The Brooklyn Warehouse in Halifax

Amazing.food. just go..try the brussel sprouts. one of the best!

One of the best meals we had in Halifax. I had the halibut and my husband had the short rib both were delicious. We also had the carrot cake and crème brûlée and enjoyed both. Creative cocktails and great service. The location was a bit out of the way (we stayed downtown) but was well worth the cost of the Uber!

Great experience! The food was fantastic, the service was fast & friendly and they nailed the atmosphere. The menu also had something for everyone which can be difficult to find! Highly recommend

Food was exceptional. Server didnt seem to be in a good mood

It was a great place to spend a rainy night the halibut and the mussels were delicious. Our server was super friendly and welcoming. Would definitely recommend.

Fantastic burger and very skilled service!

Fabulous meal for 8 in the front room at The Brooklyn Warehouse. Our server was so warm and easy to work with (despite our large group who stayed late). Food was all beautifully prepared with highlights being the chowder, the dragon s breath salad, and the espresso crème brûlée. Highly recommend a visit!

Restaurant was recommended by our Daughter when we came to Halifax for a visit.Went on a Friday night..no Reservation but they squeezed us in and gave us 2 hrs because the table was booked for 8 pm. The staff were awesome.. Atmosphere cozy. .but the food was amazing ! One of the best Dining experiences we have ever had..Perfection!

Excellent food, very nice service. Highly recommended!

A very good place for a good dinner

Delicious food, hubby found the portions a bit small though

A great neighbourhood restaurant. Consistently friendly service and delicious food.

The food was delicious, will definitely go back!

Excellent burger for Burger Bash!!!

Best place in north end Halifax .. actually best place in the whole city!

The Brooklyn Warehouse is a West End staple and at the heart of the food scene in Halifax. The staff are always fantastic at recommending options and pairing, the food is fantastic, and the atmosphere is relaxed and cared for. If you are looking for a great spot to catch up with friends over a drink and appetizers or a fantastic date night, the Brooklyn Warehouse has to be on the top of your list!

Delicious food in a very comfortable atmosphere. Amazing customer service!

I have not been back in three years since they were very rude to me. Poor customer service. I do not recommend this place. ~~~~~~~ I was a semi-regular customer there a number of years ago. I returned again recently to have dinner and drinks a couple times in the last month with a friend. The food is definitely good with thoughtful ingredients, but some of the staff are not pleasant and that really tainted our experience there. In addition, the way the owner handles customer service is disappointing. But they need a re-fresh on how to treat their customers well.

Friendly restaurant with a limited menu but the food is excellent but reservations are necessary.

I was really disappointed on my most recent visit to The Brooklyn Warehouse when, my partner who is from Ireland where tipping isnt a norm, was called out by our server when she made a snide remark about his not leaving a tip. We paid over $175.00 for our meal (we treated our friend for Christmas) and tipping, lets not forget, is NOT mandatory. Only in North America do people tip. Im Japanese Canadian and have lived all over the world and tipping isnt common OR expected in other countries. And to be called out for not doing so in front of a friend was both rude and extremely awkward. What if we had planned to leave a cash tip? What if our friend had wanted to leave the tip? What if my partner mistakenly hit the wrong button because he wasnt wearing his glasses? Our server had NO IDEA what the situation was, so she should have been grateful that we werent jerks who dined and dashed instead of ruining what was supposed to be a night to celebrate a new job, a new baby, and Christmas. If it is the case that the servers wage is too low and she relies on tips to supplement her income, then its not my partners job to work hard at his stressful job in order to pay a servers wages. If it is the case that the restaurant pays well, then maybe be thankful you have a job at a restaurant that pays you a liveable wage and dont embarrass your customers by making rude comments. The fact that obscenely tipping has become a norm is absolutely ridiculous. This dining experience was a fantastic reminder why we rarely go out for dinner or put ourselves in situations in which we feel GUILTED into tipping others to do their job. I wont eat here again, and Ill make sure to share this experience with others. To add insult to injury, my dinner and Americano werent even that good (especially considering how much I paid for them). My advice: dont waste your time or hard-earned money here. Although pricey, The Bicycle Thief and The Black Sheep are both much better dining options as the food is better and the service (as weve experienced it) is more professional.

