    The food is decent but the reason for 4 stars is the price. It is just insanely expensive. We love to go out for breakfast and we love brunch and we just wanted a nice little outing. However, my breakfast sandwich with a very tiny side of fruit was $16. My daughter ordered a kids meal and a drink which was around $11... It's just crazy for two people to go out for breakfast is almost $30 before tip. I did not even allow myself to get coffee because the menu prices were just so high, which was a bummer. The value just isn't there for what you're paying. I will say service was good but again the pricing was just frustrating. Their portions are on the smaller side so there's not even like a really expensive meal with a little bit of leftovers to stretch it out.

    Chicken Tinga Omelette

    The FOOD WAS GREAT! The SERVICE FELL WAY SHORT. As a YELPer I pride myself in being pretty fair and try to make my reviews line up with the score and I try to assume the best even when an experience falls short. With that said, this should have been a 5 all day long but the service was abysmal. I started to give it a 3 but that seems too harsh. Things started out great. The young man sat me and another server grabbed my coffee but then I got handed off to another server. She took my order but never came back. Someone else brought me my food, another took my empty plate, the other cashed me out (after waiting 20 minutes for her to come back and maybe refill my coffee). That said, the Chicken Tinga Omelette was one of the best things I have ever eaten for breakfast. Omelette was cooked perfectly, chicken was marinated, shredded and delicious. Served over seasoned black beans and topped with cotija cheese. It was great. It is the only reason the review is a 4 and not a 3 but had the service been marginally better it would have been a 5 hands down!

    Canopy Road had been on my list to try for so long, and we finally made it in. Lowlight- the cinnamon roll didn't live up to the hype. The donut holes more than made up for it though, and the rest of our food did too. With my savory brunch fare I was wishing for a Bloody Mary, but they do have mimosas. I stuck with coffee. There's more I want to go back and try.

    Cinnamon roll

    My experience here wasn't great. We went midmorning on a Saturday and seemed to arrive at a good time when only a handful of tables were filled. As we were there, though, the place definitely seem to get busier. We reviewed the menu and asked about a children's menu, which they ended up having. Although it wasn't in print, our waitress knew that the options included French toast sticks, a Mickey pancake, Canopy Road breakfast with toast/eggs/meat, grilled cheese sandwich, hamburger/cheeseburger, and chicken tenders. Fries were included with the lunch options. We started with the cinnamon roll and ordered the Mexican omelette that had chorizo, pepper, jack and cheddar cheeses, onions, peppers, and was supposed to be top with pico de gallo and micro cilantro. We also got another omelette that we built and the kids hamburger with fried. The cinnamon roll came out quickly and shortly after, the entrées arrived. I first noticed that the kids burger had cheese on it, though we had ordered a hamburger. They took the cheeseburger and fries back. Later on, they brought out a hamburger with no fries, saying that the fries would be coming. The hamburger ended up having butter on the bun and had to be sent back for just a plain bun due to a dairy allergy. They brought the bun back quickly and we waited on the fries. The omelettes were just ok. The chorizo was definitely overcooked and hard, the cheese was concentrated on one side of the omelette, and the omelettes were not fluffy. They both appeared quite simple. I would say that the pluses about this place were that the biscuit was good, the cinnamon roll was delicious, and the fruit was fresh. The omelettes were nothing more impressive than what could be made at home and when both adults were done, we were still waiting on the kid's meal fries. When we asked for the bill, we shared with the waitress that the fries never came. She inquired about whether we wanted to wait longer on the fries or take the burger off the bill. This was surprising to me as most places would've just suggested taking it off the bill given that it was made incorrectly and the fries never arrived. She asked us our preference and opted to take it off the bill. She then proceeded to take the burger (which was uneaten) away as well. I wouldn't say that this was excellent customer service. I'm not sure that this is a place that I would return to. I found most of the food relatively average and the customer service was just OK.

    Breakfast Burrito and coffee

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]This cafe was hopping on a Saturday morning.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I was lucky to snag a seat at the count. Service was fast and friendly. I ordered to Breakfast Burrito it was wonderful, stuffed full with yummy goodness with a well grilled tortilla shell.

