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!

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.

Another cog in the Bertossi Group chain of restaurants. On a busy corner of Spring Garden and…read moreQueen Street this place is always full! On Summer days they have nice outdoor seating and a gelato cart. Unique location that is round with wrap around windows with seating. Great for people watching. I find the best things are the pastries. They also have sandwiches, paninis and a small menu of hot goods (quiche, lasagna) On the pricier end but worth it for the high quality.

Love this place! It was crowded, but my husband and I managed to find 2 seatings along the window…read morecounter table. They have beautiful pastries, delicious looking sandwiches, and assortment of coffee drinks. We got 2 desserts, cappuccino, and Americano. Desserts were not too sweet and delicious, and the drinks were made well. The service is also lovely, helpful, and friendly. Would love to come back here when we come back to Halifax!

We stopped by here as they were the most legit looking coffee place near where we were staying in…read moreHalifax. Upon arrival, we were the only customers there, but they had just opened. Please note that their hours on Yelp say 6am - 10am, but it's really 7:30am - 6pm Mon. - Sat., and 8:30am - 4pm on Sun. They have a fairly large space inside and it's very modern looking and clean. There were 3 ladies working behind the coffee bar, and they all seemed very nice and customer-service oriented. I ordered a 12 oz pumpkin spice latte with almond milk and it was over $7, which I thought was a bit pricey, therefore the 4 stars instead of 5. Their coffee is very good though, just expensive.
