The comedy isn't the funniest thing in the world, but hey it's free and something to do on a Tuesday night! The drinks are pretty reasonably priced. I wouldn't come here for the food unless you love bar food. I had the nachos for my meal and my husband had the Philly steak poutine. He loved the poutine because he does love bar food. I have a sensitive stomach so the nachos were quite unpleasant for me. If I could redo my Tuesday night, I would eat food elsewhere, and come here for just the drinks & live comedy.

They have 12 beers on tap, and various beers on cans and bottles. Food seems to be mostly sharable appetizers. We tried: - Propeller Galaxy (6.5% $7.6 for 16oz): hazy IPA style, simple, a hint of hoppy. - Trailway Voyager (7.8% $7 for 12 oz): like a hazy IPA, citrus, sweet, smooth.

The downtown Dartmouth scene is in an ebb and flow, transforming with some new additions but still…read moremanaging to maintain its very real and gritty nature. Then amidst the uncertainty, there stands Whiskey's - the paradigm of Dartmouth pub life, rolled into this Portland Street venue. I was reminded of Whiskey's when some of my pals went the other day. They ordered a pizza, sans cheese and tomato sauce (allergies and veganism) and the employees and cooks very happy to oblige. When I was there last, I sat on the patio and enjoyed the 5pm traffic and street activity with a posse of friends. There were very drunk people milling about, some screamers having matches, as well as workers enjoying beverages post workday. We ordered some pitchers and enjoyed the sun, before it disappeared behind one of the buildings. This is a great Dartmouth pub, worth the trip across the bridge. The patrons are colorful and unpredictable and the service is pretty great. Grab a brew and enjoy the always entertaining downtown Dartmouth scene.

When I lived on the Dartmouth side of the bridge, Whiskey's was usually my choice for a few post…read morework drinks, as it was within walking distance of both home and work. The atmosphere is extremely laid back, with a few VLTs lining one of the walls. There would often be a performer with a guitar and some classic cover tunes. There was one guy in particular that would do the theme song from "The Littlest Hobo" which went over quite well with myself and almost everyone else there. Whiskey's itself has no kitchen, but their menu is prepared next door by the same owners at Revana Pizza. There is an adjoining door between the two, which is helpful, because alas, Whiskey's has no washrooms. You simply cross through into the bright lights of the pizza joint to use their facilities. I especially enjoyed Whiskey's in the summer. The patio offers a nice view of the harbour, as well as some prime and varied people viewing. Now that I have crossed the bridge, making Downtown Halifax my home, I no longer stop in to Whiskey's, but there are times when I do miss it a little bit. It was the perfect relaxed location for me to unwind after a stressful work day, with almost no chance of running into a client, or someone I might know. Perhaps this summer I'll stop in for a pint or two, before boarding the ferry to Halifax, for old time's sake.

Once upon a time, this was a gorgeous, classy space where you could order one of the best cocktails in the city. Unfortunately over the years, the rest of the city has grown up and the Bitter End has stayed exactly the same. Today, their martinis (that are actually sugary cocktails in martini glasses) fail to compete with some of the craft cocktails available elsewhere, the service often borders on apathetic, and the food never quite recovered from the menu reduction that happened several years ago. I could get over one or two of these things, but not all three at once. It's not all bad though. Sometimes you'll get a nice server, you'll almost *always* get an attractive one, I dig the soundtrack and DJs that they bring in, and they do boast prime patio real estate in the summers.

Our server was very efficient, and brought our food and drinks out very quickly. She was very sweet and came back often to make sure that we didn't need anything else.