    Hash brown with cheese (+$1.00 upgrade) - thin and unsatisfying

    Definitely gone downhill for delivery orders. Not enough food given and feeling like we got less food for more money/upgrades

    One of the things about Canopy that I love most is the regulars. I think it speaks a lot about the business to have repeat customers and to see the familial banter with workers. It's a beautiful thing! Went for a late breakfast so didn't have the usual longer wait, just a quick 5-10 mins until we were seated. Service was friendly and attentive. Received our food fairly quickly, too. I don't get to come here often but when I do, I always enjoy what I order. Today was no different. Just went with basic breakfast orders: the hasher and canopy road special. First time trying the hasher upon raving reviews from a few friends. It was ok. I think my expectations were high, and while I liked the cook on the hash (crispy), I don't believe it was homemade corned beef - please correct me if I'm wrong. And I'm not a fan of the canned stuff. Regardless, still enjoyed breakfast and will keep Canopy Road on the breakfast spot rotation.

    Ive been here a few times and each time I've had no complaints. I really like a Canopy Road Cafe. Ideal for simple breakfast date if you want to chill and chat for a bit. Service is always very very good, the servers are always in a good mood and atmosphere is great. Their seasonal pumpkin pancake is quite a treat. I highly recommend!

    Fried Green Tomatoes: perfect. The Hasher: darn good beef hash. Service: very good and attentive.

    Southern Benedict with bacon and hash browns.

    Came back to Canopy after not going for awhile and was very interested when I saw that their menu had been updated. I also noticed that they now has seasonal specials and luckily for me one of them really stood out to me , the Short Rib Benedict. If you know me you know I love short ribs and that I'm a sucker for different types of benedicts. Unlucky for me though that were currently out of it. So I went with my back up benedict which always has been Crab Cakes Benedict. The Crab Cakes Benedict comes with Two tender crab cakes atop sautéed spinach on grilled ciabatta with two basted eggs covered in creamy hollandaise, pico de gallo, scallions and Old Bay seasoning. Now I opted for no spinach of course and home fries for my side since Ashley is always known to get hash browns. Our food came out in about 10 minute and my crab cakes were nice and large. They were pretty tasty but not the best crab cakes benedict I have had. Metro has been doing their best to keep that title. I was also a big fan of the home fries were I believe are deep fried and not pan fried so you get crispier potatoes. Ashley got the Southern Benedict which comes with A split buttermilk biscuit topped with pimento cheese, fried green tomatoes, sausage patties and two basted eggs then covered in creamy hollandaise sauce. This was going to be my third pick had there been no Crab Cakes Benny so that at least really worked out. Can't go wrong with Pimento Cheese on anything especially when you got fried green tomatoes. This was also very good. Will for sure be coming for often to Canopy now since we are now in the middle of 2. Just gotta make sure you get there early because they full up fast but you once seated you are pretty much in and out within 30 minutes.

    ... well. This is more of a service to those who love to order corned beef hash. If you're going to serve Hormel canned corned beef, and have the nerve to put that on the receipt but not on the menu, do it. The audacity to charge $14 for a quarter of a can of Hormel is asinine. Grits could use some love. Toast proper stale. Cream cheese served in a packet. Overall do not recommend. The server even admitted there have been so many issues with the cream cheese packets, she offered scissors. Server was great. Restaurant is clean. Host stand is in the corner tucked away and easy to miss upon entry. I've posted a photo of the meal in comparison to a different restaurant in town that charges the same amount. Overall, hard pass.

    Breakfast dates are the best. We stopped by on our way from an early morning doctor appointment. The rave reviews are really worth the hype. From the outside this restaurant is small and unassuming; however, inside is the hustle and bustle of a true small town diner where everyone is framily. The staff is very friendly and the food is great with large portions. If I could only get the recipe for their cinnamon rolls I would never leave my house.

    It's a Metro Diner so generally speaking everything is good. I was here for a late-ish breakfast…read morewhile killing time. Good service (Thank you, Matthew!) It is a new place as everything is in St. John's. Clean and well-lighted. My only real gripe was that I ordered a 3-egg breakfast platter and the amount of scrambled eggs was 1.5 at best. Certainly not three. I did not bring it to my server's attention. But the server should be checking this sort of thing before he leaves for the table. Pet peeve of many breakfast restaurants in N.E. Florida... why does no one butter the toast in the kitchen before serving it? Is it a law or health code thing? Do I need to ask them to butter the toast?Somebody please advise. Thanks.

