Murphy’s Wharf (6) – Halifax

Murphy’s Cable Wharf is something of an institution on the Halifax Waterfront, with its ocean tours, Theodore the Tugboat and gift shop accompanying the restaurant. The restaurant is located right next to the Dartmouth ferry terminal and features an enclosed patio jutting out into the harbour.
The menu indicated that Murphy’s was voted 2012 Best Seafood Chowder in Nova Scotia. While the chowder was good, we found it wasn’t as thick and flavourful as we like and the seafood was overpowered by the veggies. It also rang in at $14, our most expensive on the trail to date. We gave this bowl a 6/10.
