Welcome to the Economy Shoe Shop! ++++++ View our new menu!
In 1995 Victor Syperek and David Henry opened a modest 70 seat licensed café. Envisioning a simple place for friends to meet and share a drink, little did the new entrepreneurs know that their little adventure would turn into their life’s work. After fifteen years the little café has grown to include The Backstage, The Diamond and has become the centre of an Argyle Street revitalization, and the place to go when visiting Halifax.
A fixture on Halifax’s entertainment landscape, the “Shoe” is known as the place where creative ideas are hatched. Ideas that have lead to many successful music, film, advertising and business endeavours that got their start within the walls of this now “world-renowned” establishment.
