Café Goodluck in Dartmouth

We really enjoyed this place! Great atmosphere, lovely coffee. Try the cookies!

Amazing gluten free breakfast sandwiches. Wonderful coffee, wonderful atmosphere

Great coffee. I love their seasonal drinks.

The hot chocolate was neither hot nor sweet and had a bitter after taste. Couldnt finish it. Service was fine and we got our items quickly.

Loved the coffee and vegan cookie was a good decision

Coolest cafe in hrm? Maybe!

Great spot, excellent coffee, and a fun atmosphere. The staff are very welcoming .

Some of the best coffee in the city, the foods always great, and the atmosphere is so fun and cozy. I recently dropped a coffee in the cafe and the staff were SO kind and helpful. (If youre reading this thanks again!)

Food is good and staff are friendly, but for a café the service is unbelievably slow. A lot of customers have set lunch breaks and can t afford to wait at the counter for 15 minutes just to order and another 15-20 minutes for their order to be done, especially when it s something as simple as a soup and grilled cheese to go. I m typically not one to make a fuss about things but I had a gift card and walked there 4 times to try and get lunch. Only once did I actually leave with food. The rest of the time I was left to eat cookies for lunch because the service was so slow and I had no time left to go anywhere else. A sit down restaurant would have been faster.

Staff are very knowledgeable and nice! Espresso is always dialed in and it really shows

The food and drinks are always so tasty. My only complaint is that it can be a little loud, but even thats not bad.

Such a vibe. The breakfast sandwiches and all the lil treats are out of this world. Oat PSL was incredible too, thanks xx

Lovely coffee and food. Must try their scones and baked goods.

Authentic cafe in Dartmouth. We discovered it by chance and are simply thrilled. The waitress at the counter gave us wonderful advice. Chai Latte is highly recommended. The atmosphere is wonderful. Lots of young people. There are parking spaces nearby. Parking: There are parking spaces around the corner

I just ordered a bagel and small latte , latte is good but bagel is tastless and hard and stale and not even toasted properly my breakfast is ruined ,and i paid over 10$ for this, this is the first time i tried their food and would be the last time now

From drinks to pastries they are amazing. Banana scones are amazing

Service was fine but not enough to make up for how awful the food is; there were a ton of coffee grinds in my latte and the soup (which was overwhelmingly salt) had a bunch of zucchini which wasnt listed with the rest of the ingredients Dietary restrictions: If you have dietary restrictions you shouldnt eat here, cross contamination city

Unapologetically loud and with the coffee and world-class baking to back it up. In a sea of cafe banality, CGL has the punk pirate energy Dartmouth didn t know it needed.

Their coffee cakes are amazing.

Always delicious, always friendly!

Loved everything about this place! It was perfect for a little lunchtime reading on my trip. The sandwich was good and the coffee was comforting on an otherwise rainy day.

What a gem This place has a great atmosphere and superb coffee! So many things too looks at- and eye spy dream!

Café has been updated. Beautiful seating area

Very good cafe, you can buy their many coffee bean bags, they have so many varieties. Love them so far!

A genuine community space where everyone is safe and welcome. I wish my city had a queer space like this, and I really admire the work theyve put in for our Pals. Also: cute as hell with the nicest staff.

The best café in Dartmouth, maybe even the best in Halifax or at least one of the top five in the city. Coffee is excellent, food is delicious, and they recently expanded so now there is lots of seating. They have vegan and gluten-free options too including a vegan breakfast sandwich and a gluten free chocolate chip cookie (good but not as good as Rambler s). Worth the trip across the harbour any day. Pictured below is the burrata toast

Impeccable coffee.

What a lovely place! Great coffee and food. Love it!

In a sea of coffee shops in the HRM, this one takes first place. Above all is the quality and flavour, but also the accessibility, venue, and staff are very welcoming. I highly recommend if you enjoy coffee for its rich and complex flavours.

As a coffee lover, I really have high standards and Good Luck reaches them. I went there every morning of my visit in Halifax.

Enjoyable atmosphere with delicious coffee and sweets. Would return.

Hiddem gem of a cafe. The espresso was delicious, as were the bagels and locks.

