Engine Room - Truro

The food was delicious and the server was fantastic.

I adore this bar! It's just my type of spot. As soon as I walk through the front door, a big smile spreads across my face. That's all I have to say!

Delicious donair poutine! Large portion for a good price. The waitress was VERY nice. She was working alone, so I understood the little wait times. She definitely has the personality to deal with customers! Atmosphere seemed a little old, but I enjoyed it. Will be back.Kid-friendliness: It’s a pub. There were kids there though.Wheelchair accessibility: Yes

The restaurant prepares their own dressing for the spinach salad.

A old relic in Truro. One of the longest lasting bars in Truro that has been around for at least 40 years that I am aware of.During the day, the bar is a restaurant with decent food served all day and most of the evening. Decent service too.Friday and Saturday nights this place is often busy as a bar.The crowd that goes is aimed at a younger demographic and can be mixed ages time and time again. Typically a younger crowd most of the time.The seating plentiful, open areas to sit and see the dance floor. Easy access to get drinks. Billiards tables and vlts down back out of the way along with the washrooms.Typically house dj music, bands come not so often. You will find tipping the bartender will get you drinks quicker lol.The big table in the middle of the walking area near the bar, I do not know what purpose it serves other than being in the way most times. Would be cool to see it be used for some sort of competition like arm wrestling or a carnival game/ restaurant game where you can win free food or drinks.After hours closes at 2 AM the taxis are in full swing, the pizza joints and McDonald's are busy.An old school bar that I am glad to see hang on and still be around. Good to see decent crowds still go out and have fun. I hope it hangs on for another 20 years. Maybe it will expand and get bigger !Parking: The parking off to the side is generous.Out front by the adjoining strip mall parking spaces.....not so much.
