North End Halifax Region

Where Halifax’s trendy vibes meet chic restaurants and nightlife.

The North End is a trendy area known for its hipster vibes, up and coming restaurant scene, boutique and second hand shops, colourful houses and lively nightlife – it’s a place that piques curiosity.  

This region is also filled with history. During the Halifax Explosion (the largest man-made explosion prior to the development of nuclear weapons), the majority of the north end was destroyed. This brought the development of iconic neighbourhoods such as the Hydrostone, which is now a hip market with shops and restaurants.
