Too bright, no real design or "comfort" feeling and the large windows seem to just take away the pub feel and you feel like you are in a fish tank. Need to darken it down a bit, add some decor, and add a proper sound system that's not Q104 or TV's playing sports with no sound. I understand it is a new startup and they're also finding their way. These improvements are likely to come down the road, and I hope it's soon. I want this to be my hideaway.

We strive to be known in our community as a friendly face with a standard to produce high quality, great tasting beer that you look forward to drinking.

We love to have fun in the brewery, so you can expect a new brew to pop up from time to time. Cheers!

The backyard burgers with bacon and brioche bun were delicious and the roasted veggie sandwich was a hit. The tofu black bean spread was so good on it. The war fries comes with 3 different sauces and they're possibly twice fried because they're really crispy. We also tried the GOODMORE GOOD POUR kombucha and the NEXT PHAZE hazy IPA. Both were awesome. The hops in the Hazy IPA were unusual and we really liked it. The Kombucha tasted like elderflowers to me. I definitely recommend visiting this place especially if you're here for a day's stopover on a cruise. It's less than a 15 minute walk from the Citadel.

r and a side of screaming: On Sunday 7th April, my friends…read moreand I went to this venue after our inaugural run for a social running club. After a couple of rounds, Henry the (mis)manager refused me service, so a friend offered me his beer, which I took a sip from. Henry's colleague, this miserable and rude woman, then proceeded to shout and scream like an immature child at me - a customer - how I'm making them unsafe at work and demanding that I leave the premises. Of course I leave, who enjoys being screamed at? A few minutes later I'm sitting outside the venue on the street and I'm on the phone to my friend, still at the bar, asking when he'll leave, when Henry comes out to harass me, accusing me of screaming - funny, his idiot colleague just did that to me, yet it's okay if she behaves that way. Isn't that funny? Refusing service is part of your job. Screaming and abuse is not. If you are that incompetent at a simple task and need to resort to shouting to solve a problem, you are clearly in the wrong job. The venue was practically empty, even on Sunday afternoon, which is highly telling of the quality of staff. An extremely disappointing and upsetting experience, Henry and his idiot colleague are an embarrassment to the brewing label and the craft, as a whole.

Your Father's Moustache was such a fun and memorable stop during our Halifax trip. It's got that…read moreclassic English pub feel--but with a quirky moustache-themed twist that gives it extra charm and personality. They've got a great selection of craft beers and cocktails--I went with the Purple Haze and really enjoyed it. Refreshing, balanced, and not overly sweet. For food, I ordered the Chicken and Waffle Sandwich, and wow--it was incredible. Super flavourful, perfectly cooked, and impressively held together even with the runny (and delicious) egg on top. My wife went with the New Orleans pasta, and we were really impressed by how accommodating the kitchen was with her dietary restrictions. They happily swapped out the chicken and ham for shrimp, and the dish still came out beautifully done. You can tell the chef really loves what they do--it absolutely shows in the quality and care of the food. It's easy to see why this place is a local favourite. Great vibe, great service, and fantastic food and drinks. Highly recommend!

Our visit was short since we already had lunch reservations elsewhere, but I'm really glad we stopped by. As soon as you walk in, you definitely still get the feeling of being inside a church, with so many original features and details preserved. We even sat near the "altar," which made the experience even more unique and enjoyable. The ambiance felt almost holy, in the best and funniest way possible. I loved how they transformed the space into a brewery and restaurant while still keeping its character intact. Our server was incredibly nice and attentive. We ordered the chicken tostadas with jalapeño crema, and they were absolutely delicious. The beer was great as well! I ordered a sour beer that I really enjoyed, although unfortunately I can't remember the name of it.

Our main course was crispy cod tails on lemon risotto topped with a terrific sauce of caramelized corn. The sauce was spicy and made the dish. For desert we had a lovely blueberry concoction with the unappealing name of "blueberry grunt"! This wasn't foodie food but super fresh ingredients prepared simply and beautifully. After dinner we moved into the main dining room for a terrific musician playing mostly NS folk music. All in all it was a great evening. Great food, great music, friendly people. If you're in Truro, don't miss the Nook.

We were keeping a close eye on time. At 6:48 we asked about the order and we were told it had only been 20 mins. Not true! At 7:10- still no sign of food - so at 7:13 we decided to get it all to go. We left a 10% tip despite slow service. The other table of four had been served, had eaten, and left by 7:05. I ordered fish and chips. Batter bit thick so uncooked inner dough in few places but fish was delicious. The chips??? I'm just going to post a picture showing total - quantity minus one chip - couldn't eat them! Cole slaw delicious. If you go before a show give them two hours! I honestly think the order was held up. Maybe lots of orders ahead?? but that other table had plenty of time! And they were literally less than 5 minutes at most ahead of us!

I ended up choosing the oysters, nachos and a 1p brown bag fish and chips.

Other than that, I would most definitely take advantage of the happy hour specials from 3-6pm.

From…read morethe moment we walked in, the atmosphere was welcoming and lively without feeling too loud or crowded. Service was warm, attentive, and knowledgeable--especially when it came to the beer. We started with a couple of flights to sample the house brews, and they did not disappoint. Our favourites were the Vic Park, Beacon Blonde, Blueberry Ale, and Honey Wheat--all incredibly well-crafted, fresh, and flavourful. As for the food, it was fantastic. I had the Chorizo and Chicken Penne--perfectly cooked pasta tossed in a rich Cajun cream sauce that really stole the show. The spice level was spot on, and both the chorizo and chicken were tender and packed with flavour. My wife went with the Lobster Mac and Cheese, and it was equally impressive. The lobster was fresh and flaky, and the mac itself was creamy, cheesy, and just the right level of indulgent. We left full, happy, and already planning our next visit. If you're in Halifax and want great food paired with top-notch local brews, Gahan House should be high on your list.
