The Engine Room brings relaxed, upscale-casual dining to the heart of Derby, with bold flavours, a stylish industrial-chic setting, and a laid-back approach to service.
The menu is built for sharing and socialising, with seasonal small plates, hand-stretched pizzas, generous charcuterie, grill favourites like juicy burgers and smoked bavette steak, plus indulgent desserts such as sticky toffee pudding and Eton mess.
There are plenty of vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options, alongside a strong drinks list featuring cocktails, wines, beers and ciders. Open from breakfast through to dinner, you can start the day with a buffet breakfast, drop in for coffee made with 200 Degrees beans, or enjoy a leisurely lunch with panini, sandwiches and poke bowls. The Engine Room is all about good food, good drinks and good company – a vibrant Derby spot you’ll want to revisit.
