Gold Winner Ardmore Tea Room
Silver Winner The Coastal Cafe
Bronze Winner Cora, Halifax
There are only so many places people are willing to get up at five in the morning for, and one of them is the Ardmore Tea Room. Classic to say the least, the Quinpool Road diner has been helping folks start their days since 1958 with quick and consistent service, seemingly bottomless coffees, fluffy pancakes, homey hollandaise and eggs every way imaginable. Whether you’re nursing a hangover in a corner booth or up before the sun to get a jumpstart on the day—this spot is synonymous with comfort. That’s why the Ardmore’s well-oiled, greasy spoon, breakfast machine takes the gold for the second consecutive year.
