Top choice in Nova Scotia
Local products and seasonal cooking underpin the menu at this superb coastal cafe, in a little house with a view of the driftwood-strewn beach of Advocate Harbour. The food is as good as you'll find in this part of Nova Scotia: crumbed fishcakes, mackerel bento bowls, pan-seared scallops, and cheeses from That Dutchman's Cheese Farm.
There are also two upstairs rooms ($100), with wi-fi, breakfast and shared bathrooms.
