Fish ‘n Chips at Shaw’s Landing
Shaw’s Landing 6958 Peggys Cove Road, West Dover, NS Rating: 8.5/10 I took LuShark out for her first trip to Peggy’s Cove and we planned on feasting at Fisherman’s Corner, which, as it turns out, no longer exists. Instead, we went to another West Dover restaurant – Shaw’s Landing. It may have been our backup…

Return to John’s Lunch
John’s Lunch 352 Pleasant St, Dartmouth, NS Rating: 5/10 When I first started questing for the best fish ‘n’ chips in Halifax, the famous John’s Lunch was my first stop. You can read my 2013 review here in which I wasn’t all that impressed. Now that I’ve tried fish ‘n’ chips from 14 other places around…

HFX Fish ‘n’ Chips Quest: Sydelle’s Restaurant
Sydelle’s Restaurant 733 Rocky Lake Dr, Bedford Rating: 6.5/10 My latest fish ‘n’ chips excursion brought me to uncharted territory somewhere between the Bedford Common and the Bedford Industrial Park. Sydelles Restaurant sits unassumingly on the corner of Duke St and Rocky Lake Drive (take Exit 4C off the 102). I forget how Sydelle’s found…

Best Lobster Rolls in Halifax (Updated 2021)
I originally wrote this post back in 2015, after I had been tasked with writing an article for The Coast’s Hot Summer Guide (2014).

HFX Fish ‘n’ Chips Quest: Wharf Wraps
Wharf Wraps 104 Government Wharf Rd, Eastern Passage, NS Rating: 6.5/10 Wharf Wraps, located in touristy Fisherman’s Cove, is too upscale to be pub food. Its black tablecloths, square plates and green curtains create a strange vibe that is not fine dining, but not exactly casual. I would go as far as to say that…

HFX Fish ‘n’ Chips Quest: Fredie’s Fantastic Fish House
Fredie’s Fantastic Fish House 8 Oland Crescent, Halifax, NS Rating: 7/10 The first time I heard about Fredie’s Fantastic Fish House, I had to give my head a shake. A tourist in an online forum was recommending it to another tourist. “Best fish ‘n’ chips!” they said. My eyebrows raised. Bayers Lake, you say? I…

Digby Scallop Quest
*Update – July 2018: This blog post remains one of my most popular, despite being out-of-date. A couple of the restaurants I visited have closed down permanently. I’ve also been back to Digby to try more scallops! I have left the post as it is, but have indicated which restaurants are no longer operating. There…

HFX Fish ‘n’ Chips Quest: Harbour Fish ‘N Fries
Harbour Fish ‘n Fries 7886 Highway 7, Musquodoboit Harbour, NS Rating: 7/10 I know I said I was going to Freddie’s Fantastic Fish House or Wharf Wraps this time, but I couldn’t pass up the opportunity for a beach day with MGyver and a trip to Musquodoboit Harbour for some back-country fish ‘n’ chips. Musquodoboit is…
