Mildred's Temple Kitchen is one of those classic Toronto brunch spots in Liberty Village…read more 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.

It's been three years since I've last been in Toronto and thanks to Yelp, I was able to have my…read morefirst ever breakfast at Stacked Pancake & Breakfast the other day. This place looks like a fairly typical breakfast spot, offering a good amount of seating, large menus for both breakfast and Lunch, and of course, a ton of different pancake options! I'm usually not someone who orders temporary menu items or specials, but the second I saw the S'More Toffee Lava Pancakes I almost had a heart attack, so of course, I ordered the stupid pancakes to avoid such an problem. The food didn't take too long to come out, and they looked even better in person than they did in the menu. Maybe I'm just a little over enthusiastic about these pancakes, but I can pretty confidently say these may of been the best pancakes I've ever had. They were big, fluffy, and this plate did not skimp on the toppings at all. Overall, Stacked Pancake & Breakfast has definitely become a go-to spot for me when returning to Toronto. The food here was phenomenal and even though it took us almost 30 minutes for someone to give us a bill and let us pay, the pancakes were too good for me to get hung up on that. If you need some breakfast in the Queen/Spadina area, this is the place to go!

Took some time for the food to arrived, believe it's the chicken. Very fluffy and light pancakes. Loved the maple butter from the chicken and waffles. The maple cream on the pancakes had a lighter maple taste. I'd recommend the maple butter over the cream. Staff was attentive and friendly.

This place is a must visit if you happen to be in Niagara Falls on the Canadian side…read more The food here is everything you want from an awesome break house. The creative way you can order your pancakes is limitless. I had the Stacked - 2 eggs cooked any way you want them,I ordered over medium which is hard to do and they came out perfect, hash browns, 2 bacon strips, 2 sausage links, with 2 incredible pancakes. I pluses up my pancakes with Nutella and bananas for $1.99 and that was well worth it! The service was great and friendly . Fast efficient team service model that worked perfectly. Our food was delivered hot and our coffee cups were never empty.

We went to this spot right when they opened around 8 AM for breakfast. It wasn't too busy since…read morethey had just opened, but there were still like 2-3 tables taken already. This spot is small but sooo cute. It has a cozy little diner vibe with cute photos and decor on the walls, and they did a really good job using the space they have. Everything felt clean, well maintained, and cozy. It definitely got busier as the morning went on though. Around an hour or hour and a half later when we were leaving, basically all the tables were filling up and there were people waiting for seats too. I can honestly see why because the food was really good. I do think it would be nice if they had a bit more seating because it seems like it gets packed really quickly and I can imagine they lose some customers because of the wait. The service was honestly amazing. Our server was sooo sweet and made really good conversation with us. He recommended dishes, helped us pick drinks, and even made the coffee exactly to my liking which I appreciated. You could tell he genuinely enjoyed his job and was really kind the whole time. I usually don't go for Vietnamese coffee, but the server recommended it and I actually loved it. It was creamy, slightly sweet, and really different from regular coffee in a good way. Definitely recommend trying it if you want something different. For food, we got the breakfast sandwiches which came with fries, and we upgraded them to truffle fries which were delicious. We also got a side salad which was really fresh and yummy too. The sandwich itself was sooo good. The bun tasted buttery and fresh, everything was well put together, and it honestly felt like a really balanced meal. It was pretty filling too, I couldn't even finish all of mine. Overall, loved this spot and I'd definitely go back again. Such good vibes, really kind service, and amazing breakfast.

Overall, The Arch Cafe is the best coffee place in Toronto.

I'd been hearing about how superb Emma's Country Kitchen is for the better part of a decade and yet…read morewe only just recently made the trek to check it out. The place was more than worth the wait, as it turns out. And it's still doing extremely well, given how busy it was and how long we had to wait for a table (almost a full half hour!) We knew going in that we had to try a few of the joint's most famous dishes, the Cinnamon Bun Pancakes, the Breakwich, and Emma's BLT. It was clearly way, way too much food but everything was so good that I had zero regrets. In particular, those pancakes are as flavorful and scrumptious as I would've hoped. The two savory sandwiches fared just as well, and it was clear that they had been assembled with a tremendous amount of care. The busy atmosphere was fun, and our server was friendly and helpful. Yep, I can see why Emma's has managed to stick around all these years.

