We ordered fish and chips and the coleslaw was rotten! They still charge the full price. Not recommending this location at all

Wimpy's Diner is still hands down best place for Breakfast & Lunch & even dinner. They've changed their menu. They now have fresh 🍑🍓 fruit, crepes & vegetarian options. Their omelettes are delicious.
They've got a breakfast special menu under $10.00 up until 10:00am. The staff at this location are amazing.
Their prices cannot be beat.
They treat you like family.
If you haven't gone to Wimpys give them a try you won't be disappointed. Love the booths!! They still refresh your ☕ coffee and are always so attentive.
It's a great 50's diner feel.

⭐⭐⭐☆☆ We visited Wimpy’s on a Saturday morning around 10 AM for breakfast. We’ve been here before and always left happy, but this visit was just okay. We both ordered the Twist breakfast — it was pretty good overall, but the potatoes were cold, which was disappointing.
It wasn’t busy at all, which felt unusual for a weekend morning and, honestly, a bit telling. The bill came to $40.48 including coffee, but with tax and tip it was $58 — not exactly cheap for a basic breakfast.
We’re usually fans of Wimpy’s, but this time fell a little short of the usual standard. Hopefully just an off day.

This was our first and definitely LAST time at Wimpy in Burlington. We showed the waitress a picture of the dish we wanted — clearly Cinnabon pancakes — and she confirmed it. But what we got was completely different. False advertising at its finest.
When we pointed this out, the waitress casually said, “Oh, that picture is something else, not what you ordered.” But we showed her exactly what we wanted. Why confirm it, then bring something else?
The plate we received didn’t even match the menu description. We asked again, and she admitted it was missing the toppings, then suddenly came back saying “Oh, it’s cooked inside.” Total confusion, no consistency.
We politely said we didn’t want it — because it wasn’t what we asked for. Instead of fixing the mistake, they brought out the chef, who started yelling at us in front of everyone, claiming it was our fault for ordering wrong! No apology, no correction, no professionalism — just pure attitude.
To top it off, they made us pay for a dish we didn’t touch. No resolution, no accountability. This whole experience ruined my daughter’s birthday, and left us all upset.
Wimpy markets itself as a family-friendly restaurant — but nothing about this experience was welcoming. If your staff makes a mistake, the answer isn’t to send someone from the kitchen to argue with your guests, it’s to take responsibility and fix it.
Attached photos of what we showed the waitress and what we got!
Stay away. There are plenty of places in Burlington that actually understand customer service.

Whimpys is a great place to have breakfast, lunch or dinner. They have a large selection of foods and great 50s atmosphere.

I've had lovely food in the past from here but new owners? Who knows but just dropped $36 bux for an inedible meal. Won't be back. Thanks Skip Canada for only crediting a small portion of this.

This was the only restaurant that I have been to in Burlington where they did not have a seniors menu and did not allow me to order off the kids menu. As a senior with a smaller appetite I appreciate the restaurants that cater to a smaller appetite. I will not be back as there are many other restaurant choices for seniors. Time to cater to seniors Wimpy's!
Great value breakfast.best sausage and good coffee. Large portions

If I could give my experience a zero I would. Today, myself and 2 friends attempted to have lunch at Wimpy's around 1:00. One of my friends is disabled and uses a scooter. I had called prior to going and confirmed they could accommodate a scooter. We immediately were met with rudeness and disrespect from the waitress. We had not even found a table and she started saying loudly the scooter had to be moved due to fire codes. My friend had managed to move herself onto the bench seat only to be told she needed to move her scooter. I asked if the waitress could move it for her, she said no, we could move it outside. The waitress seemed to be going out of her way to make this experience difficult and undignified. I don't know if this is a lack of training or where the problem lies, a customer should always feel they can ask for assistance. We asked for help and were promptly denied. It's shameful a person with a disability was made to feel humiliated and embarrassed. Trust me when I tell you, this did not go unnoticed by the other patrons in your establishment. A happy customer tells a friend but an unhappy customer tells everyone.
