What is culture without food?
The Best of Halifax is all about shining a light on what makes Halifax one of the greatest cities to live in, and no small part of that is the restaurants, diners, pubs, breweries, markets, and independent grocers who bring a piece of their culture to the food and drink they create.
There’s a spot for every flavour you could imagine in our city, and our readers chose what they consider to be the best of the best, from their favourite pizzaerias to their most celebrated ciders. If you’ve ever needed a dinner recommendation, our readers have you covered with their picks for the Best of Halifax 2026: Food + Drink category, now available to read on our Best of Halifax 2026 page.
Thank you to all who voted, and for another wonderful Best of Halifax!
