Food:
The scent of garlic, wafting from the kitchen, is one clue that the pizzas here, like the Milton Tavern's pies, are really quite good. Other items are also popular, including some good sandwiches, salads, and other pub fare.

Atmosphere:
Excellent conversion of former fire-station house into a fine pub. Nicely done interior, spacious without being cavernous, and the location makes this a very nice neighbourhood kind of place. The bar is sort of hidden away in the back, although easy enough to find, and well worth it, too, for the great selection and friendly service. The success of the E9, including its conversion to a brewpub, has resulted in the opening of an affiliated brewpub in Puyallup, the Powerhouse, also worth a visit.

Smoking Policy:
Allowed only in on the front patio; otherwise, pub is non-smoking.

Happy Hour, Specials:
Noted on whiteboard at the entryway, including food items.

Special Events:
As noted on flyers, and as posted.

Parking Situation:
Three parking lots are available, one on either side of the building, plus another one situated across the street, designated by a sign for patrons of the E9. On-street parking is also plentiful.

I can see why you love # 9. Excellent.

Wow, Loddy, you found our restaurant/pub....we have not been there in a while, but perhaps soon enough we will be going there again...BigDom always likes to sit in the back, near the bar...LOL....

Another place we enjoying going to is Rock Bottom restaurant/pub, when we visit the son up in Seattle...they have a larger menu than Engine House, and are a little more upscale, and have absolutely delicious food and beer...

What we like about both places, is the ability to take our 'growler' in and take home a fine growler of freshly brewed beer...
