Best Party Venue

Gold Winner Pacifico

Silver Winner The Seahorse Tavern

Bronze Winner Reflections Cabaret

Pacifico calls itself Halifax’s party playground, and apparently so do our readers. The Salter Street club could probably win based on its disco ball collection alone, but Student Thursdays, Hot Summer Friday Nights and Saturday Dance Parties—where the bar’s resident DJs like Pineo & Loeb, Geoff Wills, Jeff Price and Chris Swift weave jam-heavy playlists, and drink specials will have you buying for your friends like you’re Oprah—certainly help its cause. Choose from one of five bars, four rooms and dozens of dance partners—or don’t bother choosing and visit 'em all, because variety’s the spice of any good night out.
