Busy little cafe in Elora…read more Street parking is easily found. You can bike or walk up to this spot. It is very hot in here as I'm not sure they have AC. Flies everywhere from the door opening and closing. You will be shewing them off your food. There is only one bathroom and the line gets quite long since people (read not patrons) come in to use this bathroom. They have many vegan options. There was a tofu bon mi and a tofu TLT sandwich. Both great, but don't come with anything. I also ordered a blueberry bar dessert and it was great. The lavender lemondade was a miss. Just yellow water. I will try them again for the plant based options.

If you are wondering if you should check this place out, just do it. Very adorable cafe with a…read morewonderful outdoor seating area. There is limited seating inside but the patio across is also theirs. Inside, the walls are covered in different art work, the bathroom is located on the second floor. They have several options for both food and drinks. We all opted in for different varieties of bagel sandwiches. Lavender latte was different but tasty. The service was quick, they bring the food to your table. Overall, all of us enjoyed our brunch here.

They have a lot of great options to try for breakfast, brunch, etc. The Belgian waffle has got to be one of the best waffles I've had in a long time. It was fluffy and the sugar melts in your mouth. Their seasoned home fries were a great pairing for this hollandaise deliciousness.

Great location and customer service…read more Scones: Decent. A little sweet (which I like), served with whipped cream and strawberry jam. Fruit: The fruit was the best part of all our meals here. It was so fresh and sweet, which I thought would be difficult to find outside of California! I also enjoyed it with cottage cheese, which is not so common at breakfast spots in California unfortunately. Tea: The tea is enjoyable but pretty average when compared to bougier tea spots like The Bruce in Stratford. It's not clear how long I should let it steep for for optimal flavor. I preferred the Winter Dream green tea, which was warm and cozy, slightly sweet. I also preferred the McCrae over the Boathouse blend. The Boathouse blend was a little basic for me, and the McCrae had a slight sweetness that I enjoyed. High Tea: Average - a good price and pleasant experience, especially if the weather is nice enough to eat outside (and catch a bald eagle flying by!). My favorite dessert was the carrot cake cupcake. Ice Cream: Yes, ice cream and tea is definitely a good idea! The banana cream pie tastes like your classic Runts banana flavor (the original banana that got wiped out) and the black cherry has plenty of big cherry pieces. Great servings, and we loved that they served them in reusable bowls instead of disposable ones. Would definitely come again!

A very charming space overlooking the water. The Boathouse is located on 116 Gordon St in Guelph…read more There is parking available right along the paved walkway (angle parking only). If you follow the route, it leads to another bigger parking lot. Parking is free! Reservations are highly recommended. My guest and I made a reservation for two for 1:30pm. It was very busy when we walked in. We got a table right by the door. There were artwork and paintings hung all around the cafe - it was cute. I ordered an afternoon tea set, as well as an extra breakfast burrito for my guest and I to share. There is a tea menu to look at all the various options they have. It was nice to see that they had many options to choose. Our set came with mini sandwiches, scones and dessert and fruits. I would definitely come back to visit - it would be nice to come in the summer and book a table out on their patio.

My friends ordered the Pacific Eggs Benny, also very tasty! Service was very attentive and speedy.

Overall, we will definitely come back if we go Waterloo again.

Had the Chicken Souvlaki Dinner. Came with a side Greek salad (which was huge, large enough for two), meal came with a full chicken skewer, roasted potatoes & rice. The food was delicious, moist potatoes, tender chicken & was nice & hot with a side of tzatziki. Very tasty. Didn't think I'd eat the whole meal but I did! This is a real family restaurant with a casual ambiance & a fair amount of seating. The service was very fast & our server was very friendly. This is definitely a do-over!

Johns restaurant used to be a great place to go for breakfast and dinner. Now it is not. I have not…read morereturned in over a few years because they do not have a menu for older customers - seniors, and their food portions are huge but that doesn't mean quality. I find most of the waitress staff over the past few years to be very snippy and it feels like the customer has to cater to their needs other than the opposite. The manager Vicky is only there to take your offer and money and never returns to ask how your meal is or just to ask if you need anything else. She turns on the charm when it is time for the tip. We have had a few incidents with Vicky that I don't want to go into. This can really turn a customer off from going for a nice breakfast or night out. Unfortunately the amount of family restaurants that are not Indian or cultural in Brampton are few and far between. If Johns read these reviews and sorted things out they could be packed for breakfasts and dinner like they used to be in the past.
