A friend from 7th grade recommended Mildred's to me about 10 to 12 years ago. I kept it on my list all this time, and I definitely did not regret finally trying it. I went on a Saturday around 9:00 AM, and there was already a line of about seven people ahead of me. Since I was dining solo, I grabbed a seat at the kitchen bar, which ended up being a fun spot to watch everything happening. I ordered the mango mimosa and the wild blueberry pancakes. Mildred's has some of the best pancakes I have ever had. They were fluffy, flavorful and absolutely lived up to the hype. The mango mimosa was a little too sweet for my taste, but I would still love to come back and try more of their menu. The staff were friendly, although service was a bit slow to start. It took about 15 to 18 mins before I got water and was able to place my order. Overall, I can absolutely see why this place has such a great reputation. I waited over a decade to try it, and it was well worth the wait. read more

Mildred's Temple Kitchen is one of those classic Toronto brunch spots in Liberty Village. The space feels bright and relaxed, and the staff are friendly. Weekday brunch reservations can be made through their website, but weekends and holidays are walk-ins only, so expect a bit of a wait during busy hours. We ordered the "Wild Blueberry Buttermilk Pancakes" with a side of "Chocolate Chip Pancake", plus "the Manhandler" and virgin mimosas. The pancakes were soft, fluffy, and full of flavour, and the Manhandler was satisfying. read more

We visited this place on a Saturday morning about 15 minutes after they opened. We had very little wait (mainly in line as they organized their tables) and were seated within 10 minutes of putting our name down. My husband and I ordered the famous Mrs. Biederhof's Wild Blueberry Buttermilk Pancakes and Veda's Choice with potatoes. Both meals were absolutely fantastic and we were glad that we opted to share plates so we would both get the sweet and savory experience. This place ran so efficiently. We ordered and recieved our food very quickly. The restaurant itself is very nicely decorated and set up very nice. The bathrooms were clean and they had enough restrooms that I didn't have to wait in a line. The waitstaff was top notch and I thought they helped make the experience a phenomenal one! read more

We happened to dine in on a Tuesday. There was a wait, but there are many shops in the village to browse while we waited. I like the open concept. It's has a little storefront where you can purchase products. The pancakes were delicious. Tasted amazing. And were plenty in size! I paired mine with smoked salmon, my son had a side of sausage and eggs. Our server was efficient and kind. Overall it was a great experience! I would definitely dine in again . read more

Came here on over the holidays and put myself on the waitlist for a group of four and the wait was approximately 40 minutes. I've always wanted to try Mildred's so I was super excited to try it! I got the smoked salmon croissant with a side of salad. We also shared the blueberry pancakes which were also fantastic, so fluffy and tasty!! Not too sweet. They excel in both savoury and sweet and I would totally return back to have it again. Our server was very kind and the whole restaurant was beautiful! read more

#pancakesmakepeoplehappy We went on a Monday for brunch. Reservations aren't available on the weekends because they're so popular. I was able to easily make a reservation the evening before. You'll get reminder texts. If you are 15 minutes late you risk losing your table. Parking is easy if you use the parking garage ($2.00 CAD for 30 minutes). Super cute and the inside is actually very spacious! When we arrived around 10:45am there were some patrons but you'd still be able to walk in and grab a table. By around noon they started to fill up. You'd like have to wait 20 minutes for a table. We ordered the famous blueberry pancakes along with the avocado toast. A single pancake is also available for $9 CAD if you don't want to commit to the three pancake stack. Everything was made fresh to order and came out very quickly. We were able to order, eat, and be out of the parking garage in 30 minutes! The restrooms are gender neutral (single stall units with the sinks inside). These are some really good pancakes! I liked how thick they were. It wasn't too sweet. Very filling. The avocado toast was loaded with toppings. The salmon tasted more fresh than smoked imo. It came with your choice of fries or salad on the weekdays. On the weekends I think there's an extra choice of some kind of potato that isn't fries. We left stuffed. Service was really friendly too! Mildred's Temple Kitchen was a great way to end our Toronto trip. What better way to leave Canada than to enjoy maple syrup with pancakes. read more

