Nova Scotia Favourites

Purple Star emoji 8 items
Some of our favourite sites from Nova Scotia. We drove out for a wedding, but have been out here a few times to visit friends. A great vacation destination if you're looking for a Canadian destination that's far from big city life.

The BEST Croissant I have ever had, and I've been to France. The coffee was great, space was really cool, staff was friendly and welcoming. I wish we had one near us!
Two If By Sea Cafe

Cute little coffee shop in the centre of Lunenburg, NS. Cute tables, great coffee, makes you feel like a local no matter where you're from. Close to the harbour and the local shops.
Laughing Whale Coffee Roasters

One of the coolest coffee shops we’ve found in awhile. Funky, modern aesthetic. Grab your laptop and come work, or grab your pals for a coffee meet up! While you’re here enjoy a Rose Flat White or just take in the aroma of freshly roasted coffee!
East cup cafe

Great spot to sit outside and try local beers while taking in the harbour views! Great for groups or date nights, lots of options for food and drinks. The food is so good!! Highly recommend the Pulled Pork Tacos!
Halifax Beer Garden

Picture pirates coming off their boats and sharing a pint in this basement bar in Halifax Harbour. So many stories to tell - if those walls could talk! Great spot for live music and great beers!
The Lower Deck

Cutest little ocean side town. A bunch locals walking around, GORGEOUS views. Would be an incredible vacation destination if you're looking for a getaway that it away from everything. Fisherman's town with that east coast vibe.
