This place may be called the Hometown Diner but the food is unlike any other diner you have been to! It is unique, flavourful and worth coming back for (we went twice in the three days we were in the city!) The service was amazing! They are hopping busy but so friendly and willing to explain the menu item. The owners are all about locally sourcing the food so the perogies and sausages are handmade in the province! And they are passionate about making good food - there is nothing bad on the menu. The vibe is an upscale diner. Easy going and somewhere you will want to come back to. Perhaps in the afternoon to have a coffee and a homemade daily special donut??? Didn't get one of those this time.... Guess I know where I'll be stopping on my next trip to the city! read more

The atmosphere is casual and kind of hipster-ish cool but is welcoming to all walks of life. I saw young adults wearing artsy fashion styles and groups of families eating with their kids. California always gushes about the avocado toast and I was finally able to try it here at Hometown Diner! It was delicious. This version had a bit too much lime or lemon juice on it for my tastebuds but it was still appetizing. It is called the Avotoast. My boyfriend ordered the Traditional Breakfast meal and found it very on point to his standards. read more

Usually i love hometown. The food is always good and the service is usually top notch. Today was different. Food was ok but service was not good. Didn't check up on us more than once and didn't refill any of our drinks or even ask if we wanted refills. I'll be back because I'm hoping this is an anomaly. read more

A great spot with great vibes. The food is spectacular with a Ukrainian flare. The staff is amazing and welcoming. The entire experience is a 10 end-to-end. read more

Super cute spot, trendy, live plants, hipster feel inside. Great service, friendly waitresses, good amount of seating. Prices and selection of items on the menu are good! Place to hang coats at the front door (important as we wear parkas here in S'toon). I had a modified brunch Benny (holly on side). Eggs were perfectly cooked medium, rosemary potatoes with sea salt cooked crunchy how I like, bacon tasted great and cooked to perfection. I loved the diced chives as garnish. Got an eggnog donut to go which was filled with delicious custard. I enjoyed my experience here. Would return! read more

Went there for Sunday brunch and loved the vibe of this place. It has a young cafe vibe, just exactly what we were looking for to get away from the cold dull weather. We ordered the Salmon Benny, Huevos Rancheros, and Very Berry Waffle. All the dishes were delicious and the poached eggs were prepared perfectly. Only thing they could change is maybe use larger eggs because the Benny dish appeared quite small. We also ordered Espresso Martini and Eggnog and both were good! read more

Really cute and fun place for brunch. Located downtown, this place has a lot to offer. The service was excellent. Our server was patient and very friendly. I ordered avo toast and was super disappointed for 12.50, I got one slice of toast with avo mashed on it, lemon zest, and chilli flakes. One piece of toast?!!! You can absolutely do better than that. That was a snack! read more

Soooooo sad we dont have chicken and waffles or coconut milk option We will be back when we can gave them again :( read more

A pleasant modern take on the classic brunch spot. Atmosphere: 4/5 - Modern & sleek with not the most comfortable seating. Price: $$$/5 - Average for brunch ($14 - $18 a plate). Customer Service: 4/5 - Server was polite. Service was slightly slower than average speed. Location: 4/5 - Lots of nice shops nearby. Close to river & transit. Taste: 4/5 - Average to above average depending on plate. Menu: 4/5 - Average size menu with many classic brunch plates. Gluten Free friendly. Sustainability: 3/5 - Committed to locally produced ingredients in some plates. Strengths - Tasty food. Weaknesses - Lacking in sustainable initiatives. Good items to buy: Huevos Rancheros, French Toast Straight Up, Doughnut of the day. Summary: 3.8/5 - Overall, I would recommend stopping by Hometown Diner. They have some of the best brunch food in Saskatoon. Their menu is average size and full of classic brunch plates. They have amazing donuts with unique flavours. Interestingly, they have a large brunch alcohol menu. I really appreciate their commitment to using local ingredients but feel like they could be doing more in terms of sustainability. Thank you for taking the time to read my review and I hope it helps you!! read more