Best coffee in HRM hands down , amazing breakfast sandwich , friendly staff.

Great coffeecake! The staff are great! Worth visiting!

Best egg sandwich ever. OMG. Killed it. Great vibe. Amazing iced tea.

Delicious iced tea and nice lunch selections.

An absolute gem on Portland street! If youre a matcha lover I recommend trying a vanilla matcha latte. The cafe is adorable with lots of seating, however it is often quite busy in the morning so the seating isnt always available. The breakfast sandwich is delicious and nutritious! Parking: There is paid street parking and a paid lot on the same street. Street parking is scarce but the lot always has plenty of spots available.

Been there multiple times and its been disappointing. The baristas are unfortunately slow and inefficient. They take their sweet time even during rush hours. Their breakfast options are lackluster if you dont want pastries. Not a fan of BBQ sauce in breakfast sandwiches lol. The atmosphere and vibe of the place is great though

Best cafe in Dartmouth hands down! The sandwiches and premade foods are incredible and the staff is super friendly. Just wish theyd offer breakfast burritos, but maybe someday!

In Dartmouth from out of town, wish they had a place like this at home! The breakfast sandwich was excellent and so was the coffee. Ill be back for breakfast again before I leave!

Cute café in Dartmouth. Both the food and drinks wete good. Staff is friendly. Really relaxing atmosphere and perfect shelter for rainy days. Would happily visit again!

Great little cafe Dietary restrictions: Very good gluten-free menu!

I had the breakfast sandwich and vanilla latte. Both tasted amazing! Beautiful cafe with a friendly atmosphere. One of my favorites in town.

Always friendly staff, warm welcoming environment and excellent coffee! Cant believe on top of this they have great gluten-free options to choose from.

Great food offerrings. Excellent elevated breakfast sandwich, Granola, and good coffee options.

First time in. Loved the food and outstanding coffee. I had Bagel and Lox. Delicious! Place has a great vibe. Cant wait to go back!

Friendly with the best snacks.

best coffee in halifax, no doubt

Best bacon breakfast sandwich I have ever had! The bacon was incredible and perfectly cooked. The egg was superb, a little moist which I love, sprouts and mayo and bbq sauce (which i normally would be like...weird...but it actually worked really nicely!) Highly recommend! The latte I had was also delicious.

Stopped into this Cafe for the first time when i discovered my other favourite local cafe closed down :( I went with a bacon breakfast sandwich and let me tell you.. i am usually a pick eater and it comes with things i would usually leave aside. however i decided to try it as it was intended and i do NOT regret it. One of the best I ve had here in dartmouth. I also got an iced latte, again, not my usual but it was delicious and creamy. The atmosphere is super welcoming and pleasant all the staff were smiling and it seemed they had a good flow going for how busy they were while I was there ! However, a bit small, it would be awesome if they had the space to expand ! I also noticed they had a Put it on a tab for those who may not be able to afford a meal. A+ to you guys ! will definitely be back in the future !

Im new here what good Luck is slowing because a fan favorite. Come for the conversation stay for the pastries. Not slept the cinnamon buns is they have then

Best coffee in HRM. New seating area is great

Cute shop, friendly staff, great food + drinks

You will consider yourself lucky if you ever walk into this place.. I never write reviews but this place and this coffee and these folks are just best kind. Cortado, breakfast sandwich and playlist immaculate. Vibes on point. Coffee done proper

10/10 for the chicken Caesar wrap!! Super fast service, funky vibe!!

I had a latte with brown sugar syrup and the service was very nice and friendly The vibe is so cozy and beautiful I will rate this cafe as the top 3 in HRM after trying almost all the cafes in the city Food : 5/5

Best vegan breakfast sandwich Ive tasted. The espresso was light and fruity, very nice. Vegetarian options: Delicious vegan food that isnt an afterthought.

Theres only two good places for coffee in HRM, maybe three, but this is one of them.

Everything I order here is a hit. Drinks are beautifully balanced and treats are well executed. Food

Cute cozy cafe. Absolutely amazing baked goods especially the scones . Huge and delicious! Lots of fun artwork, unique branded t shirts and mugs as well as coffee accessories.

