We attended a lunch-time wedding reception in the bistro's private area upstairs. A lovely airy space that accommodated us well. The shrimp ceviche, which I had selected as my starter, was excellent. It set me up to enjoy the event, especially since it paired well with the white wine that was served. :) There followed duck confit, which was good though not the best I have had in Canada, and strawberry sorbet, which was a bit sweet. The staff was attentive and helped schlep our bags up the steep stairs - we were leaving for the airport right afterwards. Overall a good choice for a small private party in a lovely space. read more

I had passed by this spot on Queen West many times but only recently stopped in for brunch and I wish I tried it sooner! The menu is a bit more limited compared to some brunch spots (around 10-15 items), but I tend to focus on quality over quantity. We split the shakshuka and added side of a sausage, and it was delicious, super savory with a subtle kick of spice. The sourdough the dish came with was perfectly crunchy and so good that we ended up ordering an extra portion. We also tried the pancakes for something sweet and it did not disappoint either. They were thick and fluffy, looked like a small cake, with a delicious apple pie flavor on top that wasn't overly sweet. The place was cozy and had a really nice brunch atmosphere overall. The service was quick and efficient as well. Definitely a spot I'll be coming back to. read more

Peter Pan Bistro - Shakshuka and pancakes! - Canadian (New) Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Peter Pan Bistro is more of a cool hip diner than a bistro. We had a cheeseburger and the Shashuka with Merguez lamb sausage. The Shashuka was better than the burger. I didn't see how the burger is "smashed". It is more of a normal dense beef burger than loose as I thought "smashed" burgers usually are prepared. The size of the burger is normal, not large not a slider. The elderberry drink was good. But with tax and tip $90! Not worth the price. Peter Pan is on Queen near "Peter Street" close to Spadina and also has a cute small bookstore with a coffee shop next door. Peter Pan Bistro has a very limited menu. Inside is clean, has a nice long bar and a great zinc ceiling and some scary animal head wall trophies covered in a rug. I found them creepy. Overall I just wasn't feeling it and won't return. read more

Cute spot with a lot of seating on the inside. Service was good too. The food was mediocre. I got the vanilla bean latte, eggs Benedict with lox, and a stack of the weekly special pancakes for the table. The latte was good, the eggs Benedict was sub par. If I'm being charged extra for lox, I'd like lox on my dish. It seemed like they cut one slice of lox into 2 pieces and put it on each of the English muffins. The pancakes were also sub par. This weeks flavor was poached pear with a rum syrup and cream cheese frosting, but the pancakes themselves were dry. My bill for all of that, not including tip came up to $43. Not worth the quality, in my opinion. read more

Food: Visited for brunch and had french omelette, classic breakfast, latte and orange juice (it's freshly made! And so good). Both dishes were delicious. The coffee wasn't hot, it was lukewarm at best. Menu is pretty small for brunch so not a ton of options. Service: The crew here is super warm and friendly. The service was fast too. Ambiance: This is an aesthetically decorated place. Parking: Please use the green P parking around the area. I'd recommend this place! read more

Beautiful, French-inspired bistro. We popped in during a conference after visiting the bookstore next door, the boutique menu and peaceful ambience was welcoming after a long day. Staff is extremely knowledgeable about wine selection and the salmon was delicious. My only drawback is that it closed rather early for a Friday evening (10pm). Other than that, I'd definitely return again and plan to have more time. read more

We were downtown and decided to go here for dinner. The restaurant looked nice and clean and was quiet but still busy. We started with a mushroom creme brulee and pickles. Both were so delicious but the mushroom creme brulee was so unique. I was a little concerned because I didn't know what to expect. It didn't look too appetizing because mushrooms are a strange color. And as with regular creme brulee, the top crunchy part was sugar. I didn't expect mushrooms and sugar to go well together but it really worked. If you're a mushroom fan, definitely recommend trying this one out. For my main I got a burger, it was decent. The actual patty was on the dry side, I think it would have tasted better if it had more sauce. Overall an enjoyable spot, I think it would be a cute date spot if you're trying to impress someone. The vibes are also really calming. read more

We came here for dessert. Only two choices on the menu, both of which were fabulous. Great atmosphere, friendly wait staff. The orange chocolate pudding is worth coming back for, as are the delightful madeleines. read more

