Too bright, no real design or "comfort" feeling and the large windows seem to just take away the pub feel and you feel like you are in a fish tank. Need to darken it down a bit, add some decor, and add a proper sound system that's not Q104 or TV's playing sports with no sound. I understand it is a new startup and they're also finding their way. These improvements are likely to come down the road, and I hope it's soon. I want this to be my hideaway.

After years of recipe formulation, we are fortunate enough to be able to offer an extensive list of rotating craft beer to keep things fun and exciting.

Nova Scotia's first and largest cidery. Don't let the name fool you; they also make fruit wines!…read more While it may be a little bit off the beaten path for some folks, this location is worth visiting for sure. It's right off highway 12 and just a few kilometres outside of the town of New Ross. You can't miss it. They've got a brewpub in Halifax but this is better because you can talk with the alchemist behind the craft on site. The selection is just huge and you can sample whatever you want first before buying. The little retail hut is TINY but it does have three stools for sampling. There is literally something here for everyone. We like dry ciders and there are a lot of options. But there are also in between and even sweeter options. Lots of sweet fruit wine options as well for folks who haven't refined or figured out their palate yet, too. Definitely check this place out if you're heading up or down the highway!

When I found out this used to be a church that was converted into a brewing company, I was so…read moreexcited to check it out. Our visit was short since we already had lunch reservations elsewhere, but I'm really glad we stopped by. As soon as you walk in, you definitely still get the feeling of being inside a church, with so many original features and details preserved. We even sat near the "altar," which made the experience even more unique and enjoyable. The ambiance felt almost holy, in the best and funniest way possible. I loved how they transformed the space into a brewery and restaurant while still keeping its character intact. Our server was incredibly nice and attentive. We ordered the chicken tostadas with jalapeño crema, and they were absolutely delicious. The beer was great as well! I ordered a sour beer that I really enjoyed, although unfortunately I can't remember the name of it.

Quality/Quantity - A slow welcome, but once we all got warmed up, it was an amazing visit. It helped that I have been drinking the whole day today, lol. Sampled ALL the IPAs, and then ordered a few. Settled for the Blur Hazy IPA or two, lol. Food is available, but I am on a liquid diet today. Ambiance - Small local brewery. Almost no customers, so I got full attention. Indoor and outdoor seating. 3 clean unisex toilets. Open 7 days a week. Had the longest and best business hours of all the breweries we visited! Thank you. Just not enough day drinkers or Happy Hour drinkers in this part of Canada, lol. Service - 6 stars. Not sure if he was a manager or owner...? Or just a very passionate team member. Also, it was a one person army. Not sure if there were people in the back or kitchen...? Amazingly friendly after we got settled in. He tried really hard to find my "perfect" beer; he just kept bringing me samples. See pictures. Price - $9 CAD a pint + tax and tip; $15 USD + tip. (2 pints). Expensive for Canada prices, but worth it!!! Owner Comment - Congrats on all your success.

Everything is so good here! The beef dip was the special today and it was so good. Crunchy baguette…read morewith hot beef and caramelized onions to dip in au jus. The backyard burgers with bacon and brioche bun were delicious and the roasted veggie sandwich was a hit. The tofu black bean spread was so good on it. The war fries comes with 3 different sauces and they're possibly twice fried because they're really crispy. We also tried the GOODMORE GOOD POUR kombucha and the NEXT PHAZE hazy IPA. Both were awesome. The hops in the Hazy IPA were unusual and we really liked it. The Kombucha tasted like elderflowers to me. I definitely recommend visiting this place especially if you're here for a day's stopover on a cruise. It's less than a 15 minute walk from the Citadel.

I've been there 4 times in December because it's great! It's not anywhere near anyplace I go -…read morethat's how good it is... I made a point to venture out this way 4 times!!! Each time I went, there were different people working the front (fantastic customer service; all were super-friendly). All kinds of enjoyable beer - they'll let you try them. AND guess what?!? I loved all the ones I tried, even the ones I didn't think I'd like. So I encourage you to taste test: I haven't had a Nine Locks I didn't like. My favourite was the pumpkin ale and I bought several for the Xmas season - to not only drink but to share with others. I like the store a lot and there are many items that would make a great gift for a beer lover. I like the steel growlers, the glasses with the clever lines, the gift baskets and the clothing items. And BONUS... it's right next to Mic Mac Tavern - so, go get something good to eat and then pick up some beer cans or a growler for home.

