About The Hen and the Hog

The Hen and The Hog is the creation of Halifax native Glenn Patterson Wilson. Patterson, as she is known in her hometown, moved back to help revitalize Halifax after a 30-year career designing hotels around the world. She wanted to help save the town's historic buildings and bring attention to the town's important history regarding the birth or our nation.

Having lived in England for several years, she felt the need for a community gathering place much like the pubs in every community in England. She worked to come up with a name that reflected a friendly pub-like atmosphere that also represented our area. This was the beginning of our farm-to-table restaurant known as The Hen & The Hog. We hope you love it, and we hope you love Halifax, the birthplace of American Independence!
