Love this local cosy eatery located in the heart of Kingston Ontario for comfort food! If you are looking for Brunch, this has a great breakfast menu with basic Bacon & Eggs to gourmet omelettes, Eggs Benedict's and Pancakes. I went for the homemade lasagna and it's one of the BEST I've had. Made and served in individual ramekins. Served nice and hot with thick layers of meaty tomato sauce topped with melted mozzarella cheese that's nicely blistered. read more

We had high hopes for this restaurant. But I guess we just picked the wrong dishes. My husband did not the flavor of his pancakes and he was hoping for maple syrup but did not get that. I got scrambled eggs and potatoes. I thought the flavor of the potatoes were really good. read more

Came on a Monday morning, looking for breakfast. It was quite empty, but makes sense given the circumstances. Street parking nearby. Ordered the Eggs and Sausage ($9.95). Price was very reasonable. Toast was nice and buttered. Nice big serving of home fries. Basically exactly what I was looking for. Service was amazing. The ladies working here were friendly and asked to refill my coffee several times. Would definitely come back. read more

Decided to go to this diner for breakfast during my first visit at Kingston. It was a recommendation to go to since a lot of breakfast places downtown were busy on a Sunday morning. Sadly there was still about a 20 minute wait for a table here so just be aware that you'll have to wait! The staff was moderately friendly but not super attentive. When water or coffee was low, we repeatedly asked for refills for our table of 5. As well, we waited over 30 minutes for food and asked twice for follow ups. The attitude was not the warmest when I asked but a response of "it is busy but your food will arrive" without anyone actually checking on our order. Once the food arrived, the toast was a bit browner and dryer than I'd like (but that's personal preference) and the pancakes were burnt sadly. Overall the food wasn't impressive and not worth the wait. It is possible I was unlucky and got a bad experience. I really did want to like this place but I'm afraid I won't be going back. read more

Peter's Place - Burnt pancakes for Old Farm Breakfast - American Near Me - Kingston, Ontario

See all

This is a cute diner with blazing fast service, but the food just really wasn't great. We ordered the $15 large breakfast meal and split it 2 ways. It was the perfect amount of food. There were a few things on the plate. The potatoes were outstanding - super yummy and not too mushy. The eggs, sausage, and toast were alright. The pancakes were the problem - they didn't taste fresh. We could have sworn that they tasted exactly similar to the pancake mixes where you only have to add water. We were really looking forward to a fresh stack of pancakes, so they were a big disappointment. We want to highlight the service speed; our food literally showed up in 5 minutes, which was super convenient. All in all, would probably not go back unless looking for reasonably priced food in a rush. read more

Peter's Place - a plate of breakfast food - American Near Me - Kingston, Ontario

NEWLY RENOVATED! Peters has expended into the corner and has a attractive blend of diner and current decor! We went for lunch and chose Greek options - souvlaki wrap and moussaka. Just $8 each! The staff were fantastic and welcoming. There is more than food - they sell cheeses and olive oils and artisan chocolates. In-house, they make outstanding pastries. The baklava isn't overly sweet and comes in a delicate size. If you don't have room for any of the scrumptious cakes, still treat yourself to a couple of chocolate-covered peanut butter balls. And take home a box of Greek Ouzo candies for just $5! read more

Standard breakfast food for cheap in a homey, local diner! This place is popular with locals and is a hidden gem for students. This diner has traditional breakfast options for super cheap and good quality. I always get the Old Farm Style but I've had it with the sausage and bacon, both of which were good. I love coming here because the service is always great (the people are super friendly) and perfect for inexpensive homemade breakfast. PS. To a previous review stating that they are rude to foreigners, I completely disagree! They have been nothing but kind each of the 4-5 times I've gone. read more

Food was cold, toast came out barely warm with mold. Sent back and still came out barely toasted ( after asking for it to be toasted dark). Eggs cold but bacon warm. Will not return. read more

