The first thing I noticed once seated at Lil-T's cafe was how filthy the window was by my table. The second thing I noticed was the hearty layer of dust and crumbs on the window sill. Thirdly, the ragged door mat and floor were far too dirty considering I walked in five minutes after opening. None the less I ordered French toast with ham hoping the food would be better than the diner's cleanliness. I was wrong. The toast was dry as though not properly saturated in the batter. It was also bland for there was nothing I could taste other than eggs and milk. A standard French toast dip would have at least a little cinnamon and vanilla. Not even was there icing sugar on top as promised in the menu. The ham was overcooked and also dry. Another thing I noticed was that the syrup put on the tables was in bottles about 1 liter. As I observed breakfast service I saw that these bottles contained various levels of syrup, which implies the bottles that were used by someone else is now going to be on your table. If I am correct this is a violation of BC health codes. I mean seriously, you will have no idea who the last person was that used it. Was the person sick? Did he touch the rim of the bottle? Did he sneeze or cough with the open bottle in front of him? You will never know..., but you can be sure that if practices are this bad in the front of the diner, the kitchen will not be any better. I will be reporting Lil-T's to the local health authority and most definitely do not recommend that you eat here until the filth is thoroughly cleaned and proper practices are in place.

I ordered 2 eggs, crisp bacon, hand cut potatoes, and gluten free toast. The place was not busy when I ordered. After 30 min., my breakfast arrived. The bacon was burnt, as was the toast; the potatoes were overcooked and dry, and the eggs were cold ... well, lukewarm. I was not up to complaining and waiting for another breakfast as I was really hungry. I ate the eggs, 1 pc bacon, and the unburnt part of the toast. Never again. Im happy for those who have had a pleasant experience there.

Traditional breakfast and coffee, best in town for a hearty breakfast.
We wanted a quick, good, local meal. It took over an hour to get our food for just the two of us. We found tables got their food out of order from when orders were put in. Food wasn't very good at all either.

I was very grateful to Lil Ts for killing the wasp. I am highly allergic and the idiot that complained obviously has no allergy. Teresa was great dealing with the issue. Even other customers attempted to get rid of the wasp. Food was fabulous as always. Coming froma big city it is nice to go to a cafe where they remember you and always greet you with a smile.
Laid back and approachable. Good food.
