Guidebook for Halifax
Food Scene
This is one of our favorite places. It's focused on local, has a decent selection of local beers and wine, and makes a great haddock burger and veggie burger. They don't take reservations and can get really busy. If you have to wait for a table, go next door to their “Bars and Bites” for a drink, or to Obladee if you’d prefer a glass of wine.
