La Maison du Pêcheur

Gaspé Peninsula


This long-standing fish house is located in a former fishers' shack that became a commune in the 1960s, rebuilt – with a wall of windows overlooking Pierced Rock – after suffering damage in a severe storm. It serves seafood, including lobster, and at least a half-dozen types of pizza baked in a wood-heated oven. Reservations strongly recommended.
