36 Best Breakfast Restaurants in Calgary

“I stopped in here for the first time on the way home from my night shift, as I had heard there food was amazing. It did not disappoint I had the brisket hash and a side of pancakes with fruit it was the perfect serving size. The server was awesome and it was a great place for breakfast or dinner in May case...lol next time I will have to try the French toast or the breakfast poutine 🤔. Either way I will definitely be back.“

“The menu offers a great variety for both meat lovers and vegetarians 🥗
The flavors were exquisite and the presentation of the food was excellent. We were served by Miller, who had an outstanding attitude and a great sense of service. A wonderful breakfast for a Saturday morning. Highly recommended“

“Working alongside Vanessa is always a pleasure. She’s professional, friendly, and truly cares about the customer experience. She communicates well with the kitchen and ensures everything runs smoothly, making it easy to deliver great service. A fantastic team member!“

“Loved coming here today with my friends and daughter ! Friendly staff and the breakfast was amazing. Even better than the breakfast in Istanbul when I went last year !“

“The menu is presented well and the food is fantastic. I especially appreciated Fabi, who is definitely a treasure.“

“We came by for breakfast. When we walked in we were greeted by the friendly ladies working and they had decent sized portions. Food was fresh and hot and it was a relaxed comfortable home vibe for us. The bacon was delicious as were the gluten free options which they let me know which ones were. Eggs were made perfect and the service again was great. Will come back.“

“Awesome spot to get amazing gluten free / gluten friendly pancakes and waffles. Our waitress was great at listing and knowing what items I could have as a celiac and to limit any possible cross contamination. I really appreciated her diligence. Gluten free toast was actually delicious with their house made jam.

Call to check the waitlist though, for some reason the online thing didn't work for us. It said there was no waitlist and that was in fact wrong. Still worth the wait though.“

“Great place for breakfast/brunch, food is great and staff is wonderful…“

“I dare anyone to find me another breakfast sandwhich (in the world) better than the Basic B. These guys are amazing and what they do“

“Great place for breakfast/brunch, food is great and staff is wonderful…“

“Great staff and great eats“

“Wish I could give this place more than 5 stars! I rarely eat out because, with Celiacs, I usually can only find a few things I can eat and have to pay extra for GF substitutes, or I need to eat at some pretentious hippy place that only serves quinoa and avocados (no offense to those who enjoy such things). It is so nice to be able to go to a classic diner with gluten free everything with no extra charges! Even the waffles and perogies are gluten free and oh-so-good! There was only one item on the menu that I could eat! If you know the Celiac struggle, you know why this place made me so happy.“

“I loooooove this place! You will have the greatest food ever in here! The service is amazing and it just has a great vibe!
Steak and eggs are so delicious here and they give you a generous portion of sides!I’ll definitely go back to this place!“

“Hands down my fave fave brunch place🔥❤️💯“

“Always enjoy the early bird special! Great food for a great price! We always get good service there , its clean and welcoming!“

“Good food and great staff“

“The wife and I alt go early I. The morning before it’s to busy and have to stand in line . The food is pretty good on most part and service always in and out .“

“Always great food and service. Friendly staff. My favourite stop when we stay in Calgary overnight.“

“I was told the food here is amazing and that is 100% the truth. There was a very nice buffet set out but we went to the menu. I had the banana bread French toast while my friend had the salmon eggs Benedict. We shared our orders and both dishes were delicious! Thank you Chef Ricky.Our server Michael made for an experience rather than just a meal. He shared select stories from the past 30 years he's worked there. My favorite was the description of the world-renowned restaurant the Westin once hosted. Some guests would fly in just for the meal.My favorite part of the whole experience was Chef Shuvie. Despite being busy, he came out and chatted with us and made sure we were treated well. It was his recommendation that brought us there.Parking is an issue for outside guests as you cannot access the Westin parking lot without a code, but thankfully the Jamieson building is right next store and accessing the restaurant was very easy.I would definitely recommend this place.“

“I do not wish to be forced into a funeral that I do not wish to attend, when I am trying to have breakfast with a friend. If it was important to some to have a minute of silence for a dead rich woman who oversaw many many genocides, on every continent of the world, then you could open at 10:01, or go outside, or many other options that would respect that not everyone has the same experience as you do. Non-consensual actions cause harm.“

“Such a nice, bright & friendly place. So many interesting choices to choose from.“

“Fresh, healthy and tasty 😋🫶“

“We have been going to Nellies for over 10 years now. It is a Calgary staple in the all day breakfast scene! The new owner is the previous chef as Jenny sold it over a year ago. French toast there is some of the best in the city. And the bacon, real good. The service a friendly quick and just downright excellent.“

“Delicious food, great prices and lovely staff!“

“Brunch was absolutely delicious - such an interesting change on the usual and thoroughly enjoyed by our group! The manager and staff are to be acknowledged for a job extremely well done, they are professional, welcoming and fun! You have an amazing restaurant at South Edmonton Common!!“

“I've been to this location a couple of times and it's always been great! It can get very busy and loud (which is totally understandable) but the service is always friendly and fast regardless. The food is top notch! It's a little expensive, but honestly, it's totally worth it for their hollandaise sauce! This is a great place for a breakfast/brunch/lunch with family and/or friends.

Parking: During peak hours it is very busy and it can be difficult to find parking in the main lot. There are lots on the back side of the restaurant which are about a 1-3 minute walk from the front door.

Kid-friendliness: They offer crayons and paper to draw on!“
