Restaurant Review – Brooklyn Warehouse, Windsor St.

My lovely sister  decided to treat my mother and I to a dinner at the Brooklyn warehouse to thank us for our babysitting duties.  Located across from the Halifax Forum, this location has been the home to many restaurants since I moved to Halifax three years ago.  Unlike it’s predecessors, I feel as if Brooklyn Warehouse may have some staying power based on the amount of buzz I’ve heard from friends from several different social groups.

The atmosphere is great, and the wait staff were fantastic.  The three of us went there with a taste for a great burger, and a great burger is what we had!  A nice, thick, juicy buger on a foccacia bread with bacon, applewood cheddar, onion and tomato was presented along with homemade french fries and red pepper mayo.  I put a little mayo on my burger, and used the rest to dip my fries in – delish!  It was one of those burgers you have to hold with both hands, and prepare for dripping juices over your plate.

This burger is currently in the running for Halifax’s best in the Coast Reader’s Survey, as was demonstrated by the flag in our burger telling us to vote.  I don’t know whether or not it is the best in Halifax, but we left there wanting to vote because of the excellent wait staff.  They were fun, energetic, and made us feel like a vote for their burger would be better than a $100 tip (although I doubt that is actually the case)!

Brooklyn Warehouse is definitely a spot I’d visit again and I hope my prediction for their longevity comes true!
