1. Costco
Well my first time in Costco I was in awe of how much stuff they had. The store is clean and the checkouts are way faster than any Walmart I've been in. Just make sure to keep an eye on prices as sometimes they are more expensive than at a grocery…More »
2. Petcetera
Petcetera has a great selection of premium pet foods and supplies. They almost always have good deals on as well so keep an eye on flyers.
The only down fall I see with this store is that they take poor care of fish. There's almost always multiple…More »
3. Kameko's Cove & Aquatics
When you walk into this small pet store you are greeted by some colourful fishy faces swimming in a large tank.
I like this store because it's small and they don't have too many animals. They only take what they can handle. The owners are mostly…More »
4. Mic Mac Mall
I enjoy going to the Mic Mac Mall once in a while but I'm not a big fan. I find it isn't as welcoming as the shopping center on Mumford rd. But that could be because three floors can be a little overwhelming.
The East Side Mario's in the mall has…More »
5. Second Cup
I'm not much of a coffee or tea drinker but I went in to Second Cup on the recommendation to try their Chai Latte. I was pleasantly surprised by the warm, spicy flavor.
The store itself is small and cozy. A nice spot to just take a break from…More »
6. Sunwich Cafe
I haven't had much of a variety of foods from here but I've had the Caesar salad, their BLT sandwich and their potato soup. The soup is delicious. If you want any of it, it's usually sold out by 1:30pm so make sure you go early to get it.
I'm not a…More »
7. Metro Transit
Oh metro transit, how I loathe thee. Many of the complaints I have have been voiced multiple times; buses late or not showing up at all, buses leaving at the same times for the same bus routes, and the list goes on.
Luckily I have a UPass and don't…More »
8. Pets Unlimited
Last time I was in, this store had stopped selling puppies and kittens which is great. I'm a big fan of people adopting their pets from shelters.
Their fish/reptile section is good and always fairly clean. They also has stingrays in the large tank…More »
9. Patrick Power Library
I go to this library for materials for my assignments since I go to SMU. It's a great library for getting books for assignments but it's not that great for getting books just to read. I find the layout confusing at times and have to often ask where I…More »
10. Fabricville
Staff is usually rude and unhelpful, stock is way overpriced but they do have a nice selection. The notions selection is a bit way too small. I won't be returning to this store any time soon.
11. Save Easy - CLOSED
This store is small and convenient but the selection of produce is poor and is generally not very good, though I've seen worse.
If you're going in to pick up something common then that's great but if you're looking for say vanilla beans or something…More »
12. Rbc Royal Bank
I don't really use this branch for more than using the ATM but whenever I have to go to a teller they always take forever.
I went to cash a cheque one day and it took the teller over 25 minutes because she was too busy chatting with another teller.
If…More »
13. Halifax Seaport Farmers Market
I never got a chance to experience the farmers market at the old location, but I really enjoy going to this location.
I love that they have a few daily vendors so it's great if you can't find time in your schedule to go on full market days, but be…More »
14. Halifax Shopping Centre
I love going to the HSC because the lighting is just perfect, most of the staff in stores are friendly; and most of all there's only two floors so it's not that intimidating for people that don't like malls much.
I find the HSC has all the stores I…More »
15. JYSK
The best things about this store are it's prices and cleanliness. the store is very well-lit and clean but there's not a large selection of items to choose from. The staff are usually friendly though
I don't really have a lot to say about this store…More »
16. Maritime Museum of the Atlantic
Where to start? I visited the museum for the first time this summer and loved it. My personal favorite exhibits were the sunken treasure and the ship out back.
All of the exhibits were interesting and it's very fitting for the museum to be on the…More »
17. Gateway Meat Market
I LOVE going to Gateway Meat Market because all the fresh meat is from around the Maritimes! Yay!
They have a pretty decent selection and it's SO worth the trip to go out to Gateway because you save so much money compared to buying meat at a regular…More »
18. Dragon & Butterfly Tattoo
The place is small but cozy and very clean.
I went in to get my tongue pierced and I was very nervous but the piercer (Liz) made me feel relaxed and made a couple jokes before going over the procedure and care for the piercing.
I've got a couple more…More »
19. Nocturne: Art At Night
I enjoyed going to Nocturne this year just like I did last year. I wish I could have seen a bit more but what I did see was awesome. I did notice though that a couple things closed early maybe because of lack of supplies and such.
I mostly stuck…More »
20. La Senza
This store is always very well lit and the floor space is very spacious. The staff are also polite and helpful. The selection is large but the quality isn't always amazing but for the prices you pay the quality is decent.
Another good thing about La…More »
21. Ardene
I generally only go to Ardene for jewelery and belts. Jewelery seems to be decent, I haven't had any problems with tongue rings or earrings but rings are pretty cheap and standard. Belts wear out pretty easily as well. I don't know anything about…More »
22. Yum Yum Restaurant
This place looks totally shady on the outside and they only do take-out. Their food is really tasty for Chinese food. I'd recommend their chicken pan curry or their Singapore noodles.
Their service is always very friendly and they have very cheap…More »
23. The Last Gamestore
I love this store! The size of the store is just perfect for what they sell.
The staff are always friendly and passionate about what they sell. Which is always awesome.
I went in the first time looking for some N64 and NES games and they had most of…More »
24. Gamestop
I myself play video games and have gone to this store many times but I only go to this location mostly because it's the most convenient store that sells used games. The store is always clean and tidy. If they don't have the game you're looking for…More »
25. Alderney Gate Public Library
I LOVE this library, two floors of booky-goodness and lots of large windows to let in light. Not to mention there's quite a few computers for public use.
The library is kept well clean and it's very well organized (I mean, libraries are supposed to…More »
26. Parkside Pub & Grill Ltd
I like the atmosphere and the food arrived fairly quickly. Waitress wasn't rude and not overly polite.
I had the potato skins which were amazing. I may have been a little biased as I was craving them for a while.
Next time I go I'll definitely be…More »
27. Best Buy
As far as chain electronic stores go Best Buy is pretty decent. They have competitive prices and the store is clean and well-lit.
Sometimes staff are hard to find throughout the store but when you find someone they are always happy to help you.
The…More »
28. Starbucks
This location is pretty convenient. You don't have to go all the way to Dartmouth Crossing or all the way to Halifax (if you take the bus both places can be a bit of a pain). It's also not in the food court so it's pretty much guaranteed to be not…More »
29. Companion Animal Hospital
Going to a vet is usually not a pleasant thing for pets (or at least for my kitties) since you have the stress of the trip there and it being a different environment.
My first cat Simone had his first checkup and shots here and the vet was very…More »
30. Chapters
I love going to Chapters to kill some time. It's a nice clean environment and nice an quiet compared to a mall setting. They have a large selection of books and computers scattered around to help you find a book or author you're looking for. For…More »
