2110 Sparrow Dr, Nisku, AB T9E 8A2, Canada
When you're a truck stop as big as we are, you have to cater to everyone. Our menu offers "Trucker-Size" portions so big, we guarantee you won't leave hungry. For those late night customers we offer home cooked meals with all day breakfast. Our pub & games room featuring 30 VLTs, 5 min keno, Lotto 649 & Lotto Max. The style of the roadhouse brings you back to days gone by with one of the largest collections of trucking, oilfield, farming, and motor sports racing memorabilia you will ever see. Our customers spend hours checking out our collection.
My hockey team and coaches had three meals at Blackjacks Roadhouse and it was an exceptional dining experience! I made reservations for 20 in an indoor patio and it was perfect. The food was reasonably priced and the portions were huge! My entire team loved the selection and the quality was superb. Our servers were Dorothy, Crystal and the General Manger Loydette. We felt like we were home. The place was clean and bustling as well as an array of pictures / items that caught your eyes from vintage gas pumps, parts of car etc... it was like a museum of the past! I highly recommend going there for a quick bite or for a family dining experience, you will not be disappointed. I totally recommend this stop for any type of team dinner as well!
Met my brother for early breakfast. He’d been raving about this place. He wasn’t wrong, big portions, great tasting, and our waitress was excellent. I’ll be back with the whole family in tow. Highly recommend.
Very special place! Good food! Staff friendly! Clean and safe
Food was well presented, freshly made and delicious. Portion was generous - enjoyed it the next day also! Service was excellent. Server was patient, helpful , personable and had a great sense of humor. Handled all our personal requests well and with a smile! Atmosphere was positive, friendly, just the right volume and choice of background music, lots of ambient conversation but none of it intrusive or too loud.
Super breakfast, huge portion, absolutely lovely service.
Came here for dinner as we are staying by the airport and this was close by. There was plenty of parking. The place has a patio, a lounge, and restaurant side. The decor was very interesting inside - truck stop meets hunting lodge meets car show meets old gas station. The atmosphere and vibe is very cool. The food was great. My son ordered the kids spaghetti and he wolfed it down fast. My daughter had the brisket sandwich which had good flavour. My wife had the Jack's burger and it was quite large and tasty. I had the Reuben and a clam chowder. Really great sandwich and the chowder had lots of clams in int. We really enjoyed looking around to see all the different decorations around the inside. Our server was friendly and attentive. Will definitely be back if we come through again.
This place is so amazing, my GF wings were just so perfect, and our omelettes were very delicious too! Atmosphere was very cool, lots of neon lights. Service was not too good, our waitress looked as if she hated her job. There is a side for adults too, (a lounge). Didn’t go in today. Kid friendly, and definitely a recommend!!
Blackjacks consistently delivers good food and good service. Had the Caesar salad with grilled chicken and it was tasty and large. Small complaint - the cook used a dull knife (or the wrong edge) to slice the chicken - it looked like it was hacked apart with a dull axe - but it was tasty. Friend had a cheese omelette with rye toast - said it was really good. I would order it for the toast alone! Service was prompt and friendly - great place for lunch, dinner, or wings and beer in the lounge.
I was at a corporate party, I liked everything. Very friendly staff.
It is a fun venue
Food was ok not the worst not the best either. We were staying there in our rv when we were moved to stall 1 from 26 I parked my rv off Center of the next stall and had a small utility trailer plus my pick up truck. When your supposed to have the length of a tractor trailer for parking and your shoved down to the corner where there wasn t enough room to park in a straight line because of picnic tables piled down there I had my small trailer beside my camper in a kinda breeze way not being used. Management seemed to take it soon them to bombard my wife about it and not once said anything to me about the issue. Kinda cowardly if you ask me. If I could have parked everything single file like the first stall I was in I would have but alas I couldn t. Then after being there couple weeks paying for a few nights here and there at a time we were accused of not paying for a few nights and we kept all receipts to prove which we did. Then we were told if we were staying longer we could no longer pay for shorter duration times we had to pay for the whole month. Like wow that s hospitality at its finest. My wife found Clarence the owner to be arrogant and very smug about himself and I find him to be cowardly due to he wouldn t approach me any time and he s seen me there. So my take I ll never return to blackjacks due to the dishonest and the way my wife was treated and spoke to I would pay triple elsewhere even if I was offered free stay at blackjacks. We left there feeling like we were second rate people never again
Very good place to go, good food and drink. Service was excellent.