Ordered a breakfast sandwich and flat white. Everything was wonderful tasting and great quality. One coffee barista seemed a bit dismissive when asking about the status of my sandwich (to which they forgot to inform the cook) but overall a wonderful cafe.

Hands down the best coffee in the HRM. Amazingly knowledgeable and helpful employees and truly a magnificent cup of coffee. Go. Now. Food

Cappuccino and scone were both delicious

service sucks. I didnt even get a chance to eat here as the girl working at cash just tells me kitchens closed when i drove 30 minutes to try the cafe out. Get friendlier staff.

Best quality of coffee. I m super excited to try their feature bean, too. Eggy ban is amazing. It s a bit small cafe but if you go there in weekdays, you would love their vibes with nice coffee. Food

I just loved the vibe of this sweet little cafe. I had vanilla matcha latte and it was heavenly. I also took the granola bowl which was simple and just right. Made my morning more better

Nice cafe although it s super small. We had to wait 15-20 mns to sit by the window. I believe it s more meant to be a take away shop. The vegan breakfast sandwich was very nice (a tiny bit small) but very tasty. I haven t tried the coffee but it looked very good. Staff is not the friendliest which is rare maybe we were just not lucky that day. Would give it another try for sure.

Food was delicious. Service was fantastic.

That breakfast sandwich slaps, gets me every time!

Really cozy/hipster vibe, americano was

Truly the best breakfast sandwich I ve ever had! The folks working were super friendly.

The best around.

Great spot!! A little small so we weren t able to dine in, hopefully next time! Staff were great

We sat and enjoyed a cappuccino here while in Dartmouth. Good coffee and nice people

This is the best cafe in HRM. They have the best coffee on the bar and their espresso is dialled-in super tight. They sell the best, most interesting coffee beans from all over Canada. They also roast their own coffee and it is head-and-shoulders above any other local roasters. The staff are cool, the jammy buns are deadly, and the breakfast sandwich is so yummy.

Im not much of a coffee person, but visiting family and friends often enjoy stopping in to grab a drink and sample the wide variety of baked goods.

I love this cafe! Hubby and I had a lovely breakfast date. Then we took home some pasta sauce, bagels and Kimchi. I am half Korean and must say that this is the best kimchi that I have had in Nova Scotia!

Most delicious mocha Ive had ever. Friendly staff, happy people inside - a good vibe. They were baking this morning and it smelled heavenly. Friends enjoyed their food and coffee too. Friend 1 had the breakfast sandwich, thick back bacon and fresh sprouts - 2 thumbs up. Friend 2 had fresh bagel with cream cheese fancied up with beetroot - 2 more thumbs up.

It was a very nice cozy place. Staff was friendly. My mocha was not to my taste but still enjoyed the experience. My kids liked their hot chocolate and cinnamon french toast latte.

Nice little place! Friendly staff. My cappucino was one of the best I had!

delicious sandwich, pastry and coffee! will be back :)

Very Pricey but very good

Cozy coffee nook and nice place for coffee break Dietary restrictions: They have Gluten free cookies Food : 5/5 |

Very kind staff, deliciousness desserts and a really fun vibe

It was my first time visiting this cafe. I really liked it. Giving it 4/5 stars.

Cappuccino and Spinach n Artichoke Vegan Sandwich! Was pretty good!

This place is really popular because when I got there at 1 pm all the baked goods aside from the cookies were sold out. The rye cookie was surprisingly amazing. The hint of rye paired with the soft chocolate was too good! The London fog and chai tea was prepared with love

Friendly service, great coffee, and a great selection of local and handmade baked goods. A little bit cramped if youre sitting in. Vegetarian options: Lots of dairy alternatives and veg/vegan baked goods

They have the best drip coffee, if you drink it black, cant be beat. TIBS and Marco Polo have their days but I find its not consistent. Good Luck keeps it consistent and delicious. The different disposable cup lids are great colours. Ive got lime green today. Their food prices are very reasonable, like for the breakfast sandwich.

cute little coffee place. the roast is definitely one of my favorites

Awesome coffee but not much room to sit down.

Very delicious CGL BLT. Must try!! Food

Can t express how much I love this place. Their baked goods are amazing and always changing so I m excited to come every weekend. Love the coffee too. Not a fan of flavoured coffee but they do a great job!!

