Well…. Oct 11,2025, my son and I were travelling the Cabot trail and we were staying in cheticamp. We got in at 6:48 pm and didn’t realize they closed at 6:30. The door was unlocked as we seen a lady still eating. She said yes they were closed but she could offer us chicken only. We were more than grateful as we were on the road since 7:00 am.
They were more than accommodating, friendly and willing to help the best they could. Thank you again to whoever was working lastnight. It was greatly appreciated and will stop in next time we are in Cheticamp. You are a gem 💎 ❤️

If you want a quick and delicious meal to eat in Chéticamp; this is it! It’s a cute little spot that over looks the ocean. Their chicken is delicious with the perfect amount of spice. We sat outside and enjoyed our lunch and our dog was able to be out with us too. There is a few tables inside as well for those that don’t enjoy eating outside

Cute little place with good food. It is a bit pricey, but they are friendly and I'm happy to have my money go to them and support local places. The chicken pieces were fantastic, along with the chicken breast on a bun. The fries weren't hand cut / fresh, but still good.

The ice cream was good for price and quantity. There was a mix up between groups and who got what, but it was all sorted out quickly.

Don’t get me started! That place was amazing perfect chicken, ice cream, and service. Deserves more 5 star reviews. The price was fair to! Would visit again!

I know that this is a long review but this is very important.
One of the greatest dining experiences of my life!
First. The entry experience. As you drive up to this fine dining experience you see the iconic Mr Chicken logo. It brings a tear to my eye every time I see it. You park in very busy car park ready to start your experience.
The service. The service at Mr Chicken is impeckable. Your food is made rapidly by some incredibly talented chefs who have trained under some of the best chefs on Cape Breton Island. They always have a smile on their face and look super happy to be there. I wish I could work at Mr Chicken!
The food. The food at Mr Chicken is probably the best I have ever had. Seriously, the Michelin Guide needs to get down to this place. It is so good that they will need to create a 4th star to award to this fine dining establishment. Their menu is vast. Many people think that the fried chicken is where Mr Chicken shines but I think that it is the ice cream. This heavenly substance has the perfect balance of creaminess and sweetness with a fantastic mouth feel. If you are going to make the trip out to Mr Chicken then I suggest that you order most of items on the menu to experience and try a little of everything. My favourite items are: the worm and dirt ice cream. A fantastic dish taking the idea of things like worms and dirt and transforming the idea into a stand out dish. The hot fudge sundae is also fantastic, super rich and decadent with an array of flavours. And the milkshake selection is fantastic, super sweet and creamy!
If you haven’t figured out already, I love this place. That is why I am giving it 5 stars, there are absolutely no complaints from me.
I know what you are going to ask. Is this my favourite restaurant? I don’t want to decide to quickly as it was only 2 weeks ago that I ate here and I still need to really think about the revolutionary flavours that this place uses but I think… that this is my number one restaurant in the world! I would climb Mount Everest to come here again. I would wrestle a shark to come here again. I would jump off of Niagara Falls to come here again. And it is only about $7 for most things on the menu!
So yes, no matter where you are in the world, you need to cancel all of your plans to come to this world class restaurant.
Best chicken spice recipe you'll ever have. Amazing gravy. Tasty fries. Great view. Always stop in on my way visiting home.

I stopped in here for supper and tried the chicken fingers, kaiser burger and fries. Everything was great and the chicken fingers were the perfect size for littles. Staff were friendly and I only I waited about 15 mins as there were about 4 orders before me.

Great fried chicken. Best food ever. Hips(thighs) were crispy and done just right.