Was a nice place to sit and have a meal. Food was pretty good. Enjoyed it. Will be returning again.
The food was very tasty and the servers were very good. I would recommend.
The girls are amazing there. Food is big and delicious
Amazing staff. Made sure to check if we needed anything on a regular basis. Very comfortable atmosphere. Parking: The food we had was pulled brisket. Very yummy and definitely plenty to eat.
This is the best and my favorite place!
Parking: Pay for over night Food
Great food
The best place for a good meal and shower. Extremely trucker friendly. Staff is amazing as well as the food and service.
Awesome food Awesome staff
Great bar, GREAT interior!
Best boneless dry ribs.
Always a great place to eat
$10.00 to park in a dirt lot.
Always go in with a smile and walk out with a smile. Wonderful place to stop by on route past nisku Kid-friendliness: On the restaurant side yes. Lounge side no Wheelchair accessibility: Wheel in, you might be crawling out by the end of the night
I went here for a business lunch about 6 weeks ago and have been back twice more with my wife and son for lunch. The atmosphere is excellent. Service is top notch. The food is excellent. It reminds me of roadhouse/ truckstops that I have been to in the past. Love the nostalgia!
First time here big place with ample seating,a mix of young and old here,clean on the inside service was promptly and friendly ,food was quick and and tasty pop refills were asked and smiles all around with lit conversations from the staff made you feel at home!
Really cool pit stop. Kennedy and Sierra were amazing servers.
Dirty, menu has shrunk.not what it once was, go somewhere else.
Good place to hang to kill time while waiting for loved ones at airport arrival. Great atmosphere
Good food, good service, fair price
Food is great, large portions, and always cooked right. Served is good, courteous, and on the ball. Showers are great for truckers or anyone who needs it. Cleaned after every use, towels are provided, and a toilet in each stall as well. Have to pay for parking and the showers, but your truck or rv is safe, and it s a fair price considering it s a huge parking lot, and high quality showers.
Overall, it was a great experience. Food portions were above average . Id say cleanliness is at a 3. The signs that were up high kept you looking away from the floor or the tables. But staff were friendly and the food was good.
Super cool vibe. A mix of vintage and new age. The service was great, and the portions were large for a reasonable price. There seems to be a lot of car and bike events that take place at this establishment. Ill be sure to make my way back.
Best breakfast. Amazing pancakes. Lovely staff.
When you see a lot of big trucks parked at a truck stop, its either because the food is great, or more often, just because they fit. In this case, its both. Great breakfasts and great service. Parking: Massive parking area for highway trucks, and biker friendly. Wheelchair accessibility: No stairs and flat area. Lots of tables where you can move a chair.
Awesome place, cant say enough good things about it. Always look forward to going there.
Very good
Great atmosphere and good food
Service was just ok. Nothing special. Food was ok. Average. Over hyped. But ok all in all.
Good place to stop for meals and drinks. Food is always good.
First time at Blackjacks Roadhouse... awesome food, service and Atmosphere, and wonderful pictures and artifacts everywhere!
Great food and atmosphere...only road house I know of...
All around great place for a stop after a long day on the road. Huge portions, good drinks! The service was quick and friendly. Showers were very spacious and clean The security guard for the parking was very friendly as well. 10/10 recommend this place to any trucker or anyone needing a place to park, eat and shower for the night!
Stopped in on our way home from Edmonton. Was a great experience. The food was great. The service was awesome! Will absolutely stop in again on our next road trip.
