This NSLC is, dare I say, sweet!? There aren't a ton of offerings, but there are cold beer fridges, including individual can purchases. As well, they have some upscale wine selections complete with heaping price tags. The place is fairly small; with just a couple of aisles within a small square shaped space, it's a perfect addition to the Alderney Landing Centre. It would be nice if their individual beer choices were in bottles instead of in cans, but oh well. A Rickard's White was purchased and enjoyed in the sunshine, thanks to this great NSLC.

I don't buy alcohol often but when I do, it's usually here…read more Okay, Internet memes aside, let's belabour a key point. This location is relatively small, minuscule, petite, cozy, tiny, wee, itty-bitty, Lilliputian, teensy-weensy, etc. Your expectations have been set that it's small? Good. Now, apply that knowledge to their selection. Think about it... Take your time. .. That's right! They don't have a very big selection. It's mostly the most popular brands of liquor in any category. If you're a wine connoisseur, this is not the spot for you. If you're looking to pick up a few drinks for the weekend (or weekday, who'm I to judge), you'll be much happier. The location is great! For those using the ferry to cross the harbour, they can grab something to go before/after their ride. If you've got a car, there is a much larger location near the Dartmouth entrance to the MacDonald Bridge. Staff are helpful and it's always well-staffed.

The worst experience in a town full of fabulous service. Woman working in the store today wearing a…read moreturquoise blue tee shirt could not have been more rude.

Great wine shop! If you have the time, look around at some of the unique and interesting varieties…read more Guaranteed, you'll find something you haven't heard of/tried before. I personally think Bishop's Cellar would benefit from having a bit more of a description system. Perhaps a little placard with some details: eg: dry, full, organic. These are also excellent for stipulating how wines have placed in wine shows. eg: 91 pts. Whether or not you're a connoisseur you can use these to determine which ones you might be interested in trying. That's as opposed to picking the bottle with the prettiest design/colour combo. (hey, that's what I fall back on) Good local and imported cold beer options too! The absolute selling point of Bishop's Cellar has to be the hours they keep. A beer/wine store that's open until midnight on Friday's and Saturday's as well as holidays has been a saving grace for me on more than one occasion!

While vacationing in Halifax, we made a point of visiting Bicycle Thief after hearing countless…read morerecommendations from friends. The restaurant is hard to miss, with several bright red bicycles decorating the entrance--a charming nod to its name and a great photo opportunity. We stopped by around 3 p.m. without a reservation and were pleasantly surprised to snag a table for two despite the restaurant being quite busy. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere felt warm, cozy, and inviting. The service was equally impressive--professional, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. Unfortunately, I wasn't feeling my best that day, so I kept my order simple with a hot tea and the Beef Carpaccio. Our server immediately noticed I was under the weather and thoughtfully made sure I always had a fresh supply of hot water for my tea. It was such a small gesture, but it made a big difference and spoke volumes about the level of hospitality. The Beef Carpaccio was absolute perfection. Made with AAA beef tenderloin, it was delicate, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. I only wish I had been feeling better so I could have explored more of the menu. My boyfriend ordered the Linguine all'Aragosta, featuring local lobster, tomato, garlic, vino bianco, cream, and parmigiano. I managed to steal two bites, and it was heavenly--rich, fresh, and packed with flavor. The lobster was perfectly cooked, and the sauce was indulgent without being heavy. Lastly, we ordered the creme brulee and it was perfection! Creamy with the perfect brulee sugar top crack and not too sweet. It's easy to see why Bicycle Thief has become such a Halifax institution and why it's reportedly one of Sidney Crosby's favorite local restaurants. Between the exceptional food, attentive service, and inviting ambiance, it absolutely lived up to the hype. We can't wait to return on a future visit--and hopefully next time I'll be healthy enough to enjoy even more of the menu.
