Good selection of basic fashion fabrics, upholstery, craft and quilting supplies, as well as yarn and notions. Their pattern selection isn't huge, and they're no Mood Fabrics (as featured on "Project Runway" with oodles and oodles of high end fabrics) but they have all the necessary supplies to set up a tricked out sewing room, and also offer classes for sewers of all levels.
Their staff is...

As someone who loves to craft and loves a bargain, Atlantic Fabrics is where it's at. I don't really enjoy driving all the way into 'deep Dartmouth', but the prices are so much better than Fabricville, that I don't mind.
The selection is good; stock could be better organized and kept more tidily. The service is somewhat passive - all of the lovely sales ladies enjoy a good conversation and...

I love this store! The staff are always friendly and willing to help when you're looking for something to fit your needs whether it's hot pink sheer fabric for curtains or a shiny star fabric for that galaxy themed quilt.
The store is large and always has decent prices. It has everything from fabric to yarn to beads. The selection could be a little better for the fashion fabrics while the...

The selection is wonderful, even in the sales and clearance sections. The staff was helpful. It was worth the trip.
I was actually quite blown away by this store the first time I walked in, it's huge, and has a lot to offer, way more than I would have imagined! Obviously fabric and sewing supplies are their mainstay, but they also have large sections of home decor and craft items as well.
Price wise they are very affordable, especially compared to the competition. The staff are always friendly as well, and...

I have always been a fabric-lovin' kinda girl, (crafty too!) and though I don't sew in a serious way, I have been known to break out the pinking shears and glue gun - especially around Halloween and Christmas.
Atlantic Fabrics has just about everything you can imagine when it comes to sewing supplies, and a whole lotta craft stuff too. I like digging through the remnant shelves, perusing all...

Great Yarn at cheaper prices then Michael's. Support local stores and save!
So I went into Atlantic Fabrics as a last attempt for getting what I needed for my Halloween costume and I have to say that I was delightfully surprised by the level of customer service I received there. I was every Fabric Stores worst nightmare - a girl who didn't know how to sew and had no clue what she wanted.
In spite of the fact that the store was very busy and there were other people...

I would rate this store, hands down, as the best fabric store in Halifax and Dartmouth, and the best craft store ever. The only reason I didn't go for all five stars is that its selection in the 'fashion fabric' area is pretty small. There are plenty of denims and lots of suiting, but nothing you can really make a nice dress out of. But I think the place is fantastic when it comes to all other... more