    My good buddy bezos last night decided it was a great idea to drink a bunch and then take 5…read moreshotguns at around 4am. The other part of the group also drank their life away, and because of this you always need to go to a diner the next day. It was a pleasant afternoon.. the birds were chirping, the sky was partly cloudy, and the wind felt cool. The group stumbled on Metro Diner which looked very appealing! We were told by a couple nice people that it was only a 15 minute wait which was perfectly fine so we went to Publix and bought a couple things. When we came back we were seated outside with a friendly waiter who got us going right away. The ogre kept saying how she wanted fried chicken and waffles, but then got nervous because it was 2000 calories.. like what? "You're on vacation just get the chicken and waffles." She was already overweight anyways so why not add more fuel to the fire. Anyways onto what we got! Me: egg scramble bowl with avocado and bacon. And oatmeal with fruit My good Buddy Bezos: burger bowl Doctor Bs wife: avocado egg sandwich thing Tragic: your classic eggs, toast, sausage, homefried The heaviest girl ever: Belgian waffle and some fruit? Okay pause.. how do you go from I WANT CHICKEN AND WAFFLES to mmm I'll have a waffle and some fruit! Okay anyways onto the reviews of the food itself! Doctor Bs wife: Really good Tragic: Mid Ogre: My eggs tasted like the were sitting out a while, the waffle wasn't hot but still good and I wish it was warmer and the butter was hard and cold My good buddy bezos: actually he was in the shower so I didn't get his review, but I know he liked it, that burger bowl actually looked good. Me: Yeah I mean I am a sucker for scrambled bowl with hollandaise sauce, I definitely have had way better, but the taste was there. I would like to add that I basically finished my entire meal before tragic or the wife got theirs. It will be shown in the photos below. I tried to be polite and wait, but after 5 minutes without their food showing up I had to eat I was starving. It's kind of crazy to me that me ogre and my good buddy bezos were first. I would think that the classic plate of tragics would be easy, as well as the sandwich because it's just the same stuff in my bowl just between bread somewhat. I enjoyed the ambiance and the feel of the place for sure. The music that was playing was also enjoyable, so initially I was at a three but because of those factors along with the fact that I did somewhat like my food more than the others (which is rare) and don't feel terrible after that's why we stand at a four. I would like to clarify every place has its own rating system. Like you cannot compare a fancy restaurant to a diner although they are still deemed a 4 on my page. Sorry anyways, the prices were also really reasonable and we had a good time. Maybe next year when we are back around here we will come back! It was good!

I got here as they opened on Sunday, and it got packed relatively quickly. I'd recommend having a reservation if you're planning to visit during busier timeframes like this. I was seated promptly by attentive staff, and quickly had both food and drink menus to begin ordering. I was looking for something tasty without being too heavy, and settled on the Little Hans Vienna Lager along with the 8 oz steak burger and fries. The beer had amazing flavor similar to Devil's Backbone Vienna Lager with a good, crisp finish. The burger meal, described with "Tillamook cheddar cheese, caramelized onion & bacon jam, beef fat aioli, grilled potato roll, truffle fries", was arguablely the best burger and fries I've ever had in my life. Everything tasted fresh, and the flavor of the wood-fired grill certainly complemented the meat. The house-made pickles were a great touch to add another layer of complexity to the burger. I could tell the fries were fresh cut and never frozen. The truffle oil made these even more amazing. The manager offered and brought a special sauce to try that they normally serve with their chicken chicken sandwich that was superbly tasty and tangy. More than impressed with my entree, I elected to try a desert and was recommended the S'mores pie by my waitress. The deliciously buttery crust was my favorite part of the ensemble and blended well with the savory chocolate filling topped with a toasted marshmallow. While a bit pricey for lunch compared to most places, I was more than satisfied with the offerings provided here and would love to visit Ember and Iron again. Give my number one choice of 2026 thus far some love!
