What to Order

Vegan Donair

A plant-based take on the classic Halifax donair, featuring a flavorful vegan filling wrapped in a pita, often served with a unique coconut-infused white sauce.

"While we did not quite enjoy pasta, we really loved their Soup and Donair. Their white sauce or dip had a flavour of coconut which was refreshing and a perfect side for the Vegan Donair wrap."

Seafood Chowder with Bread

A rich and creamy chowder packed with fresh seafood, often accompanied by focaccia bread, making for a hearty and authentic East Coast experience.