Cosy yet lively atmosphere. Delicious food. Amazing service. Good prices. The whole experience will leave you feeling happy and warm :)

Came for our 4th wedding anniversary (14 months late). We started with oysters and the smorgasboard. I had the sirloin, and the misses had the duck. Both were absolutely amazing. The sirloin was seared nice and crispy on the outside but cooked to a perfect medium rare on the outside. The duck confit skin literally melted in your mouth. Perfect meal from start to finish... Except maybe the carrot cake. Ive had much better and something I the sauce was actually kind of bitter. 10/10 would go again.

I m trying to be fair because I have loved the food here. It s been years since we went, and today we were excited to go and have their burger. It was terrible. Dry, salty, and burnt. A huge disappointment for our treat lunch. Maybe it was just a bad day for the chef, but was literally not eatable

Brooklyn Warehouse is an awesome neighborhood spot, with a great atmosphere. The service was fantastic. I like the menu, I ordered the fried chicken sandwich today w the kale salad - it was very satisfying. Highly recommend this spot.

Great Restaurant in the North End. Food is tasty. Good menu. The presentation is superb.

A beautiful evening with my niece!

I dove into their bowl of mussels with sausage (or, as i like to call it... Ethan) with the confidence of a Navy Rescue Swimmer. I came up for very few breaths of air. It was delicious and easily among my favorite seafood dishes ive ever had. My fiancé and I were celebrating fresh tattoos, so we were only seeking some celebratory libations when Amanda, our delightful server, persuaded us otherwise. The beer selection was more than your typical choice of 12 competing IPAs, which was a wonderful change of pace (and at least 3 of them tasted pretty darn good... Boxing Rocks Best Bitter, Norths Little Beast and Garrisons Georgia Peach.) To top it off, Amanda suggested the dessert du jour, which was an incredible lemon tart with fresh local rhubarb topping and Chantilly cream. My lady and I were looking for a drink and ended up having an incredible little impromptu supper date. 10/10 would go here again. Tl;dr- great food. Great beer. Great service.

Simple and delicious

Absolutely stunning atmosphere and ambiance. Expertly curated wine list. Extremely well prepared dishes. Knowledgeable and approachable servers. Honestly best restaurant I ve been to in Halifax which is a fiercely competitive market. 10/10 no notes.

Wonderful food and fantastic drinks! Awesome service.

Delicious

Brittney, thank you for the best meal Ive had in Halifax in the two weeks Ive been here. Bar kismet and bicycle theif are good but perhaps over hyped. The steak tartar is the best Ive had in ages - cant wait to make my way through more of the menu.

Wonderful evening, excellent food with great service.

I have been to this restaurant few times and have never been disappointed in either the service or the menu. Both are excellent

Great staff, excellent food. 10/10!

Always fantastic and never disappointed

Staff was rude and refused to spend 20 seconds on the phone to answer a life threatening allergy question. (Was I expecting your call? Were in the middle of dinner service and you need to call back at another time then hung up)

Incredibly disappointed with our service and meal last night. We got the sirloin with duck fat roasties and Yorkshire pudding. The puddings were eggy and at least a day old. An abomination! The duck fat roasties were hardly roasted at all. The steak wasnt rested enough so it was still raw on the inside. The broccoli was alright but incredibly salty. Not one good thing on that plate except the demi glace. So sad because this was our go to spot for date night. I dont know if you got a new chef or if that was an off night but that was not worth the 170.00 we paid for our meal. We wont be back. Also the service was BRUTAL. The server could not figure out what was in the special and she had no interest in being a good host. Bare minimum required to get by.

By far our favorite meal of a week in Halifax. Interesting menu, great execution & friendly service.

The service, food and environment are fantastic. Be sure to try the mushroom toast.

Never disappoints! Have tried most things on menu, would recommend them all. Sirloin is my fav. Homemade Donuts are great to share, the sauce is incredible.

Absolutely stunning! Someone who makes important decisions at this restaurant has their priorities in order. The atmosphere isnt overly fussy or perfect. In fact before we ate I thought it seemed a little dark. But as soon as the food hits your tongue, it all makes sense. My god. Everything was on point, from seasonal selection to the most strangely perfect preparation of each ingredient. Even the Brussel sprouts tasted like a completely new experience to me. Im afraid I am going to wake up and realize this place was just a wild dream that I had and that it doesnt really exist. Bravo.

