Categories: Seafood, Wine Bars

3/10/2011

Checking out the list of other reviews for the FF you can really tell that this is a favourite among visitors. It makes total sense since it's one of the first places I tell people to go when they're looking for great seafood with maybe a little less…More »

Star ratings aside, the Bluenose is fantastic for what it is. It's the go-to downtown diner for all-day breakfast, a handful of lovely Greek dishes, or a quick 'home-cooked' meal in the middle of a busy work day.

1869 Upper Water St
Halifax, NS B3J 1S9
(902) 422-5200

Categories: Music Venues, Pubs

Set up on the second floor of the ever-popular Lower Deck, the Beer Market seems to always be mid-identity crisis. During the day, it's a calm, casual lunch spot for above average pub fare. At night? It's the weird, pop-music-loving sister of the…More »
