1. Carbonstok
Carbonstok is a great store that stands firmly behind the concept of sustainable business. With a solid selection of merchandise that you can feel good about buying, Carbonstok sells some brand names you may be familiar with, but also supports local…More »
2. Attica Furnishings
Attica is a great Hali-spot for home furnishings (or in my case, aspirational home furnishings). While the furniture is a little too high-end to be in my regular shopping rotation, they also carry a vast array of gifts, trinkets, knick-knacks and…More »
3. Liquid Gold Tasting Bar & All Things Olive
Yes to Liquid Gold. Just yes. When I first ventured in to this shop I wondered if Halifax was ready for such a super-specialized vendor. Luckily for me, the Hydrostone, and HRM in general - we were. With every conceivable flavour of oil and vinegar…More »
4. Bishop's Cellar
Sweet, sweet Bishop's Cellar. I am such a fan. Amazingly knowledgeable staff, great variety, many different price points to suit every budget, and best of all - reliable supply of Nova 7... All of these things make me love Bishop's Cellar. The fact…More »

6. Sweet Jane's Gifts & Confectionery
I love a good candy selection. Halifax has a few prime locations for confection procurement, but I like Sweet Jane's for a few reasons. It's convenient - right downtown, just off Spring Garden Road. It's got a fabulous selection of…More »
7. Twisted Muse
Twisted Muse is the kind of store that makes me wish I had unlimited funds and a closet thrice the size of the one I have now. Although it's smaller than sister-store Sweet Pea, it's got a fantastic range of clothes from funky to formal. Carrying…More »
8. Sparrow Shoe Boutique
This is not your Nana's shoe store. (Although she'd be perfectly welcome there.) Johanna Galipeau has added a third business to her Halifax fashion empire with the opening of Sparrow Shoe Boutique. The friendly staff and cozy retro-chic decor make it…More »

10. Love, Me
Don't let all that temporary construction that's happening on Birmingham Street scare you away. If you venture beyond the scaffolding and the wire fences, just past Woozles, you'll find Love Me Boutique. I was in need of a birthday present for my…More »
11. Black Market Boutique
The Black Market is one of the greatest spots in Halifax for wallet-friendly accessories. They've got a diverse selection of rings, bracelets, necklaces, earrings, clothing, and much much more at prices that any recessionista can support. Are…More »

Categories:
Chocolatiers and Shops,
Coffee & Tea
I walk on Lower Water Street on a regular basis, yet somehow had never stopped in to take a look around the Choco Cafe until last night. Well... I'm glad that oversight has been resolved, because Choco Cafe is a wonderful little spot. True to its…More »
