Description

An established business, a recognized name, and an opportunity to own along one of Cape Breton’s most travelled tourism routes. The Clucking Hen Café is a well-known and profitable café, restaurant and bakery located directly on the world-famous Cabot Trail, attracting both a loyal local following and visitors travelling the Island each season. The business is being offered as a turnkey operation, with a fully equipped commercial kitchen and the equipment needed to continue operating included in the sale. The inviting dining room accommodates approximately 35 guests, with another 32 seats on the covered deck overlooking beautiful water views, plus additional outdoor picnic seating. Beyond the established restaurant business, this property offers exciting potential for additional revenue and future growth. A newly installed septic system was designed to accommodate the restaurant’s current needs as well as planned expansion, including the potential for up to five additional cottages or accommodations. One newly built, year-round cottage is already in place, while the upper level of the restaurant offers a spacious two-bedroom apartment with a private deck, ideal for an owner, staff accommodation or additional rental income. With year-over-year business growth, limited nearby competition and a location within walking distance of two popular artisan shops, The Clucking Hen offers much more than a restaurant—it is an opportunity to step into an established Cape Breton business while continuing to grow the property’s hospitality and accommodation potential.
