Kristyn Green's Halifax

Kristyn Green·Comedian & Actor & TV Host & Restaurateur8 picksRecently
Kristyn Green is a comedian, actor, TV host, and most recently, the co-founder of Halifax's first no-tipping restaurant, The Bonfire, with her husband Vince Morley. She's a true builder — the kind of person who shows up fully for her city, her community, and her people. If you're not following her yet, you should be.
“It's a city that feels like a neighbourhood — everyone has friends that they made from just talking to someone in a pub, at a show, on the bus. I love that about this place.”
They're the sweetest, most talented siblings — every time I see them, my mouth and heart hurt from smiling so much! Their song "One Trick Pony" gets stuck in my head every day, and I never mind!

Seriously can't recommend this band enough — I can't believe they're local!

Planet Pride

AB literally changed my life — it is the most supportive, inclusive, talented, creative, loving group of people I have ever met. We go ALL OUT for our Pride show.

Festival
It is my husband's favourite drink and he got me on them so hard!! We love Smokehouse — family-run, and they do actually just make the best beer. The Straw Pils are absolutely essential for summer.

(Unless you don't drink alcohol, then I LOVE Cove Kombucha!)

The Bonfire
Okay, I'm not saying The Bonfire just because it's my own!!! But Vince and I talked about making a feel-good, comfy, inclusive restaurant space ever since we got together, and I couldn't be more proud of it and him.

I spend all of my time there. Our Mac and Cheese literally heals me.

Tommy Green Jr
I am proud to know a lot of people in this city — this place is full of the kindest and most creative people! My brother Tommy is an extremely talented musician and entertainer — his song "So Long" gets stuck in my head all the gd time.

I always feel very proud and excited when people know us separately, and then find out we are siblings!! ❤️
