Have been researching coffee places to try on our 2 week adventure to NS. Of course, staying in…read moreLunenburg the first option and plenty written about was Laughing Whale. Stopped in on our first morning. Great menu and list of options including pastries and food items. Being a coffee "nerd" it was cool seeing the grinders, drippers, filters, etc on the wall for purchase! Everything was great! Kids loved the cookies, we loved the sausage roll and our coffees were absolutely fantastic. Great flavor, perfect size, and very knowledgeable! I started to have an allergic reaction later in the day so we started tracking down what I had in the day - gave them a call and they helped out with ingredients that they knew of. Later on in the day, we received a phone call back from Steve who had gone out of his way to call his local sources for more ingredient knowledge. Definitely wasn't expecting a return call with extra information! Incredibly nice people and we are already planning our coffee order for tomorrow!

At last, a physical location for the great, strong coffee roasted by these folks. Previously only…read moreavailable at farmer markets and their roadside stand, you can now sit in and enjoy their great coffee with specialty options. They do have some baking that they bring in from Blockhouse bakery Boulangerie La Vemdéenne which is one of the best in the province. They also sell a small selection of coffee supplies/makers.

Newly opened cafe in the former Mera Restaurant. Nice French inspired interior. Long hours -…read morefrom 7 am to 11 pm - unique in Halifax for a coffee shop other than Starbucks. Have a full coffee/espresso based drinks menu along with pastries made in house daily. Came in the morning so cinnamon roll was fairly fresh. Large interior with lots of seating - roomy with free wifi so could loiter surfing the internet or doing work. They do have meals - mainly sandwiches and crepes. Will try some other time Probably still having some growing pains as just opened a month or so ago. Will definitely try again!

Honestly this spot was one of the highlights of my time in Halifax. Hubby and I stopped here on a…read moreMonday morning just after 11am. We ordered coffee (americano and caffe latte) and some pastries (chocolate caneli, butter croissant, and two macaroons). The owner was friendly and efficient in serving his customers in such a small place. He was the only one working! The food was amazing and the coffee was strong and delicious.

Come right when they open for a WARM, buttery, perfect croissant. Amazing flavor, clearly handmade…read morewith love, and once the case is empty they're all gone for the day! If you prefer more of a shattering crackle croissant, LF Bakery is slightly further away but has longer hours, more croissants, and a divine sweet brioche. They're clearly #1 and #2 in Halifax for a reason. Happy eating!

Cafe that's full of character in the Brewery Market. Came on a weekday - lots of seating…read more Rustic interior. Free wifi. Had a bagel with cream cheese and cappuccino. Both tasty. Nice relaxing music in the background. Definitely a place to return to. Probably very busy during the Saturday farmers market!!

There's a lot of options for coffee when I'm at work on the waterfront, but Terra Cafe in the…read moreBrewery Market has quickly become one of my favourites. The coffee (I'm always getting their medium roast drip, black), is top notch with quality beans from local roasters or big names from further afield. Their food menu isn't huge, but they've got a handful of breakfast sandwiches (bonus points for the all day breakfast!), with a few other lunch options. I've gotten their standard breakfast sandwich a couple times now, and I don't need a Magic 8-Ball to tell me that it's also in my future! A fluffy egg comes topped with fresh lettuce and tomato, a slice of real cheddar, your choice of a maple or garlic aioli, as well as either bacon or avocado. The challah bun steals the show though, with its signature egg-iness, lightly crisp crust and a soft but supple crumb that supported the goodness within. I recently pulled myself away from this breakfast banger to try out one of their lunch sandwiches, the Italian cold cut. A few types of salami come between a delightfully airy focaccia, with your choice of cheese (Swiss for me) and flavoured mayo (garlic). Pickled red onion brightened things up with a lightly tart bite and paired well with the sweet and tangy red vinaigrette. It was a lunchtime classis that got punched up with quality components. The southern ends of Barrington/Hollis/Lower Water are chock full of caffeine slingers, but Terra Cafe checks all the boxes with its atmosphere, food and drinks.

Such a cool, funky coffee shop. It's basically a coffee shop in a record store. You walk in and…read moreimmediately you are enveloped by the nice analog and mellow sound of vinyl playing on a vacuum tube amplified record player. There's a certain Asian flare to the interior - there was incense burning for a period of time while I was there. Have coffee and espresso based drinks. Beans ground on the spot - from their Toronto roaster (this is the only Rooms Coffee outside of Toronto) All kinda of nooks and crannnies to sit in. Went on a weekday so not terribly busy. Super chill. Love the vibe. No other coffee shop like it in Halifax!!!