It had been a while since my last visit, and I was reminded right away why this place stands out…read more The service is incredibly warm and personable--something you don't often come across in Toronto. The biscuits were just average for my taste, but the home fries were excellent. The eggs Benedict could have used a bit more hollandaise--something I'm sure they would have happily provided if I'd asked, but I didn't. The highlight of the breakfast was the special menu collaboration with Sanagan Meat Locker. The savory cornbread pancakes were outstanding--served hot with crispy edges, layered with pimento cheese, and topped with butter and honey. Paired with the blueberry sausage from Sanagan, it was an unforgettable combination. I really loved this collaboration with Emma--it was creative, comforting, and absolutely delicious.

On my trip to Japan, one of my to do was get the fluffy pancakes. Unfortunately we ran out of time,…read moreso when I was in Toronto it was highly recommended for me to try these fluffy Japanese style pancakes. Were they must have? No, but were they good? Yes. I was expecting a lot more, at the end of the day they are just super fluffy pancakes, but pancakes none the less. The toppings makes it different and here the best one was the creme brûlée option. The other two were ok and their drinks were average. It does take a long time for them to come out as they are made fresh so expect a wait.

I think these are some of the best fluffy Japanese pancakes in the city! I've been coming here…read moresince my undergrad days, and it's just as good as I remember! The pancakes are soft, and incredibly fluffy (reminds me of Uncle Tetsu's cheesecake). Tons of diverse and fun toppings, from sweet to savory, although when we came they didn't have matcha flavour :( The space is rather small but is still very cosy. The service was quick and efficient and the staff were nice, so I have no complaints on my end and it deserves to be my solid fave in the Annex.

The experience here was not like any restaurant I've ever been to especially in the states. The staff were so friendly and kind. They made us feel like we were apart of the family. Our server kept saying she was so happy we found their restaurant. So happy we came to visit. She was so sweet. Let's talk food. DELICIOUS!!! Everything is made fresh. They give a pretty large portion I feel everything is shareable. I do not like turkey bacon at all. I don't know why they did to this turkey bacon or if it was because we were in Canada. I can't stop thinking about it or the blueberry pancakes. When we come back to Toronto we will definitely stop back by. Good service, a nice family environment, and good food is hard to come by. This place definitely has it all.

I'll be back just for this. Highly recommended! We also ordered a Double Smash Burger ($16.95) and NEW Biscoff Milkshake ($9.95). Both were very impressive and flavourful. The owner was there and super friendly. I could tell why there are so many good reviews for this restaurant. Absolutely satisfying dinner experience here. Willing to come back next time :)

This is our second time at an OPH (two different locations) and we have yet to be disappointed…read more Our service was fabulous. She was attentive, friendly, and quick. The atmosphere was very diner like and we enjoyed the good warm coffee while we waited for our delicious meal! So to the food aspect: my partner got the Irish Omelette which had broccoli, corn beef hash, spinach, pepper jack cheese (his choice and we both agree it was a win). The omelette sounded overwhelming to me, but I am thankful my partner ordered it because it was good! He also ordered the English muffin. Which was also AMAZING! Now onto the western omelette, it was also wonderful. Eggs fluffy, a good amount of cheese (I picked cheddar). Everything was perfect. But the star of the show was my side of French toast. They bake the bread there for the French toast. It was cooked to perfection and the perfect amount of sweet. One slice was all I needed (...to break my diet ) but dang was it worth it.

I just can't get past what I ordered and seen others partake in versus what I got. The a la carte eggs and bacon were also very good. Eggs cooked as ordered and bacon was thick sliced and well done NOT burnt. Also ordered Strawberry Pancakes and there were NO Strawberries inside, they were plain and provided a side of strawberries to use as a topping which is not what I ordered. I'd go back but they definitely owe me an Apple Pancake and Strawberry Pancakes done correctly on the house.
