Pretty much one of my favourite spots on Main Street. I love all their foods. The steak is so good as well as the Burgers and Salads. They got a ton of delicious beers on tab. read more

Decent brunch and the huevos rancheros are one of the only healthier ones around, if you order easy on the cheese.

In terms of location, seating, and food, Caffe Barney is totally fine by me. But I have never had worse service than I did last night. The server was incredibly rude the whole time! I felt so uncomfortable because I think maybe she thought she was funny, but it was so awkward! I've never had a server legitimately swear at people as a joke?? And when she screwed up and punched in the wrong amount on the machine, she berated my friend for not noticing! He offered to pay the missing amount, which was a measly $6.90 any way, and then she called him out for only leaving $1 tip in front of everyone! First of all, he'd already tipped on the other bill, so she had already received a tip, and secondly $1 tip on a $6.90 bill is pretty normal. We were finishing our beers and it had just turned 1 o'clock, and quite frankly I was practically chugging my beer just so I could leave. She walks out from the back and announces, "It's 1 o'clock so get out because you're the only fucking reason I'm here!" It was the absolute strangest, most uncomfortable dining experience of my life. My friends and I continued to discuss how bizarre and awful the night had been because of that server. Thankfully, restaurants are a dime a dozen on Main Street, so I don't need to ever go back. read more

Middle of the road brunch fare at a reasonable price in Mount Pleasant. The food is good, prices are reasonable. I had the bacon omelette which was tasty, and it was served with toast and jam and fried potatoes. The potatoes seemed a little underdone and lacked flavour, but the toast and jam was yum-o. The place is small but we didn't wait long for a table. Seems like most patrons are there for cocktails and craft beer, too. It was pretty loud for a small space. Would I return? Probably, but after trying a couple other joints in the neighbourhood first. This place had the shortest wait. read more

Truly the worst eggs I've had in my life. And I've had a lot of eggs. My rubbery, overcooked omelette sitting in a pool of orange grease was unworthy of the smoked salmon it was stuffed with. I think the potatoes were previously frozen, they had a funny after-taste and had not been salted or seasoned. They did have good service which is the only reason why I've given them two stars but unless you really are stuck, I'd pass on trying to eat here. read more

Just came for a really quick drink while killing some time, so I guess I don't have much to write about. The prices were reasonable and my Spanish coffee tasted great. read more

Came by as a rendezvous point for post-rockstar night - you know, a place to reassemble the troops and debrief while getting some soothing grease in your stomach. We showed up at 1500 - so I guess you can call it Sunday 'lunner'. We were told they were closing at 4PM (noticed later their door sign said 3:30PM was closing time) for their staff XMas party. Crud - I hate eating against a clock - but it was too late to set a new rally point. So we hesitantly sat down and ordered a coffee and their B.E.L.T.C.H. sandwich for about $10. I can't figure out what the last 'H' was for... but it was bacon, egg, lettuce, tomato and cheddar on toast. I don't remember tasting... ham? I don't know. It was a good sammich and fries were good as well. Sufficiently greasy and big to quell an alcohol-ravaged stomach - but not overly so. Tablemates enjoyed their banana pancakes and eggs bennie as well. And service was fast as stragglers were linking back up with the platoon and rang in last minute orders. Joint has a solid playlist clearly in forefront but just quiet enough for some catch-up without yelling. Despite the tight closing time, staff was really friendly and attentive - the server kept coming by with coffee re-ups - the coffee was typical weak, diner coffee - but it kept coming. The waitress never rushed us and didn't even give off slight tells of annoyance or shoo us. Nice - she was aware that we were well aware of the time and didn't feel need to remind us incessantly. By 1600, bill was paid and the troops were out the door and Oscar-Mike. Decent breakfast/brunch/lunch/lunner joint for some hot chow, constant coffee refills and decent music. Buddy declared it his favourite breakfast joint in the area. I say, good defensible position for a central rally point. And looks like it turns into a decent bar at night. Recon completed and we are greenlight for insertion - weapons hot, gentlemen. Juliet-Charlie out. read more

