The restaurant located in the Lord Nelson Hotel offers a lovely heritage decor and good lighting. While some visitors enjoyed their hot or cold drinks, others were disappointed with the food quality and service. The breakfast buffet received mixed reviews, with some finding it subpar for the price. However, those who had the Arms breakfast and Belgian waffles were pleased. The outdoor patio overlooking the Public Gardens was a highlight, with good service and typical pub-style food. Despite the mixed feedback, the ambiance and dining experience, along with attentive service, were praised by some customers.

This place in Halifax is definitely the best hidden gem. The food is incredible and they have a wide selection of local craft beers on tap.

Food and service were fantastic. The butter chicken was delicious. My husband loved the black Angus short rib. We’ll definitely return.

The Arms was one of the last places we visited for brunch during our trip to Halifax, and it didn’t disappoint. Located right inside The Lord Nelson Hotel (where we stayed , the ambience strikes a nice balance between English elegance and a cozy pub. The Seafood Chowder was rich yet light, letting the freshness of the seafood really shine. I had the English Style Fish and Chips, and it was delicious! The fries were soft inside with a crispy crunch on the outside, while the cod was nicely battered and fried—crispy but not heavy at all. Everything was fresh, well balanced, and seasoned just right. Our server, Ethan (if I remember correctly! , was calm, professional, and friendly. They were quick and attentive when taking our orders, which made the entire experience even more enjoyable. If you’re looking for a brunch spot with great food and warm service in Halifax, The Arms is definitely worth a visit : I’m hoping to grab dinner here next time we visit!

We ate breakfast at the Arms while staying at the Lord Nelson hotel. The breakfast might have been my favourite meal of the trip. At the end of the day we enjoyed drinks at the bar. My only gripe was the absence of substantial ice cubes in my Old Fashioned, using regular ice instead, which melted quickly and watered it down a little.