In a word- fabulous. Loved everything about this place- the ambience, the staff and, of course, the food. Stumbled upon the Hometown Diner while looking to fill some time and an empty belly during a family event on a Friday morning. Although we arrived at 9:30, the place was full with a 20 minute wait. This is usually not the greatest of beginnings for me but we went next door to Prism Coffee and drank some of the best lattes we have ever had and the time just flew by. When we were seated we had an opportunity to speak to the owner of the restaurant, Cara, who told us of their passion for food and how they traveled around sampling the restaurant fare of other cities to measure the pulse of the food scene in various places. It was a fascinating conversation and we followed one her recommendation for breakfast, the Greek Eggs Benny. This was delicious with a perfectly poached egg, hollandaise, spinach, shallots, tomatoes and feta served with hash browns that reminded me of refried smashed potatoes. We also had the chicken and waffles which came covered in peppered maple bacon and was the perfect mix of salty, sweet, savoury and spicy. I had a wonderful time at the Hometown Diner, so much so, I brought the kids there the following day. read more

My favourite brunch place in the city. Giving it 4-stars because of the two times that I've ordered their chicken and waffles and both times the chicken came out burnt and very dry. So I decided to maybe not order anything else for a while and just stick to my tried and tested, the Scrambler. It's so good. The restaurant's aesthetic is a win for me. Service is always great no matter how busy the place is, which is every damn day. It's probably the only restaurant in the city I'd consider sitting in a communal table. read more

Over priced brunch style place. The food is average. It is hard to mess up with egg, bacon and hash brown. Avocado toast is surprisingly small. One slice bread, some avocado, two slices of tomato, an egg = $10?? Coffee and tea are expensive here. Ask the price before you order anything to drink. I had better food at lower price in the same style of restaurant in Vancouver B.C. I guess the cost here is higher than in the big cities. 3 stars is for the food. 5 stars for the clean environment, especially the washroom. This is a place for people wanting the "style" not the food. You cannot expect having conversations in this restaurant. It is so noisy and the service is to rush you out once you finish your food. read more

I've always been a fan of local diners and restaurants, so when I saw Hometown I knew I had to check it out... and I wasn't disappointed! I've tried almost everything on the menu and everything has been delicious. I especially like their chicken and waffles, and the poutine. Their donuts are also worth it. I will say that their orange juice is quite pricey for the size drink you get, but regardless it still tastes good. Highly recommend! read more

Good food and a great experience. Always a great choice and would highly recommend as the food is delicious.

Really cute diner in Saskatoon. Amazing food and delicious coffee! The staff were happy to make recommendations for other little hot spots in the area. read more

The atmosphere here is excellent! Very unique and a cool place to meet for a meal. Great service and friendly staff made the hospitality stand out. The menu had good options and we appreciated how they highlighted the local businesses that they get food from. Food wise we had the Heuvos rancheros and steak and eggs. The eggs had a deep colour and were very tasty. The Heuvos had a good portion size and were delicious. The steak came presliced (interesting choice) and the side of greens were more of a garnish then a side. (3 pieces of lettuce and a tomato ). But the toast and meal were satisfying. You pay for the quality of the place and we have to say that the low light was that the coffee was fairly watery and a bit of a let down but it could have been the pot that day. Overall 4/5 and we would come back and recommend this place. read more

Love everything about this place. Location, service, vibe and food. Bravo! Veggie brekkie, Eggs Bennie & Breakfast BLT did not disappoint. read more

Sort of a pretentious hipster vibe. The food is actually very good in an expensive breakfast involving avacado and sprouts kind of a way.

