    Y'all ain't even ready to hear what I had for breakfast this morning: an eggs benny sandwich with…read moreHollandaise dipping sauce and a shredded potato pancake. YEAH. I said it. It's your standard Eggs Benny sandwiched between two thick slices of homemade bread (your choice of white, whole wheat or multigrain - no less!) and a bowl of some of the tastiest Hollandaise I've found in the past few months. All tucked away in an unassuming, down-home diner in Port Williams - a quick drive from downtown Wolfville! More people need to know about this! Four tables covered in business cards of diners-gone-by are set up in a space about the size of a loading elevator surrounded by antiques and collectibles of all kinds including a very important sign: 'Patience required as good food takes time to prepare.' Why so important? Well, there's only one person cooking back there. ONE. If she doesn't make it, you're not eating it. It makes for consistently hearty and satisfying meals, but it does increase your wait time. Portions are HUGE (actually, the burgers border on obscene...), everything is made fresh on site, and the prices are more than affordable considering what you get! And on that note, hit up an ATM at the corner store next door since it's all cash only!

    Great little hole in the wall place in Port Williams. The sign on the wall states: Patience…read morerequired as good food takes time to prepare. That says it all. It is small and cozy. Even when it was only half full we overhead the waitress welcoming new customers with "We will get to you as soon as we can". The waits weren't long, and the food was great! I rediscovered the origins of hash browns in their culturally authentic Acadian grated potato pancakes - the size of a Frisbee. Crunchy on the outside and soft inside. Lots of potato flavour! The middle sized breakfast was huge - eggs, bacon, home fries and great homemade bread. Annnd - one can substitute the potato pancakes for home fries!!!! Unfortunately it can't get a 5 star because they were seen reusing the homemade jam from the individual servings - scrape the top, smooth it out and add more to the top. As much as I encourage good economics of not throwing out tons of jam - this isn't a great practise:-( So, I leave it to your judgement - food great, space small, cash only and great prices. I hope they survive and thrive in Port Williams.

    Where do I start? The the workers can't understand or speak English making it next to impossible to…read moreorder. The sub was sloppy and all the sauce sprayed on one side,falling out as I attempted to eat the thing. Short tempered dirty environment. Would strongly recommend making the extra 10 minute drive to wolfville to get your subway.

    I went to your subway drive thru this evening, there were 2 people in front of me, maybe 3 maximum…read more In total, in the drive-thru, I waited about 30 minutes. When I got to the speaker, I was told that they would be with me in a moment. No biggie. However, 10+ minutes passed before I had anybody say anything again. Then, once I got up to the window to get my food, there was an employee standing by the cash the whole time, and they did not address me at all once. I was sitting outside the window for about another 10+ minutes, again, with nothing said to me. Then, when the window was finally openned, the person asked if my sub was a steak and cheese (it was), and then when I said I was paying with card, he held the payment terminal toward me and had the nerve to say, "the tip box is on the screen before payment." I, of course, pressed skip, because I do not feel waiting in a drive-thru for close to 30 minutes and then not being addressed at the window for a long period of time warrants a tip. THEN, when I got home and finally got to open my sub, I could not even understand what it was. There were clumps of yellow stuff that looked kind of like hotel scrambled eggs, there was only a few pieces of steak on one half of the sub, one of the sauces was missing and there was no cheese (pretty fundamental part of a steak and cheese sub). I had asked for shredded cheese and got some weird egg thing instead. It was just overall a very poorly made sub and a very awful experience. I did end up trying the sub when I got home (because I did not have any thing else to eat and it was my first meal of the day after being so busy), and it was pretty gross. There were no customers inside the store either, it was just us few at drive-thru, so waiting a half hour is absurd. It is most certainly NOT worth the money I paid and I would like a refund or to have the sub made again, but properly this time. Very very disappointed.