What an amazing little spot! This beautiful little brewery is filled with TONS of amazing beer and…read morepeople. Their flight blocks are cute and fun and made out to resemble a little train cart. They have 9 taps for beer and have quite the selection. Currently they have 'good grief charlie' a brown ale and 'wheat in the knees' which were all amazing. They have a tiny kitchen with a small but heart menu of salads, chilli cheese dogs and flatbreads (and a few other things). The staff are absolutely amazing, knowledgeable and will do anything for you, as someone who prefers a root beer to beer - they went out of their way to get me a sprite (which blew my mind). My partner absolutely enjoyed this lovely time. They also have a few games to play! Highly recommend this little brewery, it's small but it is mighty delicious.

Love this place!…read more Been going since it opened last December and it's always a great experience. Follow them on Facebook and Twitter and I think Instagram too - so you know their hours, what's new on tap, what's on the guest taps (buy local!). Trivia night #2 was a success! We ordered pizza this time from Rocky Lake Pizza across the street and omg that was the perfect meal paired with the perfect Off Track brew. I had the Sessional IPA on tap 8 (I forgot the name) and it was soooo tasty that I had two (not like me). The rest of my party went for the Damn Skippy (peanut butter mmmmm - you have to try it). Flights are a way to sample several brews - usually I do that. Love the merch! Normally, I don't buy this stuff from places but I have several items already and I'm most definitely getting the zip up hoodie next time. Lots more I can say, like... Dog friendly establishment. Projector for watching "the sports". Clean. Friendly faces - who will explain the various brews on tap. No kitchen - but you can bring your food there - ask the guys, they'll be happy to help.

A little spicy, but not too coyingly spicy as I am very sensitive to spice. The pina colada was done very well, nice, and creamy. The bruschetta was the winner of this lineup though. It was made very well. With what I believe to be a dollup of sour cream on the top. The wait time was appropriate and the serving was very appropriate as well. You can't go wrong with a good Paddy's meal.

They've got a great selection of craft beers and cocktails--I went with the Purple Haze and really enjoyed it. Refreshing, balanced, and not overly sweet. For food, I ordered the Chicken and Waffle Sandwich, and wow--it was incredible. Super flavourful, perfectly cooked, and impressively held together even with the runny (and delicious) egg on top. My wife went with the New Orleans pasta, and we were really impressed by how accommodating the kitchen was with her dietary restrictions. They happily swapped out the chicken and ham for shrimp, and the dish still came out beautifully done. You can tell the chef really loves what they do--it absolutely shows in the quality and care of the food. It's easy to see why this place is a local favourite. Great vibe, great service, and fantastic food and drinks. Highly recommend!

It's…read morebeen seven years since I graduated, and I came back to Halifax with my wife for our honeymoon. Your Father's Moustache was always a favourite of mine, especially the Wings Night - $1 wings were my go‑to comfort food. Unfortunately, the experience was extremely disappointing. When I tried to order, the server asked for ID. I didn't have my physical passport on me, but I offered a clear photo of it on my phone, along with my wife's. We are both clearly over age - I'm 32 and she's 28. I even said we would be happy to order no alcohol - just wings to eat in or even take out. The staff refused every option, insisting on a physical ID only. I explained that this was a special trip for us, and that I had been looking forward to this meal for years. The response was a flat "no" with no flexibility or empathy. I understand that restaurants need to follow rules, but denying a take‑out order or a non‑alcoholic dine‑in meal to two adults who are obviously of legal age - and who have photographic proof - feels unnecessarily rigid and customer‑unfriendly. Many places accept digital ID or at least allow takeout without checking ID. This policy makes no sense and cost you loyal customers who travelled thousands of kilometres to revisit a fond memory. Very poor customer service. We left hungry and heartbroken. I won't be coming back, and I'll think twice before recommending this place to anyone.