Food is decent , price is ok , beer is cold , limited draft though , lots of slots sometimes Im lucky sometimes Im not ... Atmosphere most excellent ... Stuff are awesome ... Parking: Free parking for 4 wheelers and motorcycles big trucks free if just staying for a couple hrs overnight starts at $10 until your oversize then it goes up..
Good food, great atmosphere. Many interesting events. The outside band / stage is awesome. I recommend wandering around and checking out the memorabilia.
Amazing, amazing, amazing! I had the roadhouse benny and also the western omelette - both with hollandaise. So very good! Great portions AMAZING hollandaise. Food
If I could rate this place 1/2 star I would started with a hair wrapped around the straw on the chocolate milk then brought meals out for 4 people at a table of 6 then 25 mins later they brought out my daughters and mine which was the wrong order left pissed off would never give that place a cent of my money again not to mention the place is a mess not sanitary at all
It as good.. It was very busy..food came out relatively fast...and very harty meals...I took some home. Food
Beautiful atmosphere, service was great and food was delicious! Thank you!!
Great place to eat
Excellent food. Great staff.
Good food and great service. Friendly staff

There is something to see everywhere you look. Great place
Pretty rad place! So much to look at while enjoying great food
Great food, great friendly service
I was there lastnight and ordered a smashburger. It was one of the best burgers I ve ever eaten!!
Absolutely amazing! Dalton would be proud!
Very huge helpings of any choice on the menu. Quality cooking My last order here was Veal Cutlets with steamed vegetables and mashed potatoes with gravy.
Manon was a wonderful server. Also helped me this morning with an issue with someone blowing dirt all over my brand new truck. She escalated the situation and brought it to Clarence s attention, who I was told is the owner. He handled the situation appropriately. I wasn t happy when you spend a lot of money at this location then there s someone blowing dirt all over your truck who refused to blow it off and had one of the worst attitudes I ve ever came across. Shame she wore an east coast lifestyle hoodie, because that is never how an east coaster acts. Wish I knew the company they were with so I could make sure she learned to treat people with respect. Thank you for making her blow the truck off and as well for the great service. Handled very professionally. Will return for sure. Parking: Tons of room to park a truck in here. Sure it costs money, but there s never lack of an kind of room
The bar is almost as big as A mall Lots to look at great atmosphere Food
Smash burger was awesome and the waitress was great !
Terrible service. Short staffed. Expensive for what you get. Steak sandwich was terrible. Never even got water
Fantastic place to meet up. Loved bike night
Good food
Great food, big portions and friendly staff.
This has become our go to restaurant. Weve yet to have fail. The portions are substantial, you leave feeling full. Service has been excellent everytime. We recommend it often.
very cool place for bike night!!!!
We have come here a few times and every time the dishes our food were served on were dirty, my glass had another persons lipstick marks on them and the plates we received had grease all over it and was covered in a grainy texture. The food was not good either I got the chicken balls and they tasted like absolutely nothing other than sauce and the sauce was tar like super thick and sticky. We didn t get forks and knives and had to ask for them after our food got there. The menu was very small there was very limited options. I don t recommend eating there.
Was here for a fundraiser and as always it never fails to deliver. Good live bands, unbelievably good service and a good time. The food is typical bar food but it is very good. All in all a great place to go
Breakfast was really good,my first time there. Stopped before heading to airport. I would recommend. Food
Amazing food , lots of truck parking. Probably the best food in nisku . Kid-friendliness: Kids love all the antiques and the old race car on the roof Food : 4/5 |
Fun, friendly staff. Shots were water down. Parking: Lots of it Food : 5/5 |
Great staff, fantastic service. The food was very good and lots of it. Food
very friendly place without pretensions or the prices are affordable..
Really good food and tons of cool stuff to look at
Awesome food and great prices for what you get. Have never had a bad meal here. Experience the food here
Had a party of 15 for lunch, staff was very accommodating, came around multiple times asking for refills, food was very good, lots of selection, came out hot and fresh for everyone, Really good experience, will be back next time I m around nisku
Awesome food
Friendly stuff,Verry Good Food,Lovely place.This is the place for truckers huge parking lot,showers....
