The Dory Pub & Restaurant
Overview
Thousands of people have savoured the dishes from Cape Breton’s Paterson family through the years and a multitude of projects are underway to ensure those signature flavours are served to many more.
The family-owned Mise en Place catering service offers breakfast and lunch to 82 guests per day at Williston House and Rideout House on Churchill Drive in Sydney, but countless others have enjoyed their creations at weddings and special events over the past two years. Their skills are on display at the newly opened Dory Pub and Restaurant at the Dobson Yacht Club in Westmount.
“I like to describe it as more of an upscale bar, comfort in a sense but with our little twist on it,” said Mark Paterson, the company’s head chef, about the Dory.
