Pool billard club
👍👍 Go on a Tues/wed and it's extra reasonably priced. Kazam is the man. Super nice dude. What more can you ask for 20$. Unlimited Pool, darts, ping pong, foosball. Just a fun night!

Bulwark Cider House
Restaurant
👍 A local cidery in Halifax. The varieties are mainly semi-sweet ciders, so be aware. There are lots of seating area inside with displays to buy to-go.

Nine Locks Brewing Co. Cold Beer Store & Tap Room
Bar
👍👍 Found this place when looking for a local brewery with flights of beer. We were at the Lawton drugs and literally just had to cross the street. It's beside Krave burger and is very unassuming, we actually walked right by moments before. Formally called Rock Bottom, in the basement of Your Father's M...

Peacock Wine Bar
Restaurant
😐 The food and wine are delicious! We both really enjoyed the ravioli and cavatelli pasta dishes. We ordered the large of both dishes and found the food was a little pricy for what we got but the quality was very good. The inside of the wine bar is stunning however the tables are so close together tha...

Halifax Distilling Co. home to JD Shore Rums.

😠 I'm not sure if this place is open anymore. We were in town on vacation and stopped by twice. Once we walked in and walked around, but no one was there. We came back two days later and the doors were locked. Both days were during their business hours. I would of loved to have tried rum cream.

T-Room
Bar
👍 Great place for trivia. Lots of engineering students come here especially, but any students welcome. One can tell it's a bit of an older establishment, but the atmosphere is always great and welcoming

The Drawing Room
Bar
👍👍 The Drawing Room is excellent, one of, if not, the best cocktail bars in Halifax. The atmosphere can't be beat, and the cocktail menu is incredible. The attention to detail is fantastic. The staff are friendly and considerate. I've been a few times, and each time has been stellar. Love this spot, wi...

Capital Sports Club
Bar
👍👍 A fantastic bar with that comfortable "local" feel. Very friendly staff and management. A nice selection of drinks and the live music from time to time is enjoyable. Definitely recommend if you want something other than the over priced overrated downtown scene. 🙂

Filipino restaurant
👍👍 My friend said there was a Filipino night BBQ in downtown. The Filipino skewers and Hot Dog were perfect! And Rocky has been there for like 30 years! Great taste and reminder of home!

Charm School Pub
Bar
👍 I used to be a regular. The stars are for the beer. After the owner acted out like a child towards my brother I haven’t been back. The brewer is NOT the owner. More an indentured servant. Drink the beer. Find it elsewhere. Nearby CHKN Chop, Brown Hound and El Chino have taps, and The Stillwell Fre...

Par 94 Golf Halifax
Sports bar
👍👍 Best golf simulator in Halifax hands down. The simulator itself was the best I've ever personally used. The drinks/food were excellent with lots of options. The staff is kind, helpful, and always had a smile on their faces! Would be a great spot for a work party or group function. Such a good find i...
