    Wonderful menu and great coffee!!! Beautiful view right on the river. I had the ham and Swiss croissant be sure and get the hashbrowns, the fruit was not that great though

    The delicious Pecan Butter Tarts and a view of the river!

    The Early Bird - best avocado toast i've ever had!

    This is one of the cutest brunch/breakfast spots I have ever been to! The vibe is completely…read moreunmatched, from the retro vinyl chairs to the american traditional tattoo art taped all over the tables and walls - this is the spot you need to bring your girl on a breakfast date! The menu was extensive, with lots of options and the service was super nice - really accommodating and kept on checking in on us to make sure all was good, our coffees were topped and our stomachs were happy. Apparently the eggs benny here is absolutely fire and a must try. Their smoked bacon is also thick and cooked just right - as someone who doesn't even touch pork most of the time, I would say I have to agree! It was thick cut too, if that's your thanggg. I went with the avocado toast because I am a basic millennial and when it came, it was not what i expected at all! Garnished with crispy onions and green onions (which usually i am not a fan of at all), it truly elevated the flavour and taste of the entire thing. The toast did not get soggy and I absolutely loved it! Usually I am all for a basic bitch avo toast with some sesame seeds, salt and pepper but this was something I did not expect at all and I was pleasantly surprised! Overall, had a really enjoyable time here with some great company and I will 100% come back!

    I had high hopes for this place. We waited outside for a few like it says, a young man brought us…read morein and then told us to wait, another waitress awkwardly approached us to tell us to wait outside, I said he told us to wait a moment while he double checked for a table, she was kind of stunned and idk it was just such a weird interaction. We sat patiently with water for 15-20 mins until someone said they'd be with us soon. Iced latte was just foam and milk and no ice since it sat for a while before being brought to the table, the avocado toast had so much spread on it the bread was soggy and not very edible. Pancake and the Elvis 10/10! No one came to check on us, we tried to grab someone's attn and after a bit our waitress stopped by, cleared our table, I asked for more syrup and it was ice cold when delivered to the table, but hey, I guess it happens. This review is such a Karen review but damn, everyone hyped early bird up and it just shit the bed with the awkward/lack of customer service, it felt like they didn't want us there.

    2nd time here and I got the Burger, Fries and Beer Special again ($20). I tried the Riot beer -…read moreeasy to drink. The burger was Brie, Bacon, and caramelized onion. It was dry - well done and no sauce. I added raspberry jelly - it seemed right. They didn't ask how I wanted the burger cooked - I wonder if that's not an option in Canada. Our group of 9 was seated in the back room. Love the art by Red George. Next time I visit I'm getting the Texas burger - bring on the gravy!

    3 stars is being generous, but seeing an overworked staff that is shorthanded as well, I'm giving…read morethem the benefit of the doubt. You are greeted when you walk in and told to go find a seat. You find one, and it there is no menu or other greeting. Our server finally came, took our drink and food order. The soup and salad came before our drinks. The Jalapeño cheddar soup was very spicy, which would have been fine, but it should have had more cream or cheese. It was slightly separated. I needed a drink, but I didn't get one for a bit, so I choked a couple of times. The schnitzel was good - not unreal, but good. Liked the mashed potatoes and gravy. A few of the green beans were overcooked. My wife had fish and chips. I guess tarter sauce only comes if asked for, which we had to. She liked it ok, thought the fries were good. I had some compassion on our server when I realized she was basically waiting on the whole restaurant - 2 large rooms. She was a little short, but not rude, and I understood why. She was working very hard, and we appreciated it. The food did come out quickly, so kudos to the cooks. The checkout was a mess, too. 3 teens trying to handle the gas station, convenience store, and restaurant. It's kind of a disorganized mess. At least they were friendly.
