Great atmosphere in a great neighbourhood with great live music. This kind of typified what a Halifax pub was to me before I arrived. I would definitely recommend checking this joint out if you are in Halifax especially if your a twenty or thirty something! More

We stopped for dinner last night. The cream ale was excellent. The fish and chips not so much. The batter was too heavy and not fully cooked in some spots. One piece of fish was good, the other too fishy. The pirogi appetizer was not what I expected and just ok. But we hung out and drank more beer and... More

Just popped in for a quick drink and stayed a little longer. The barman, Scottie, was very friendly and told us loads of history about Halifax. Good selection of flavoursome beers available at a good price More

I have been to this bar about a dozen or so times on very busy evenings and slow ones. All but 2 of those we had terrible service...over 2 hours to get a waiter to serve us and we were one of 10 customers there. After the last time, I will neither go there or recommend this place to anyone... More

My son had thier stout and I tried their bitter ale, both were great. The food was very reasonably priced pub style food and very tasty. Be prepared to have slower service. I found... More

I visited the Split Crow in 1995 and then again in 2005. It hasn't changed at all (this is a very good thing). There's an amazing ambiance for those who just want to have a fun night out. I remember singing along to a Celtic band in 1995 (can't remember the name), and but by the end of the night... More

Very fun pub, most of the bands here will blow you out of the water, just make sure you get there early enough to hear them (arrive around 9-9:30). Guiness on draught, too. More