Go for the pancakes, the ambiance, the service! Celebrated my sister's birthday and we had a beautiful time. We both indulged in their blueberry pancake stack. Our server was kind enough to write happy birthday on the plate and deliver it with a candle (& the party hat was such a nice touch). Such a wonderful surprise for my sister. Thank you! read more

Came here for brunch and honestly, it lived up to the hype. The place has a really warm, laid-back vibe without feeling too crowded or rushed. We ordered a few dishes to share, and everything was well executed--especially the pancakes, which were light, fluffy, and not overly sweet. You can tell they pay attention to balance and texture, not just presentation. Service was friendly and attentive without being overbearing, which I always appreciate. It felt like one of those spots where you can actually relax and enjoy your time instead of feeling rushed out the door. Definitely a place I'd come back to, especially for a slow weekend brunch. read more

The food was amazing, very short waiting time for a table, sincerely such an inviting feeling when you walk through the door. I was on a short friendly trip in Toronto came to see some friends and this place stood out from the reviews I had been reading, the pancakes looked out of this world so we decided to try it. What really makes this establishment stand out is that they add their own special touch to all the dishes including their coffee selection. The Salted Maple Latte was chef's kiss I had to get a second one. I would definitely return in the future just for that drink. It was an amazing time with friends and I'll always remember that delicious maple kiss! read more

I was traveling to Toronto and in my research, I learned this was a must for breakfast. So I had to try it. Unfortunately, they do not take reservations during the weekend. We got there around 11 AM and was told there would be a 90 minutes to 2 hours wait..WHOA!!! Since we ubered there, we put our name down and they would text it when the table was ready. It took almost the entire 2 hours for us to get a table. But we when were seated, we noticed there were some other available tables and no guests there until we were about to leave. Ambiance- very nice place. pretty decent size. Service - Our waitress Kendra was amazing. She was nice, courteous and served us with a smile. She was very informative about the menu and all the options available. Food- I ordered the Vida's Choice - poached eggs on a croissant with bacon, had to pay extra for avocado, My sister ordered the chix & waffles. We slit the wild blueberry pancakes. The Vida's choice was really good, creamy, crunchy and buttery at the same time. My sister enjoyed her chicken and waffle. We expected the pancakes to be out of this world, but it wasnt. It was a corn mix for the pancake. It was good, but not out of the world specular, read more

I spoiled myself for a little pick me up at Mildred's last month, one of my fav places for brunch. We had weekday reservations planned. Sometimes you just gotta treat yourself. But I wouldn't dare trying to brave the wait for a weekend spot otherwise. Of course we gotta start with their famous wild blueberry pancakes. Simply one of the best you can find in the city. Apparently you can also buy the pancake mix to go. I'm not the kind of person that normally have a sweet dessert for meal so I did add in some protein with sausage on the side, which I guess I kind of balanced out the meal? My SO also ordered some steak and eggs as well and he enjoyed that quite well. I also loved the presentation of the cucumber spritzer I had, quite refreshing. The vibe is pretty nice and spacious and relaxed,it wasn't too busy on a weekday brunch, which I prefer. The service was good. If you haven't been to Mildred's in a while, maybe it's a good time to check it out and treat yourself. read more

Everyone I know loves this place, and it's no wonder why. We ordered the Shak and the blueberry pancakes. My husband says the pancakes feel more like biscuits in their texture, because they're so thick! (a good thing). I had never tried shakshuka before but this place made me a convert. It's quite good!! I wish we were visiting for longer, because I really loved it. read more

I traveled from California to Toronto, and Mildred's was the first spot I stopped at after landing. I'd seen so many great reviews and wanted to check it out for myself. The food lived up to the hype -- fresh, flavorful, and well-portioned. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, which made it a nice way to kick off my trip. The reason I'm giving 4 instead of 5 stars is because there were a few flying bugs around the area, which I understand can be hard to avoid, but still a little distracting. Also, when it came time to check out, I felt the server hovering a bit to make sure I tipped, which made things slightly uncomfortable. That aside, I still really enjoyed my visit and I'd definitely come back to try more dishes next time I'm in Toronto. read more

