Marketside Restaurant

This was one of the more satisfying breakfast I think I have ever had. While trekking through…read moreCanada, I wanted to find some cool new breakfast spots. This one popped up on my radar and I thought I'm going to go check it out. Located in a home Depot shopping center, it was pretty easy to find. Upon entering the place, it had a very cheery bright atmosphere. I was able to grab myself a table and take a seat. Robin, my server, was there in a heartbeat to grab me some coffee. The coffee itself is very tasty, they have a fairly comprehensive menu, and had plenty of options. One thing I was actually stunned about was the low prices. A breakfast of two eggs, bacon and home fries was only $6.99. I jumped in and ordered a couple upgrades including a pancake on the side and the peameal bacon. Again, this was one of the most amazing meals I've had. I had never experienced this type of bacon before, and now I am absolutely hooked. Everything overall was cooked perfectly. Seasoned excellently and I can't say enough nice things about this place. Service was on point, food and atmosphere was all there. Bottom line? I will definitely be hitting this place again, and you should too. I was told that it gets pretty busy and sometimes can be a line out the door so get there early, or just be prepared to hang out for a while.

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 always have a little bite to help us slow down with those drinks because they go down way too easy. Give me a spritz of any kind and I'm a happy girl.

We have been on the road for almost 1.5 weeks now. I was sorely missing a home cooked meal. After our first choice for breakfast was found to be closed for renovations, we chose this locally owned place. I'm so glad we did! When we entered, we were immediately greeted and told to seat ourselves. The server greeted us and took drink orders. She asked us if this was our first time here (yes), asked where we were from (Florida), told us what their specialty was (Sal maglie), also what bakery their Italian bread came from. I ordered the former with Italian bread and yes, best damn breakfast I've had in a long time! We ordered some food to go for our children and it came out in a timely fashion. One of the regulars sitting at an adjacent table chatted us up (felt like home) and the owner came round to see how all was. This was a great experience! The place was clean, well lit, and just awesome! Also, for you good Catholics out there, they serve fish every Friday! read more

If your idea of the perfect breakfast involves trendy décor, reclaimed wood, and avocado toast with edible flowers... keep driving. But if you want to feel like you've stumbled into a neighborhood diner where the owners know everyone's name, the coffee keeps flowing, and the food tastes like someone made it just for you, welcome to Marketside Cafe. This is the kind of place with fitted vinyl tablecloths, mismatched coffee mugs, and a menu full of home-cooked goodness. The pancakes were buttery, fluffy, and exactly what pancakes should be. The Sal Maglie--one of the house specialties--was a savory hash of eggs and potatoes that absolutely hit the spot. Simple, hearty, and ridiculously satisfying. This is a neighborhood joint that delivers. Yum. read more

Everything came out fresh, hot, and full of flavor. I especially enjoyed the (insert your favorite dish if you'd like)--highly recommended! The service was excellent--friendly, attentive, and welcoming from the moment we walked in. It felt like dining at a warm, family-run place where they truly care about their guests. If you're in Niagara Falls and looking for a hearty, satisfying breakfast or brunch with great service, Marketside is a must-visit. We'll definitely be back next time we're in town! read more

The homeless situation is out of control and Mike the owner refuses to not let the homeless people into his restaurant where paying customers are eating. He allows stinky disgusting homeless people in to eat with normal people. What does that say about this restaurant and cleanliness??? I've even seen these homeless use the bathroom. read more

Check out the huge fireplace in the bar area with a historic painting of Lafayette by a local Buffalo artist. According to the manager, when it gets cold and they close off the outside patio dining area, they light up that fireplace and keep it burning all season. I would love to return in the winter to sit by that fireplace.

We left still hungry. All the portions were extremely small. They also did not ask about allergies, which I thought was SO important especially since they are a school. The salad was good, but about the size of a fist. The chicken was really tender and moist, plated well, but only a small thigh/wing with a few cubed cucumbers and tomatoes under. The pana cotta was 2-3 bites, was served on a cookie the size of an Oreo cookie. For $40 per person, it is overpriced and not worth it.
