Overall, a good experience. The food was fresh, beautifully presented, and well-balanced in flavor, not too oily. The coffee was also very good. The restaurant had a clean, modern, and relaxed atmosphere, which I really liked. The service was friendly, though a little slow during peak hours. In general, this is a great place for a casual brunch or a coffee gathering. While not amazing, it's definitely reliable. read more

Truly love the vibe and menu and of course the service they offered. I went to two different locations in one day because I wanted to try more items on their menu! Highly recommended!! read more

Went with work group. Although the website/ voice message said no reservation for lunch, the manager told us that they take reservations. The menu has many vegetarian options. The place is spacious. Portion is generous and taste good. I had their signature shakshuka with salad challah bread. The bread is very fresh and tasty. Please note they put compulsory 18% gratuity for big groups, but the service was attentive. Will come back for work team lunch. read more

We came here on a whim around lunch time. It was a pretty large establishment when we walked inside, and it was packed. There was a tablet by the door so we just put our names on the wait list. We waited for a couple minutes before we got seated, so wait time wasn't too bad. I really liked the ambiance and design inside. Originally I wanted to get a tiramisu, but the waiter told me that they were already sold out. It was around 11:30 in the morning and they were already out of tiramisu? I was so disappointed, but I knew that I had to come back because I'm sure their tiramisu was that good. For drinks, we got a London Fog with oat milk and I got an Iced Latte with oat milk. Both drinks were good, the oat milk blended well with the espresso. It was rich yet creamy. I forgot what exactly my boyfriend ordered. But it had eggplant. I think it might've been the Sabbich Bowl. His entree was very good, it was flavorful and savory. Since I had my heart set on the tiramisu and something along those lines, I just ordered the Belgian Waffle. That was pretty good too, the waffle texture was crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside. All the components were great, I loved the sliced bananas and nutella with the waffle. There were so many different textures on this dessert plate but it came together so well. It definitely satisfied my sweet tooth. Lastly, service was excellent. I was actually impressed. Though they were very busy and the staff were running around the place for a good couple minutes, we got seated quickly. Our server was awesome, he was helpful and funny. We were taken care of and had a pleasant experience. This was actually my last meal before heading to the airport, so I'm happy that my trip ended on a good note. I look forward to coming back again and trying other things on their menu, and the tiramisu! read more

Stopped by this cafe after walking around Toronto with some friends. They have a good deal in the afternoon where you can get any coffee and pastry for 7 dollars. The drinks and cocktails are all 7 dollars as well which was listed outside on a sign. My friends ordered coffee and pastries for 7 dollars and I got a croissant and red sangria. For the price this place was good and the service was decent. A lot of people were working or meeting up with people in this location. read more

Went on a Sunday morning, they were very busy so the waiters were slow. The kebabs shakshuka was so so, meat was more of a strong flavour like lamb taste, the Mediterranean omelette was good. Breads are made fresh and delicious. Cappuccino was really nice and creamy. English breakfast tea was too light, stronger would be much better. read more

Awesome service! Had to catch a show at the nearby theatre and this was a close option for dinner. Service was amazing, server helped with any questions we had, food was fantastic, and got us out in less than an hour! Nothing but good vibes, drinks and, food.

Always brunch staple. I can always count on Cafe Landwer to have fresh high quality food and an amazing coffee bar. The service is friendly and efficient. The shakshuka is a must try! The restaurant is light and airy, they also sell the shakshuka sauce in a jar for home read more

Cute diner. Terrible service and average breakfast. Ordered the croissant Benedict and the potatoes appeared to be burnt or cooked in old oil. They had a very unpleasant bitter aftertaste. Also had French toast which was tasty but also seemed overdone. It was not busy and we waited 10 mins for anyone to take our order, then waited another 15 for our coffee to arrive. Once we were done we waited another 20 minutes for our bill. Not terribly impressed and won't be going back. read more

I had searched for a nearby breakfast cafe in yelp and came across Cafe Landwer. I read through some of the feedback and thought I'd try it out myself.

Cafe Landwer- Front - Halloumi Shakshouka - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

We checked in and waited to be seated at a very bad seat, which was unfortunate but we didn't care because we were so hungry. Server was nice but the food was just okay. Actually, my shashuka was not okay- it was totally overcooked. I didn't enjoy the flavours at all. The home made fococcia was sooooooo salty I had to tap off all of the salt flakes and it was still too salty. We also had the schnitzel with potatoes. Again, salty. Good crisp though. We will likely not come back. This place will last because it is across from Meridian. So I guess it will become a tourist spot. read more

Left after 20 mins with no service. Likely a mix up between servers, but we were in a rush.