Peter's Place - Perfect breakfast. - American Near Me - Kingston, Ontario

My lunch here today was really well done, so I'm genuinely shocked how someone below had a 1 star experience. That's yelp for you! Ample seating, friendly/attentive staff and great prices make for a perfect spot to duck your head in during a busy day. We ordered a gyro and western omelette and were surprised at both the portion size of the omelette and the deliciousness of both items. Perhaps these are two items that are hard to screw up, but we both really enjoyed our meals and will recommend it to friends looking for a casual lunch/brunch place. read more

I wish I took photos. Recently moved from Toronto. This is my new weekend breakfast place. The patio was nice with green vine detailing on the fence, the price was right, the food was perfection! Comforting classic breakfast food place. We will be back! read more

Stopped by here on the way to a 90th Birthday in Kingston. A narrow space that holds about 30 people with the simple decor of a greasy spoon - tables, chairs and not a whole lot else. We tried the omelets, pancakes, sausages, ham and eggs. Everything was great. Coffee was good too. They know how to get the tables turned during their busy time while still maintaing great service. Would I recommend: Yes, good spot to stop if your in downtown Kingston. Woudl I return: Yes read more

Peter's Place is an institution among the , "where to eat breakfast" places in Kingston and one of my favourite places to eat breakfast on the planet. There's a reason why it's completely full every Saturday and Sunday morning - all morning. It seems that for the most part that you'll always have to wait for a table, though I've never waited more than 10 or so minutes for one. The staff is great and often just brings my girlfriend and I our tea and coffee when we sit. I always get # 13, which is the Big Farmer's Breakfast. $ 8.95 gets you 3 pancakes, 2 fresh eggs, sausage or ham or bacon, pan fried potatoes and a set of toast. I challenge you to find a better value or tasting breakfast in Kingston. If you're looking for a "drink your coffee - read the paper" type of place then this isn't it. I love the, "eat and get out because someone is waiting" atmosphere. A great little place that's well worth a visit. read more

Peter's Place - Street view - American Near Me - Kingston, Ontario

Came here because people told us we HAVE to eat here. The place isn't much to look at, basic diner vibe, no frills. Whatever, I don't really care as long as the food is good! Service was pretty lackluster, and you can tell the waitresses don't care about going the extra mile. I can be fine with that, again as long as the food makes up for it. However, breakfast was very disappointing. Toast was cold and burnt and my omelette was extremely dry! Will not be back, especially with so many other amazing breakfast places in Kingston that really put in the effort for their food, service, etc. Ambiance = thumbs down Service = thumbs down Food = thumbs down read more

Went for breakfast after leaving my dad at KGH for surgery - wanted to sit down to eat - ordered pancakes with ham - came to me raw inside, which I took a big bite of, came back half cooked the second time so another lovely mouthful of soggy mix - I ate the han which they moved from one plate to the other - I won't be back - oh and they charged me for the full meal, I did eat the ham I guess that was worth $12 - staff were good - husband said his BLT was fine read more

If you want to gorge yourself on breakfast food on a budget, this is the place to go. I had the cheese omelette with home fries and an order of pancakes. The food was okay. Not amazing. But the portion sizes were enormous. I came in for Sunday brunch just before noon. We were seated immediately, but the place was full. We were lucky there was a table open. As we sat there and started eating, we noticed a line beginning to form at the door. By the time we had finished, there were two groups of four and two groups of three waiting to be seated. We seemed to arrive at just the right time. read more

Hungover? Still have too much self-respect to go to Morrison's? Too cheap to go to Pan Chancho? Peter's Place is for you. Simple, cheap breakfast served at break neck speed. I'm a devotee to the feta/tomato omelet but they also have a few other omelet/egg options as well as pancakes and french toast. Nothing special, but fast breakfast at 6 bucks and bottomless coffees after a late night never felt better. read more

Peter's was bought by the family that owns Greektown in the west end. Greektown is known for their quality and good portion sizes. When Peter's was bought they expanded both the premises and the menu. IMO, they still have a great breakfast and very good coffee......I always ask for extra home fries..........so so good. Much of what you can get at Greektown you can now get at Peter's. I would highly recommend for breakfast and lunch. read more

