Guidebook for Halifax
Food Scene
The best thin crust pizza in town. We love the pepperoni and roasted ham combo. We've heard great things about their hero sandwiches, too, though we've yet to deviate from our regular. Great vibe in the restaurant - I can only imagine is feels like Italy.

If you love cupcakes, this is a must visit for you! The classics stay the same but then they throw in some fun twists every week. The coconut is a best seller. Conveniently located downtown where you can swing by while walking the waterfront.

Ahhhhh home of the famous (and delish) Peanut Butter Burger. Yep. Peanut butter. On a burger. Amazeballz. As a regular customer for 10+ years, I have never been disappointed. Consistency in their quality and great service make this place a gem. Our favourites: the Peanut Butter Burger (with Darrell fries), the Original Pita (with sweet potato fries), the Hen Den Burger, and the Oreo shake.

Motel diner. Need I say more? Great breakfast at an affordable price. We usually get the full meal deal: coffee, eggs, sausage, bacon, toast with a side of french toast. You'll be surrounded by an older (60+) crowd who are most likely regulars (who are obviously on to a good thing). Also, walking distance from the house.

The ultimate date night restaurant - upscale menu yet casual atmosphere. The menu changes daily and are seasonal for Fall/Winter and Spring/Summer. You'll never go wrong with a seafood option (and you're in Nova Scotia - it was likely caught that morning!).

Take a ride on the ferry! At $2.50pp (return trip if you come back within a couple of hours - ask for a transfer paper when paying), this is the cheapest harbour cruise around! Enjoy the beauty of the Halifax Waterfront from the other side of the harbour. The ferry is like a double decker bus - offers seating inside and outside. If during the day, visit the local shops at the Alderney Terminal in Dartmouth, or take a stroll down Portland St. and explore some pretty cool shops in Downtown Dartmouth. If at night, cross the street to the Celtic Corner (Irish pub) or take a walk up the street to Battery Park (restaurant/cocktails/craft beer).