Not bad for a drink & a bite to eat. Average. Service too rushed with well over half empty seats. Not as cozy as Granville location, which is all around better. read more

Caffe Barney has the best fries and burgers. The sister store of the Granville original that is famous for brunches and cheap ceasars, this location also serves up innovative vegetarian dishes, like the stacked eggplant and tofu tower. I like the ambiance and decor, dark wood beam and hardwood floors, lots of mirrors and a large window space that opens to a patio to hipster watch. The food and service are both good. It's a cool place to hang, so go check it. read more

I would give this place 3.5 stars. My friends and I came here one night after playing pool down the street. We were pretty much dying for a beer or something. It was a really nice place. Something I expect to be located on Main or even on Commerical drive. They had a small patio outside that maybe fit about a few tables. Overall, the place looks pretty good. Our server came by a few times to check up on us. Gave us what we ordered. We had no complaints asides from when we asked whats on tap or beers that they had she pointed to a wall of them (a bit overwhelmed in my perspective with what they had to offer) and we had to stand up and walk around. This was only because we were seated at the first booth closest to the door and you there is another wall that blocks our view. I noticed they carried a lot of local beers from the local brewery like parallel 49 brewery. I thought that was pretty cool. I'm all about supporting the locals the best I can. We ordered nachos and I felt like they could have put a bit more nachos on the plate than the toppings. The toppings were a bit overwhelming. Overall, not a bad place to try out. I would recommend it to others to try out and I myself will probably come by again to try out other beers. read more

Good food, came here for a second meal because Amanda's portion at Burdock cafe was way too small. Friendly service and nice place to spend some time read more

I love this spot. They serve breakfast/brunch until 4pm, which is ideal for those a little slower to get moving such as myself. I've been to Barney's about half a dozen times and have always been able to grab a table without waiting. I was surprised to read that other people had poor experiences with the waitstaff. In my experience the staff is genuinely pleasant and attentive without being in-your-face or corny. I'm a fan of the Cajun & Traditional Bennys, which is all goes well is the most difficult decision I will make that day. Hot sauce and ketchup on the table is a huge plus. read more

I really like it there. The food, the people, the music, the fact that I don't remember how I got home after...? It's all good.

The wait takes forever!! But it's an okay place for brunch. The hash browns can be too big sometimes. Food can be bland at times. It's always 50/50 when I go. read more

Had a really good pulled pork quesadilla with bbq sauce. Beer selection was good, not amazing, but perfectly usable. Atmosphere is a little loud, but nothing crazy. The staff is great. Didn't think I was going to stay as long as I did. Would come back again. read more

I recently went there for breakfast with my wife and it was an amazing breakfast. They had many unique items that were quite tasty. I had the breakfast burrito and thought it was one of the best burritos I have had. My wife had the omelette and she really loved it too. So great food there. read more

One of my go-to breakfast/brunch places. The Eggzotic Benny is delish. Food is always good, service fast and friendly.

Friendly, efficient staff. Delicious Salmon Benny. Happy to modify menu items to customers needs. Gave me a free milk last Saturday morning. This is going to be one of my regular breakfast places within walking distance. read more

