Both the Bistro and the concerts as mentioned are open for all, not just for Cabot Shores Guests. Also the Bistro is convenient for the biweekly Ceilidhs held twice a week on Tuesdays and Fridays, at the St. Anns United Church. Fiddler and luthier, David Paprizian, has organized this evening of Celtic music for the last 20 years, featuring many talented musicians and many legends of of Celtic fiddle, guitar, piano, pipes, and the occasional step-dancer.

Chefs’ Inspiration
The chefs here are inspired by the local seafood and the latest pickings from the gardens and orchard at Cabot Shores. The Menu changes often depending on the daily catch of halibut, haddock, mussels, snow crab and lobster (May 15-July 15th) but here is a sample menu. Here is how you can make a reservation pre-Ceididh on Tuesday or Fridays, pre-Cabot Shores concerts, or for any dinner, breakfast or lunch.
