L'abri café, restaurant et bar

The hostess were friendly, one more than the other. Food was OK. Not worth the $60 for the pulled pork pizza ($26 with very little pork or flavor) and kale caesar salad was $27. There was an additional charge of $13 for three scallops! I didn't realize until after the bill arrived, as my daughter ordered for herself. I asked if the bill was right, as I was surprised. Six scallops, sure. Three, no. On a Caesar salad! For a total of $27!
The atmosphere was very quaint, so 4 stars for that. Definitely would not recommend though, to people spending time and money on the Cabot trail.

I had dinner at the bar as I didn't have a reservation. Its a small place so i can see it filling up quickly. Very accommodating and friendly staff. I ordered the fish and chips (2) which were very lightly fried, crispy and tasty and the side of sautéed broccolini was delicious. Portion sizes were average. They had a descent and diverse beer selection (not all IPAs). I had a helles from North Brewing which was excellent.

Beautiful location and atmosphere. Space cadet staff that can't remember your order. Got seafood linguini, was cold and the seafood was rubbery and very obviously frozen. Sauce tasted like cheap marinara.

Friend got the same, had the same thoughts. Other friend got a steak and said it was cold and poorly cooked.

I went here for breakfast & dinner during the time I spent working abroad for the National Park. The breakfast was great service was perfect. On the contrast the dinner was very slow service. (Wasn’t slammed) Had to remind about drinks, the thing I was most disappointed about was the spinach dip. Everything else had huge portions, the spinach dip had barley enough chips or pits to even finish the dip. I ask for more so we could finish the dip. Later I find out when we get our bill that we were charged an extra $6 on top of the $20 they charged for the dish. I talked to them about the issue and I was dismissed like I was crazy to even ask. Maybe it’s just the small town vibe but it wasn’t the hospitality I’ve received from other establishments in the area. Just don’t get the dip it’s not worth it. Live music was enjoyable that they had going.

This is our first time trying this restaurant and no words can express how proud we are to dine in. L’abri offers an exquisite dining experience with flawless service, beautifully presented dishes, and a warm atmosphere. The food was great, and every detail was thoughtfully curated. Talking about service, we had some requests to go out of the menu for drinks, and they didn’t disappointed us. We had the summer salad and chicken wings, they were delicious! But in the mains we had was Chicken tikka masala, could be more flavourful and Spicy. As a highly trained Indian Chef, I would recommend to add some more spices to it. To make it more authentic taste better. But overall a highly recommended for a perfect date night! A MUST VISIT RESTAURANT IN CHETICAMP!

We ordered L'ABRI BURGER and SEAFOOD LINGUINE, dessert and salad the dishes were almost good and tasty but the price is high compared to the amount of food. The atmosphere is good. But in the end, when I wanted to pay the bill, the waiter said, "Why didn't you give me a tip?" (While the tip is optional ) even though it was a ridiculous request, we said ok we would tip you, but she kept us and refunded my money to my visa. And again she forced us to pay again for having tip. It was not a nice move at all.
In my view asking tip while customers already paid it’s not nice.

It was the end of session so the menu was a bit limited but all the food was lovely. The Scallops were the best we had on the whole trip, including Digby. I had the haddock and chips and they were excellent. The Lobster roll (actually lobster, crab and a bit of jalapeno) was my wife's favorite of the whole trip.

Overall a good dining experience. It's a nice setting overlooking the water. We had broccolini, pan seared scallops, Seafood chowder and seafood linguine. While the chowder was excellent the linguine was good do to pasta being overcooked. Scallops were on the tiny side and were also good. We felt a bit rushed as food arrived too quick and plates being removed as others were still eating.

We had a wonderful evening having dinner at L'abri café. It was a marvelous dinner. We also stayed two nights above the restaurant , and we loved our stay there. Highly recommend the lodging and restaurant.
