Basic breakfast fare, pricy for the quality…read more Came here because I've been to way too many breakfast spots and I wanted to cover the stragglers in the area. I came to this place and it was not very busy. I took a seat and sever brought over a really nice menu. Suspect they just renovated which is good. Spying creton on the menu, was hoping for other Canadian fare. But alas, no other items besides their maple syrup. The server was kind and answered all my questions. They checked in for a coffee refill once, but did not ask how my food came out. I opt for my standard measure: French toast with real maple syrup. I opt for the apples warmed up, and no ice cream sadly. Food comes out quick and actually pretty nice looking. Took pics and dug in. I have certain things I look for when it comes to French toast, this place unfortunately missed all the marks. Too fresh of bread with too light of a soak, no cinnamon flavor and a light toast. Cooked on a flattop that had onions on it, leaving the faint hint of onion funk on the French toast. The apples were very tasty though, and the maple syrup was real and a golden syrup. Which was not potent enough to mask the off flavors, but was a nice light maple. A standard cup of diner Joe, the French toast with add ons came out to just shy of 18. If properly executed it could justify that price point, but from what I got it was lacking. I can see this being a perfectly fine basic breakfast spot, but it's a bit pricy for what you get. If you do decide to give this place a try, go for basic breakfast fare, stick to the savory and watch for the add-ons

It really bothers me that I didn't say anything earlier and that I tip this person but I realized that I didn't want to ruin my grandsons birthday. Not for nothing but my grandson enjoyed his meal.

Tried again, still pretty good but need some refinement…read more On my retries of breakfast spots. Went to get a coffee at the cozy coffee spot close by, and decided to give these guys another try. Server was a little over friendly. Not a negative but it does give me pause. I do try to be just another customer when I do my treks, and overeagerness makes it seem like my experience may be over conflated. Then again, the chances of me having clout are minimal. So I ordered my bananas foster French toast and real maple syrup and wait for my food. I get it quickly, then it gets scooped up because they forgot the caramel sauce. Gets re-delivered quickly and I dig in. French toast is done well, no off flavors and bread was properly soaked. Bananas were grilled and jammy, caramel sauce was tossed on bananas and whipped cream was from a can but okay as a garnish. I get the idea of what they were going for, and appreciate the properly warmed fruits and cook of the French toast itself. To me, bananas foster is banana, brown sugar, rum, and butter. The brown sugar makes the caramel and the rum adds a woody, smoky element to the sauce. Butter adds richness and body, enhancing mouthfeel. This dish has the essence of the dish it's named for, but is lacking the flavor punch. My thought: take maple syrup which has that woody taste. Mix butter and brown sugar and boil it to a thick syrup state. Make that a drizzle, and stripe it across the dish with the warmed up banana. Skip the canned whipped cream, or offer fresh whipped cream or a small dish of vanilla ice cream with the drizzle on top as well. You get the flavors of the namesake dish, the tasty bananas and the great French toast. That would make the dish stellar. As of right now, it's pretty good. It's a perfectly fine breakfast spot, does a good French toast and the price is a little high but not extensively so. The only problem I see is there's a lot of fast casual breakfast spots on that stretch of road. They will need to innovate to avoid losing business to the surrounding shops. If they offer superior quality, they may make themselves a mainstay. There's many paths they can take though, this is just one trekking foodie's random ideas

This came with spinach, tomatoes, guacamole and sun-dried tomato hollandaise. Absolutely incredibly delicious! We also ordered rye toast which was toasted perfectly. The coffee was great too. I highly recommend this place!

I'm already planning my next visit to try something else on the menu. Food came out presentable and hot. Glad I came here because it's prob one of the best breakfast spots in the area.