Had an unusual weekday morning free and decided to have a nice breakfast somewhere along Main Street with my doggie. I drove past a few places that I didn't know (Joe's Grill, Indulge) and decided to go somewhere I have been before and not take any chances. I was wrong to do so. I was in the mood for bacon, eggs, hashbrowns, etc. The "standard" if you will. The kind that you can get at Bon's for $2.99 or some such. So, I headed here, parked my dog on the patio and sat down. Straight away, I wasn't impressed with the service. I was the only one there and the server was very un-smiling, not very friendly and very matter-of-fact. She brought me a coffee and it looked promising (had almost a crema on top!), so I asked her if they always use an espresso machine for their coffees and she said "Not normally, you're lucky". I did feel lucky...until I tasted it --- it was that horrible weak, coffee-flavored-hot water, that just tastes like HOT. Do you know what I mean? At any rate, I was happy to received my breakfast...until I saw it. It was extremely unappealing. The bacon was WAY over cooked to the point where it cracks and breaks and is not bendable...very little flavor when it's cooked like that. The eggs were scrambled and on the orange side, so that was positive, because it can indicate that they are free range. But the hashbrowns, YUCK! They were completely white, no grill marks, all puffy from being DEEP fried, rather than PAN fried (like, even at Bon's!), and just looked completely unappetizing. I could see that they sprinkled that horrible all-seasoning or whatever that crap is on it, but they were completely flavorless. If on the show, I would CHOP this cook. I was contemplating whether or not to say anything to the server when she came to check on my meal, but she never did. I was completely finished when she arrived to ask and by then I already started to write this review and also she had let me my dog sneak on the patio and I was grateful for that. Despite the "meh" service and crap food, I tipped 20%, since my bill was only $10 (by the way, she started being super nice when it came to tip-time). But, I was really disappointed overall. In short, if you are looking for a standard fry up, head on over to Bon's and spend $7 less for WAY a more tasty and a better prepared breakfast. I'm sure this place is fine for lunch and dinner, but I would avoid it for breakfast. Those hashbrowns were brutal. In a city like this, they should know better! read more

A great find. Doesnt look like much on the outside but consistently excellent food and service within. The seafood chowder is especially delicious. Great for brunch as well (huevos rancheros, omelets, and eghs benedict). Good craft beer selection. read more

Came here a few nights back for drinks. By far the best service I've seen in a long time. The waitress was super attentive and friendly and came by to check on our table and refill my water frequently even though I nursed one drink for a couple of hours. Will definitely come back here to try the food. read more

Barney's on Main killed it today as usual. Our server Briana was an absolute gem and the food was delicious! They have a great menu and everything is reasonably priced. It's our go-to spot and because we are usually hungover we desire a level of service that isn't always...shall I say...low maintenance. In other words, we need BIG waters and our caesars made just right. Briana was super efficient, friendly and made sure we got our extra hollandaise. Barney's has a great atmosphere and amazing staff! Thanks for the good times! read more

Drinks are decent and the service is nice... But I've been here twice and both times I ordered something with avocado and both times the avocado was brown and fermented! Ugh! So gross. read more

Queen aka robin was a phenomenal server who made us laugh throughout the entire Meal and graced us with prompt service and great food

I had a really terrible experience in this place today. We received awful service from an obviously unhappy server. We were spoken to so rudely that we all decided to leave immediately afterwards. The food was truly terrible and that one particular server has been rude to me on more than one occasion, but this was completely out of line. It's a wonder this location is still in business given that the server can't be bothered to treat customers decently...I feel like I've been inconveniencing her just by being there... WOW! Keep walking people, many better spots in this great area!!! read more

I hate this place. I ate there three times, and each time either myself or someone at my table had to complain about the food. One of those times, my friend had rotten avocado in her omelette, and the manager actually tried to argue with her that it wasn't rotten! Then, she tried to play it down that avocados weren't in season so it's more difficult to get a good one. For one thing, a quick google search will tell you that their prime growing season is late-winter and early spring (it was February). Also, don't make an excuse that your ingredients aren't very good!!! Finally, my last bad experience was when I stopped in for a quick 5 minute meeting with my boss, while he waited for another meeting to start. The server made some really terrible jokes about how I was the "fluffer" meeting, and then OFFERED ME to the two businessmen sitting next to us, in case they wanted to be "fluffed" as well. REALLY. I hate that place. read more

I had a problem with the middle aged woman as well. My Co workers and I are regulars who always tip. We go 1 or 2 times a week. She starts off by cramming 6 of us at a 4 person table. When we go to pull over another 2 person table she runs over and snaps "What do you think you're doing?" when we calmly explain to her she flips out and goes on a furious rant about how the place gets full and they always put 6 people at this 4 person table. She spoke to us in such a rude tone, it was incredibly inappropriate. I have never been lashed out at like this as a regular paying customer. I tried to reason with her, because the place was pretty empty and I've only seen it full a few times, and we are in and out in an hour but logic made her even crazier. It was super stressful. After I loudly complained about how she treated us and that it was still empty 30 mins later she ran over and pulled the table over and snapped that I can move if I wanted...wow.. What a horrible woman! She didn't even attempt to act like a normal human being. I will never eat here again and make sure my Co workers won't either..Her bad attitude is well known in my office. I also threw up that night, which I haven't in years, I can only speculate as to why. So be warned. On a positive note all the young waitress have always been lovely, it's too bad one bad apple had to spoil this place. read more

