Just a little PSA announcement:
After 20 hours of driving from the states to Halifax, Nova Scotia and desperately starving, I went to the Maxwell Plum, in the Quinpool area. Very quaint and the food was excellent and the beer was cold. You can't beat 2 burgers and plate of fries for $5.
But to my surprise Mon-Friday until 5:00pm its $2.50 for your plate of food plus your drink. My bill was around & $8.00 dollars.
So thank you Maxwell Plum pub for a superb plate of food.

Ah...the Plum. Excellent selection of beer on tap. Decent cheap food too. I just wish they'd turn that damn stereo down!
I wouldn't say it's in the Quinpool area though, it's right downtown. If you're still around the area, try Rogue's Roost on Spring Garden, great microbrewery and a fine people watching spot (overlooks the street).
