    O'Hanlon's

    Sharing the same fine patio with Copper Kettle, O'Hanlon's has a grungy Irish pub vibe. There's an excellent array of Irish and British beers and local microbrews on tap. On weekends there's live music which you'll love if you like offshoots of Modest Mouse. Serves food late.

    Lower Deck

    A first stop for a real Nova Scotian knee-slapping good time. Think pints in frothy glasses, everyone singing, and live music all spilling out over the sidewalks on summer nights. When someone yells 'sociable!' it's time to raise your glass.
