1. Willman's Fish & Chips
Finally tried this place out today, and I'm very glad I did. I showed up at what was clearly not a peak time - mid-afternoon on a Sunday. The place was completely empty and no one was at the counter, so I just went ahead and seated myself (didn't…More »
2. Fort Needham Memorial Park
I'm pretty spoiled as far as parks go, living just down the road from Shubie Park. So I'm probably not rating this park completely fairly. It's good for what it is.
Not as large as I had thought by looking at it on a map. Takes just a few minutes to…More »
3. Michael's Bar & Grill
My office is about a 30 second walk from Michael's so I end up here a lot. I've never been in the bar section (and I honestly didn't realize there was a bar section until very recently), but I frequent the restaurant section for lunch on average once…More »
4. Epicurious Morsels
Situated in the lovely Hydrostone Market, Epicurious Morsels is the sort of place where you'd expect to see 'ladies who lunch'. Just fancy enough, without being off-putting for a week day lunch. I've been here only a couple times, both for lunch, but…More »
5. The Coastal Cafe
If you're in search of weekend brunch and want to try something new and different - this is it. I suggest reviewing the menu online before you go, because it's going to be a tough choice and you'll be ordering at the counter. Personally, I always…More »
6. Saskia Roch Aesthetics
I just noticed Saskia Roch now has a Facebook page with prices and services listed: https://www.facebook.c... AND they accept debit/credit etc! 5th star achieved.

Saskia Roch Aesthetics is located in Foxy Moon Hair Gallery. It's not a large space, and it's not… Read more »
7. The Bargain Shop
This location of The Bargain Shop is incredibly convenient for me as it is mere steps away from my office. They recently did some much-needed renovations and changed much of the store around completely. The selection has definitely expanded as a…More »
8. Frenchy's Used Clothing
This is a Halifax gem with treasures to be found throughout if you're willing to hunt for them, especially if you're looking for footwear. This location has tons of shoes and boots - TONS! You can find some great handbags here too, both new and…More »
9. Humani-T Cafe
I have struggled with reviewing this cafe for some time. Some aspects of this place deserve a 4 or 5 star review, while others rate only 1 or 2 stars.
Let's start with the good shall we?
First of all - the space and atmosphere is fantastic and worth 5…More »
10. Tim Hortons
This location of Tim Hortons gets it right. It's an incredibly busy spot, but the staff keeps things moving at a good pace, both in-store and in the drive-thru. Most importantly, the coffee is consistently good here, as is everything else.
11. Silver Dragon Restaurant
I normally get takeout from Silver Dragon - usually as part of a group order. I've tried a few different dishes, and my favourite is the orange chicken. It's so tasty with just the right amount of heat to balance the sweet. The egg rolls are good…More »
12. Lady Luck Boutique
Fun, fun, fun! First of all, this shop can be found in one of the best neighborhoods in Halifax (Canada, in fact according to a recent article): the Hydrostone Market. This boutique is chock full of fun, feminine accessories - everything from jewelry…More »
13. Hamachi Kita
Hamachi Kita is consistently consistent. Great spot to grab a sushi lunch, though it's a wee bit difficult to get in and out within my allotted hour lunch break.
The Bento Box lunch special is a crazy good deal, and there are lots of options for…More »
14. Cafe Aroma Latino
After reading Rhia P.'s brunch review for this spot, I decided it was time I finally paid a visit. I work close by, but never got around to trying it out.
I planned on a leisurely solo Sunday brunch before hitting up the Halifax Crafters Market. My…More »