Mildred's Temple Kitchen, located in Toronto's Liberty Village, is a classic local brunch restaurant. The bright, relaxed, and comfortable atmosphere is not crowded, and the staff are very attentive. We tried their signature blueberry buttermilk pancakes and chocolate cold brew coffee, both of which were delicious, sweet but not cloying. Whether for a weekend getaway or a weekday brunch reservation, this is an ideal choice, and the overall experience was very satisfying. read more

Me and 2 friends stopped in for brunch on a weekday and had a reservation. The service and atmosphere was really chic and modern and definitely made our experience. We ordered a lot of drinks and coffees and the menu was very extensive. As for the food the salmon and egg croissant was amazing and the biscuits were a fan favorite amongst my group. I suggest anyone who wants to go to Mildred's to make a reservation as it was quite busy and the staff was so nice and attentive. I would definitely come back when I visit Toronto again. read more

We went on a Friday with a reservation for 11:30am. We ordered: Blueberry pancake Mildred's hamburger Scone Chicken and waffle Note, only brunch is served and the menu is quite limited. Personally, the pancake was dense with a biscuit like texture. It must be eaten with the toppings otherwise it is too dry. I prefer that the pancake is served warm. I wondered if it was served cold because of the toppings. The scone was really dry and the apple jam has the same texture of applesauce. I did not enjoy the scone. The restaurant decor is beautifully bright and airy. In the table booking system, there are a few pre-visit questions which could be helpful for the restaurant to meet your needs. read more

Mildred's Temple Kitchen - A side of the blueberry pancake. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

A very well known brunch spot and especially for their wild blueberry buttermilk pancakes! They're obsoletely delicious, a little bit more dense texture it's unique and they add a ton of blueberries. If the full order is too much, you can order a single pancake as well. I always get the "veda's choice" which is a salmon with soft poached eggs between a croissant. It's super delicious and classic! The menu is quite small and they do offer alcoholic drinks if you're into that. The restaurant is quite spacious with lots of natural lighting. Service is nice and the server came to check up on us often. Expect long wait times during weekends !! I always get there right when they open so I don't have to wait. It is easy to find parking but it will not be right in-front of the restaurant as it's tucked into a pathway. read more

So... spoiler alert - we had our wedding reception here (PRE COVID!) in 2020 and even though they checked off ALL the boxes for our wants.. THE FOOD WAS KILLER. our tasting was so bomb back then...and ever since 2020, we've been wanting to go back for dinner. Yes, everyone raves abt their biscuits... pancakes.. BUT THE DINNER MENU. I have been begging them to open for dinners but they only do large events (fair!) and brunch all days. I may have even started begging friends to have their wedding there just so I can eat the food/appetizers that I missed at my own wedding cu we were too busy mingling. But alas... Winterlicious!!! I booked asap and I am so glad i got a date, on a Saturday night! It was so wonderful to be back in the space and all the fond memories came flooding back. The hubby and I got a date night (thanks GMA!) and it was wonderful, yummy and fabulous. I really do hope they do dinners again but I'll settle on winterlicious. (Which we never do bc a) kids and b) it's just not the real deal to me). But not the case at Mildred's! Everything was perfect... the crab cakes were a little disappointing but everything else was spot on. Donna was in the house and I had to stop myself from thanking her for building this beautiful space. If you know anyone who is thinking of booking an event, push them and then talk them into getting you onto the guest list (if you weren't already)... and me too, if you can. read more

Mildred's used to be so good! Unique in what it was. Unfortunately, portion size has been reduced dramatically. The pancakes are tiny now!

