50 Best Breakfast Restaurants near East York

“First time dining at this place and I really enjoyed everything about it. Especially the ambiance. It’s a great diner feel with the red booths and checkered floors. The service was excellent. The food delicious. I can see why this place is busy. It’s a great neighbourhood spot to bring your friends and family and have a great meal together.“

“The Service was great but I will never order the pancakes from them again, I was undercooked and dorothy on the inside. I told our waitress and they brought me a new one and It's same thing, either they don't communicate with the kitchen or the people who cook the pancakes just don't care. Eventhough the waitress has rectify the issue and asked me if I want to order something else but everyone already finished eating so end up didn't get to eat.“

“The owner/chef used to be the head chef at a fine Italian restaurant so all the dishes are good and some are exceptional - like most of the soups from the soup of the day and the breakfast dishes.“

Definitely one of my favourite spots!“

“We had a great experience today at Stacked Pancake & Breakfast House! All of the staff were very attentive and the food was awesome!!“

“This is an addendum to my last review. We are here again less than 2 weeks from our last time. Again we had to order Tom's special breakfast. It's so good at a very reasonable price. First starting with the generous slice of orange plus another kind of fruit. Crispy bacon cooked to perfection. Home fried potatoes that are crispy on the outside and soft almost empty inside. Eggs cooked perfectly and toast fresh and delicious. What a bargain!
Previously:
We had the Tom's special breakfast. It was fantastic. The potatoes were the best we've ever had. Fresh and crispy. It's very clean in here. We ordered at the counter but they delivered it to the table. They're fat and friendly here. All the food that I saw made my mouth water. The phone beside me had a BLT with a fried egg. I noticed that he couldn't finish it because it was so big and took the other half away with him. This is a great place for breakfast and lunch. We will definitely be returning.“

“Classic diner vibe, classic diner menu. Value can't be beat - this 2 pancake, 3 egg, 2 sausage, 2 bacon (plus homefries) breakfast was only $15 and absolutely massive. Service was fast, efficient and friendly - highly recommend for all your breakfast needs.“

“Amazing food, incredible service! 12 of us came for lunch on a Saturday and Cagla welcomed us with a warm smile and super friendly service! 10/10 all day long!“

“Good food and friendly service.

Came back to update my review to 5 stars, been to wake a boo for breakfast quite a few times now and it has never disappointed. The avocado Benny is my go to breakfast and the avocado is always perfectly ripe and the coffee is delicious.“

“It was my first time there, as I am not from Scarborough, but met my friend who lives nearby. We both had the peameal bacon breakfast. It said 8 oz. of peameal served. It came with 4 super thick slices. I'm thinking more like 10 oz. minimum!!! Potatoes were grilled, not deep fried, and my eggs were perfect!!!! Great server!!!!! I will go there again just for a road trip!!! One of the best breakfasts I've ever had. I highly recommend!!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐+!!!!!!“

“The sandwich I ordered (Meat Lover) was super delicious! Staff are super friendly! Would come back anytime!“

“Had a spectacular birthday on Sunday. Seon was super fabulous, friendly and did not disappoint. The French toast was incredible, delicious and the presentation warrants one needs to go again and again. Second visit and both times the staff was exceptional and willing to please. The overall vibes and service 5⭐️ Will be back.“

“very good attention. and good prices“

“The Best Breakfast I’ve ever had. Huge portions , great price , friendly & attentive staff. The meals are to die for😃. It was a great bday treat , great time with my sons and my man. Highly recommend this place 🥳🎂🥂“

“I only leave reviews for what i think is outstanding. I live out of town and was at St Joseph's hospital for a few days for family member. Just googled restaurants near the hospital... and WOW what a find! Interior is lovely. Cozy. And the food was spectacular. I had the Laal Mans Combo (spicy curry goat with rice roti and very small salad). The goat was amazing! I like spice but not super hot and it was perfect for me. What also amazed me, strangely enough, was the rice. I even had to ask what spices they used in it. I was surprised by the answer but I'm not going to give away their secret. Service was fab too... but I went quite early so the there weren't a lot of patrons.“

“Great food, great drinks, great prices, and great service. Will definitely be going back next time I'm in Toronto!“

“Breakfast is the important meal of the day and we like to eat our brekky here at Sunset Grill because, they have delicious breakfast menu, very filling and the staff are friendly. 😊👍“

“We had a great experience today at Stacked Pancake & Breakfast House! All of the staff were very attentive and the food was awesome!!“

“Just had a delicious breakfast sandwich and very good coffee here.“

“Had to stop in for the dill cream cheese. Enjoyed it at a friend's over the weekend. Since I now live in NJ, I can't find dill cream cheese. Also couldn't resist the chocolate babka. Incredible amount of delicious chocolate throughout the loaf.“

“Montreal style sandwich was a 10/10
Turkish breakfast platter was a 9/10 since it was good but they only put half a bagel?
AC on but door is open, outside patio
Watermelon hibiscus 7/10 for my friend but I would rate it a 3/10. It’s not sweet at all, nearly flavourless, and you barely taste the hibiscus.
Lemonade 1000/10 but maybe because I’m a sour girly?
Chefs have high hair up but not in a net which is not my favourite but that’s okay! No problems with hair in my food.