Went to Brooklyn Warehouse for lunch with a group from work. The food and service were excellent, and the kitchen is attentive regarding allergies. Highly recommend!

Always have good food and a good experience here. My wife loves the haddock entree. She got it the last two times we were here and loved it both times. Steak and duck are both great choices too.

Excellent food. Excellent service.

Have to give it an amazing review. We were a larger group of 8. Our server was fun and attentive. New menu was out last night. Sirloin was cooked perfectly, I like rare. It was like candy. Risotto delish, Halibut cooked perfectly. We were able to bring our own bottle of wine. Id make a reservation. Definitely eat here!

The atmosphere was delightful, and we loved how theyve repurposed this building. The menu had loads of great choices for lunch. The food was very delicious, and really just the right amount for lunch. I gather suppers are a bit fancier. All the servers were lovely, it just took some time to get service (orders taken and meals)... Possibly they were busier than anticipated and so a bit understaffed.

Fantastic service and delicious food. I ve always had a great experience!

This is just great to have in our neighbourhood. Lets keep them alive and well... not that we need to: my only complaint is that they are rarely not full -- even with the large addition added last year. These guys get the full five stars for being a walking-distance restaurant that doesnt serve up platitudes on a plate: clichéd club houses and such. It also wins for changing the menu often, and never missing the mark. I must get a job there as their food tester! Competent and friendly wait staff, and local beer and local ingredients. We live in an eden of local food; how can so many other local restaurants get this so wrong? One drawback, is that their license doesnt allow for you to just go for a beer with friends and neighbours. Next request for the neighbourhood? A decent local pub.

Food and drinks where all wonderful, very slow service but seemed short staffed and where still very attentive! Lovely atmosphere.

Excellent. Great staff, amazing food options, nice cocktails. Ive tried a lot of the menu and so far every option has been spectacular

Love this quirky little place! Great food and staff!

We ve had takeout from here, but tonight we finally dined in. It was great - service, food, everything. Shoutout to the kitchen for sure.

Been many times! Consistent great food and service!

Ive had such a wonderful experience every time I visit the Brooklyn Warehouse. The food, staff and atmosphere are an outstanding combination.

Great service and good food with local beer on tap. Highly recommend the smorgasbord.

Great spot for lunch or dinner. Great service, and dont let the price scare you off - worth every penny.

Really enjoyed the drinks !

Nice atmosphere. Limited but good menu.One of my go to restaurants when in Halifax. Recommend that servers take a more engaging approach with customers and make them feel welcome in the venue.

Great atmosphere great food! The drinks were unusual and delicious. PEI Oysters were fresh. All mains were good and reasonably priced

Exceptional experience. Best charcuterie board my wife and I have ever eaten. Tasty cocktails. Cool atmosphere. 5-star service. Check it out if you re near the North End in Halifax.

Service was quick and cordial. Food was fantastic. Cocktails were delicious. We got the Arctic Char, Duck, Smoked tomato soup and Kale salad, loved everything. The smoked tomato soup was especially note worthy.

A fun place to eat! Very good value. The kale salad was excellent.

Delicious food. Relaxed atmosphere. My partner had the mussels and sirloin and I had the scallops and halibut. All were really enjoyable. Wil definitely be back for more.

The food is so good!! Make a reservation to get a table and dont miss out!

Terrible experience, got a app and two mains took more then two hours, some of the worst service Ive ever had,

Farm to table restaurant. The salad and roasted tomato soup were both exceptional as was the haddock.

Fantastic food in lovely relaxed atmosphere with great staff

I would like to say that I have tried the menu but I get the same delicious burger every time I go. Fries are a knockout. The donuts are cooked fresh, served warm with Dulce de Leche. They are Incredible. I always find room after a delicious meal for the donuts.

One of the best burgers in Halifax and spectacular service but the real reason I go is for the donuts. If you haven t tried them yet you are missing out.

What you see is what you get. Friendly and accommodating staff. So love the foods. Wheelchair and stroller accessible.