Best Brunch Spot in Toronto! Seriously, ask ChatGPT and it will tell you this spot. From the food to the atmosphere, and everything in between, you will love this place. The only recommendation I have is to be able to join a waitlist before arriving, like on Yelp, or something. Food - 5/5 - This place is famous for their blueberry pancakes... and let me tell you, the pancakes do not disappoint. Honestly! I love pancakes and have tried so many, and these are the only ones I like better than the ones mom makes. The quality is consistent too - I came here 5 years ago and again recently, and it's the same, which is great.. sometimes quality can decline after a few years, changes of chefs, etc. If you come here for the first time and order something different, jokes on you. Atmosphere - 5/5 - It feels like the luxury brunch spots you see on Instagram, and feels grand with its high ceilings, etc. Really adds to the experience and vibe. Service - 5/5 - Our server's name was Kendra, and she was fantastic. From the friendliness and kindness, to giving a complimentary scone for bringing the wrong thing, this place really has the best service. This is the cherry on top that makes you want to come back, despite the long wait times to be seated. Really, other than the wait time, there's nothing I can say can be improved with this restaurant. Til next time - thank you so much! read more

Love the ambiance and scenery at this easy to miss breakfast spot. We ordered the blueberry pancakes which were a sight to behold but actually a bit dry in sections that didn't have that blueberry compote. My hubby built his own croissant breakfast sandwich. Their croissants are buttery and flaky. Substantial vehicles for all the goodies he put inside. Now the bacon though. Wow. A side order of bacon was enough for three people and each piece was hearty and crispy. The last time I had bacon this food was in Portland, years ago. Certainly pricey but a great experience overall. read more

Mildred's has been on my bucket list for a while, especially with their instragammable pancakes! Opted to go here on an early weekday afternoon, and I would say it was busy, but not so busy to be waiting for a while. The interior is beautiful, with a stunning and bright decor that makes a perfect brunch spot. I ordered the famous pancakes, and also tried their buttermilk biscuit and scones. Also opted for the very unique Earl Grey hot chocolate. The pancakes were HUGE, and definitely deserved the hype. Melt in the mouth and delectable. The scones and biscuits were served warm with the most perfect salted butter and apple jam. And the drink was beautiful. Flowery notes of earl grey with a rich hot chocolate. Absolutely to die for. Definitely got way too much food, but do not regret my decisions. -1 star because the service was a bit rude, and could've been a lot nicer. Otherwise would come here again! read more

What more could you ask for? Tucked away in the Liberty Village are of Toronto this is a must stop if you have a group of friends that want to go out for an enjoyable afternoon brunch. I had a decaf cappuccino and "Veda's Choice" which is basically an Eggs Florentine (salmon substituted for pork) on a croissant, delicious. I also shared a Japanese style pancake which was fluffy and light with a tasty blueberry sauce/jam on top. Its great when. you can leave a restaurant with smiles. read more

Had been dying to come to Mildred's for a while & finally, on a bitterly cold morning, we made it. As expected, it was packed with people waiting outside even in the cold rain. We decided to find a nearby coffee shop while we waited to be called. When it was our turn, we practically sprinted over! The space is open, airy & was whimsically decorated with snowflakes wherever you looked for the holiday season. Total winter-wonderland vibe. Our waiter was lovely & made great suggestions. i decided to try their seasonal cocktail which a delicious spiced play on a Hotty Toddy. For the main, I did the Avocado Veda's choice, my guy did a simple egg dish & we absolutely HAD to order the famous "Mrs. Biederhof's Wild Blueberry Buttermilk Pancakes" which were almost as good to eat as they were impressive to look at. While I can't say anything really wowed me, all together I had a nice brunch & would happily come back next time I'm in town. read more

Absolutely delicious! Known for having long lines (which is true)! But we got there early (10am on a sun) to grab a table just before a wait started. I ordered a single blueberry pancake and 2 scones - so I could try more! The single pancake still filled me up and I ended up taking the scones to go, but all delicious. The pancakes are a must! And the scones were freshly made and they tasted great. The waitress was kind and assisted with any accommodations to our meal as needed. She also was super friendly and welcoming. The space is designed perfectly for brunch and has a great atmosphere. read more

Great service. Very nice staff. Wonderful vibe. Highly recommend this place for brunch.

