One of the best traditional diners in Toronto. Breakfast special in particular is delicious and of great value.Cash only - tip generously!

Hello dear diner owners. I am giving you 5 stars just because of the warm stories I read about you online. It seems you have done great for yourself and survived the recent events that hit manny business owners. I will be planning to indulge in a few items on your menu and can't wait to be wowed like others before me.Hopefully I will dine with you as soon as I recover from this bloody covid virus since I will need a nice hearty meal to get me back on my feet. ?

Great diner for reliable/traditional breakfast food!No non-dairy options for coffee/tea, as expected. But the portions are generous.The owner is also hilarious and makes you feel right at home.It is cash only, but there’s an ABM on site.Will definitely come back :)

Red alert - - Cash ONLY! - - - this place is a local staple for breakfasts and lunches - busy on the weekends. Walk ins only - no reservations - booths mostly (limited to 4 people) with some old school stools at the bar/counter. The owner/manager is a really friendly, engaging, talkative fellow with lots to say about everything! Standard breakfst stuff - no surprises - get the Number Two - eggs, breakfast meats, home fries and toast. Best diner coffee around! This is our go-to place for breakfast!

Excellent!!! Food was delicious, service was excellent! Will definitely come back!! We went there for breakfast but there is lunch and dinner options as well! The late breakfast option is really good and everyone very friendly

Me and my friend came by for lunch and there was really great and attentive service. Food is also very good! Terry served us and was such a fun and kind server! Definitely recommend!

Great old school diner with standard diner fair. Hot plates, burgers and sandwiches. Been there over 50 years. Daily specials and such.

The best diner in town. Everything is old school, and awesome, but the Hollywood sandwich, man. Have that. Chicken salad with bacon. OMG.

What can you say about a Diner that serves good quality food, friendly humorous bite your tongue service and won't bend to big debit/credit charges to businesses by having cash only for payment? Awesome! That's what. I'm surprised more places don't follow suit.And gawd help you if you show up with a bunch of crumpled up bills. Ensure you don't meet with the wrath of Khan by ironing those notes. Nice and neat now.Clean 50's Diner with booths and counter seating.My steak was not only perfectly cooked at medium rare, a challenge for any breakfast steak but perfectly seasoned as well. Apparently a serious obstacle for other Diners in the area.The coffee is good and refills will come your way.Covid protocols in place and followed.

A hidden gem! Hop into this place amd take a travel back to the 70s when this kind of diner was prevalent. The food was quick and delicious, the staff, hilarious and social, cracking jokes and laughing. Leave your hipster avocado and toast at home, this is the real deal here, bacon, eggs, delicious homefries and real butter on the toast. Why wouldnt you come and eat here!
