Things To Do

Halifax Waterfront

With lots of shops, places to eat, and a great view of the harbour, this is the epicenter of life in downtown Halifax.

Point Pleasant Park

Calvin and Ophelia's favorite place to go for walks, and a beautiful place to walk around during the fall. Many birds, and other small wildlife to see, with breathtaking views of the harbour and north-west arm.

Halifax Public Gardens

Beautifully manicured garden, founded in the Victorian era. Fun Fact we learned on the Harbour Hopper: the pathways throughout the gardens were created exactly wide enough to fit two ladies hoop skirts, so women could walk side-by-side without tripping over each others dresses.

Cabin Coffee

If you're looking for a local coffee house, they have great brew and delicious treats - and its not a far walk away from the waterfront either!

Stillwell

If you like craft beer, Stillwell is a great place to hangout and try some local taps! There is also a Stillwell beer garden on Spring Garden Rd. that is worth a look, weather permitting as it is outdoors.

The Old Apothecary

One of the best places to get a fresh loaf of bread. Located right down the street from the wedding venue, it also offers classic french pastries, and pour-over espresso or coffee.

Gahan House

Right underneath the new convention centre, has great food and a great vibe.

Pickford & Black

Heartwood Hydrostone

Really good vegetarian eats in the north end of Halifax

The Oxford Taproom