Wellllll worth a visit. Make a reservation to guarantee a spot. We went on a Friday morning, and the place was open, airy, and bright. You have options to sit inside or outside (we sat inside). Blueberry pancakes- the pancakes were good. Sturdy, thick, and almost cakey. They weren't fluffy or light; not that type of pancake, but still very good. The blueberry on it is what make sit worthwhile. You don't have to get a stack of 3. You can get one as well. The Shak- a great one. Everything from the bread to the eggs to the sauce was fantastic. Service wasn't top notch, but overall, not enough to ding them a star. When I say, 'not top notch', it just means we had to flag down the waiter for everything. Then, he was very accommodating to our requests. read more

The hype is real! We went to Mildred's at 11am on a Saturday and were seated immediately. The blueberry buttermilk pancakes were so fluffy, delicious and warm. The maple syrup tasted so good and aromatic, while the whipped cream was so light. The blueberry compote was incredible. Vedra's choice was also very good with runny yolk in a buttery croissant alongside acidic salad. We got smoked salmon with it and it was delicious. The ambience was quite nice with a good airflow and not too overcrowded. Highly recommend! read more

Had this on my list to try for their blueberry pancakes. There was a bit of a line when we came 10 min after opening on Sunday but it moved fairly quickly. There seemed to be a 10k race nearby so lots of people from that event came after. Once we were seated it took about 30 min to get our food. Lots of food was getting put out from the kitchen but would need to get grouped and told to the servers. I got a matcha latte that was too foamy at the top with a grainy strong matcha taste. The hot matcha below was a okay matcha flavor. We of course tried the blueberry pancake stack. I though they were pretty soft, a little thick and dry but good when all mixed with whip cream, maple syrup, and blueberry. But I expected the pancakes to be softer, less dry and more tasty on its own. The blueberry compote was very soft and melts in your mouth. I think the 3 stack was a bit much so just trying one piece as a side would be enough. The smoked rosemary bacon on the side was delicious. It was flavorful, had a slight crisp and was not too oily. The veda's choice had a crispy and flaky croissant. It paired well with the smoked salmon and poached egg and wasn't too saucy. It also came with a good mixed salad on the side and was good with the bacon. The servers were friendly and overall enjoyed the food. read more

Have had this spot pinned on my brunch list for a while because of its renowned pancakes, and finally had the chance to swing by while in the neighborhood. It's easy to miss from the outside, but once you step in, the place is surprisingly spacious with an eclectic Ins vibe. Their menu offerings are quite creative. Tried the Eggs Benedict with Pulled Pork on Scone, their daily special and it exceeded expectations. The pulled pork was packed with flavor, perfectly complemented by the buttered scone and poached egg, making each bite a delightful explosion of taste. Also had the Eats, Shoots + Leaves salad - a mix of spring greens, kale, radish, pumpkin and sunflower seeds, tossed in lemon vinaigrette and olive oil. It hit the mark, although I could've requested a lighter hand on the oil. Of course, we tried their Blueberry Pancakes, and they lived up to the hype, though the amount of butter was pretty generous, both in the pancake itself and on the plate (initially I thought it was syrup). While I wouldn't say it's a must-order, it was definitely worth a try. The pear ginger juice was a bit too sweet for my liking. Service-wise, no complaints. Overall, if you find yourself in the area, it's definitely worth popping in for a taste.

Came in for lunch but we had to try the pancake. I'm embarrassed to say this is my first time here. Every time I came, it was so busy and I just can't wait in line for lunch anymore. Pancake lived up to the hype. Was excellent. We just ordered one to split as a sort of appetizer. Nice and warm and fluffy. Then I ordered the eggs Monty. Sort of like a quesadilla filled with cheese and black beans then topped with a couple of sunny side eggs with a side of quac and sour cream. Excellent combination. Added the grapefruit juice with ginger and I was good to go. Service was excellent. The place is beautiful. read more
