    First of all, do not come here if you don't like seafood. There's not much on the menu (at least when I went) that doesn't include some sort of seafood. Food quality was decent. Not bad at all, just nothing to write home about either. Food selection itself was sort of limited. As far as the portions went, maybe it was just what I ordered, but for the price the items were listed at, I definitely expected more. Overall, so-so experience here, although it does have a nice dinner feel inside.

    Home fries, scrambled eggs, hash & fresh fruit

    I went in with my family on a Monday morning - great customer service, very fast service. Our server was very nice and super attentive. This is a great location for families and large groups. The pricing is also fairly reasonable. In regards to the food taste, it was good but was lacking something - can't exactly figure out what. I plan on trying out other items on the menu. But again, amazing service and very family oriented! Would visit again

    Awesome breakfast!

    Went here inbetween classes. Wasnt bad for the price, but not the greatest. I found the food on the greasy side. I ordered a ham and cheese omelette with a side of hollandaise sauce. Toast was burnt and hollandaise sauce look liked it had been a couple days old. The services wasn't the greatest either. The place wasn't busy at all. Literally me and 3 other tables and there were 2 waitresses. Never checked on me till the end. When I complained about the toast her reply was oh you should have tried to get my attention more. Are you kidding me? When you standing by the bar with your back to customers how would you like us to? Throw a cup at your head? I wasn't impressed. If you want low prices food and don't mind crappy service this is the place for you. As for me I will be finding a new place.

    After living in Brampton for some time now, I think I have scouted out most of the breakfast places in the area. After using my trusty Yelp app I happened upon John's Family Restaurant. I remember a place called John's Family Restaurant up in the Caledon area. This happens to be the same place. Located in a strip mall in its own stand alone building, from what I remember used to be a fast food restaurant. The decor is upscale and casual, tables and booths with banquets fill the restaurant along with a small bar with seating as well. We sat ourselves and were quickly attended to. The service from first impressions is quite good, our server was friendly and approachable. The menu here varies from breakfast/lunch to dinner and it is quite different between both. On the breakfast menu there is the usual fare of breakfast items (french toast, eggs, bacon etc) and even some light lunch items. I did get to take a look at the dinner menu which varied from NY strip-loin to varied pastas and some excellent Greek/Mediterranean items. Going off book and ordering something different for breakfast is not my wife's thing. Its always a BLT with fries, but the description for the meatball sandwich was too good to resist for my wife. Homemade meatballs and sauce with melted pizza mozzarella on a toasted bun sounded awesome. I ordered something called the "The French Connection" a very unassuming item...bacon eggs sausage and french toast. The service here is quite good, just like at the beginning. Every time I needed something our server was in easy reach. Our food arrived in a timely manner, considering how busy the restaurant got while we were there. My wife's food came first and it looked amazing, our friend ordered a Greek burger which also looked delicious. My order came out next....Yikes!! Two full plates of food!! It looked like a full order of French toast and my order of eggs, bacon, homefries and sausage with a bowl of fruit to top it all off!! The food was excellent and the portion sizes are quite good. If your in the north part of Brampton and your looking for a great spot for breakfast, lunch or dinner..check out John's Family Restaurant...you won't be disappointed...5 stars

    So, upon seeing where this place is located, Lee and I got in an argument for most of the length of our wait (It was very busy on a Sunday!) as to what the original building this place is located was. ... it was a Wendy's. But other than a few little hints of paint on the doors and the ghost of a drive-through, you can't really tell. It's been redone to be very nice, with a clean and simple look. Once we were seated, it was time to look over the menu. Lee, ever being the sucker for French Toast, decided to go with The French Connection, which ended up being a truckload of food. Too much food, Lee complained a little. For only $12 he got 3 eggs, a pile of bacon, a few sausages, a pile of potatoes, AND French toast. I think he would have been happy paying the same price for half the food, but he did still finish it. I made sort of a similar mistake. Their benny comes in a small and a large, and I really should have gotten the small. The large was three bennys, with great peameal, nicely cooked eggs, and delicious hollandaise, with fruit as well. Service was friendly, coffee was delicious, and overall it was a great place. I would definitely return!

    The Hercules Breakfast. Sausage, bacon, peameal bacon, eggs, taters. Awesomeness.

    First asked foremost, for there customer services, if I could give a 6 outta 5 I would. The team works like a team. Was a refreshing change. There ambiance is another great feature. Clean modern dark. Was quite busy for a Thurs at 11am. But after I tried the food, I wasn't surprised at all. I had the Hercules Breakfast with sausages, eggs, real thick cut bacon, peameal bacon, hash, fruit and toast. Everything was done perfectly. For the first time the toast was actually toasty. With a minimal out of butter. The smoked salmon eggs Benedict was delicious. I'd been craving smoked salmon for a couple days. This was a nice way to curb that. Also I gotta mention. The coffee. Dark and toasty. So so nice. Def a place to visit!

    the Hercules breakfast and the Morning glory breakfast.. but I forgot to take a pic of the two pancakes

    tasty food for sure. it's a fairly new restaurant. I like that it offers brunch as well not only breakfast. the restaurant has lots of seating tables and a sitting bar. a few reasons why I gave this restaurant a 4 star; the temperature inside is awfully warm. no music playing only a TV set on news.. (was quite distracting when the news is playing a siren) service was pleasant but slow. accent wall with random pictures and two chalk boards.. I didn't understand what that was about. I'll be honest though I will come back! definitely a family restaurant. menu has a wide variety of items and pricing is reasonable. lots of parking available as well. method of payment accepted, plastic and good old cash.

    I'm one of those people for second chances, because sometimes restaurants have off days. This was that day. It was a friendly atmosphere, the waitress was nice. I came with a friend, I had the feta and spinach eggs Benedict, she had the California Benedict. I tried both, and preferred the Feta and Spinach, the ham was perhaps to big for the Benedict. I want to try a few other things on the menu, so I'll be going back.

    I can't believe they charge $17 for 6 small scallops, no sides. Should have just gone to Popeyes

    IHOP Brampton location. Walked in here because everyone loves good pancakes, and I've yet to go…read moresomewhere with pancakes like theirs. The service was fast and my server was friendly, but let's talk about the inside. Dirty restaurant, like it had never been cleaned the whole day, and the temperature inside was unbelievably cold. The door was broken, so all the cold air came inside. Not okay. But the food was fantastic! I guess you can't have it all!

    A solid 'good' 3 stars. I'm actually not a huge fan of pancakes or waffles being served with…read moresuper-sweet pre-made sauces (I'll more enjoy house-made, berry sauces from scratch), so IHOP wasn't a big draw for me in spite of being near me and only the only in the GTA. Otherwise, you can get pancakes and other breakfast items at countless other places. But my kids wanted to check it out so I finally went a couple separate times. One huge plus is that they have a 'kids eat free' (off the kids menu) in the evenings. About a month ago, it just required a full meal purchase. Unfortunately since then, it is now only available if ordering from the 'entree' menu which isn't even breakfast items. The pancakes and all the staples are fine. Nothing exceptional, but still pretty good. I actually thought the southwest scrambled I had was pretty good. Nothing I would go out of my way to recommend, but a little better than I expected. I would be a bit more motivated to return if the 'kids eat free' only required another purchase for a full meal. Now that it has to come from the entree menu, I'm not as sure I'll be rushing back.
