Italian-inspired cooking, fresh ingredients and a terrace at the heart of the Lac-Mégantic marina.

La Capitainerie and Le Bistro du Lac by the marina
Our story

The Bistro, at the marina

On the ground floor of La Capitainerie, facing Lake Mégantic and Mont Gosford, Le Bistro du Lac lives to the rhythm of the marina.

The building stands where the old harbour master's office once was, giving boaters, locals and visitors a place to gather by the water again.

“Savourez l'instant”

Savour the moment: our way of saying take your time. A meal that lingers, the light changing on the lake, one last drink on the terrace.

Italian cooking

Artisan pizzas, pasta, sandwiches, burgers and poutine, with an evening menu from 5 p.m.

The marina at your feet

74 seats inside and 80 on the terrace, with the lake and mountains as a backdrop.

Local products

Bread from Le Fournil du Lac, P'tit Plaisir brie, Appalachian black garlic.
