Café Couleurs

Gaspé Peninsula


In a quiet and retreat-like house in idyllic Barachois, about a 20-minute drive north of town, you can get good food all day and decent coffee. There's also a small art gallery and appealing gift shop. Start the day with Belgian waffles and a mountain of fruit on the patio, soaking up views of the ocean, mountains and Rocher Percé.
