Chéticamp & Area

About

Nestled in a lovingly restored barn along the iconic Cabot Trail, Doucet is more than a restaurant — it’s a tribute to Chéticamp’s land, history, and spirit.

This winter, the Table Doucet team invites you to enjoy a curated menu of comforting classics that are affordable, seasonal, and made with the same signature quality.

Rooted in Acadian heritage and inspired by the rugged beauty of Cape Breton, Doucet brings together wild-foraged ingredients, locally sourced fare, and bold culinary creativity.

Each dish is a reflection of place, crafted by Michelin-trained Chef Cameron Armstrong and paired with wines personally selected by Sommelier Andrew McDow.

The name Doucet honours the original farming family who once lived on this land — and whose story continues through every plate we serve and every guest we welcome.

Whether you’re here for the food, the view, or the feeling of something special shared around the table, we’re so glad you found us.

We welcome you to something unforgettable.

Join us for a relaxed dining experience. Feel free to walk in or reserve your seat in advance.