We had the kale salad, roasted tomato soup, burger and char, absolutely delish. Especially the tomato soup. Cant wait to go back

Food was delicious, the duck was incredible. Really nice atmosphere as well

This menu is never what I would typically be drawn to, but every time I go I am consistently blown away by the quality of food and experience. The miso oysters are one of the best things I have eaten on this planet and their muscles are extraordinary (the kitchen even went the extra mile and prepared hot butter for us). The bar also takes requests to the next level. 10/10 cannot recommend enough

Just had a delicious brunch (back bacon eggs benedict with hashbrowns and salad). Prices were fantastic for the quality and portion of food we received. Waitress was also very kind. I loved the cozy atmosphere so much we decided we would return for dinner another time before we even received our food. The food then confirmed that as it was absolutely delicious. Ive always heard good things so I was so happy to try, and it really exceeded my expectations.

Excellent food and service!

Nice enough atmosphere, comfortable. Great service. Food delicious, normal sized portions as opposed to the overeating sized ones at some restaurants. Alcohol over priced, in my opinion.

Yet My favorite restaurant in North America. A real destination in Halifax for me. Really appreciate the fact that you guys change your menu regularly. Absolutely love your food. (I am talking about dinner menu. I don t eat brunch here.)

Just had The Brooklyn Burger , perfectly delicious ....well done !

One of the best burger in town! I went there a couple of times and I was never disappointed!

Great friendly staff(thanks Matt) and fantastic food and wine!

Excellent local eatery. Fabulous brunch selection, including items for many dietary requirements. Prices are on the higher end but it is reflected in the quality of the food as well as the presentation and the atmosphere. Service was amazing, friendly, fast. Drinks list was comprehensive and had one harder to find beer on it that I fell in love with, the Tata Brew Guava Heist. In the HRM its only available at one store to buy. So I was super happy! This is a great special occasion spot. Birthdays, anniversaries, etc.

Really excellent chicken sandwhich!! Cute and spacious place

Wednesday evening byob, is a great way to enjoy the atmosphere and food.

Honest good food though the risotto was soso but the rest excellent, service ia very attentive and bring your wine is a great feature

My girlfriend and I went here a few weeks ago on a weeknight. Service and food are among the best in Halifax.

DELICIOUS!!!!!

Excellent food!!

Lovely food, and staff capable of handling any situation. There was, what appeared to be, a medical emergency at another table, they managed it elegantly.

My mom and sister and I ate here last night and were very impressed with the food and service. Would definitely go back.

The service was topnotch here and that was just the start. Brunch was excellent and they made subtle changes to adapt to my wifes dairy sensitivities yet kept the taste. Well seasoned and fresh food. Salads were crisp with my only concern being a slightly overdressed. We liked this place so much we bought a gift certificate to give our daughter who lives in Halifax.

This place had great food! Some of the best beer fries Ive ever had! Would totally come back. The atmosphere was very much pub fare with 2 outdoor patios. However the beer list was as small as this restaurant.

We went here during Halifax Burger week. The food was amazing and the the service too. I highly recommend the Creme Brûlée.

Everytime were there its just better and better! Great food, beyond fab service and a wonderful atmosphere. Love it!

Found this just scrolling through restaurants on Google Maps. Great find. We went twice in a week during a visit to Halifax. Fantastic food. Shared many plates over the two visits. For sure will try again on next visit.

Great service and tasty food. Really good selection of whiskies.

Nice store atmosphere, good service and food

The service is great but the food is even better!! Their menu changes on a weekly basis so you never know what to expect. It s written on a chalk board when you arrive which is super neat. Most of their menu items are locally sourced.

Amazing food.

Good food

Nice spot. Good food. Good service.

The good was amazing. Highly recommend the Dragons Breath salad - add the fried chicken to make a meal out of it!

A good local restaurant.

Loved it

Its very nice!

Fried chicken sandwich... Fabulous!

Good but for the price it should step up its game just a little bit.

Food came out a little slow, but was well worth the wait. Our waitress was lovely and struck the right balance of taking care of our needs but not bothering us

We went to Brooklyn Warehouse last night as a group of 6 people. We went for their Wednesday 1$ corking charge. BUT I cannot tell you how impressed with this restaurant I am. Our waitress was AMAZING, (Im actually heart broken I dont remember her name) She was on the ball, lovely, just over all such an amazing person which made the experience incredible. The food was unbelievably good!! Like this is the next morning and most of us are still thinking/ dreaming of the food we had. So fresh, hot and yummy! Like Im honestly blown away about how amazing this place was. It was our first time there and we will for sure be going back, and it was so incredible that I could not, not saying anything. If you have the chance to support somewhere local during these weird times, I highly recommend Brooklyn Warehouse!