My friends and I visited from out of town and were pleasantly surprised with this restaurant. We stopped in after an afternoon of shopping on Queen street, and needed a good shareable meal and a bottle of wine. The food was good, the staff was incredibly nice and we loved the mood lighting and peaceful atmosphere that allowed us to chat and not be drowned in loud music. Great find, seems to be a good staple in the area! read more

Loved our brunch date here!! I've passed by multiple times and can't remember if ive been here before but glad i got to finally go. Such a great place for a quick catch up or cute date. We went for brunch and there's limited time seating - so we couldn't catch up as long of a duration as we would've liked- but that's what happens with popular brunch spots in Toronto!! Really enjoyed my americano and it was so needed. The croque madame was decent but I don't remember it being super memorable. Still a great choice if you're looking for something different than your usual brunch order as it's not offered everywhere like eggs bennie or chicken and waffles are. Would love to come back on warmer days... maybe for dinner to try out a diff vibe and menu. Thanks for the great service Peter Pan :) read more

For the Queen Street crowd this place is perfect! It's got that "je ne sais quoi" vibe going on cuz French, but the visual of walking in here is simply fabulous as well. Check out the high ceilings and wood bar, just incredible! This is a great place to take any guests that want to wander around downtown Queen W. and you don't want to gut stuff at A&W or Starbucks crap and want to relax and get good service. I've been a few times and every time it's been quite pleasant. We got a salad ordered and it was quite plain and nothing special though so ask questions about your order and make sure you do it right. The brunch was delicious! My fave part of it was the Caesar cocktail. Really good and a standout of my last visit there. They put something in which totally agreed with me and was perfect for the profile of that ubiquitous Canadian drink. If you haven't been to this Toronto classic restaurant, put it on your list! read more

Came by for a friend's Saturday morning birthday brunch. What we ordered: - Shakshuka - Eggs Benedict with Bacon Eggs benedict was served on top of a crumpet which I actually really enjoyed! The side salad was good though nothing special and the potato cake it came with was a bit bland with just a sprinkle of salt on top. Not a bad choice for a standard brunch, but nothing special in my opinion. We were also given coupons at the end of our meal for the Peter Pantry, the wine bar right next door. read more

We had a large group of 8 plus two children for Brunch. Service was good , eggs Benedict was very well done. Coffee and other items were brought in prompt time. Now I know the is a service charge for big groups but 20% on top of the bill plus taxes is too much. They shouldn't base it on the food plus taxes just the food items. It seems like a cash grab. Just be careful how much the service ends up costing. read more

Cute corner spot on Queen Street W, near the hotel and Four Seasons Art Center. Charming atmosphere casual, with cozy booth or some long tables for groups. I went in early for dinner (since I had a ballet ticket)around 6:30pm and a few tables had customers; by 7:00pm the restaurant got packed. Sparkling water, and a glass of a Catarratto wine, recommended by Connor, my server which complemented my seafood choice. Starter-Onion Soup Chuck full of onions and the broth had a slight kick. Presented with a toasted slice of Sourdough with melted Gruyere Cheese. Filling. Trout Toronto, crisp skin Trout on top of Ratatouille, Beurre Blanc and a crisp Potato Terrine. Delicious! As I was leaving town the next day, I thought of going for Brunch around Mid-Day, the line was out of the Door. Next time in town. read more

Underwhelmed Very limited menu - 8 entrees? 4 sides, a handful of "snacks" and one dessert option but in a great location! The space is cool and the table in the bay window is fabulous but bathrooms are down a flight of stairs-not sure your option if you are mobility impaired... Service was meh ... although we did get a great tip that Viggo Mortensen was at a booth in the back! (We were in town for Tiff) as a party of 6 somehow the orders went in differently and the person who'd arrived last and ordered a bit later ended up with her dinner before ours were even fired?!? They did end up comping us a drink for the inconvenience but only after one in our party talked to the manager The cocktails were tasty, the dinner good but not amazing out of this world as you can find in Toronto We had the trout on ratatouille... it was on giant chunks of squash and eggplant etc... and the pappardelle pasta with wild mushrooms The coffee was delicious but only one dessert choice to go with it read more

