for a great meal!!
