This was my first time going into the train station ANBL and I was really impressed! When you walk in you see the main liquor & wine area (good size) and the chilled section at the back, but if you turn to the right you'll be rewarded with a craft beer area! You can wander through and find craft beer from across the Maritimes, Quebec and Ontario - maybe even further afield. Most of it was chilled in fridges, but at the end there were taps and an employee who could fill growlers and was knowledgeable about the flavours and specifics of the different craft beer.
I walked out with lots of new local craft beer and ciders to try that I don't see available in Nova Scotia. I would definitely go back.
They provide shopping cards, baskets and those baskets you can drag behind you to carry your products around the store.
The fact that they renovated the old train station makes it extra special. There is tons of parking and the Crosstown trail runs alongside it, so you could easily walk or bike there too. (I forget if there was bike parking though.)
I would definitely go back and would recommend this location. read more