I was eager to try Peter Pan Bistro and when I saw it on the Winterlicious website, I pounced on the chance to dine here, and what an experience it was! First of all, the ambience was great, it's a cozy and intimate place to get together with friends or enjoy time with bae after a long week. The food was excellent. I personally enjoyed the duck more than the beef striploin, but were flavorful and cooked just right. The service was amazing, when the staff noticed that our meal wasn't arriving as fast as the other tables, they sent the sommelier over and got us a round of wine to pair with our meal on the house. The wine pairing was also excellent. I'm not sure why Peter Pan Bistro only has three stars on yelp, but I really enjoyed my time here and am definitely going to come back again! read more

Peter Pan is a Toronto institution. I had not been there in maybe 20 years. I used to hang out there regularly. Ambiance definitely upgraded. The "warm" olives for the table arrived scolding hot. My partner burnt her fingers picking one from the bowl. When cooled off a little, tasted. Horrible. Sent back. "Breaded" cod arrived accompanied by a few stalks of what I think was rapini. Not sure as it was a soggy cluster. Bowl of small new potatoes. Good. Cod was appropriately flakey but without any taste. Sauce was so subtle it could be described as wet accompaniment. My partners Risotto was stodgy and wet enough but little taste. Prices all round on the high side for what was there. Wine and spirit prices comparable to other places, i.e. exorbitant. Service was attentive. So disappointed. I KNOW what peter Pan was as an institution. The "new" Peter Pan has a long way to go. read more

Dinner is where it's at! Caveat: I came here super baked on a hunch that if I don't try it, and I've seen this establishment in Toronto for the last decade... I don't know if I will ever. I was pleasantly surprised but the following items: - chicken liver doughnut. I was attracted to how revolting yet savory this sounded. How could one pair a yeasty donut with pâté? Is this legal ?! I had to find out. I was surprised to discover the donut itself was more of a scone or biscuit texture. It was mildly sweet and crispy on the outside. Inside probably a quarter inch of salty rich savoury liver pate. It melted in my mouth with each bite. - seafood cassoulet. This was alright. The menu mentioned it had octopus, scallop, mussels etc but it came just with salmon on top. They rectified this when i noticed however but I felt the beans seem to overpower the dish and there could have been more of a seafood flavor. - braised beef cheek with mustard greens and mint. This was presentationally most impressive and interesting in flavor combination to eat. The beef cheek came out shaped like a stack but each bite was very tender like hand pulled brisket. I think I'll visit again after overlooking this spot for years. read more

Having walked by this restaurant numerous time, I sadly paid little attention to it. I finally had the opportunity to check it out and I'm glad I did! Luckily my friend got there a little earlier than the time we had planned to meet b/c she managed to snag a table. Basically from when we sat down to when we left there was a continuous line up at the door. This place is busy to say the least. Their brunch/lunch menu is fairly simple. I had the Chicken Fried sandwich and my friends had the Pan Hamburger. The dried chicken sandwich is HUGE...like taller than my head. I had to de-bun it and eat it with my knife/fork b/c while I have a big mouth it's clearly not that big. The chicken is nice and crispy, there was cheese melted on it, with greens. It came with a side of maply syrup, but i like my fried chicken spicy rather than sweet. I would have preferred some heat to the batter, but that's just me. The fries are those thicker cut ones - these type of fries are personally not my favourite - I'm a sucker for the thin crispy ones. My friends throughouly enjoyed their burgers - I believe it was rarebit with caramelized onions and tomato chutney The decor is pretty unusual - wall carpets with animal heads on them, random pictures/mirrors placed around the room. Interesting to take a look and see what you find. Service was great considering the place was busy. I'm definitely curious to try some of their dinner options - taking a look at the menu and it all looks so good! read more

Went for a Saturday late morning burnch. A very cosy, stylish bistro, with a great vibe and good service. We had the Shakshuka and savory crepe(galette) from the specials menu. The Shakshuka is one of the best we have had in the city, though a bit on the spicier side. The duck galette was something new for brunch; really tasty and interesting combination of ingredients and flavours. The price is on the higher side - something perhaps more for a special occasion; than a standard weekend brunch. That's the reason for docking the one star; but would go again. read more

