At the east end of this beach, the Walrus and the Carpenter run Morse et Marteaux. At the west end, the oysters finally have a bar of their own.

Say the name out loud: huit huîtres. There’s a shucking knife behind the counter to keep it honest.

Downstairs, the canteen


Mornings

Coffee and Adorable Chocolat viennoiseries, for an early crowd that deserves better than a locked door.

The raw bar

Oysters all day, with the count kept on the board in chalk.

The Acadian Table

Fricot, râpure, and poutine à trou, served warm at a beach window. A provincial park in l’Acadie should serve the food of the place.

The canteen

Lobster rolls, seafood buckets, true vegetarian and vegan mains, and the canteen classics, done properly.

On the sand

The WitZuit Beach Bar. Same kitchen, carried out to the water, with its own music and its own mood.
