About Freehand Hospitality

Rooted in chef-led creativity, our team is passionate about bringing people together with bold flavours, thoughtful ingredients, and warm, welcoming service. We celebrate diverse culinary styles—from upscale Maritime dining to classic French fare—paired with genuine hospitality that leaves a lasting impression. Every dish tells a story, and every experience celebrates connection, community, and a true sense of place in Halifax.

We pride ourselves on using quality, local ingredients to deliver simply prepared dishes that showcase the best of Nova Scotia.

At Salt + Ash, there’s no greater joy than having our guests sink their teeth into a lip-smacking burger, succulent piece of fried chicken, a perfectly charred pepperoni pie or crispy fish and chips made fresh to order.
