If you are from the area this is a staple restaurant spot in Canal Winchester (other locations is…read morein Athens & Heath). The staff is always welcoming & you can tell that it's a family. Food is good. Never have a bad meal just sometimes doesn't sit well with me. We frequent here so you know it's a good time. Parking is mainly street around the corner. Town in small with local shops. Never been during evening times so keep that in mind.

I was super excited for this place, but I didn't even get to eat. On arrival we were told to seat…read moreourselves, 5 minutes later we were told someone would be with us soon, so far so good. Then we waited for 20 minutes. We didn't even get menus. Two tables were seated after us and were already ordering when we decided to give up and try another place. I don't like assuming people are prejudiced. I want to believe our server just happened to overlook the one table of brown people because they're a teenage girl going through a hard time. So that's what I choose to believe. I just hope the place shapes up, because someone else might not have taken it as well as we did. On the bright side, the staff seemed friendly (when we left, two servers near the entrance told us to have a nice day) and the dishes at the tables around us looked really good. I hope to come back and successfully try that chicken noodle soup someday

Canal Wigwam isn't a fancy brunch spot, and that's exactly its charm. This is the kind of…read moreneighborhood diner every small town hopes to have. Think black-and-white checkered floors, red/chrome chairs and counter stools, a soundtrack of '50s and '60s classics, and waitresses happily singing along while they work. The atmosphere feels welcoming, lived-in, and full of personality. The food is straightforward, affordable, and exactly what you'd hope for from a classic American breakfast. You don't come here for an açaí bowl or an eggs Benedict flight--you come because you're hungry, you want your eggs cooked right, and you know you'll be taken care of. Places like this become community staples for a reason. The service was warm, the energy in the room was contagious, and the whole experience reminded me why diners like this make me so happy. We'll definitely be back, and next time I'm looking forward to trying the lunch menu.

I want to like this place so bad, I really do! But the food just does not hit for me! I first tried…read moreCanal Wigwam about a decade ago (I have lived in Canal for 13 years now) and had such a poor experience that I didn't return until today. I thought that I would give it a shot again, but the food was just as disappointing as my first try. The service is great though! Everyone seems to be friendly and kind! We stopped by around 10 AM today (Saturday). Every table was full (so clearly others do like the food/service). My husband and I started off with a cup of coffee while our daughter got a glass of chocolate milk. The coffee was watery and bland (although they have a sign up front about having the world's best coffee). Be prepared to wait a while for your food. It took almost 45 minutes for us to get ours; however, it was understandable considering every table was full! For food, my daughter got the cinnamon roll. She absolutely loved it! She said that it was super soft and ooey-gooey! My husband ordered the steak and eggs. He ordered the steak medium, but it came out very well-done (super chewy). I tried his home fries with his side of bacon and both of those were good! My daughter enjoyed the bacon too! I had the biscuits and gravy and a side of "cheesy" scrambled eggs. A big no to both! The biscuits were undercooked and the gravy just tasted like a large clump of flour! The "cheesy" scrambled eggs were tough scrambled eggs with some shredded cheese sprinkled on the top! While the food was not "it" for me, there are other things that I do enjoy about Canal Wigwam! It's a cute little diner located in the center of our comforting and cozy town! They promote many other local businesses through their "decor" - the dining tables are designed with local businesses flyers/contact information, their coffee mugs promote another local business, etc. Again, I really want to like the food here, but for some reason - my taste buds do not agree!

I was craving a western omelet and searched for the closest diner with decent reviews. I know it's…read morethe peak of Summer but the temperature inside the restaurant was freezing, I'm talking uncomfortably cold. The hostess asked what we wanted to drink before we could even sit down and then proceeded to come back after what felt like 60 seconds to take our order which made my teenager anxious. We ordered a pancake in addition to the omelet and both were mediocre and nothing memorable. The omelet toppings did taste fresh but there was an overwhelming amount of american cheese inside. I don't think I would return in the future.

I had dropped off my son's truck to get it worked on, and decided to stop by and grab some…read morebreakfast at Delaney's. I really enjoyed the style of this diner, such a throwback to old school clientele, and had such a nostalgic feel to it. I remember my dad taking my brother and I to spots like this in Oklahoma growing up, and thought it was just right to take my son here and not just enjoy some quality time with my son, but to enjoy some breakfast. Now we didn't order anything fancy, honestly, I wasn't really hungry, so I ordered the Avocado toast, and my son had the oatmeal bowl. To be honest, I really like how simple this food was, but in all truth, how really delicious it was too. The eggs were cooked just how I like them, the fresh taste of the avocado was on point. My son enjoyed his oatmeal and brown sugar. The young man waiting our table (Logan), was a good kid, quick to take our order, quick on the coffee, and extremely polite. No doubt the manager knows, that kid is a keeper. The establishment was very clean, and just had a clean shine to it. Best part was just enjoying time with my son, and showing him how important that family time really is. Will we come back, no question we will.

On street parking is adequate except at the busiest of times. Service was prompt, cordial, and accurate. The ambiance is small town casual and friendly for all. I've mentioned before inconsistency in the meal quality. This time is wasn't the merely the prep but the meat ( fried pork tenderloin "Big-T" at food trucks) just tasted very off. Almost spoiled. I only ate about 1/2. The fries were bland and uninspired. Small town dining experience with inconsistent results. I like dining local and will probably continue but less often here.

There is construction in the area (7/15/2026) as you can see, but there is plenty of parking behind the restaurant and it is easy to get in and out of and look at that beautiful, historic building! I ordered my entree and side separately and didn't take pictures, but, of course I want to go back and try many more items. It is a family friendly atmosphere and the staff greeted me immediately when I walked in. I sat at a table and the bartender and waitress both took great care of me. Their hospitality was outstanding! I had a delicious chili cheese hot dog on a toasted bun and then ordered the house made kettle chips. I have never had potatoes cut fresh and fried on the spot. They were almost too hot to eat (almost) and the middle of the larger chips was slightly al dente so I knew they were actually cut and fried and not just heated up. I still want to try the spicy pickle fries, the potato skins, the hamburger, some of the sandwiches, and more!

It wasn't bad, just didn't wow me either. Still it was a great time and served as a great meetup place. If family wanted to come back I wouldn't mind, but I probably wouldn't suggest it.
