About

NNestled among the Cape Breton highlands, on the iconic Cabot Trail, connect with nature, food, and culture during a chef-led dining experience at Doucet.

Surrounded by the works of local artisans, take a seat at a communal table for a focused, chef and sommelier-led dining experience that reflects Cape Breton’s land, sea, and culture. Savour local seafood and seasonal produce alongside native grains, wild herbs, and traditional Acadian flavours.

Experience Highlights:

– Chef-led 9-course dining experience, bringing together wild-foraged ingredients, locally sourced fare, and bold culinary creativity to create signature dishes like a Kamut flour butter tart made with local Mabou maple syrup and preserved and pickled spruce.

– Hear the local connection and inspiration behind each course from Michelin-trained Chef Cameron Armstrong.

– Connect with nature, food, and each other around two, handcrafted communal dining tables, surrounded by local art and overlooking the rolling highlands.

– Sommelier-led wine pairings, using low-intervention selections that reflect the terroir and natural expression of the grapes, while perfectly accompanying each course.

Experience offered daily, Tuesday – Saturday until November 1, 2026.

Time: Two nightly seatings at 6:00pm and 6:30pm
