Henry House PUB $$$

(1222 Barrington St; mains $11-20; 11:30am-midnight) Yeah, it's a pub, but the fish cakes
are consistently rated the best in town and the bread pudding is legendary. Nosh all this
with a frothy pint in a dimly lit and distinctly English-feeling basement or outside on the
deck when the sun's out.
Chives Canadian Bistro CANADIAN $$$

( 902-420-9626; 1537 Barrington St; mains $17-35; 5-9:30pm) The menu changes with
what's seasonably available and uses mostly local ingredients. The food is fine dining,
while the low-lit cozy ambience is upscale casual.

( 902-423-0859; 1496 Lower Water St; mains $28-34; 5-10pm Mon-Sat) Many locals cite
this as their favorite Halifax restaurant. The ambience is as fine as the cuisine; exposed
brick and clean lines bring out all the flavors of this heritage brewery building. Reserva-
tions are strongly recommended.
Drinking & Nightlife
Halifax rivals Saint John's, Newfoundland, for the most drinking holes per capita. The
biggest concentration of attractive bars is on Argyle St, where temporary street-side
patios expand the sidewalk each summer. Pubs and bars close at 2am (a few hours earlier
on Sunday).
Lower Deck PUB

( 902-422-1501; 1869 Lower Water St) A first stop for a real Nova Scotian knee-slapping
good time. Think pints in frothy glasses, everyone singing, and live music all spilling out
over the sidewalks on summer nights. When someone yells 'sociable!' it's time to raise
your glass.
