Narrow Espresso — Restaurant in Halifax

I absolutely love this place and feel that it's one of the most underrated independent coffee shops in the area. I think part of the reason for that is that it's so easy to m issue when walking by.

One thing: there were lots of wasps here when I went...

Service is quick, drinks are to die for and all the baked goods I’ve tried have been tasty. In this warmer months I enjoy sitting outside but this isn’t a place I would ever come to to study as there are only two very small tables inside, and fair warning they have a wasp problem in the summers. I still come here though because I’m in and out so quickly the wasps are not a...
