Our bistro

Modern French cooking. British sensibility.

HUX is a neighbourhood bar & bistro on Barrington Street in downtown Halifax. French bistro cooking meets the best bits of the British gastropub, done our own way.

We wanted to create the kind of place we’d want as our local. Somewhere welcoming, with delicious food, good drinks and warm, genuine hospitality.

Pop in for a quick beer, settle in for dinner and a bottle of wine with friends, or join us for a date night or something special. We’re here for all of it.

Music matters here too. If you listen closely, you'll hear plenty of late 1980s and 1990s CD compilations. And, yes, there's an Acid House playlist in the washrooms.

No gimmicks. No brand story, we’re just doing our own thing and we hope you’ll join us.

Join the French Revolution!
