Great spot for getting fresh live lobster. Very reasonable prices with lots of lobster available. I…read morecame here on a Sunday and got 8 lobsters for just over $10 a pound. Plus, I bought a few other items for enjoying my "lobster-with-friends-party". I also enjoyed walking around the area like the peaceful marsh or shopping. Definitely a good place to go and make half a day out of it.

Or take a drive out to the farm between Lunenburg and Mahone Bay (I'd leave that trip for the summer, personally). The cutest little scallops that actually "breathe" and dance right in front of you remind me of Walt Disney's version of Alice in Wonderland when the Walrus invites the scallops to lunch. Okay we won't go there, but....seriously, these are the best ever and your guests will be wowed every time you serve them.

Very well informed and willing to provide any help required from what to buy to how to prepare. Prices were very reasonable. Couldn't have been fresher unless I caught it myself.

This is a great stop along the route to Peggy's Cove in Nova Scotia. Wholesaler located right…read morealong the water staffed with informative representatives. Dave gave us information about: the lifecycle of a lobster, how to determine the sex of a lobster, how there is one large cracking claw and a slightly smaller grabber claw, the general ages based on size, putting a lobster to sleep, how lobsters are caught in a trap, how to put a rubber band around the claws, ... yep a whole bunch of information on the "lobsta". To top the information provided, Dave brought out various sizes ranging from a pound to bigger than 2.5 pounds. He said he has seen an eight pounder... As for eating, they used to cook up the lobsters on site but that was shut down by complaints from Halifax and local seafood restaurants. They do ship by FedEx worldwide.

Went twice during our visit in Halifax. Had to try lobster roll which only came on Saturdays…read more Lobster roll was much better than from restaurants (less mayo, more lobster meat and less expensive).

TL;DR/The Short Version: Popular Farmers' Market. Too…read morecrowded for me. A good variety of vendors, but I prefer the Halifax Brewery Market, personally. The Long Version: When my husband and I were in Halifax recently, we did 2 Markets back-to-back, this one and the Halifax Brewery Market and I personally liked the Halifax Brewery Market better, as it had more interesting foods and vendors and wasn't as crowded. My impression is that this Halifax Seaport Farmers' Market is more for tourists and the Halifax Brewery Market is more for locals, but I could be wrong. I got a Pancit Bihon for my husband and I to share at Pinoy's Best Halifax. It was $7 for a small serving. It tasted good and had this Liptons Chicken Soup smell that I loved, lol. Weird, I know. I just didn't like that they microwaved it in a plastic container. I would have preferred it if it was kept in metal warming trays and served into a cardboard container. My husband got a 4L jug of Maple syrup from Ripley's Maple ($58) for his sister. She was coming to Halifax too but not when the Halifax Seaport Farmers' Market would be open so she asked him to get it for her. He gave it to her in Halifax and she was driving home, so we cannot attest to whether the jug would survive a flight in checked baggage, it would be at your own risk, lol. I'm glad we checked out this market. If we were in the area again on future visits to Halifax I would drop by, but I wouldn't specifically plan to go to it like we did this time. (179)

Probably the busiest spot at the Halifax Stanfield International Airport is the Clearwater Seafood…read moreshop and no wonder. A fresh lobster is probably the most uniquely Maritime souvenir to take back home, and no one does it better than Clearwater. Lobsters are fresh and glorious looking and won't last long once you get them back home. And for the non-lobster lovers, there are other foodie gifts to take home. I do have to add that, while the price of the lobsters is competitive, there are additional costs to consider. After all, you can't expect the lobsters to sit in the seat next to you.

One of the best fish and chips places in the HRM. Located in Dartmouth by the ferry terminal…read more There's seating and a patio with take out as well. All the seafood is fresh - you can also buy some if you want to make it yourself! But eat here, save yourself the hassle. Always get the fish and chips. Two piece if you are hungry - three if you are famished. Their coating is different from most places - more of a breading versus beer battered. Family run. Fantastic place

Ordered seafood chowder to go. Two bowls cost $20 each.

Counter service only but the attendent was very friendly. Broad menu including seafood , salads, sushi and rice bowls. I ordered and paid for a one piece fish and chips but received two reasonable sized pieces. Even with one piece prices are reasonable. The fish was very good, light batter and fresh tasting. The fry order was generous and perfectly seasoned. The order came with an obligatory tub of slaw and tartar, both pretty good. They also sell fresh and frozen seafood and baked items. Great to have this venue in the neighbourhood.

Fish was wonderful. Loved the crispy batter. Plenty of fish on a 1 piece. Fries are nothing…read morespecial.

Went to this Belgian chocolatier to try the dipped cone. See what all the hype was about…read more Basically soft serve ice cream come (several flavours) that are dipped into a variety of chocolate. Tried lemon dark chocolate and orange dark chocolate. The best part of the dipped cone was the chocolate. It forms a fairly thick shell over the soft serve. The actual soft serve and cone are nothing to write home about - mediocre to average. Small seating area indoors and a few tables outside. Can also purchase their chocolates.

Absolutely delicious confections and dipped cones. Friendly service, clean and cool ambiance…read more Highly recommend the raspberry sorbet dipped in dark Leonidas chocolate!
