Le Gabriel Restaurant & Lounge

A must stop everytime you visit the Cabot trail. It’s tradition for our family to always eat there. They have great local musicians playing and the food and atmosphere is always a great time. Pool tables to play at while you listen to music. The seafood platter and ham dinner are always a win for our family. My son and I always have a dance on the dance floor and we can’t not stop by every time we are in town. A must visit when in chetticamp!

What a great place to stop and eat. Great service, super friendly. Food is really good and served pretty quickly. Tons of hockey sports memorabilia. They have a bar, a dance floor and feature live music occasionally. Great friendly staff. Highly recommend.

Great restaurant with local talent. Mussels were simple and delicious. Home fries were amazing. Service was great!

We came for dinner and there is option for live music. Foods are really great, our moms love seafood chowder. Service is fast. Perfect atmosphere

Figured Saturday night live music would be a good sign.: I was wrong. I walked in and the music was so loud the waitress couldn’t hear me. She told me they tried to get the musician to turn the speaker volume down but it’s “either his way or no music.” When the cod arrived it tasted like it had been pulled out of a freezer and microwaved. Fries were soggy. Veggies over cooked. The good thing is the musician likes to drink - got out of there as soon as he announced he was getting another beer. … Ears still ringing in pain.

We had a very nice lunch here. The food tasted amazing and the staff were very friendly! They had a kids menu with crayons and good variety (10$ including dessert). So many cake desserts to choose from; I would recommend lemon cake! Wonderful seafood chowder and fish and chips. Overall, I would definitely recommend this place :)

Not many options when you visit early in the season in Cape Breton. Stopped here for lunch and left disappointed. Ordered the lobster club and veggie. As you can see in the pictures, it’s frozen vegetables that was boiled as it was completely water logged and mushy and wasn’t even seasoned. The lobster sandwich was decent, but at $35, it was expensive for about half the meat you would normally get in a lobster roll in NS. The fish and chip was ok ($19) as the batter was crispy but very greasy on the plate as the fish wasn’t drained before serving. There are lots of settings and attached to a sport bar on the other side. The service was friendly, but can’t recommend to go back if we were ever in the area again.

We really enjoyed Le Gabriel. Their seafood chowder is loaded with large scallops and they have excellent crab tacos. The night we were there, there was a live band playing bangers all night! Such a fun local environment.
