14 Best Wine Bars in Halifax

“Loved our evening at Obladee! We came during the jazz festival so the live music was fantastic, our server was attentive and very friendly, and the wine selection was wonderful. The portions were a little smaller than expected but I really enjoyed the summer salad and charcuterie.“

“We came here just for drinks and did not have a chance to explore the food — maybe next time. The cocktails we tried were simple but very delicious, and our bartender was friendly, kind, and helpful with recommendations. Looking forward to coming back and trying the food as well.“

“Peacock hosted our large party of 12 beautifully with great timing and attention. Would absolutely bring a group here again! Food was delicious, I loved the cod. For the cheese plates, several people recommended a second dip be added (ex. mustard) but still loved it.

Thank you!!!!“

“We were celebrating our anniversary and looking for a special place. Everyone said go to the Bicycle Thief. We were not disappointed. The food and wine were superb. We loved the lobster risotto. Katie, our server, was amazing. We can’t wait to return. Thank you for a fantastic dinner.“

“Best lounge I’ve been in Halifax thus far!“

“The pizza Lou Fada and Lou Buou were delicious. Our server Solana was lovely, informative and obviously enjoyed serving. It was so nice to see Cedric chat with patrons at the tables and check on his guests. A great dinner. Thank-you.“

“Small but mighty sit down restaurant. I treated it like a fast food joint and was not disappointed. Food came out quickly and tasted great. My waitress, Anastasia, is one of the nicest and most down to earth people, and was a pleasure to chat with.“

“The cocktails are fabulous and unique and it’s great to watch them prepare the drinks and food with such expertise and finesse“

“Absolutely amazing Italian food, a beautiful restaurant and delightful service!! I couldn't recommend it more highly!“

“A Hidden Gem!

Reta's is a delightful spot where every dish bursts with flavor and the service is always warm and welcoming. From the first bite to the last, everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. It's a quiet, cozy place that lets you truly enjoy your meal and the company you're with. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a relaxing dining experience with amazing food!

I wish the plating of the duck dish would be a bit different. We couldn't enjoy the sauce much without ordering the sourdough bread. Also if spoons were provided without asking as the sauces go to waste and we cannot enjoy them with the fork so the amazing sauces are wasted.“

“We had our small wedding group here for dinner post ceremony. It was the perfect space (the Rhino room) and fit all 27 of us. Booking was easy, the staff and food was fantastic and delicious. And they were so accommodating to our guests with allergies. Cannot recommend it enough!“

“If you would like an amazing culinary experience then you should definitely try the Barrington Steakhouse! From the moment we walked in, we were treated like royalty. The staff were absolutely incredible. The host, the server, the bartender were all so great and made our dinning experience unforgettable. The food though, was definitely where the term “chef’s kiss” must have originated from. It was quite evident, that the chef takes pride in all of the dishes. The Beef Wellington well exceeded my expectations. Definitely 5 star rating!“

“Great place for a drink. Martinis are amazing.“

“great spot for cocktails.“
