A tourist's sample of Nova Scotian cuisine
See All Lists
1. Freak Lunchbox
Unique candy store with amusing décor. As their window claimed, they do have a "ferocious" selection of candy with the basics (gummy bears, chocolate-covered raisins, jelly beans) and candy with charming names like "I Heart York" for York patties,…More »
2. Cora's
We came here for a quick lunch since it is near the Citadel area. Cute diner with moderately slow service. We got the April 89 crepe (fruit and custard) which was somewhat ordinary and the beef melt panini, which had some flavor.
Fairly priced and…More »
3. Five Fishermen Restaurant
On the first night in Halifax, we wanted to try the local seafood cuisine of Nova Scotia. Walking distance downtown, we gave Five Fishermen a go.
Elegant and charming decor but strangely quiet for a Friday evening (or is Halifax just not that busy of…More »
4. Cabin Coffee
Adorable cafe next to the Sheraton (where we were staying). Charming decors and comfortable couches, which I saw many seated there relaxing and chatting with others.
We got the Breakfast Sandwich special (bacon, egg, and cheese on English muffin) as…More »
5. Gazebo Cafe
3.5 stars.
We stumbled to this place by chance. This cafe has a patio with a nice view of the bay. While we were able to nab a table outdoors, the service was incredibly slooooow! Perhaps that was because only one lady was waiting on us along with…More »
6. Venus Pizza
Knowing that donair is a Haligonian-derived dish, I had to try it. We got a donair and a donair pizza with a tabbouleh salad. I became a fan of the donair: nicely cooked meat and great sauce in a pita. The Haligonians are definitely onto something…More »

Thank you Yelpers for making my dad's Father's Day memorable! I took him there for brunch, and it was a pleasant experience. We did get there early (9:45), so we got a table without wait, yessss!
Great and fast service with a simple and…More »
8. Parseh Shiraz House
Mom-and-pop shop in an old taxicab stand near the Halifax seaport. It is a tiny but homey place with basic Iranian cuisine. Since we were the only ones there, the "mom" took her time to make our food. We got the lamb wrap that was cooked nicely,…More »
9. The Henry House
A pub located in a historically preserved building. There were many areas to sit from the main dining room to the pub downstairs to the outdoor patio area. The patio looked nice, but we sat in the pub as it was slightly too chilly to dine out.