Stopped in for breakfast. There are a lot of unique choices on the menu as well as the basics. Tried the French toast, it was very good and definitively not short on toppings. They could improve their coffee, it was not the greatest. read more

Got a coffee and a donut to go and both were delicious! Prices were a bit high but worth it for the obvious high quality of both. A really neat retro minimalistic decor with diner style seating. read more

A tad over priced for what you get, but definitely a solid restaurant! The area in which it's located isn't the best, but once you step inside it's super cute, and gives a very earthy and modern vibe. The staff is very laid back and welcoming! I had the poutine and lemonade when i went, the lemonade i will not be having again. It was very watery, and i just didn't like it, but i could see people finding it refreshing. The poutine was surprisingly good! their donuts are so warm and amazing, the best i've ever had! will be coming back!:) read more

Hometown is great. Best eggs benny in the city, though don't stop there -- the menu is fire. Everything here is amazing.

Very good breakfast. Food tasted amazingly fresh and well flavored. Reasonably priced as well. Their Saskatoon Berry kombucha was very refreshing, albeit a bit on the tiny side. Love the interior of this place. Very open, so you're not squished in next to diners. Lots of space to walk and move about. I do agree with one of the other reviews that this place is kind of loud. Had great music playing while we were there, but kind of hard to hear conversation without having to raise your voice. Did not get a chance to try their donuts, as we were quite full from lunch, but will try next time!! read more

I love it here. We go every time we're in town. Hometown really does make it feel like home. Ten out of ten would recommend.

Went to this diner on the suggestion of a friend. It was delicious!! Nice sized portions, great coffee and the atmosphere was great. The vegetarian as well as the ham eggs Benedict were excellent. Average bill around $23.00 but worth it for the quality you get. The server was very pleasant and attentive. Will be back again next time we are in Saskatoon. read more

Had the pleasure of coming here a few times, always amazing. The eggs Benedict is totally on point. Service was excellent, and very friendly. Highly recommend read more

I wasn't sure about this place because of its location but after visiting it is officially one of my favorite breakfast places. The food is always great, the staff are all friendly and they have homemade donuts! What more do you need! We try to visit at least once a month. A little on the smaller side - we have a baby and the booths are usually always taken and their highchair clips to the table so you need a booth, sometimes the wait is a little longer because of that. I won't take a star away from it for that reason though. This place is great! read more

Dropped in for breakfast, ordered the Traditional Brekkie. Great service, terrific food, casual atmosphere. This place does breakfast well- better quality food than most, reasonable price and very good service. Locally sourced ingredients, try the rye bread from the Night Oven. Best hash browns I can remember, fruit side was excellent. They also have a better selection of breakfast beer and morning cocktails than anyone else in Saskatoon. I just had coffee, also good. read more

Six of us were there on Saturday for lunch - super busy (Reservations recommended) Each of us had something different and couldn't say enough good things about the food! I had the Lox - different presentation than I've ever had but totally amazing. The spicing was a delight and coupled with a delectable vinaigrette over everything- I'd have it again! Plates were cleaned - even my seven year old granddaughter. The place is a little gem and I highly recommend it. read more

Been going to this place for years. Very consistent, good fresh food. Would recommend to anyone.

Oh. My. God. Best brunch ever. I love everything about this place. Super hip, cool ambience. The food is amazeballs. I had the eggs bene with bacon and home fries. The presentation is lovely, the eggs perfectly poached with nice, lemony hollandaise. Beautiful home fries with a touch of rosemary. Best I've ever had. I highly recommend. read more

This diner is great! Very modern and clean. Hands down, the best eggs benny I've ever had. I travel all over the US and Canada and this outshines any other. The Caesar was also a very good addition to the meal. Homemade donuts are made in house. I did not have any, but they looked delicious. The waitress was extremely nice and welcoming. The next time I am in the area, I will definitely be stopping back in! read more

Fantastic food, and service! One of the best places in Saskatoon for brunch. Great coffee! Highly recommended, and wonderful staff.

Lovely dining area. Food was mediocre. Also my fries were stale and bland and clearly made the day before

Excellent food for breakfast and lunch. Consistent pleasurable food with amazing service:)

So delicious and SO friendly, a lot of brunch places rush you or the staff seem super stressed, our server was so sweet and friendly. Coffee is delicious, food options are plentiful, highly recommend. Obviously the only issue is trying to get a table on busy weekends! read more
