A refreshing new breed of wine bar, Peacock is a relaxed and boisterous hideaway overlooking the city’s picturesque waterfront in the heart of Halifax’s bustling Queen’s Marque district. Serving an ever-evolving list of labels including small-production and hard-to-find bottles as well as an extensive by-the-glass selection, its menu features a thoughtfully curated list of sharing plates and handmade pastas lightly anchored in local seafood and seasonal vegetables.

Chef Chanthy Yen will be travelling from his home in British Columbia to meet Chef Moira Murray here on the East Coast, blending their distinct styles and inspirations for a menu that spans coast to coast.

    This was a wonderful evening out with delicious food and the excitement of seeing the chefs and hearing them describe their dishes. The only down side was the service. A lot of servers delivered our courses promptly which was great but the personalized table service was lacking. We would have ordered more wine given the opportunity and we would have loved if our server had come to see if we wanted a coffee with our final course before bringing the bill. 😞

    Wonderful food! Excellent wine list! Outstanding service! We had a lovely night at a special tasting and will return soon for a regular service. So excited to have found this jewel on the Halifax waterfront.

    Engaging front-of-house staff who make you feel comfortable without being too familiar (a difficult balance!) The food was, of course, very tasty. We had the chef’s menu and it was a fascinating tour of flavours. All in all a very enjoyable dinner

    Overall we had a great time and would come back. The food was innovative, well paired and well executed. Would have loved a formal wine pairing option. The initial service was too lengthy; took over 20 mins to get our first drink. The server seemed quite busy and had many jobs including hostess. After our first drink arrived and we placed the order, food came out quickly and we didn’t have any more delays. The bathrooms could use some attention during service, and the fixtures were flimsy (garbage could be emptied, toilet paper holder fell off the wall). Overall design and atmosphere was good; not too noisy, although I don’t remember any music in particular. Chairs were comfortable, tables are fairly tight together but overall ambiance was nice. What we came for was good food and we got that. Moira has skill! Thank you we will return.

    Our server was knowledgeable and very pleasant. We wanted to share and try different dishes. We order three of the dishes recommended by our server: warm mushroom salad, beef tartare and halibut cheeks and cauliflower. I would order all three again and I loved the contrast of flavours. The beef tartare was excellent it was ideal to share as I would have found it too much to eat on its own. Overall great experience.

    It was lovely and our meal was well paced with great wine suggestions. One fussy point that may not be an issue in other seasons…It is a bit chilly when the door opens and the cold air enters during winter! Lovely spot.

    The food was very tasty and delicately placed on our plates. Although for the exuberant cost, I'm not sure it was that good, the atmosphere was extremely loud and my chair was very uncomfortable for more than 1 hour of sitting. We had wine, along with wine tasting with our dinner, The cost was surprisingly high at the end.. $$$$ I think you can get a better experience for less. Cheers