Great service! Food was delicious! A good variety of options on the menu that are perfect portions! Would highly recommend and definitely will be going again! Also the donuts - Yum!

Great food, great staff, love this place

Consistently good. Food and service are reliable and never disappoints.

Menu small... cant get an appetizer unless its a spring mix or oysters. We ordered the full house salad. It was 95% spring mixed greens like out of the bag at the grocery store, a little radish and tiny bit of cheese and pea. Expensive for nothing in it, but the vinaigrette not bad...chicken sandwich very yummy, burger pretty good but no sauce. Fries pretty good. Coffee tasted burnt, even though apparently just brewed... Waited a long time with high hopes to try this place. Not very impressed

Delicious food

Very good meal. Hamburger was delicious and server very friendly.

A taste treat!

Great atmosphere, service, and drinks. Food was good.

Halibut was delicious

Great food and service!

Very expensive for the amount of food you get. I got a $20 mediocre burger that only came with 5 or 6 home frys. My wife got a lamb pasta that was tiny and cold for some residuals price. We eat slow but finished in record time because we were barely served anything. We left and went home and had supper again. Staff were nice though.

Nice place and was conveniently located! Menu was a little limited.

First time in and it wont be the last. I had the Dragons Breath salad which was fantastic. I also had the chorizo mussels which were melt in your mouth tender. The homemade sausage was some of the best Ive ever had. Recommend a port with the salad. You wont be disappointed eating here.

Great bar, very enjoyable food would return

Ive eaten here twice in the last year. Had the spicey, crazy delious fried chicken sandwich both times. Its killer delicious! This is NOT your typical chicken burger, its a serious piece of fried chicken smothered in bbq sauce. They should sell the sauce they use or keep it secret if off the shelf, love it. My daughter had a salad which I though was boring but I finished that to.... beautiful vinaigrette.

Had dinner there with my family while visiting Halifax, wanted a restaurant away from the tourist area. Place was very comfortable and cozy, greeted by a very friendly waitress. We shared the muscles and dragon breath salad for appetizers both were delicious, for our main we had the salmon, gnocchi and the burger. The food was beyond our expectation every bite was delicious.

Very friendly staff, very pleasant place

Ah great alnosphere , quick, really quick food, faster than several fast food restaurants, and was good food.

Excellent service and cool atmosphere. Chicken sandwich was fantastic - probably the best Ive had. Triple fried chips with aioli were excellent as well - soft yet crispy. Good selection of drinks. Some cool Star Wars models on the walls and well placed decorations.

Great menu! Tasty the Brooklyn burger, and professional and friendly staff,

Just ok

Great tuna melt !!! Wonderful spot for lunch

Good service , Food was fresh and the lunch menu was large , great choices ... I had people with me from out of town and they enjoyed the look and feel of the Warehouse ..

Varied and interesting dishes. Menu is always evolving. Cozy atmosphere situated in a part of town where you wouldnt expect a restaurant like this. Great drinks too.

Cozy, huge portions and great atmosphere

I went there with a group of 8 on Friday, the restaurant was cozy, the waitress was very friendly but the food was not what I was expecting. I ended up going with the brisket burger and sadly it was very dry and had little flavour, it desperately needed some kind of sauce on it. The prices were moderate for the size of the portions. They do have some very nice specialty beers on the bar menu. Overall, this place was just ok and I most likely wouldnt be going back any time soon.

Great food consistently. Chill, family atmosphere. Would highly recommend it!

Awesome and fun server, fair wine prices, great. food and a cozy atmosphere. Highly recommend

Found this place by chance on our way home. Truly a treat and joyful experience. The staff are extremely friendly and knowledgeable about their food and history of their establishment. The vibe/atmosphere was amazing. The food was amazing and plentiful. We will definitely need to go back and try their supper menu. Would totally recommend this place to anyone looking for a great meal.

Great service, amazing food

Ive been through here a couple times over the months. Usually always friendly staff and relaxing atmosphere, but the food has always been the same quality each time Ive been - meh. Its not bad by any means, but its not great either. Ive always felt that they charge fairly for what you get, so no complaints there. Perhaps I just end up visiting on off days for the kitchen staff. Would I recommend? No. But would I tell someone not to eat here? Not at all.