Outstanding
Good food, good friendly service, and a big open concept inside that gives the indoor outdoor feeling. Check it out! Parking: Blackjacks Roadhouse holds special events, but other than that, lots of parking for all types, motorcycles to big trucks!
It s a fun truckstop place with music and car shows on occasion, friendly servers, great pub food, and a neat place. Always a favourite stop Dietary restrictions: Gluten free
Love the place
Food is excellent, service with more than a smile, overall you cant go wrong eating here!
Dill pickle wings are phenomenal
A neat road stop with what I thought would be good food as lots of truckers and bikers were parked out front. The service was slow and non existent once the food was delivered. We had to find someone to ask for a refill of our drinks, and they were needed to wash down the food. The soup was lukewarm and did not taste good, dill pickle soup, skip it in my opinion. The beef dip was more like 3 thick slabs of dry roast beef and a soggy bun. I was not able to eat most of it as it was too chewy and dry. If I had been able to find a waitress I would have returned it but chose to just pay the bill and leave. Skip this place if you are in Leduc, there are lots of other diners to choose from. Wish it had been better as I really wanted to like it. The decore of oilfield pictures and hard hats was interesting to look at at least. Parking: Lots of parking
Great place for lunch
Great place to meet up with friends. Tuesday is bike night a place to show and be seen. Parking: On bike night and Classic Car night, there is cordoned off parking for the bikes and cars.
Bad service. The bartender didnt care that I was sitting there waiting on her. When I said I didnt want food she said thank god. Didnt ask if I wanted another drink. She was more concerned with refilling fridges and doing her cash out. If you are in the area its ok. I wouldnt recommend going out of your way to get bad service and pay 25 bucks for a sandwich.
My wife took me here for wing night tonight, the atmosphere is pleasant, very roadside grill feel, its spacious inside with some minor things that may need fixing up. The food though, was pretty good, we had the dill pickle wings and smash burger, cooked well and tasted great. The service here is the stand-out, our server Michelle was new but very friendly, fun to talk to and was on top everything, refills, extra plate, etc. Highly recommend this place, I even bought a bottle of their home sauce they use on their wings, fun!
Went in this morning for breakfast and it was excellent, probably the best breakfast I ve had at a restaurant in a very long time. The portions were big, very good value for your money. I ll only go here from now on, I highly recommend going here you won t be disappointed, it was excellent. Friendly atmosphere. Great job to the staff the food was very good.
Great time, too bad oilers lost
This place blew us away. It was a quick stop for lunch before our flight ended up being a favourite! When we first saw the menu we thought the prices were a touch high... especially for the appetizers, however; once we received our food we realized the prices we very good. All five of us enjoyed our meals very much!
The B.L.T. On sourdough is so perfect Always great food Food : 5/5
Great food, big portions, reasonable prices, quick service, casual dining. Perfect for travelers or regulars. Kid-friendliness: Lots of kids menu options
Food and service was awesome. Definitely would recommend this place.
Great food great service. Although, they took away the Hangover Burger that was my favorite. Id be lying if I said i wasnt disappointed but still love this place. On to new, bigger better burgers. The new menu is great too lol. I just loved my big ol Hangover Burger.
The food has gotten more expensive, but the quality has gotten worse.
Great service great people
Vexcellent service good food.
Food was hot and fresh, large portions, and great service. We went for breakfast/lunch, it was busy but we still had an attentive waitress, very friendly and smiling. I was impressed with the food, sure beats a few of the other places weve been to lately.
Great food, very friendly staff, nice atmosphere and no rip-off. Nice place to hang out. Bike night on Tuesdays, don t bother to go there if you don t own an Indian or Harley, It s all about this bikes, nobody is even talking to you if you don t have one of this heavy iron on wheels.
Huge portions with half options, biker atmosphere and friendly staff
Awesome everything. We come here after racing and lapping days at the track across the highway. Delicious food, quick and friendly service, good prices on everything. Weve been here probably 30+ times and its always a good experience.
