What's New in 2025!

Thanks to the amazing feedback from our recent community survey, we’re thrilled to share that Bryan Picard and Alicia Lake from Bite House are helping us reimagine the Wheelhouse Cafe this summer!

You can look forward to a refreshed interior and a vibrant new menu focused on simple, and delicious meals inspired by our view of the beautiful Bras d’Or Lake.
Even better - we’re extending our season! We’ll be opening in early June and staying open into September, so you can enjoy those lakeside views even longer.

💼 We’re also hiring! If you’re passionate about food, community, and spending your days by the water, this is the perfect time to join our team and help bring this exciting new chapter to life.
Check out our Employment Page for more info.

We can’t wait to welcome you back!
