7 – Gahan House Harbourfront 1869 Upper Water Street – Downtown Halifax Located on the Halifax boardwalk, this patio offers beautiful views and enough room for a large group, too. Atmosphere: Classic pub What to Order: Gahan House is actually a PEI-based craft brewery, so you can’t go wrong with any of their handcrafted beers. 8 – Durty Nelly’s 1645 Argyle Street – Downtown Halifax A wrap-around patio on one of downtown Halifax’s hottest corners keeps this patio on best-of lists year after year. Atmosphere: Traditional Irish Pub What to Order: Their Caesars and whisky list are legendary but for a hot summer’s day you can’t beat a freshly pulled pint of beer (there are dozens on tap). 9 – Good Robot Brewing Company 2736 Robie Street – North End Halifax This North End craft brewery has a charming, (and dog-friendly!) outdoor space that’s more of a beer garden than a patio. Bonus: many of the beers at Good Robot are gluten-reduced. Atmosphere: Casual and hip. Think: picnic tables and astro-turf. What to Order: The taps change regularly, but our go-to is the El Espinazo del Diablo. It’s a lager with a kick. 217 HALIFAX
