Anyone looking for a national-level outdoor dining experience should check out Dartmouth and Halifax this summer, according to a new list.
OpenTable, a restaurant booking site, has compiled a list of the 100 best outdoor dining places in Canada for the summer, and three Nova Scotia spots made the cut.
'Each year, OpenTable looks at diner reviews and metrics to determine the perfect outdoor restaurants for summer across the country,' the website reads.
The highlighted restaurants are Drift, Salt and Ash, and Mic Mac Bar and Grill.
Drift, located at Lower Water Street in Halifax, opened in 2021 and focuses on East Coast ingredients.
Salt and Ash, also found on Lower Water Street, launched in 2023 and offers 'familiar coastal fare and live-fire cooking,' according to its website.
The Mic Mac Bar and Grill, positioned on Waverley Road in Dartmouth, has been in the community since 1963 and is well known for its homecooked meals.

Art on the Street returns to downtown Guelph for 23rd year with new mural festival
Nearly a hundred artists lined Quebec Street in downtown Guelph for Art of the Street. July 16, 2016 Downtown Guelph's signature open-air art fair returns this weekend, bringing with it a day full of creativity, community and colour — and a brand-new mural festival. Art on the Street, now in its 23rd year, takes over Quebec Street on Saturday, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. The event will feature a mix of ceramics, textiles, paintings, photography, jewelry and more — all presented directly by the artists. 'Art on the Street is the heartbeat of summer in downtown Guelph,' said Sam Jewell, event co-organizer, in a media release. 'It's more than just a celebration of visual art — it's a celebration of the people who create it, and the community that supports them.' This year's featured poster artist is Heejung Shin, whose work will appear in promotional materials throughout the city. New for 2025 is the launch of the Guelph Mural Festival, running concurrently from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Five muralists will create large-scale artworks live on-site in the parking lot between RBC and The Bookshelf. Once completed, the murals will be installed throughout downtown Guelph. The day also includes a range of family-friendly activities. The Children's Art Factory will host a Mini Makers Market at Simply Wonderful Toys, where young creators can sell their handmade goods in lemonade-stand-style booths. The Guelph Public Library will run outdoor art activities and offer sign-ups for its Summer Reading Club from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Over in St. George's Square, Play with Clay will lead hands-on pottery activities. The Suzuki String School of Guelph will be on-site with their popular musical 'petting zoo' for kids. Art on the Street is co-presented by the Downtown Guelph Business Association and has grown into Guelph's largest outdoor art exhibition and sale since it began in 2003.