Short and Sweet: Second star to the right and straight on to amazing brunch! Long Story Long: Came in for New Year's Day brunch and it was delicious! I had the omelette (onions, asparagus, goat cheese) which came with a nice, lightly dressed side salad and a potato cake, which was light and fluffy. Everything was simple and tasty. I started with the scones; they were fresh, warm, the right amount of sweet, fluffy, and buttery. Two per order and it came with a side of butter and dark cherry jam (I believe). Are you drooling? Me too, they were delicious! The presentation of the food was nice and clean. The decor was pretty and unique, I really loved the wall art and the noise level was decent. Our server was very kind and great to talk to, very charismatic, she really brightened our morning. She was also very on top of the coffee refills (much appreciated, especially after a New Year's Eve kind of night!) Overall, it was a pleasant experience with a fair price and great atmosphere, which the servers helped positively contribute to. I'll be visiting those scones again... read more

Great place for a quiet bite with my kid over lunch. We both had special dietary requirements. The service was exceptional. The food was delicious and met our needs. My teen went for a burrata capreses salad and charcuterie (leftovers!). She loved it. Plenty of toast to go with both. I had the beet salad with a side of grilled chicken - probably the best ever side/after thought of chicken ever made. Juicy, tangy, hearty given how small it appeared. Would definitely repeat again. read more

I give this restaurant three stars. I went to Peter Pan Bistro for brunch on a cold day back in February. I ordered the Classic Breakfast and my wife got the Eggs Benedict. Both dishes were good but nothing out of the ordinary. I liked the arugula salad and I remember the breakfast potato being pretty tasty, but the Classic Breakfast only came with two strips of bacon. The food was reasonably priced considering the location. However, the coffee with Baileys was a bit pricey. The restaurant was busy but we called in advance and got a table rather quickly. The restaurant was loud but that didn't really bother me. I may go back to Peter Pan Bistro for brunch at some point down the road. It's worth trying their brunch if you haven't already done so. Three stars. read more

I stopped by here on a late Friday morning for breakfast and had a great meal. A proper combo of eggs, toast, salad, large hashbrown, and peameal bacon. I ordered a cappuccino that was served at the perfect temperature and had a light sweetness when I added the brown sugar cube that came on the saucer. The decor was old timey yet modern and the service was great! My meal came with a 10% coupon to the merchant store right next door, which sold unique wine, ready-made cocktails, and jams. Should I find myself in Toronto again soon, I would certainly return. read more

Came across this place while searching for brunch on a Saturday morning. I found their breakfast menu to be rather limited compared to other brunch spots (though, sometimes it's nice not to be inundated with choices). I ordered a classic breakfast: eggs (over easy), bread, salad, bacon (you can also get peameal) and a hash brown. I've never had a hash brown that thick before; it was pleasantly surprising. Service is rather quick. They provide you with a copy of 'The New Yorker' to read, which I thought was nice. The booths and tables are aesthetically pleasing, as well as the overall décor. Whether its brunch with the gals or a quick breakfast before you hit the road, you can't go wrong with Peter Pan. read more

A cute restaurant that gave me drama movie vibes. Don't ask me why, it just did. Maybe it was because of the cloudy fall day so it made me feel like I was in a coming of age movie. Anyways, I had the shakshuka. It was filling and it came to a total of about $19. I think I was a bit too pricey considering it was a just tomatoes, eggs, and bread. I don't think I would return again simply because of the price and the food wasn't memorable to me. It was missing.. something. Bathrooms were super clean though and the staff were very nice! read more

Seemed liked they used farmed salmon though which was interesting, but might just be a Toronto thing (I was visiting from Vancouver). It was still delicious.

Came for breakfast on a Saturday morning excited to fill my stomach with something delicious. When walking into the restaurant it gives off a very cool vibe. There are these animal head wall mounts that are covered in a rug material that kind of creeped me out, but just made sense there. Started my morning with some coffee, as all people should do, and a grapefruit mimosa (this is optional, but I still think everyone should do it). The coffee was hot and fresh, better than I expected. The mimosa tasted like fresh squeezed grapefruit juice, so that was delicious, too! We started with the fresh made madeleines and the lemon curd they came with was so tasty! Tart, just how I like it. For breakfast I ordered the Croque Madame and it was really good. It was packed with meat and the egg was cooked perfectly. I was thoroughly pleased with my meal. I gave a 4 because my friend's meals fell a little short. One of their eggs was over-hard and she asked for over easy. All in all, with service and everything I'd say it was a nice place that if recommended giving a try. read more
