L’Îlot Café-Buvette
Vanessa Loignon | The Magdalen Islands
L’Îlot Café-Buvette is a warm and welcoming place, reminiscent of a cozy family nest. It’s the perfect place to drop off for a coffee or beer and a bite to eat. Sandwiches, salads and pastries are served, as well as coffees, beers from Quebec microbreweries and wines. It’s also a business recognized in the Islands for its innovative actions in terms of sustainable development. Various activities and events are offered, with the aim of revitalizing the offering for local customers.
The loan granted by AMCGÎM helped the business take off, among other things for the acquisition of equipment used in the kitchen and for coffee preparation.
