🌊 Halifax’s Coastal Dining Experience – Drift Restaurant Review!
📍 Drift Restaurant Located on the main floor of Muir Hotel, Halifax This Freehand Hospitality establishment offers Atlantic Canadian flavors with breathtaking ocean views, though some dishes shine brighter than others. 🏆 Why It Stands Out ✔ Stunning views: Floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the harbor ✔ Celebrity chef: Anthony Walsh (ex-Canoe Toronto) leads the kitchen ✔ Hotel convenience: Charge meals to your room if staying at Muir 🥗 What We Ordered 🥇 Starters (Highly Recommended!) • Salmon Scone ($16) ★★★★★ – Flaky pastry, smoked salmon, cream cheese = perfect bite • Scotch Eggs ($14) ★★★★☆ – Crispy exterior, runny yolk center, herb mayo 🥩 Mains (Hit or Miss) • Steak & Fries ($38) ★★☆☆☆ – Overcooked beef, dry fries, skip it • Mussels ($28) ★★☆☆☆ – Tiny shellfish, lacked flavor (maybe off-season) 🍷 Drinks • New Zealand White Wine ($14/glass) ★★★★☆ – Crisp & refreshing • Latte ($5) ★★★★☆ – Smooth, good post-meal pick-me-up 💡 Pro Tips ✔ Best for: Hotel guests, special occasions, ocean-view dining ✔ Timing: Lunch on weekdays = quieter experience ✔ Order smart: Stick to starters + drinks, skip underwhelming mains 💰 Damage: ~$70-100 per person #HalifaxEats #WaterfrontDining #SeafoodLovers