Wow sick waitress. Not sure what her issues. Are but was directed right at me my table. Get some help ASAP. I'll not bow down to your level. That's all I have to say about that. Crazy b$&@. read more

went there to order take-out. I never write reviews but feel that I want to warn people about the fish and chips. Once home I opened the box and right away I thought that it smelled odd. Not that it was food that had gone bad, but odd. My son said that he didn't smell anything so I went ahead and ate it to my great regret. I felt really sick that night and for 2 days afterward. Terrible taste of the oil and the fish. I also had cramps. I feel that maybe the oil was very old and there was something peculiar about the fish. I will never eat there again. read more

Terrible customer service, I will never be going back. The old server, Robin I believe, swears at her customers and not in a joking way. I left feeling terrible. The only reason my friends and I stayed was because the food had already come, and it wasn't even that good. read more

Good place to drink, good burgers maybe and fries. Not good food. There are tons of better places in the area. Had the tacos. Let me describe it for you; corn taco, cole slaw from a bag, salsa from a jar and steak from God knows where. Served with stale guacamole. The sour cream was yummy. No imagination, no effort. Avoid for food, have a beer or two instead. Friendly staff. They get a star. read more

Went for dinner on a Canuck's game night. Place was 2/3 full, but it seemed like the staff was giving some people grief they were taking up more seats than they should because they were all facing the screens! Ordered dinner, a vegetarian stir fry ($12 and too saucy!) and their Chorizo pasta ($14 and bland!). Not a whole lot to come back for in the food department but probably should have ordered a burger after reading the reviews... Maybe it's a drink place? Watched bartender pour small cocktails and the waitress comment on it - the three drinks were poured back into the tumbler, more booze added and back into the classes. Not sure aboutt a drinking place either... read more

I have mixed feelings about this place. I've been here twice and the first time was great. However this last time was pretty awful. I ordered the steak and it was basically just gristle. 1/4 of the steak was just not edible. I'm disappointed. The portion is good but if I'm getting a steak, that what's matters. Maybe I'll change my review the next time if they redeem themselves. That is if I go again. read more

Food....not so good. I had the Mac n cheese with pulled pork and my wife had the braised lamb quesadilla. Both were terrible. I've been to Barney's before and it was okay and I think I'd go back possibly but if so I would just stick to very difficult to screw up pub food like a burger. read more

Everything I've ate there as been good, egg Benedict is amazing. Great vibe as well. Love the 90s rap playlist I heard there one Saturday. Menu could be a bit better. Service could have been abit better read more

I love(d) the breaky's there but after trying to go back time and again and getting crap for service and holy crap attitude from the servers, I'm done. Won't return. Seems like if you are a friend you get great service but if they don't know you the service sucks. Food used to be good but it really is just thrown together on a plate with little or no conscious thought of presentation. Plenty of places to go for breakfast. The Barn just won't be on my list anymore. read more

Second Sunday in a row service was absolutely terrible . Begrudgingly sat , then forgotten about . Made to feel like we were imposing . Never going back again . read more

Great place to have brunch with friends. Servers are extremely friendly. Recommendations? Their soup and egg benny's.

worst restaurant and service i've had! !!super rude and unhappy waitress! !!!!! first of all she didn't seated us, i waived my hand to get someone take our order, oblivious we interrupt the waitress social around with her customer, she asked us "are you ladies in a hurry?! "at the end, i didn't see the bill on the table so i waive my hand to get bill. waitress came to me said "stop waiving you hand" and then left.....! while my friends was getting ready to leave, waitress put plate on the table with big noise ... guess not happy with our 5%......come on, what you expecting with this kind of services?!!!! would never ever recommend it to anyone or go back!!!! read more