Really good eggie croisant sandwhich

Incredible pastries and brunch options. Cozy but functional.

My new favorite coffee shop!

Very ambience Vegetarian options: Veggie Parking: Parking

Dietary restrictions: They can make coffees with any available dairy alternative milks. Food

Some of the best coffee in Halifax area (this is across the River in Dartmouth). Only reason I m giving atmosphere 4 stars is because they could rearrange and add more seating. Coffee and food were great.

Best coffee shop in dartmouth, the food is prepared to order, they also have a great selection of grab and go fresh baked goods. The coffee is the most consistent and they actually ask what type of bean you want to choose from their offerings! The ambience is warm and welcoming from the staff to the decor. The staff are very helpful and patient. Fun merch offerings. Reasonable pricing for quality food and service. This place is my partner and I s go-to for our morning coffee runs before heading to work!

Love this spot. Attention to detail always great - a rotating variety of baked goods and great coffee. Come for the jammy buns and dialed-in drip (and copious horse paraphernalia), leave with something for your pantry. Wheelchair accessibility: One level, no barriers to entry (but space is tight inside).

Nice little place with a great atmosphere and friendly staff. The coffee is awesome.

quirky and fun! best flat white i have had in I don t know how long!

A real favorite for this little café and its unique branding in Dartmouth! Special mention for the quality and variety of the products offered (the gluten-free biscuits are delicious), but also for the attention to detail (the oat and hazelnut syrup latte accompanied by a hazelnut praline) and the aesthetics of the place: WOW! Dietary restrictions: Gluten-free pastries available.

Great folks and great coffee. I selected a Berlin roasted coffee bean and it was delicious. I was surprised by the roast date being spot on within my usual 2 week window.

Very cute spot. Offering choices of espresso was very appreciated. I got an iced oat latte so unfortunately (my fault) you couldnt taste the coffee very much. I give it a 4 only because I wished they had minor figures oat milk which is the superior brand.

The breakfast sandwich with bacon is easily the best one in the HRM. They always have latte specials; the cinnamon toast crunch tasted exactly like the cereal but better!

Very nice little coffee shop. The service was nice. We ordered an iced latte and an iced tea. Very good.

Food with nice and refreshing presentation ! Yummy ! Coffee is good too!

My favourite place to grab a coffee in Dartmouth. One of the best flat whites I have tried outside of Australia.

Best cafe in hrm. Exceptional espresso.

Best breakfast sandwich ever!!!! Delicious coffee, impeccable service, fresh and truly original food!!! Well done

Tasty coffee, good service.

Amazing coffee, knowledgeable staff, and wonderful atmosphere. The unique scones are to die for, and if you havent tried their apple chaider, you are totally missing out!

Best. Chicken. Salad. Sandwich. Ever. Period.

Dietary restrictions: Gluten and dairy free options! Food

No need to look for another coffee shop once you find this one. Specialty/single origin coffee made perfectly. Very good flat white. Food is great too. Went back everyday I spent in Dartmouth Food

Recently moved from Dartmouth to the valley and the hardest adjustment is no longer getting my Saturday morning cafe gooduck. Pastries, coffee, food (especially breakfast the sandwich) and vibes are always 10/10. If you live near here count your blessings.

One of the best in the city

Visiting from Melbourne Australia, can recommend the coffee . (And you know what coffee snobs we are)

The cafe is very lovely. The staff seemed friendly enough, however i will never order coffee from here again. my friend and i got 2 pumpkin spice lattes here last year and they tasted like curry! The whole restaurant smelled like it it and our coffee was obviously heavily cross contaminated. it was so horrible that i could gag thinking of the taste of curry flavoured coffee.

Great coffee, creative baked goods, a fantastic menu and a nice vibe (albeit, a little tight and hard to find seating at times). Ive gone out of my way to eat here.

Got the breakfast sandwich with the bacon and it was really tasty!! The bread was perfectly crispy, egg perfectly cooked, and the tomato jam was a really nice touch. Id come here again!