Recommend it to anyone walking to through Kensington!“

“I think it's a good yummy place I do think the potatoes should be smaller so they cook all the way through the seasoning is delicious 🤤 and the sausages try a different brand they and taste a little off the coffee is a little harsh also and I have been here more then 3 times the people are wonderful“

“I had been craving breakfast there, since it Re-opened and my son brought me take out from them a few weeks. ago., variety of fruits Presentation is beautiful and Very generous portions. My stomach is too small for the portions. I probably would've finished it all if it was in Childs' portion.“

“You’ve got to try the bacon here! 👌 It was incredible. The biscuits were fresh and really tasty, and the staff did a fantastic job. Everything was great overall! The only thing I’d say is that the coffee could be a little better. 🤞 Still, keep up the good work! 👏“

“Friendly, makes you feel welcomed, great customer service and yummy food! 😁😁😁“

“amazing place it's good to try“

“First time in Toronto and we tried this cute little restaurant. We got the classic breakfast and the breakfast sandwich. Both meals were reasonable priced and were delicious:)

Our waitress was super sweet as well.
Would totally come back the next time I visit Toronto!“

“We had an amazing experience at Eggstatic Waterloo last weekend as it’s newly open! The food was absolutely delicious even every dish was bursting with flavor. We ordered the Eggstatic Steak & Eggs, Eggstatic Tomato Jacket, Classic Middle Eastern Breakfast with Hummus Foul Bowl, Blueberry Pancakes, and Belgian Waffle. Everything was perfectly prepared and beautifully presented. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, offering great recommendations that we truly enjoyed. The service, atmosphere, and food were all top-notch. We’ll definitely be returning soon!“

“You had me at Eggs Benny. A breakfast so good- we even hear about it in Muskoka. Great service. Awesome selection but it's the Benny for the WIN. Thank you for being open on Christmas Day.“

“I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Hadrian, the manager of OEB Breakfast Toronto, since the restaurant opened in March 2022. He’s an exceptionally down-to-earth and kind individual who goes above and beyond to ensure every customer has a great experience. Over the years, I’ve witnessed him handle even the most difficult situations with professionalism and grace. Hadrian’s photographic memory is remarkable—he never forgets a customer! Beyond the restaurant, his generosity shines in our Liberty Village community. Whenever there’s a community event, he supports us with gift cards, which is always appreciated. Under his leadership, the OEB Breakfast team is friendly, the service is impeccable, and the menu keeps getting better and more creative. The community loves what Hadrian and his team bring to Liberty Village, and we hope to continue supporting OEB Breakfast in return. Thank you, Hadrian, for everything you do!“

“Our go-to spot for breakfast after a night out in Toronto. Cozy vintage vibes, perfect hollandaise, delicious apple slaw, and the best waffles we’ve ever had! This morning we also got to try the pancakes & sausages with our go-to orders — no surprise, they were absolutely delicious. Already looking forward to our next visit 💛“

“Visited Eggs Smart with the family and really enjoyed our experience. As soon as you walk in, you feel welcomed, and the service was attentive throughout.
We tried their new Protein Breakfast, which was packed with protein. The Southwest Scrambler was another favourite.
The kids had the Classic breakfast and Chocolate Chip Pancakes, and both were a hit. If you have a sweet tooth, the Berries & Cream French Toast is definitely worth trying!
A nice spot for a family breakfast or brunch. We’ll be back to try more from the menu!“

“Love this place for breakfast 🍳. Good lunch and dinner menu as well... bacon 🥓 and eggs 🥚 breakfast.“

“Always wonderful food and service!“

“Nice spot on the Danforth if you want a light lunch. There’s a small patio. Cafeteria style. We ordered a BLT and a grilled sandwich - black forest ham and Swiss cheese. They were both tasty but a little on the expensive side for simple sandwiches. The food was good so we’ll visit again and definitely recommend to others.“

“service its good yummy food love it“

“Love eating there with my daughter and son-in-law!“

“My husband and I went to Eggsmart on Avenue Road just south of the 401, Toronto. We were greeted and seated right away. Coffee and water came immediately and was most welcomed. The menu is enticing and easy to use. Food is presented in an attractive manner and everything tasted delicious. Our server, Alex, was friendly and highly competent at his job. Definite management potential.“

“Excellent service! Super fast. Friendly staff, and most importantly good food! :)“