Good place for breakfast. Always wanted to eat here...was not disappointed. This place reminds me of the corner eat-it-and-beat-it places where I grew up in Chicago. read more

A great place for a quick, cheap breakfast. Service is good and the food is average but still tasty. The potatoes/hash browns may not appeal to everyone, as they have a slight BBQ seasoning/tomato ketchup flavouring to them. I can speak for the pancakes though, and they are yummy! read more

I'm a new and BIG fan of Peter's Place. I'd heard lots about Peter's Place through the grapevine over the years, but never seemed to find an opportunity to set foot in the place. Luckily, while my folks were in town and wanted a good greasy spoon filling of breakfast, we checked out Peter's place! It was "so excellent" and "better than that other place we've gone" (I won't name names) according to my mom that we were here twice in one week! The portions are good, the service is speedy and the potatoes are done on the griddle and are well seasoned. My favourite breakfast is #7 - eggs, three meats (but hold the toast). Also - they take cash, credit and debit, so you'll avoid a trip to the atm for cash if that's not your thing. read more

Traditional small diner breakfast. Fast service, good coffee, low prices. Nothing surprising on the menu for breakfast, but that's ok. Everything looks good. Not fancy, but clean and nicely decorated. Lots of public parking near by. Extra points for having pea meal bacon (back bacon) in the menu. read more

Excellent service, home cooking, and fantastic prices. Eating breakfast anywhere else in Kingston would just be foolish.

Need a place where the staff remembers you. The food is hot , the breakfast does not cost 100. For 4 people then Peters place is the place you should go . Get to know the people at the next table . Or the person in line while waiting for the next table . Everyone is nice . The food is great . The coffee is perfect. read more

This is my favourite place for breakfast and lunch!! Great prices, AMAZING food and great people! The soup is homemade and delicious. Daily special, is a small restaurant with minimal seating so might be a little bit of wait in peak hours but tot worth the wait! The service is fast and the staff are so friendly! I would give Peters place more then 5 stars if I could!! Also the Kingston Frontenac's come and eat their so you might get to see some of Kingston's favourite hockey team! read more

It's a nice little local restaurant with typical western brunch dishes. The smoothie (twister) tasted awesome!

Taste not really good, worse than myself homemade breakfast. Won't come here again, not recommend

I hate to say but this is just average. There is nothing bad or terrible but nothing that really stands out. The food or at least the eggs Benedict was okay, but my friend did enjoy his fried eggs and bacon. One thing I found that was good was even though it was somewhat busy I didn't feel rushed. There is nothing worse than having a server trying to rush you out as soon as you sit down. Everyone was friendly as well. read more

Quick and easy breakfast. This place is small but turns tables like a pro! You know it has to be good if everyone stops there for a bite to eat. Highly recommend read more

I came to Kingston to do the Penn tour but came for a weekend. We went on a Saturday morning, we happened to walk by looking for a breakfast spot and decided to try it. We had to wait for about 5-10mins tops. Got in and ordered with the lovely staff. It was unusual busy apparently said the staff but the food came out super fast. My eggs were cooked right and was nice a hot when I got them. Bacon was crispy but jot burnt, just the way I like it. Potatoes and bread was great as well. All around we we're in and out quickly which was good because we wanted to tour around! It was great service and I'd go again! read more

Went here for breakfast food, big portions but average in taste. Excellent service (really friendly). A good diner for a cup of Joe :).

Cheap and decent greasy spoon breakfast joint. Always a buzz, the service staff do their best to keep up but you're often left waiting for refills of your water or drink. But the food definitely makes up for the somewhat sub-par service. Strong coffee, tasty eggs, and crispy bacon, at a reasonable price, what more do you want? read more

Best breakfast place in town. Always busy, for weekend brunch so be prepared to wait for a table. Other than that, the food and coffee tastes great. The prices are reasonable too! Service is mediocre to good, I've never had bad service there. It's my go-to-place. read more
