Located near the Halifax waterfront, this lively little gem is a perfect way to experience a little bit of Ireland far from the Emerald Isle. I was part of a group of five who decided to have Saturday brunch on the sidewalk patio one fine June morning. We were not disappointed with the menu offerings. In fact, it was quite difficult to choose because everything looked so tempting! We all ended up with different dishes but kept a close eye on our plates because everyone seemed to be quite interested in trying a bit of everyone else's selection!
The meal and service were both fantastic and I look forward to returning again to sample one of the heartier meals they offer, perhaps on an evening when there is live entertainment to accompany a pint!

The Old Triangle

The Old Triangle is a place to put on your "A" list if you're looking for one of the best and most authentic Irish pub experiences going. It's a comfortable place with great servers and a full menu that features some of the wonderful local seafood, along with a selection of salads, chicken wings and even a few vegetarian choices. Their slogan of "Food for the body, drink for the spirit, and music for the soul" is aptly played out in their three rooms, plus two streetside terraces.
In addition to outstanding beers and well-prepared pub fare, the front room is frequently the place to catch some excellent, authentic Celtic musicians. It is truly a joy to listen to the fiddles, drums, hammer dulcimers and other traditional instruments being played well by people who are brought up in the wonderful Acadian musical tradition and keep it alive by sharing this gift with visitors, neighbors, family and friends. There is live music just about every day and evening, so call ahead to find out what is on tap, besides the beer. We walked into an eight-piece group on our last visit and it was truly fabulous. (While it would be well worth it, there is never a cover charge.) In short, we put The Old Triangle into the "not to be missed" category.
