We had zero expectations coming to Smokes, but were pleasantly surprised. The fries were on the food side of frozen mediocre fries, plenty of cheese, and a flavorful gravy. Service was detached but professional. Would go again. read more

Had their poutine a while ago very good- as long as you order in person I liked it I've had problems with their online but it was easily fixed! read more

I heard how good poutine is....I am more of a french fry purist...I didnt like my fries wet and soggy. It was interesting to try and glad I did, its what you do in Canada! The fries were good, and curds and gravy were good. Soggy wet fries are not my thing. It was a bit more like carnival food. Definitely try it when you are here or if you like the idea of fries covered in gravy. It was good, just not my thing. read more

Smoke's Poutinerie - Original poutine - Poutineries Near Me - Halifax, Nova Scotia

When in Canada, one simply must get poutine! And so we did. And this did not disappoint. This place had a truly amazing range of different poutine options. We actually found the more elaborate preparations to be unnecessary. Just straight up poutine seems like the way to go. And we enjoyed the heck out of it. Well worth a visit. read more

The service was wonderful.Steak poutine was fabulous. The portion size was wonderful and fed three people. I would highly recommend this place. read more

The service was absolutely terrible. They ignored us for the first few moments, and then, they were quite rude. The food was awful. It is, by far, the worst poutine I've ever had. I got the cheeseburger poutine. The bacon was soggy, and the burger meat was inedible. I had vegetarian gravy rather than regular gravy (as I was told this was gluten free). The gravy tasted awful. I thankfully got it on the side, so I was able to throw it away! Definitely do not recommend!! read more

Went to the hut down on the waterfront. They had a few different variety of poutine. The food came out hot and all the ingredients were super fresh! I loved the peppery gravy and the melty cheese curds. Yum! read more

See all

Of course we had to try a poutine... The place looked like it would make a real good poutine. We ordered a bacon poutine and omg was it packed with bacon and cheese. My partner and I shared it and could not finish it between us. Very good with huge portions. Would be great with a brew :) read more

This is the first time I've had poutine. I know, hard to believe, but when you can't have the cheese curds, and that really just leaves you with fries and gravy, what's the attraction? Add some pig to those fries and gravy, and I'm attracted! I walk by Smoke's on my way to work each morning, well before the kiosks on the waterfront are open. I've been drooling over their menu for awhile now. Finally had a chance to try their wares and was not disappointed. At all. The cute cashier gave me a discount on my order since I was ordering the double pork poutine sans cheese. Plus they have Pop Shoppe pop. I first thought the prices were rather steep for a few fries with a bit of bacon and pulled pork. NOT SO, my friends. My box of goodness? Was stuffed with pig. A thick layer of cooked-to-perfection bacon, followed by a thick layer of succulent, tender pulled pork. Somewhere near the bottom (seriously, I had to excavate to find them) were gravy-drenched, tasty fries. It was unbelievably, unbelievably good. Mike had the triple pork poutine, so he had bites of sausage added to his mountain of food. Neither of us could finish. Not even close. We brought the leftovers home for another day. I can't wait to visit Smoke's again. read more

Pizza corner? Not anymore! It's poutine corner now! We always had willy's, which is still a happening spot in the wee small hours... But smoke's is a personal fave because choice is the name of MY game, and I'm never disappointed in what's being offered and what I actually eat! Now granted this particular visit may have been the first MID DAY, aka not after a night of painting the town red with wine then heading over for a cab snack home. No matter what time of day or what choice I've made, smoke's serves up a unique poutine to satisfy ANY craving you might have! You can add things like pulled pork or jalapeños, make it DELUX, or just go classic with the traditional poutine. For what ever, or who ever, they have something! Not to mention the staff seem to be endlessly entertaining as well as helpful, because sometimes the hardest thing is to decide which masterpiece you will indulge in! The only thing I suggest is being able to lay down after... The food coma I typically induce myself into after eating a major poutine is one of the best parts!! Day off bliss!! It's the little things in life! read more

Smoke's Poutinerie - Bacon Poutine! - Poutineries Near Me - Halifax, Nova Scotia

Good poutine but not the best in Halifax. (In my opinion) The fries are a bit soggy and the sauce is OK. This is just some chain based out of Ontario. The real crown of Haligonian poutine goes to Willy's across the street. I recommend you go there instead. read more

I'm confused about what all the fuss is about this place. Poutine is one of my favorite foods to eat and this place has the most oddest tasting poutine. The gravy taste like sugar, not a gravy i would expect on my poutine. Price was okay. read more

Astonishing amount of bacon in bacon poutine! Gravy a bit unusual - sage maybe? Nice for late lunch.

Tried some Poutine while in Halifax on a cruise. My Canadian friends and family have talked about it for years! I enjoyed it- we had a traditional one. Great junk food treat! read more

Soggy fries and salty gravy... and these were the highlights. Do yourself a favor and save yourself the heartache and heart burn
