I spent a week here last summer and here are some of my favourite spots:

Inverness BEACH HUT was recommended by a local and WOW it was a fantastic cafe to stop for a crab cake burger and onion rings with sriracha mayo.

Glenora Inn & Distillery: not only are the Fiddler fish and chips some of the best in Nova Scotia, but the private distillery tour will change how you think about whiskey.

Route 19 Brewing had one of the most interest craft beers I've had this year. I didn't get a chance to eat here but the food looked amazing.

The Dancing Goat Cafe & Bakery is a local favourite for bread, cookies and sweets. It is worth a slight detour before you get on the Cabot Trail.

Aucoin Bakery Ltd. was one of the most recommended spots in Cheticamp. I wish I had been able to pick up a meat pie but the cinnamon bun was one of the best ever.

Mr. Chicken is known to have the best fried chicken on the island and I can see why!

L'Abri café, restaurant et bar was one of my favourite restaurants this year. I loved the decor, the friendly staff and locals drinking wine for lunch.

Coastal Restaurant & Pub was such a great time. The service is so down home and friendly. I had the famous Ringer Burger and it lived up to its reputation.

The Dancing Moose Cafe Cottage and Camping Cabins was a last minute visit for breakfast but I loved the Dutch pancakes, It's so pretty there I'd love to go back and stay at one of the cottages.

Big Spruce Brewing was SUCH a treat. I loved all the beer and when people told me to try the lobster wontons I wasn't expecting much from deep fried food - but it was decadent and delicious!

Cedar House was one of my favourite spots. An old school diner with a menu of classics like a hot turkey sandwich, the service was sincere and as fantastic as the food - my favourite oat cakes ever!

Inverary Resort on Baddeck Bay is gorgeous, you can eat at the Lakeside restaurant and there's lots of space for picnics on the grounds with

Eileanan Brèagha Vineyards wine and Herring Choker Deli veggie sandwich.

And you can't leave Cape Breton without chowder from Charlene's Restaurant indeed this place absolutely lives up to the hype!

I'm a Canadian travel blogger at home for the summer and autumn. But I'm making the most of my time by traveling Atlantic Canada.
