We lived in Amherstburg for about 20 years before later moving to Windsor. After living over a…read moredecade in Windsor, we heard from a family friend that Speck's was THE place for breakfast in Amherstburg and has been for many years. We were surprised that we had never heard of it, even though we grew up in the very same town, so we decided to make a day of a drive back to the 'Burg for brunch. The good: Coffee Tea Sausage links The bad: Home Fries - bland and under-seasoned, as if they were boiled and barely kissed the grill. Eggs - 1 of the 4 orders at our table were overdone. Ham - overdone and tough to the point that it was very difficult to cut with a knife. Which was odd as they were thin slices! We wonder if it was old ham. Banana cream pie - bananas were overripe Pumpkin crunch pie - had a thin, soggy crust. Pumpkin filling was curdled like scrambled egg texture, under-sweet, and under-spiced. Not worth the $5 per slice. Very disappointing. 2-stars from me means that the food was edible, but definitely not recommendable. We finished our meals but grumbled our way back on our drive to Windsor. All that and the service wasn't even overly friendly Turns out there's a reason we had never heard of the place!

We were surprised to find it in a residential area by the lake and as far as we could see, it was the only business there. Yes, there were ducks on the roof. Upon entering, it was like taking a trip back to a 1950's restaurant in The Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Wood everywhere and duck carvings throughout. As it was Sunday, they had a buffet which we did not use but ordered off the menu. Most of the people eating there were locals but we were made to feel very welcome (very!) by our waitress and I think, the owner. Coffee was served in glass, not a mug and my hubby's OJ looked like it was served in a pilsner glass. We both had "classic" breakfasts- eggs over easy, potatoes, pancakes etc. the portions were very generous- the pancakes thick. We did not have a long wait for our food and it was hot upon arrival. We truly enjoyed tasting the homemade jam and it was a delightful experience.

I do not care for a lot of salt, but I added salt. I asked if perhaps my order was swapped with someone else's. Nope. All the kitchen screw-ups do not justify 3-Stars that Yelp considers Okay.

Obviously I have seen all the people posting about their pancakes, and yes, they are the size of hubcaps. For real reals. The guy next to me ordered them and my eyes almost popped out of my head. But when I walked into this cute little spot on Agnes in West Village, right there on the wall, on one of those dark boards where you slide the letters in (I think they are called felt letter boards) were six glorious words: This Week's Specials - Fried Bologna Sammy. Well there you have it folks. Decision immediately made. Here's the caveat though, it wasn't your typical thick sliced baloney (yes, I know what I did there) with some American cheese on a bun. Nope nope nope. This was pan toasted bread, pickled onions, lettuce, cheese and her bed mayo that was nothing short of spectacular. I didn't know if I would like something more than what I usually had and I can emphatically say yes I did. Had a delicious cup o' Joe to wash it all down and honestly was the happiest fat boy in the whole wide world. The service was fantastic, the food was fantastic, the experience was fantastic. What more could you ask for ?

Guests of a "certain size" may need to opt for the chair not the bench, like I did, to avoid butt swiping the table next to you. I ordered the egg and cheese sandwich, without the spicy pimento cheese (they have cheddar available). I found their sausage to have a bit of a heat to it, but my SO thought I was crazy, so that's just personal preference - I like a sweeter sausage. I also got a side of the breakfast potatoes and schmear. They say "smashed" on the menu, but I was pleasantly surprised by the full mini potatoes. I could slice them up how I wanted and could choose my level of schmear to dip. I found them very good. The SO got pancakes and a side of sausage and enjoyed them both. They came around a lot to ask if he needed a refill on coffee and to top off my water which was nice. The food was out extremely fast, helps to have a limited menu! I would definitely come again.
