Adorable Chocolat

Not surprisingly, chocolate features heavily on the menu here, including hot chocolate drinks, and there’s good coffee too, including latte and iced coffee. They also serve freshly baked croissants and chocolate treats containing nothing but healthy natural ingredients. You can buy hand-made chocolates to go, too.

Le Menu Acadien

$$

Don't expect any frills here, but don't expect any processed food either—this diner and takeout, far removed from the touristy center of town, is the place to taste some authentic and delicious Acadian dishes. Try the fricôt (a hearty chicken soup), poutine rappé (a potato dumpling stuffed with ground pork), fish cakes, or traditional baked beans. All are expertly and freshly cooked to the owner's grandmother's recipes; other options include fried clams, scallops, lobster rolls, fish burgers, and fish-and-chips.
