The Commune - Truro, Nova Scotia

We recently attended a surprise 40th Bday Party here! About 30 people, lots of room yet it didn’t feel like there was empty spaces (like big halls or other big rental spaces)
The service was great, never a wait for a drink! The drinks and appetizers served were delicious and filling and the friendly, timely service made all the difference.
Would recommend this space for any small gathering. Even baby and Bridal showers! There weren’t any decorations for the event we attended but if you wanted to, this space could be whatever you choose it to look like. Thanks again!

The #1 place to go in Truro if you love to dance, eat awesome food, throw a private party, hear soul, funk, house, edm, hip hop, comedy, live upcoming artists, and top shelf DJs.

The Commune is an awesome restaurant! Whether you're a vegetarian, gluten-free/dairy-free, or an old school meat and potatoes person, you're sure to find something you'll love. The Chef is easily the best in Pictou County, probably all of Northern NS (and beyond). Their staff are friendly, fun, and have lots of suggestions on their menu favourites. I highly recommend the Commune!!! The Atlantic Benny and Tuna Tostada are the most delicious brunch items. You can't go wrong with any of the tacos, or the tapas! Oh ya they also have tons of fun entertainment in the evenings, live music, trivia and more, or you can sit back and get some work done while enjoying a Leafs or Raptors game at the bar.

The Commune is hands down my favourite place to eat. I have several dietary restrictions (dairy-free, gluten-free) and I am still presented with multiple options to choose from. All of which are delicious.
Their menu set-up is amazing and allows for you to try multiple mini main courses for such a reasonable price (under the ‘Tapas’ section). Essentially it’s a bunch of fancy appetizers that are packed with everything you’d want in a main. This is such a great idea and I know I am not doing it justice in my description.
However, if breaking tradition scares you, fear not. They do also offer an eclectic mix of mains with fan favourites such as fish and chips. My personal favourite is their Piri Piri Chicken.
Whether it’s brunch, dinner, or simply craving a cocktail there is no better place to go.

Here are some photos i managed to take … most of the time I’m too excited to capture the beauty of the food and dig in right away.

Great place, food is fantastic, atmosphere is awesome, and the service is above and beyond. Everyone there is very personable and welcoming. Definitely recommend.
A side note, they try to provide entertainment every Friday and Saturday evening around 9pm, if you're into that, very fun, if not you will enjoy this establishment up to said time!
Check it out, tell your friends!

I've only ever been there during the Robbie G concert, and so far, I like the place.

Gonna have to try the food there one of these days.

Neat place to grab a bite. I recommend the sweet potato bowl if you don’t eat meat. There were a variety of things in it and the flavours were really good. I ordered the fresh rolls for an appetizer. It was good, but for the price I felt it was a bit much for just two.
My husband ordered the Karaage chicken. It was not what he was expecting. It’s small pieces of chicken that are fried in the seasoned batter. He found it dry and a bit tough to eat.
The atmosphere is nice and the service was great.

Amazing food and entertainment. Wonderful staff, great live music, and the best menu in New Glasgow. Try the wet lemon pepper wings.