Located at the corner of Front St and Scott St across from Berzcy Park, even though the address is Yonge St. It was late afternoon so not busy. We were immediately seated on the outdoor patio. A Mediterranean place. They have brunch which I hear is good, pastries, various drinks and coffees, pizza, burgers, pastas and Mediterranean options. Service was attentive and friendly. We had: Sharwarma sandwich: 4/5 - this was nicely prepared. The chicken was tender and you can taste all the various sauces and ingredients individually. Served with a basic salad which had fresh. Chicken skewer main: 3/5. The chicken in its own didn't have much flavour. You needed the sauce to help it along. The rice was flaky but nothing exceptional. Kofta skewer main: 2.5/5. The beef and lamb ground meat texture was a bit rough. Needed more seasoning. Like the chicken, it needed the sauce to improve it. Aperol spritz - 4/5. Nicely done. Serving sizes were reasonable. Reasonable prices. read more

This Yonge & Front location is Cafe Landwer's newest location. The interior has a more retro diner look compared to the other locations, but still with the same bright and casual ambience. There are patio seatings outside in the summer, with good view of the park nearby. The menu is the same as in all other locations. Excellent food as usual - everything is delicious. They're most famous for their shakshouka, bread, and breakfast / brunch items, but other items on the menu are also equally good (fish, sabich bowl, falafels, etc.). There are lots of vegan, vegetarian, and plant-based options. Their vegan omelette (made of quinoa and chickpea flour) is one of my favourite items to get here. It comes as part of Farmer's Breakfast (if you ask to make it vegan), or it can be ordered as a stand-alone item. The sides are also really good - mujaddra (rice with lentils and spices), rice (with carrots, almonds, and caramelized onions), green vegetables (freshly cooked broccoli, green beans, and spinach), side salad, chopped salad, etc. Everything is fresh. read more

This place has been on my list ever since it opened. After all, the menu looked well rounded. I ordered the salmon fish. Unfortunately, it was overcooked - it was dry and chewy. Luckily, the server came by to ask how our dishes were, so I told her the situation. She was very apologetic and rectified the overcooked fish by replacing it with another that was moist and tender. I really appreciate the service given here and would go back to give them another chance. read more

Had a bit of a wait but the food and staff were great. This location had a great ambiance. It felt large and spacious but still warm and inviting. The food was delicious and their portions were big. I'd recommend the croissant eggs Benedict (thought you may have to ask for a better knife to cut through everything) and their shakshuka. Also recommend the Nutella latte! That was delicious read more

The food is always fresh and so tasty, you got to eat here it's a must you won't be sorry

Visited this place for Saturday breakfast-we tried the granola yoghurt and omelette dish. All were delicious along with their coffee. Service was friendly and fast. The place gets busy and there was quite a line by the time we left (around mid-morning) so recommend getting in early to avoid a wait. Charming old-world ambiance. Vibe was fun and friendly. read more

We ordered takeout from cafe Landwer on a Saturday morning. I got the halloumi shakshuka with challah bread and he got a shawarma plate with rice. The shakshuka perfectly hit the spot of tasty and light yet substantial. The challah bread was fresh and perfect of dipping. The chicken shawarma plate was exactly what my husband needed after he hadn't been feeling well the day before. The meat, sauces and rice were all exceptional. He ate the whole thing and felt much more energized. If you want classic Mediterranean food done well, this is the spot. I'd like to dine in at the actual restaurant next time and try out more of their menu items. read more

Had been waiting for this location to open for some time now , since the signs went up. Visited on a Saturday for brunch , place was packed both inside and patio . Staff were extremely friendly, cheerful and with big smiles! We ordered Smoked Salmon Sandwich & chicken shawarma on a pita with crispy potatoes and orange juice. The food was delicious and flavourful. Throughout our time there, multiple team members kept checking on us and if we needed anything. Great experience, ambience, and I guess they are still waiting on their liquor license as we definitely missed our brunch Mimosas !! read more

Very good food, on a similar level as those in Austria and Germany. The schnitzel was fried nicely and crispy, not too oily nor overcooked. It took longer than usual to prep even though we told the waitress we're in a hurry to catch a show. As soon as I followed up, the food was ready and brought to us in 60 seconds. read more

The service was good, and the food was decent. We ordered their signature shakshuka and a burger. I liked the shakshuka, but it was a bit disappointing that the side bread served with it wasn't warm. The burger was average, though it had a good portion. I would highly recommend trying their true mocha, it's absolutely amazing! read more
