Lunch
Refuel with us and take a breather.
We’re just steps from one of Halifax’s favourite traditions – our noon cannon, fired in tribute to our city’s history as a naval and military stronghold. So every fresh, delicious lunch you host with us starts with a bang.
Our plated lunches are for 25 guests or more, and served with fresh rolls and butter, and fresh brewed Starbucks coffee and tea/herbal tea. Just choose a soup or salad, entrée, and dessert!