Such an adorable cafe! So happy Tiktok influenced me to come here because the breakfast sandwich was SO good! Also I d really recommend the lavender matcha! Can t help myself when a menu says silly little drinks

Parking: Downtown is limited with parking Kid-friendliness: No space to have stroller or active kids around. Food : 5/5 |

Popped in on our walk this morning for coffee The blueberry bun and London fog scone were fresh and delicious Service could be a whole lot more cheerful though, then we might return Otherwise not.

Good coffee shop with a tasty breakfast sandwich.

First time visit was perfect, love the friendly staff, and the food was amazing. Love the eggy bun and cinnamon toast latte. Also a really nice place to sit and chill, sweet queer friendly space. Will be back!

My favourite cafe! Always amazing and kind service, and the food and coffee are the best of the best - the breakfast sandwich is unbeatable. A must when you are in the area!

Love the vibe in this cafe! Food is great too. Love the coffee, I always get an oat flat white with vanilla and it s always perfect.

Really cute place but a little crowded and not much seating, didnt get food but it looked very good, coffee is good

AMAZING! Best breakfast sandwich I ve ever had, by far. The bacon add on is a must. It s sweet and savoury and just perfect! Thanks to the staff at Cafe Goodluck, I can t wait to come back already!!!

Great coffee, good food and friendly staff

The best cafe Ive been to. The scones are perfect, the coffe is delicious and the breakfast sandwich will give you a new lease on life. The frozen soups are tasty and warm up amazingly well. The service is fast, and the staff are kind, warm and friendly. Im in Halifax for work and came here every day to ensure I got to try 4 different scones. I cannot speak highly enough of this place. If you are a visitor please come by as it will truly be a highlight of your trip here. If you live in the area, consider yourself blessed to be near this gem of a cafe. Ill be counting down the days until I come back!

the best cafe in the hrm!! absolutely love it here and the coffee/baked goods are always on point. 10/10 everytime!

Great upstairs view from the window. Coffee and hot chocolate were not hot enough.

Okay so this place is adorable. We got off to a bit of a rocky start but you know, all relationships have their ups and downs. The good luck Cafe is cute and sweet and kind and the interior decor is like being in your bedroom when you were 12 years old if when you were 12 years old you were a horse kid who was maybe a bit too into local food. The staff are very nice - they are all very cool in that way that you think maybe they wont talk to you but then they do talk to you and then you feel special. So talk to them to order a delicious coffee, or mocha, or a cute hat (I dont know if the hats are delicious Ive never eaten one), pet a toy horse, read a book about Big Ben (the horse, not the clock - who I met once at the Royal winter fair - the horse. Not the clock). try a vegan cookie or a super delicious breakfast sandwich. Its a little bit crowded in there so you will be chronically in the way - dont worry thats not a you thing - youre still welcome. Enjoy your visit. Dietary restrictions: Good about allergies and restrictions. Lots of options.

Absolute favorite cafe in HRM! Great coffee and the most unreal breakfast sandwich you will ever have... And tons of adorable pastries available as well. The atmosphere is great and whimsical and the staff are delightful!

Had the mocha with their in-house made chocolate sauce, and it was fabulous. The blueberry cheese danish with goat cheese was amazing. And the artwork topped it off.

I just got a cappuccino from here and it is perfect. I spent a year in Melbourne and have been trying to find a Capp like they do there for years!! I can honestly say I have only found one that impresses me once or twice in Halifax. This is one of them! Thank you!

Always love coming here. Love the people, coffee, and the treats! Such a local gem.

Such a sweet little cafe. There isnt much seating, but the staff, coffee, food, and atmosphere make up for that tenfold.

One of our go to spots, an integral part of the growing downtown Dartmouth food & beverage scene. Their new in house roasted coffee is fantastic, great variety of coffee making accessories and beans.

out of all the cafes ive been to, i think this is my favourite one :) i live a little far away, but any time i get to go here i feel like my mood and mental health get better.

Always a delicious cup of coffee, and the treats are scrumptious. Fast, friendly service.

Astoundingly good. Please come to Montreal!

Delicious sandwiches!

Best cafe in Dartmouth. The owner Sonny knows his stuff and the whole team of staff are super friendly. Order the eggy bun or the chicken salad sandwich and you wont be disappointed.