Burger was great! Parking: Reserved parking for bikers! Food : 5/5 |
Huge portions, great vibe, a mix between a blues spot and a biker bar, great spot for a weekend lunch or a quick stop for a brew, you will not be disappointed!
You HAVE to eat here!! if you havent its amazing. HUGE portions. This picture is my french toast . Made with real egg batter it was light and fluffy and crispy absolutely delicious! ive eaten here before and always happy. do not confuse this place with the waay more expense competition called lumber jacks BLACK JACKS is the real deal. Keep on being deadly! We will be back ! A big thank you to natalie our server !
Its a great place but prices are getting a little high I believe for breakfast.
First time here I ordered the jacks burger and for $21.95 it sucked ! Cold when I got it the bun was the only thing that was good . My fries yep cold too , although they tasted ok not impressed
Sunday Classic Car Meet & Greet! Its always great to be at Blackjacks! It was great to see the many vehicles and talk to the owners.... and have a bite to eat. Its all good!
Tuesday bike nights are always fun- hundreds of motorcycle enthusiasts and lots of customized bikes to look at. They often have live music and entertainment.
Great food good price. Bike nights on Tuesdays is amazing
Great place to eat. Large portions and menu variety. Interesting surroundings inside, and theres always something going on there.
A very Unique establishment with amazing food and service. Thank you for a wonderful experience!!! Parking: They cater to Truckers with open arms. Fantastic for heavy haul and wide/over-dimensional loads. Thank you for being truck friendly!!!
Great breakfast
The service is always good. The food is good and the atmosphere is great. You have to go there to understand. Parking: A little out of the way Kid-friendliness: No really l kid friendly. Wheelchair accessibility: Yes
Food was very good I had the ginger beef.
Watched the hockey game on the projector big screen. Food was amazing as always and well priced.
Friendly place,
Great old school tavern/restaurant! Were in the 70s. Many semi trailer parking. Cheap:10$ per night. 10 minutes from downtown Edmonton.
I was skeptical on it being my first time and all... I was shy. Nervous. Sweaty... though that could have been the trucks lack of a/c Having been here now, the 10 bucks to pay for 24 hours of parking and the 10 bucks for a shower were more than worth it!! Tons of space, and no searching or fighting for some tight spot. The showers as well as the towels they come with were great. The resteraunt food was good quality. Great service. And amazing size portions. WELL WORTH IT! and the commies chairs of any regular restaurant. Bathrooms were super clean and spacious. The coin laundry is older but works great. No electronic b.s. breaking down on you. Ill take paying money to stay here, over free anywhere else ANY DAY!!!
Recommendation from someone to try this out. Food was great with a wonderful server. The atmosphere was warm and inviting.
Always a great time at Bike Night.
You gotta see this place. Really cool nostalgic decor. Youll spend an hour looking at yge ceiling and not see it all, lol. High praise and appreciation for the service, and the food is mouthwatering. My new favorite place.
I was surprised to find no more fish and chips. Huh? They were good enough for me to bring visitors and family into the house... And now...?
Love coming out for Bike night at blackjack! Great atmosphere to spend a Tuesday evening. Some pretty awesome events to check out as well!
Always a safe bet for quality and comfort
Love the atmosphere and speed of service. Coffee cup never got below half before being offered a top up. Top notch place for breakfast.
We waited for 20 min before anyone came to tak our order, thats pretty bad when a server walked passed us every 10 seconds. I had a pound of wings and a iced tea and my bill was over $30! Expensive food and terrible service, they lost 5 custamers that day Food : 3/5
This is my Cheers where I feel like Norm! I may go a little too often but usually just for a beer after work! Service
Cool place to hang for a meal or just for coffee. Food and service was a ten.
Excellent breakfast and great service
Awesome food! Great atmosphere and lots to look at. Parking: Tons of available parking. Food : 5/5 |
A bit pricey for brunch
Wings were really good, service was fast and kind.
Good food, quick service, good amount of seating
