Across the harbour from Halifax, in Dartmouth, you will find Celtic Corner, another Irish style pub with excellent food. It's easy to get to by the ferry, it's right across the street from the ferry terminal/library complex. Many busses stop nearby, traveling from the Dartmouth bus terminal just across from the McDonald bridge. From downtown Halifax, the 61 will take you right there, or you can transfer from a 1 or 10 (Westphal) which are the main two busses that travel from downtown Halifax to Dartmouth.
The Celtic Corner specializes in pub grub and features entertainment with origins from the U.K., Ireland and the east coast of Canada mainly from Thursday to Saturday nights. Fill up on fresh salads, pastas, meat and seafood pies, seafood and lots of great appetisers to share. One of the best items on the menu is the Maple Curry Chicken (yes, really!) and they do a really great weekend brunch as well. There's a main room and another off to one side and a couple of "snugs" in the back. There's a small fireplace near the stage which is great for getting cozy in winter. It can get quite crowded on a Friday or Saturday night, though, so get there early. Appetizer and main will probably cost close to $20.00 with taxes included not including drinks.
