Painfully below average. Bad coffee, wasn't even offered a refill. Had to go to the front to get cutlery. Food was just bad, no seasoning what so ever. Heinz ketchup bottles are filled with some no-name gross ketchup. Only perk was she forgot to charge me for my $4.75 (☠️) orange juice. Sad to be passing through Squamish and have this be my only food /restaurant stop... Maybe next time we'll choose somewhere better.

I (female) went to brunch with two male friends. We were served by a young gentleman in his late 20s-early 30s. While he seemed nice enough, we all noticed that he consistently went out of his way to serve me last. He was also unable to make eye contact with me (the sole female at the table). First, I was given my coffee last. Didn’t think anything of it. He then returned to take our food order. He started at one side of the table and I was seated in the middle. He took the first man’s order, and I began to order next. However, he then indicated that he would take the next man’s order, skipping over me in the middle. After a short time with no indication that he would take my order, I just started ordering. He did not look at me the whole time. When it was time to pay, one male guest went to the counter to pay first. Then, intentionally, I went up next to test out if he would serve me last. When I went to pay, he instead entered the other man’s bill into the machine and indicated that he would take his payment next.

This did not seem like an accident because it happened multiple times and he went out of his way to serve me last. Perhaps some sensitivity training is required to ensure that all customers feel welcome and safe in this establishment. I won’t be returning and I’ll make sure to spend my money in places that treat me as an equal.

A diner. Staff was slow. The food was what you expect from a mid-grade diner. Portions were generous.

Horrible service. Staff refused to refill water even when asked to do so. Staff seem to be owner/operators family’s and act hostile if you don’t order a paid drink.

Decent food but just a few too many disappointments... Current prices are a fair bit higher than the menu in the photos here on Google (Mountain Man Breakfast is $22, not $17); my daughter's egg had 4 hairs in it; the 'hash browns' are simply sliced potatoes; my two 'medium poached' eggs came one soft and one hard; service was 'functional' rather than friendly. It's possible we just had an unusual experience but that's all I can base the review on.

Terrible burgers and very bad customer service... We don't have Good foods or experience there. 😒😒😱😢

It’s everything you would expect in a breakfast diner joint. Great breakfast, good portions and friendly service. Definitely recommend it

Downgraded both in service and quality!

A big downgrade in quality and service. Went to eat there today. Surprised to see it nearly empty as any other time I’ve been it’s been hopping. Service was weirdly slow and waitress seemed bored. Eggs were runny and undercooked. My plate was garnished with ⅔ of a strawberry and melon slice. Potatoes were rubbery. Had to ask for a coffee refill and despite the place being nearly empty it took the waitress ages to refill it. Coffee was stale, watery and burnt tasting. Water came near the end of the meal even though it was requested when we ordered. There’s been an obvious change in ownership and the quality and consistency of the food has disappeared completely. A big disappointment.

We were traveling through and hadn’t intended on stopping here. However, my mother in law gravitated towards the diner menu, as she doesn’t like a lot of types of food.

We were seated right away but had to wait 10 mins before our surly waitress coming over, despite there being only 4 tables when we arrived. I had to ask her for waters. She treated us like we were a nuisance (for being paying customers).

The food was delivered quickly and edible for 2 of us but fairly bland. My MIL however, found her beef dip to be disgusting and couldn’t eat it.

Had to ask 5 times to get silverware and water. Food was OK. If you've been here in the past is not the same as it used to be.

Mountain man breakfast was pretty good. They don't seem to offer real maple syrup but the plate was very nice with a bit of Berries and cantaloupe. Definitely nice portion. They would get 5 star if it wasn't for the undrinkable coffee. They are either re using coffee beans or the machine and pot are never cleaned.
